This exam was so weird. People I know who are smart are getting lower marks due to silly errors in Detailed Studies, which has TOO LITTLE questions for TOO MANY marks.

Thats too low, last years cutoff was 82. Since this years exam was easier, it wont move down. You mean out of 90 right??

Yeah it's a bit annoying that Physics MC are worth 2 marks each.

I'm hoping that is the case as well, lol.  But I doubt that is the case.

I think it will be lower. I think VCAA would want a better spread of results than they gained in this exam.
