Horrible SAC marks.

Hi all!
The exam period is getting closer, and I really just wanted to clarify something.
If I have done shit on ALL my sacs, averaging from 20% - 50%, how much of an affect does it have on my study scores for those subjects? Say I put in 110% effort for the exam, and ace it, will my bad sac scores have an affect on the study score I receive; will it prevent me from getting study scores in between 35-40? I mean, would it even be possible to receive such a high study score if my sac marks are all fails?

- check the sac weightings, is it sacs 40%, exam 60% of study score?
- how strong is your cohort? If it's quite competitive, your sacs might scale up.
- unit 3 and unit 4 scores are reported separately, if you can increase your marks significantly on the last few sac/s, you may be able to raise your unit 4 average.
- what's done is done, you can only try your hardest from here on. Your scores means that a really high 45+ might be out of reach , but if you do put your 110% into the exam and smash it with a fantastic score, how could vcaa not reward you with a 35-40+?

I haven't done hhd but I did do biology which is a bit similar? Would have loved to do the subject if I could have done more than 6 heheh
