I think other than SACS, I got the same marks as you.  Losing 10 for exam 1 and 9-10 for exam 2!

Except me...
39/40 on exam 1, 68/80 on exam 2
Why does exam 2 have to be weighted twice as much? :(

I went completely opposite of you. I lost 5 from exam 1 and 5 exam 2.

Well, he is referencing at the idea that would coincide with an extreme situation.
Last year that would have given you a middle B.

Ok so I f***** up my exams and I'm a bit worried!
Exam 1: 30/40
Exam 2: 70/80

If this it was similar to last year I don't actually think so. This is a situation where you lose 20 marks, which I think won't get you 35+ unless your SACs are strong or it turns out that those numbers above are higher than reality (as in you scored higher).

Using Paul's method How to Predict your own Study Score - A Guide if you get a high A for SACS, you can still get 37 :P
