During my first sac I did terribly :(, only 75%. Is it still possible to get a raw score of 40+?

Yes. It's your [rank] that matters, not [mark]. Regardless, A+ exams will bring your SACs up :)

There's one member here who used to go to my school - he basically flunked the SACs but only dropped one mark on the exams and got a 46.

No point stressing over ranks and SAC marks now, you've completed the course. All you can do now is wait till the 17th.

If the top score is 75% -> you're Rank 1
If the top score is 76% -> you're Rank 2

etc.

All that matters is that you're highly RANKED. Hence, regardless of difficulty, you should be able to obtain a high rank because everyone will presumably find it difficult.

The boys are exaggerating... I didn't "flunk" anything >.>

Anyways 40 is definitely possible with any SAC mark (unless you get like 20%), just do really well on the exam
