Why has everyone finished except for me? We JUST started probability last week. Who really cares what a distribution is anyways :P

yeah, my teacher sucks anyway so it's no big loss.

how are people going according to how much each sac counts for? isn't it like, 40% for the core, and 20% for the modules?

my scores have been...

core: 91/100 ---> 40% is  36.40
bus maths: 52/52 (haven't got it back yet but it was pretty easy, just had to use the TVM solver) ---> 20% is 20
matrices: 41.5/60 ---> 20% is 13.83
graphs: 81.5/100 ----> 20% is 16.30

that adds up to 86.53/100. im assuming this is how it works haha, i might be wrong though. but if im not, that's an OK average i guess. i want 50 so :P

Core: 100/100 ---> 40%
Networks: 31/35 (i think it may be higher but not sure) ---> 17.714%
Matrices: 45/48 ---> 18.75%
Graphs & Relations: Haven't done the SAC yet lol.

i'm just going by what you have said lol.

Hmm, well assuming it is your last module...no, it is not bad :)
You should be able to finish it maybe by the end of this term, if not...maybe 1st week of next term.
Just make sure you do lots of revision on these holidays coming up and you'll be fine  ;)

Core - 39/40.

Trigenometry and Geometry - 20/20.

Graphs and Relations - 20/20.

Networks - 20/20.

Total: 99/100.
Desperately need a 45 in Further... *fingers crossed*.

Thanks :)

Looks like your going aight as well.

Second time will do the trick I'm sure, even though 41's a really good score.

If you don't mind me asking, what grades did you get for SACs and the two exams and did you get a statement of marks for the exams?

Be interesting to see how many marks you lost to get a 41.

Post by: *Roxxii* on September 14, 2008, 09:58:16 pm
Nahh, i didn't get a statement of marks :(
Yeah, it would have been interesting to see what i actually got.

and I can't remember the exact SAC scores from last year...but it was something like...
Core: 37/40
Number Patterns: 19/20
Graphs and relations: 13/20 (ROFLZ epic phail :P )
Networks: 20/20
