No, they don't, but since your exam is marked by 2 people, if they differ by a mark on a question, it's sorta like you getting a half mark.

Yeah, but I'm just basing it off Japanese so it might not be the same for all LOTEs , but would probably be consistent I think.

(I don't know this for sure, but I have never heard of half marks in VCE and don't think they exist tbh (?) )

Also, it's easy to get caught up in predicting marks and technical stuff, but just try to do as well as you can I think
Good luck  :)
