English study score of 30+

I'm just wondering what type of results it takes to get a 30+ in English assuming the cohort is medium in strength. Any help would be much appreciated.

I got a 34 with A A B. I averaged 80% first semester and 79% second semester. Those would have been scaled down

My exam was pretty shit (500 words for Lang, 700 for the other 2)

averaging high C+/low B for exam and SACs is usually for about 30.
for anything 30+ it's low B average and higher.

We had a strong cohort (highest SS was 47) and I got a 30 through,

averaging a C+ in SACs (somehow miraculously they became an A for unit 3 and an B+ for unit 4) and I got a C+ for the exam.

Now I put in zero effort throughout the year and only got a C+ for the exam by having nightmares and cramming like there was no tomorrow (if it weren't for that I would have probably got an E for the exam).

But yeah if I got a 30 then anyone can get a 30.

uhms well i ended up with a 39 A A+ A - Unit three was pretty much a mixture of A's and B+s with 1A+ and 1 B and unit three was mainly A's with 1 or 2 A+'s
My cohort wasn't to strong, we had a few students that were quite good and scores well but the bulk of the year level was average. there were no A+'s in my year level for the end of year exam's

I received a A A A+ and i got a 39. To be honest it is not that hard to get over 30. I was terrible at english.. I use to sit at my desk for 2 hrs + trying to write a one hour essay and it wasn't until i put my head down a few weeks before my exams and kept going at it that i finally BLOSSOMED  :crazy2: .. At my school we only got indicative grades for all our sacs and you get a "Very Good" being the highest, Good, Satisfactory, Borderline and Poor. I received all Satisfactories and a Very good for the Oral but our SAC conditions were exactly like exam conditions (i assume most schools adopt this approach).. which meant we werent able to see the prompt or have the text or have notes in the SAC which i thought was good. I think it would be safe to assume that these Sac marks were about a Low B+ to a high C+. But due to moderation, and most of my class and school receiving a A to A+ it got lifted up. Also i think if u receive B+ or higher in any school but totally gun the exam your looking at low 40's and your sac marks being scaled up. Hope this helps!!! I think you'll be surprised at your score at the end of the year.. i know i was   ;) OH YES and at the end of the year my practice english exam scores were about a 5 - 6 out of 10 for every essay
