Approximately how many marks in total (both exams) can we afford to lose for a SS of 40,assuming SACS are A+/good rank?

Yeah I'd like to know this too.

In addition, what do you guys think the minimum (raw) study score you could get if you were to still get A+s on all three GAs? Let's say achieving borderline A+ for all 3 assessments - what would that give?
I thought it'd be something like 38 raw but I keep seeing people say "you'd get around 36" and it's freaking me out guys LOL :(

And if you were to get low A+s on both exams and a low A+ for your SACs but have a strong cohort, how much can that impact your SAC score and thus overall study score?

Thanks :)

I think 40 can be achieved with losing around 12-14 marks combined on both exams

May I ask with what approximate SAC grade after scaling? :)

I came out of the exams last year thinking I had lost at least 10 marks, ended up with 46 :) You never know, people usually mark themselves pretty harsh right out of the exam haha

Pretty high SACs.

I got 47, wasnt rank 1, probs rank around 8-10 but really strong cohort. Not sure about exam mark but I think I lost around 5-6 marks combined.

Oh okay, thanks! And grats on that score! :O
Would you be able to predict what I could get if I had low A+ SACs (prior to scaling) with a strong cohort, and low A+s on both exams? >_< Is 40 (raw) still on the table for me by any chance? :P Oh and ranking wise... I'd say around 10 or lower to be honest, but I'm confident that my cohort is going to do damn good.
