SAC scores so far
« on: April 15, 2010, 04:56:47 pm »

How is everyone going in regards to SAC marks? I have completed the first 2 SACs and am on 48.7/50.  :) Made some silly errors but so far so good. If I maintain this sort of mark, what SS whould I be heading towards? Also what was the cut off mark for an A+ in the mid year exam in the previous years?

we've only had one sac and it was worth 50, but only on the first 7 chapters of the neville box book. have another next friday then 2 more after that this semester. i got 50/50 so i was happy although it was a very easy sac.
Going on this score you could still practically get any score so long as you killed the exams. you dont need a flawless sac record for a 50.
The A+ cutoff on last years mid year was 158/180, although thats marked twice so it translates to a 79/90.
You can see all the grade distributions for 2009 here http://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/vcaa/vce/statistics/2009/statssect3.html#H3N1002D
good luck!

Nice work guys, Im ranked 2 in my class, 0.4 behind rank 1. I've made a couple of silly mistake too, one that Im not proud of is forgetting to write where GST refund is classified in one of the theory questons. I mentioned 'as a current asset' but forgot to write 'in the balance sheet'. I couldn't believe it, kicked myself for hours over that.

Really? you've had no SACs? with mid year exams just around the corner. It would be quite the task if you covered all unit 3 topics in one gigantic SAC.

I'm ranked equal first with one other guy. Think I'm sitting on 49.5/50 for sac 1. Our teacher has broken the first sac up into three parts though.

How on earth do you get a score of 48.7? Lmao seems like the marker didn't feel as if you should lose 0.5 marks, but instead, only 0.3 :P Haha such precise values XD

If you continue, and ace both exams, there's no reason why you couldn't get mid-high 40s.

But i wouldn't worry too much about SACs, they say its 33% of SS but it doesnt really seem like it with all the different cohorts and moderations.

Yep, if you ace both exams you can do very well.

I had rank 1 for SACs; 85.5/90 on exam 1 and 87.5/90 on exam 2 to get 49 :)
