how many marks can i afford to lose for further if i want to get a 40? cause i heard even losing a couple of marks can set you back far

[lala1911]

180/200 on the exam should get the job done

[Colokid]

so what sac average would be ideal for a 40 study score

[yazza]

how about for a study score of 45?

[brenden]

You'd want like 37/40 on Exam 1 and like 52/60 on Exam 2 with scaled A+s for SACs.

For a 45, as close to full marks as possible on Exam 1, and perhaps 55/60?

[12AM]

SACs: roughly 80-84/100. Scaled to an A+
Exam 1: mid-to-high A.
Exam 2: mid-to-high A.

Study score: 39.

I did this last year as a year 11 at one of the weaker schools (27 median study score) in the state. However, I was ranked 1 across the year level, hence the scaled SAC marks. So yeah, I personally lost a hell of a lot of marks during SACs throughout the year. But a score of 40+ is still very, very achievable. Don't get let down or worried or think that you're screwed if you stuff up a little bit. The only time you can't do anything else is when the last exam is over. Until then, just keep trying to improve.
