To those interested, A+ cut off for Mathematical Methods (2012) for Exam 1 was 36.5/40. For Exam 2 it was 61.5/80 which suggests that it was quite a difficult exam, seeing as you could lose 18.5 marks and still achieve an A+.

Can someone explain to me the difference between a Statement of Study Score and an SoM? I'm considering getting it.

SoSS- shows your number result for the 3 GAs and also the mean and standard deviation for each GA.
SoM- shows what you scored on each question of the exam and the range of scores for the grade you got

I'm really confused with my chem unit 4 exam result. The a+ cut off was 60.5/72..and I believe after very harshly marking myself that I got about 57-62/72 for the chem exam and yet received a B+...it seems as though the A cut off would have been around 55/72 I think..do you think I should order a statement of something...and which statement  do you think would be of most relevance to help me out. btw I received a ss of 34 for chem with the following grades...A B+ B+... :-\

So I got my som for biology today but there was a bit of confusion... Well on the front page it said I got 48/50 for short answer, but on the back page it summarized with a final score of 84/100 for short answer (ie 42/50).
Has this happened to anyone before? Should I contact VCAA?
Thanks!

Hey Yellow, well done. Did you get the same from each assessor marking each piece? What mark did you get out of 60?

The mark on the front page is for the multiple choice. You would've got 24/25, and then they doubled that to give you 48/50

Wow, lucky you spotted that. I had a friend who got their atar in 2010 and it said 87, but his study scores didn't match. Then they changed it to 91, then a few days later they realised it was 96.something.  I mean, vcaa have had long enough to get it right! Haha.
English A+ was 47/60 btw. I got 3 9s from one assessor and 3 8s from the other. So annoying! Haha.

You would've had six assessors for English  :P

The A+ range for Further Exam 2 was 105 to 120 (52.5 to 60).

Turns out I lost half a mark on one of my worded answers. Not sure if it's worth fighting for (don't know what my chances are of winning, either), just for the shot at a Premier's.

A+ cutoff for Business was 101/130...little lower than normal but nothing suprising.

Ok with regards to my end of year chemistry exam grade I'm having quite strong doubts that I actually received a B+(which means I lost about 16-20 marks on the exam) do you guys think I should order an SOM just in case they did give me an incorrect grade or?
