20 it's obviously really low, but that's all i require, so throughout year 12 what kind of marks do i need to obtain on the sacs and exam. and how hard is it to get 40+

Not sure if trolling or not  :o
[2015] Further Maths Aim: 50
[2016] English Aim: 35+, Chemistry Aim: 40, Physics Aim: 40, Specialist Maths Aim: 40. Math Methods Aim: 40

Hopefully you and I achieve our goals!

if you end up with A+ sacs after scaling and an A+ exam, no matter how low, the minimum score you can get is a 39

for 20 i would say if you do work in class and do absolutely 0 work at home you would get like a mid high 20s, so im not sure about a 20 flat but it would be quite achievable as long as you still know whats going on in class

I have a friend who scored a 28 last year in further. They did next to no homework and just relied heavily on their notes. Their SAC marks were (roughly) 80, 60, 90, 85, averaging out to an overall mark of 70-75% (c+). They were in the upper middle rank in a moderate cohort. They got 50% on the first exam and 70(ish)% on the second. The overall exam mark was a C+. So I'd say a 20 study score is pretty easily achieved. Hope that helps!
As for a 40+, you need relatively strong SAC marks and you really don't want to lose more than 5-10 marks across the two exams.
Good luck!
