lol it sounds easy but then its actually quite hard when it comes to you physically sitting the exam and under exam pressure and conditions, where the chances for you to make careless mistakes are significantly higher.

Very well said.  It happened to me.  Made so many careless mistakes that I wouldn't/didn't make when doing practice exams.

It varies from year to year but apparantly, if you lose 2 marks overall in both exams then you've still got a chance for a 50 and any mark lost after that equals a study score gone. eg. 2 marks lost =50, 3 marks lost= 49, 4 marks lost= 48 etc.

I hope your right rayray!  That means i will scrape in for 50 by the skin of my teeth :)

Pretty much for all subjects - the exam holds the most weight in determining your study score.

can A average on SACs and A+ on both exams get you a 40+?
