Still possible to get over 40 in bio?

For bio, I got 26/32, 26/28, 26/30 and 30/34 on the sacs for unit 3. Will this be enough if I do well in the exam? Anyone with past experience w/vce bio would be greatly appreciated :)

Yep, and A+ on this exam (and on the unit 4 exam) will put you in good stead for a 40+ raw :)

I do not mean to be rude at all although this may seem so but as for the current moment the SAC scores bear no meaning. They will get scaled against the exam. If you do well in the exam say, high A, mid-high A+ or 2 mid A+ then you'll get that 40+.

English isn't weighted 33%/33%/33%, so not really.
