STRESSING OVER STUDY SCORE

I've averaged 99% throughout the year, and I've done 30 practice exams (60 if you include exam 1 and 2 as separate  ::) ::) ;D ;D). Can I afford to drop max 1 mark in the exam and still get a 40, I'm really scared I'll get a 39   :'( :'( :'( :'(. PLZZZZ HELPPPPP

Now I feel bad.
I averaged 77% in SACS but aiming to smash the exams and end up with a 40.
Look you don't have to stress fam, just let it happen. 13.5% of students will get 40+ and with the majority of kids stressing out and potentially going to do
bad on the exam, you have to capitalize off that. Aim for 45+ as its possible in your case

He would be lucky to get a 40 if he drops 1 Mark on the exam in total, I heard you have to average 100% in sacs and get 100% in exams to get a 50. I averaged 99.9% in my sacs and am hoping for a 43 if I can hopefully ace the exams :D

I think he means 50.. not really sure how dropping one mark in the exam equates to a 40 study score.

Hahaha. I hardly believe 1 mark equates to a loss of 10 SS points  :P. I am living proof that you will get at least 40.  ;D
As with you, I had a 99% SAC mark (rank 1, that is whats really important).
Barely scraped an A+ (36-37/40) on paper 1 and around 57-58/60 for exam 2.

And I still managed to pull out a 43!  ;)
Aim for 45+, just try to cut down on any stupid errors before November 3.
Good luck!

dw it's what your ranking is what counts and futher is basically 1 mark lost = 1 SS lost
9% get 40+ and I don't think the majority do bad on the exam (it's not possible since VCE is all relative)
