Sac Results

[liv]

i didn't do amazing in my first sac, got the lowest in the class which was still an A. I thought i would get maybe a D or C, so i was happy. then my teacher said to me 'yes i know you are feeling very disappointed at the moment, as you should be.'

wow teachers are amazing at moral support.

We had a two component sac. Each part was 45 mins. The 1st component was pretty ok, second was fair hard. I got 36/36 and 30/36 and was absolutely over the moon. I think i'll try putting sac up when i get it bak after the hols. I think it was a rather good sac.

And Liv sifff ur re-doing methods??? sooo shoud've done uni maths instead of methods again so you can blitz spech:) And if that's 43 raw for chinese you probs wont need methods cos you only reli need to get spech gud- which it would be if you do uni maths- and get one other subjects good. (and eng has to count anyway)

i would've done uni maths except i didn't study for the exams properly because i was told i was repeating methods ANYWAYS and so my score was....a little on the lower side.

and whenever i study spesh, my parents tell me 'you don't need to study this. study methods and chemistry.'
if only we could re-do some choices...

We've had one analysis sac, that was ridiculously hard. I got rank 1 with 63%...

wow, that must've been quite a sac

It almost the same situation with the end of year GMA exam we had last year. It was impossible. We have some serious freaks in our year level, not a single person finished, a few came closeish, but only a few. It was brutal.

This isn't a SAC, but apparently at APhO in 2001 the highest score on one of the theory questions was 3/10. The average was about 0.5.

xD our semester 1 GMA exam was like that. There was a linear independence question that only one person in the whole year level got right, and only two ppl got A+, I think the highest mark was 74/80. Semester 2 GMA exam was way easier though xD.

the teacher who wrote our exam, it was his 1st year teaching at our school, previous to that he taught at UoM. Like no joke, the stuff he put on the exam was ridiculous. If it appered on the actualy spech exam in yr 12......it just wouldn't it was that hard. Like, kyzoo remember the stuff Dr He talked about in the last class and said that the q he was showing us wouldn't turn up on the exam cos it was too hard....well the questions on the exam were probs about that standard

Wow must've been so hard then :O Do SACs get standardised? And what was the average mark?

[Yitzi_K]

Ye SACs do get standardised that's why class ranking is so important

[tram]

^precisely, so chill if you get a shitty mark, as long as ur ranking is decent

and soz azure, i dunno what the adverage mark was, tho i'm pretty sure an A was something like 50%

But doesn't that mean being in a school with a strong cohort disadvantages you?

Don't think so; I think your sac mark gets standardised relative to how well your cohort goes in the exam.

Yep, that's basically it.
