Study score for bio.

Hey guys!

I really wanted a study score above 40 for bio but after my sac marks for unit 3 i don't think it's possible. for unit 3 i had 3 sacs.
on the first on i got 85% , then 70%, and then 74%. the first one counted for 10% of unit 3 and the other ones were 5%.

So basically my question is do i still have a chance of getting a study score above 40? Btw i go to a selective entry highschool :P

Thanks

Since everyone at my school is extremely smart, therefore i will have a lower mark which leads to a bad study score?

It's not just your ranking in the class, it's your ranking in the class relative to the spread of the class, which in itself is relative of the spread of the class scores on the exams.

Having smart classmates won't detract from your score. If you get a B, but those around you score wise are getting As on the exam, that B will become an A.
