GA2: B (medium/high) - scaled sac score
GA3: A+ (very low) - exam 2

Medium A in mid years.
Medium A+ in SACs.
High A+ in the end of year exam yielded me over 40 (will not mention what it was) but not by much.

That would get you higher than 35 for sure. Maybe 37.

Because:
Two medium B+ for both exams and a medium A+ for the SACs can get you a 35.

you can get three A+ and get 39

What about with scenario 2?

GA1: A+ very low, borderline
GA2: B medium (scaled sacs)
GA3: A extremely high (pretty much A+)

i just want to how much such a sac results can impact SSs. this is all completely hypothetical by the way

thanks for all ur input

sacs are 1/3 of the final mark which is used to calculate your study score, so they're as important as each of your exams
