@HenryP why do you keep saying you're bad at chemistry on the question megathread, with those scores? O_O

LOL you're pretty observant. I just put it there as sort of a disclaimer since I don't want people basing stuff solely on my answers just incase I'm wrong.

What about A+ sacs, high A mid year and low-med A+ end of year

based on the grade distribution for chem 2010:

exam 1: a high A places you in the top 11-13 approx
exam 2: a low to medium A+ puts you in top 10%-4%
SACs: I can't say because i dunno how hard your school sacs are, and your SAC scores get adjusted up and down

So overall may you could get a study score of approximately 38-42? getting a 38 means you're in the top 14%, getting a 42 means you're in the top 5%

Any idea for Medium/High A+ mid years, ranked 1 of pretty good cohort and a really high A+ for end of years?
Thanks for any help.

Exam 1: A medium-high A+ places you in the top 5-2% (approx). I got a medium A+ for midyears and my tutor told me a score like that could easily yield a 45 (top 2%) if the end of year exam is also around the same mark and my tutor is an examiner.

Rank 1 is definitely good, esp with a good cohort

Exam 2: really high A+ for end of years would place you in the top 3-0.5% potentially.

So I reckon you could get anywhere from 46-50.

As a guidance, last year, a guy who got 50 raw lost four marks in the first exam and 2 marks in the last exam

Hope I've helped!

how about mid-high A+ sacs, 69/72 Midyear, mid-high A+ end of year?

What kind of end of year score would I be looking at for a 50?

What would I need for final exam to get above 40SS for Chem, if I got A on midyears and am probably a B+ to A for sacs?

A low to mid A+ I think. Borderline A/A+ won't cut it.

A high A+, but your SACs should get scaled up a bit, what are you /100 for U3 and U4 DisaFear? If 85+, mid-high A+ for U4 exam should do.


edit: kinda contradicted funky, oops. I may be wrong then :P

When I say low- mid I mean from the lower part of the mid range (not low A+). This is difficult to express. But I reckon mid A+ is enough for 40+

And that would be a raw score of 40+? Scales how much?
I don't know, pi, what I got out of 100. I am just guessing I got a B+ to an A for SACs
