You would need two mid-high A+'s to get a 45. I would say dropping anymore than 10 marks in exam 2 and about 4 in exam 1 may be pushing you getting a 45.

A low A+ may definately become a high A+ for SAC's, depending on how strong your cohort is!

So far I'm averaging around 38/40 on Exam 1s I've completed, and on exam 2s I lose around 2-3 marks.
Given my SAC marks are a mid A+ (stuffed up my application task), what kind of study score would I be expecting?

Mid A+, High A+, High A+ = 43-48

If it is 2-3 marks on exam 2, I'd say closer to the 48 on Gerrysly's prediction.

thanks, so that means the maximum marks you can lose in both exams altogether is 10....but is this estimation accurate???

Say you get full marks on Exam 1 and have near full marks SACs. How many marks can you lose to get 48-50 raw?

Considering less than 1% of people get 100% on Exam 1, you could probably lose 5 marks and get a 48. For a 50, probably 0-2 marks.

I know for Methods last year a guy at my school got a 50 and only lost 1 mark on the exams so dropping only a couple of marks should get you the 50 in Spesh
