Achievable 40+ prediction?

Hey guys,
Hope everyone is feeling better today about the psych exam given it's known by practically everyone that even the best in the subject struggled. I'm counting on my psych and bio scores to be above 40 so I can get above 90 in my ATAR. I'm hoping for around a 42-43 in psych and I was just wondering what some of you though I will need in the exam to achieve this score. I think my SAc score will help given I finished on 195/200 for the entire year so hopefully a minimum of a mid range A will get me a minimum of 40 for the exam but I don't believe I dropped more than 20 marks so just would like some thoughts thanks :)

What's your Rank in the cohort doing Psych?

With SAC Scores like that and a 120+/140, I'm sure you will get a 40+

I think within my school I eneded up finishing in the top 5, maybe even top 3 for my school

I don't know how to feel about the exams at the moment to be honest, I'm hoping I didn't lose more than 2 and calculating m known mistakes in my head doesnt seem likely but you never know so what do you think will warrant me a minimum of 40? just need to get some confidence within myself back haha

Its really hard to say what the A+ Cutoff will be. Some people did Extended Response Question 5 the way VCAA wanted it to be done, but others didn't. Usually there are mutual feelings about the Exam, which makes it easier to predict an A+ Cutoff.

I think that those Scores should be fine for a 40+. But at the end of the day, we just don't know unfortunately. =/

I think I did the section C alright, wasn't too thrown by it, I know I screwed up the qualitative/quantitative 1 mark for not reading the question properly and to extinguish my extraneous variales I used couterbalancing but was unsure if that could be used within an independent groups design, but hopefully I managed 11-12/15 section C marks
