Last year, i think you could lose about 8 marks over both exams to hit 40. That being said, 09 was incredibly easy. If the exam is hard, you "may" be able to get away with losing 10-12 marks for 40.

You've got to be shitting me. I usually lose 4-5 marks on exam 1 due to stupid mistakes, and about 10 marks on exam 2 due to stupid mistakes. I'm going to be so pissed if they cost me a 40  :tickedoff:

yeah 15 marks overall would be something in the 30s... gotta be pretty optimistic to get 40 with that. you have 9 days :)
