Further Exam Scores

[Linked]

Hi, I can't seem to find VCAA statistics about previous exam performances, so I was wondering whether any of you knew the answer to my question.

Hypothetically, if you have a perfect SAC average in Unit 3 & 4 (100%) and stand at the top in your school cohort, what percentage would be required in the exams to get a 50? SAC marks don't count towards the final study score as much as the exams, for they are not a true indicator of how we stand in the state. Then what should that student aim for to get a high study score?

I realise that each mark lost affects the overall score significantly, so I'm worried about how well we need to do. If you could help me out, I would really appreciate it!

My friend last year also had a 100% average in the SACs.
He said he lost 2 marks in the exam and ultimately got 48.

Thanks! That could be good and bad news, I guess
Hold on, were those 2 marks including both Exam 1 and 2? I had no idea it was THAT easy for your study score to drop down from losing only a few marks!
Yet that means that there's at least some hope to get over 40

That's how much it affects the high end, obviously if you lose 10 marks (for example) it wouldn't equate to a study score of 40, it would probably be more like 42-45 or something. Further is hugely competitive at the top end, so a few marks off the exam makes a big difference to study score.
