Rough prediction?

Hi fellas,
If anyone could give me a rough estimate on what score these results would achieve:

Exam 1: B+
Exam 2: A
Sacs     : B+

Thanks!

Really? Under the impression a c+ for both exams was a 30?
So wouldn't it be 35-37?

It really depends on how high or low your B+ is.

The highest C+ or the lowest B is the average score and therefor equates to a 30.
Let's say only your mid-years B+ counts.
So your marks were between 139-151
The average score was 112.6
So you had 26.4-38.4 more points than the average student.
The standart deviation was 40.6.
So your Z-score is 0.65-0.94
Study scores are a standart distribution with average 30 and standart deviation 7.
Therefor this would equate to:
34-36
So yeah I need to apologize, 35-37 would be more correct.
