Title: 40+ SS
Post by: King_Crimson on November 06, 2020, 08:42:08 pm

was just wondering what exam scores i would need in order to obtain a study score of 40-45?

Ranked 9th out of 135......top end is very strong

Sac Average of 94%

How many marks can i drop on exams 1 and 2 for a 40+ SS?

In further maths you can usually drop 1 mark for a 50 and then after that 1 mark lost = 1 study score lost

Does it matter which exam you drop 1 mark in?

I believe the exam 1 marks are more valuable given both exams are equally weighted but exam 1 is out of 40 and exam 2 is out of 60.
So you are better off losing marks on exam 2 but it probably isn't something you need to be thinking about.
