busman exam score for study score of 40?

[ataroo]

hi all just wondering what abouts I would need for my busman exam to get a SS of 40..
So far these r my averages and iim also ranked 1 in a average public school
Unit 3 - 96%
Unit 4 - 98%

hypothetically, if i got an 80% in the exam, could i still get away with a 40 or will i fall short. I know the exam is paramount hence why I'm asking considering I've only been able to get 80-85% in the practice exams.
What do you think roughly would be the cutoff percentage for me?

thanks in advance!

Can't really tell with study scores (which sucks) but looks like you've been doing real well all year and your #1 ranking will definitely help. I think as long as you ace the exam (like an A or A+) then your chances of getting 40 and above are looking good.

Last year, the A+ cutoff was 73%. Assuming this is similar to 2017, you should be able to achieve an A+ in the exam.

Being number 1 will ensure that your SAC coursework (50% of your study score) is as strong as possible.

would u know what the cutoff for this years exam would be? If I get an A+ (say an 85 on the exam), but someone ranked lower than me scores a 90 on the exam, would that adversely affect me?
cheers!

The data distributions for this year are determined based on the exam results from this year, so it is impossible to know exactly what they will be.

If you score 5 marks less then some one on the exam, you essentially drop marks towards the overall score used to rank you and determine your study score. Because the exam is weighted heavily (50%), you will likely get jumped overall if the person ranked behind you is somewhat close.
