Mate it's better than many may think with those scores. Probs had a scaled A+ not a raw A+.

Thushan, and others, I don't know the cut-off for Unit 4 Physics - I got a Statement of Study Score, didn't get an Exam Marks Statement for Physics. I only got Exam Marks Statement for English and Spesh.

In regards to Economics, the fact that SACs are 50% means a lot, like in English SACs are 50% and no doubt, SACs really bailed me out of trouble, you wouldn't expect a 42 with an exam score of 45/60. (A is 42 to 46)

Spesh: MHS sacs didn't scale for some reason?? LOL  :)

Happy overall, didn't get English. Dropped a mark on the graph at end of exam 2 for Spesh, thought i labelled everything but obviously not  :o

English SS 48
GA1 & GA2: (SACs): 197/200 (rank 1 MHS)
GA3: 1: 20/20 | 2: 20/20 | 3: 15/20

Chemistry SS 50
GA1: (Exam 1): 67/72
GA2: (SACs): Raw: 99/100 (Rank 1 MHS)
GA3: (Exam 2): 71/72

See discussion thread
Specialist maths SS 45
GA1: ? didn't get SoSS
GA2: 39.5/40
GA3: 78.5/80

Reason for <=197/200 in SACs in English: Looking at Sickle's scores (SS 50), Sickle lost 6 marks all up. I lost 5 marks in the exam, so if I lost 2 marks in SACs, i would have lost 7 marks all up and most likely got a 49. Since I got a 48, I must have lost 8 or more marks all up, hence <=197 in the SACs. Since I got rank 1 at MHS sacs, does this mean nobody got >197 in SACs at MHS? Curious to know.

BTW: bombed that Language analysis... :)

Unlikely to get Premiers for Chem though. :)

I find it hard to understand how 39.5 and 78.5 does not get 48+ ? Did you have an abysmal SAC ranking?

Edit: Just checked Istafa's SAC scores. Hmmm....3 marks dropped across exams and 4 marks of SACs only gets a 44. Jeesh...I guess that one needs pretty much full marks for 47+

That pretty much sums it up. I marginally beat Istafa in the SACs as well, so for very high 40's its pretty much full marks.

Ahaha "bloody hell" kinda sums Istafa's and Samad's statements up.

Nup, didnt get any. Don't wanna remind myself about VCE anymore - it's over for me :D apart from tuition

And I dont want to think about whether I'd get premiers for anything - as far as I'm concerned, not getting any this year. :D

GA3: 78/80 (A+ cutoff was 71.5)

Wtf how is that not a 47-49... I'd hate to be someone that got a 48-49 Because there scores would probably be like
GA1: 99/100
GA2: 39/40
GA3: 79/80

Seems so unfair that the people that get 50s arent necessarily the best at the end of the day they were just the ones that didn't make any stupid mistakes or got lucky...
