Predict my meth/spec scores please

I messed up both tech assist exams really badly  :'( Before the exams I was hoping for a 50, since I'm rank 1 in SAC's in both maths, but now I let myself down tremendously by cracking under pressure, panicking and running out of time with many questions left blank :(

Methods:
Rank 1 SAC's
Exam 1 prediction: 39/40 (predicted A+ cut off around a 37/40)
Exam 2 prediction: 72/80 (predicted A+ cut off around a 65/80)

Specialist:
Rank 1 SAC's
Exam 1 prediction: 39/40 (predicted A+ cut off around a 38/40)
Exam 2 prediction: 68/80 (predicted A+ cut off around a 70/80)

I need to do well in maths or else my ATAR score will be terrible, since I suck at all of my other subjects... is there still hope?
2012 ATAR - 86.75
2013 ATAR - 88.50
2014: BSci (Statistics) at RMIT
2015 - 2017: BCom at UoM

Thanks, they don't seem too bad... a 45 in methods scales to 48 and a 40 in specialist scales to 51, which will mean I only lost 6 aggregate points. I'd be happy with that.
