They mark the oral and written together, so based on last years cut off, you needed 348/400 to get an A+.
( I'm only guessing here but maybe written /75 and oral /25 and they mark each one 3 times? - I'm guessing that since written = 37.5% and oral = 12.5%)

I didn't do too well, wasn't sure about that one the reading and responding in chinese ( 2 questions - 15 marks).
Slacked off all year as well, so I've got shit sacs, probably shit performance on the oral as well.
:[
How about you? how did you go for sacs/oral?

Lol yea that 15 mark question.... i just practically copied the first paragraph for the first question then copied the second and third paragraphs for the second question :P. All my friends did that too. It was so weird.

Oral i reckon i did pretty well... but i know i got marks off for pronounciation cos i have a cantonese accent. Sacs so far have been okay... not particularly bad but not good either - average around A. 

Its gonna be so hard for me to get over 40 now! i need a 40+ in order to do uni extension. Fail.

i thought the exact date was like lunar calendar the 15th of August


The second question , i first thought that i should copy the whole second and third paragraph (i am doing SLA)......i thought it would be weird for an advanced student to do that .......there were 2 main points in each paragraph so i compared the first with first and second with second..............

WOW  so many of u did the plastic bag.....yer i did 5 mins plan and ended up doing the question about that you are a consultant for year 12 student for future career and encourage them to do teaching  haha......................coz i hv not much idea for the plastic bag
