Sacs - 88/100
Exam 1 - 30/40
Exam 2 - 60/80
37-38

Sac: 82%
Exam1: 33/40
Exam 2: 64/80
39-40

Exam 1: 40/40
Exam 2: 74/80
46-47

Sac:100% (strong cohort as well)
Exam1:36-37
Exam2:I'm guessing around 75-80
Anywhere from 44-49 probably.

This is based mainly on last years exams, so the A+ cutoffs might change this year (maybe slightly higher by the looks of it).

But wouldn't the cutoffs be higher? What do you think the A+ will be?

Cutoff for exam 2 will probably be like 5-6 marks higher than last year (so maybe 67-69), the multiple choice was definitely harder but they're only one mark each so it's not like it'll affect the marks heaps (because people can guess them as well).

Can someone predict my score:

GA1: 80/100
GA2: 35/100
GA 3: 75/80
43-44

SACS: Rank 1, Mid A+
Exam 1: ~32/40 :( [this is killing me ffs]
Exam 2: ~72/80
39-41

Ok I'll play;

GA1; top of my cohort (approx 90% for the lot)
GA2; 32/40
GA3; 45/80 (yeah....)

I'm guessing about 33 or so?

You guys are really interested. :P
(these could be totally off, but I am trying to adjust predictions based on this years difficulty)

SACS: 99/100
Exam 1: 33/40
Exam 2: 78/80
42-44

Could you predict mine:
A+ sacs
Exam 1 39/40
Exam 2 78-79/80
48-50

Exam 1: 40/40
Exam 2: 70/80
42-44

GA1: C+ SACS
GA2:25/40
GA3:45/80
30-32

Ok I'll play;
GA1; top of my cohort (approx 90% for the lot)
GA2; 32/40
GA3; 45/80 (yeah....)
I'm guessing about 33 or so?
Yep, around 32-34

Sacs 94 vv strong cohort
Exam 1 38
Exam 2 79
Please and thankyou
48-50

-----------

Zealous, do you think the scaling will be drastically reduced? As in last year 41 scaled up to like a 48 ( I think), do you think this year's scaling will be largely reduced? I think it definitely won't scale above 50, but what about the low 40s, would I get less of a scaling boost?
I think it'll be similar to 2012 scaling, so probably around +5 if you get a 40 (compared to +7 last year). Scaling for methods has been pretty consistent over the last 5 years, it was only last year which was crazy.

Just a random question,
is the 'middle range' a 25 or 30? Looking at the grade distributions most people seem to get C+s, so would this get them a 25 or 30 study score?
