exam scores for a 50?

hey guys,

just wondering, what kind of midyear & end of year exam scores are needed for a 50 in accounting (A+ cutoff for midyears was 75 or something, so probably the same for end of year)? And assuming you're ranked somewhere at the top for sacs in a fairly strong cohort. Somwhere between high/mid 80s?  :D

Basically, if you are in the top 0.5% of the state, you will end up with a 49-50. So you can probably lose a couple of marks over both exams but that's about it...

well that 89/90 saved my ass and got me a 50. I would say 87 and 87 might get you a 50

The possibility I won't get 25 for methods is continuously looming above my head, too, which isn't helping but yes I shall think positive! Won't let my blunder in the Unit 3 exam continue to get to me either.

Can not let all those trees that died for all my practice accounting exams die in vain!

Just counted, around 35.

Although I must stress I don't follow the 'more exams means more success!' mentality - I simply enjoy the practical aspect (I'm weird, I know) so it never really feels like 'studying' until the occasional long theory questions come along.
