SAC marks to get a 50 in further?

[Peanut Butter]

What type of SAC marks do you need to be getting to get a 50 in further? Do all of my sacs need to be 100%?

What type of average is needed to get either a 50 or above 45?

Thanks

the actual marks arent important, only your ranking matters. theoretically you could get straight 60%s in every sac and if that is the highest in your school then you could get a 50 if you 100% the exam. i cant say exactly what marks it will take at your school to be ranked first because each school is different as are different cohorts. at my school rank 1 wouldve required about 98-99%% on every sac, but heaps of people got over 40 whose sac marks were in the 70s and 80s, but i went to a select entry school.
good luck

Spectroscopy's spot on. All it takes is rank 1 and close to full marks on the exam to get a 50 study score. Doesn't really matter what the SAC marks are because they are subject to moderation by VCAA.

Basically, the SAC moderation system will try to adjust your SAC mark based on the other SAC marks of those who performed similarly to you on the exam/s. This is to minimise the effects of varying SAC difficulty across the state. So if you had 40% SACs, rank 1 and ace both exams, and the majority of students who aced the exams had 100% SAC marks, VCAA will scale your SAC mark up to around there also (and you'd get a 50). As another example, when I did Methods I scored around a 95% average on my exams, and VCAA found that most people who got 95% on the exams I did had 100/100 SAC marks, so my marks were scaled up to that. That's (briefly) how I understand the scaling system.

So raw SAC mark doesn't matter to much. If you're really gunning for a 50, ranking is the real important thing.
