Hey I'm just wondering what I can get in spesh. I have about a C to C+ sac average in a really strong cohort and am wanting to get a B for both exams. What kind of score would that get me a 30 raw? Also how much higher would a B+ for the exams push me up?

Usually a C+ across both exams is ~30, so a B would be low 30's..
2010: Business Management [47]
2011: English [44]   |   Chemistry [45]  |   Methods [44]   |   Specialist [42]   |   MUEP Chemistry [5.0]   |   ATAR: 99.60
UMAT: 69 | 56 | 82 | = [69 / 98th Percentile]
2012: MBBS I @ Monash

A B+ might get you a little bit higher, but not much

You're doing methods now, so i'm guessing youre familiar with the normal distribution, essentially thats how your scores will be standardised
so in the middle part, you can improve quite a fair bit, but not gain much in your raw study score, its more where youre near the top that improvements really count

but if you get a B+ youre proabably looking at around a 35 possibly (instead of around a 32 with B's) - but mind you, that scales to well above 40
