50 in vis comm????

[D27RII]

Hello everyone

I am going for a 50 in vis comm this year which i kinda need for a 99+ ATAR so that i can do MED next year. I hear it is quite difficult and that we cannot afford to drop a single mark. Is this true? If you or anyone you know has got a 50, can u please tell me what we have to get and how many marks we can afford to drop?

So far i am glad to say i haven't dropped a mark along with another person in my class. However i am worried about the exam and doubt ill get a 100%....

cheers

yeah me too, I want 50 too XD
Like I got high A+'s for all SACS but am super scared about the exam - did a few practices and only average B+ ><

hm i think we cannot afford to drop a single mark in the exam. Im pretty sure we cannot drop a single mark across the whole course, but if we full mark the exams then our SACs get scaled up anyway.

Yeah its true, cause your study score for VisCom&Design, is ROUGHLY made up of 33% unit 3's result, 33% unit 4's result and 34% of the exam (please correct me if im wrong, cause my teacher tried to explain it to and i drifted off >< too complicated) so if you didnt obtain 100 for unit3 then basically its not longer a 50...

But dont get discouraged! I got 60/60 17/20 and 18/20 for sac 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Just more motivation to be more viscom prac exams

Hi, I got a 40/60 for my unit 3 folio, 15/20 and 15/20 for the two other SACS and a 32/40 for unit 4 folios. Is it still possible for a 30+ if i get a high A or low A+ for the exam?

ha lol most definitely. For your coursework u are looking at a B-ish grade and if u get an A for the exam, u should get around 35-37 for your SS.
which btw gets scaled down to about 32 :S
