CHEM RESULTS - SS

Got my first chemistry SAC back - 38.5/50. Not too happy with it but the cohort is pretty good and it did pretty crappily overall too (hardly anyone got over 40).

Unless I completely improve my standard of SACs, what kind of study score am I looking at?

cheers guys.

P.S. I'm from MHS so we usually have a strong chemistry cohort.

i dont know. anywhere between 30-50 raw me thinks. dont worry about sacs. Just keep on working. there is no way to extrapolate your sac results to SS. Just work dude.

Lmfao that's a really good score, and lol, you go to MHS, that's an amazing score.


My first chemistry SAC was about a 20/50 (yep I fucked up), but it was still a pretty decent score compared to the rest of my cohort.

You can't really use your SAC scores to predict your study score, as different schools have different SAC difficulties.

This is some solid evidence; my mate from EKC got A+ (dropped about 10 marks throughout the entire year) for his SACs in Physics, got an A on his exams, but 'only' got a 42 as his easy SACs had produced a weak cohort and therefore, his SACs had been moderated downwards while another one of my mates dropped well over 15 marks on his first SAC in Physics, did okay on the rest of his SACs throughout the year, but aced his exams and got a study score of 47.

It all depends on your cohort and final year exam.

But for a bit of fun, I'm going to have a stab and estimate your study score for chemistry to be 44. :)

I'm aiming for 40 lol

ATAR: 33.60


You do realize that in order for us to get ATARs of 80-90+, there has to be people at the other end of the spectrum right?
