Is it still possible to get a 50?

Hi guys,
I was rank 1 but now I have dropped to rank 3 and this is my final rank (our school is doing it on the northern hemisphere timetable). My class is quite small, with around 10 people, but as far as I am aware, all of them are aiming to get around mid-high 40s. I am aiming to get close to 100% in both of the exams. Of course I realise that nothing can be predicted for sure, but as an estimate, do you guys think that a 50 is still possible?
Thanks!

if you 100% both exams (or possibly dropping 1 mark) along with 2 other people in your cohort scoring high 40's you may be able to get a 50.

If the cohort was roughly ~80 people in a selective school environment, what is the range of ranks needed in order to get a 48-50? My school got around 40 40+ study scores for further last year if that helps.

I bet you can get 50 easily if you smash the exam. You have many sacs left and try doing as best as you can (doing Checkpoints, asking your teacher or tutor, asking for practice questions nicely) etc. Also, don't get too self righteous because that will harm your sac scores.... (Which I know you won't do).
