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
