So I get the same scores as oglow and he gets 39-41 while I get 37-38?

because oglow's score can be 35/40, 75/80 or 35/40, 74/80 or 34/40, 75/80 while yours are 34/40, 74/80

Wow, so 1 or 2 marks in the exam can be worth 1 or 2 study scores? That's crazy! Is it only like this for spesh? For all my other subjects, I can lose about 15-20 marks and still get a 40 raw.
It's only this bad at the top levels because all the best students do spesh.
2011: Arabic [31] IT Applications [36]

it is also the case with further and methods (moreso with the former). to get a 40+ in a maths subject requires rear perfection due to the generally unambiguous, black/white nature of the exams.

That's more than I'll get for exam 2...
I'd say about a 37.

For a 25 study score, you would need something like this:
Exam 1: 20/40
Exam 2: 35/80
SAC's: C
2012 ATAR - 86.75
2013 ATAR - 88.50
2014: BSci (Statistics) at RMIT
2015 - 2017: BCom at UoM
