Study score

[riceiscow]

I am a bit concerned about my study score for lit as i was aiming for around 38 but screwed the exam

hoping for maybe a B on the exam now, and my sac marks are around 88/100 for unit 3 and about 96/100 for unit 4. i am part of a fairly strong cohort (of my class of 25, atleast 6+ should get 40+) and i was ranked 4th.
so my new aim is a 35 and in everyone elses opinion, can i achieve that with a B on the exam?

thanks!

A on the exam gets you at least 36, so I'll say a B would be aroun 32-34

Hi riceiscow,

I'm not an expert in this, but I would say you should be able to get a 35-38, maybe more! It really depends on how strong your cohort performs altogether and if you're ranked highly, you'll be pulled up with the rest of them remember? (Or so I think it goes.) Getting 184/200 is pretty good, bear in mind. The key thing to getting a good score is being ranked highly in a good cohort and having done reasonably well in your SACS; if you're ranked highly, they might scale up as well. If your whole cohort does well, that could go up again.

But I'd go with acrimony's word over mine

What texts did you do anyway? It's really subjective to assessor and how everyone performs.

Haha thanks. I would be grateful with anything over 35 really. i am now preparing hard for interpol to compensate.
i did Atonement and Two Brothers and i had a really bad day. the passages were fine but i just couldn't do anything. very disappointing. kind of wish my class wasn't basically forced to do Two Brothers, even though usually i was pretty good with it.
