Chemistry and biology

Hi everyone! I have a question that really needs some answers to it, im quite stressed right now. Throughout the year i have achieved a sac score of about 70% for both bio and chem, but my ranking is about below average in our cohort at melbourne grammar school. Its a strong cohort i think. If i get  close to 100% for the exam, is it possible to get 40? If not, what will i get? Thank you!!

Full marking the exam (although basically no one full marks the biology exam - some drop a bunch of marks and still get premiers) might scrape of 40 but really no way in saying for sure as no one knows what your 70% will scale to. Strong cohort might help a little but it won't completely overturn below average sac scores/rankings.

surely his scaled SACs will be well above state average (MGS!!)
Anyway, don’t worry Rafa just do your best on the exam
