Title: English study score
Post by: nonstop9328 on August 24, 2010, 12:35:09 am: My average mark for sacs are around 55% (around 17/30)
but the average for each of the sacs are always around 14/30 ~ 15/30
so i always get around 2 marks more than the average.
is it possible for me to get 32~33 raw for english??

mid to high B+ for 33 considering your sac marks

35 + would need an A ..

Would it still be okay if I screw up one section (text response..ugh...) and do pretty well in the other two? Like a 5/10, 9/10 and 9/10. Is one section weighted more than the others?

Dodgy question I know, but my fear of english is clouding my ability to process thoughts in my brains.

Thanks

To get a low A last year you needed 7 7 7 for the essays, high A was 7 8 8
Each section is weighted equally but you should really try to pick up your text response.

What would the average mark be for an essay out of 10 in the exam?

From 2009, it is around 5.5 for context, and a bit less than 6 for text response
