Unit 4

[Spreadbury]

has anyone else started Unit 4? we've finished the courts and essentially the court hierarchy. apparently we're having a sac at the end of term 2 but where's everybody else at?

[sgeorge]

Yep, we finished Outcome 3 about 2 weeks ago ad have since been studying Outcome 1 of Unit 4.

But our SAC for this outcome won't be until about a week after we get back from the holidays.

[Visionz]

Just had my SAC for outcome 3 unit 3.

[andy456]

We have our Unit 3 Outcome 3 SAC on Friday... then we have to do a practice exam the week after 

[LFTM]

Finished the last sac for unit 3 on monday and started unit 4.

[Spreadbury]

where do you think you're at in terms of SAC rankings?

[andy456]

I'm rank 1...

[Spreadbury]

I'm rank 1...

congratulations. i'm probably second, my friend hasn't dropped a mark yet, unfair

[andy456]

I'm rank 1...

Seconds pretty good too.... my cohort isn't very strong but so I don't think it means much being first

[Spreadbury]

I wouldn't say my cohort's that great either. a few do stand out but from what i've heard (there's two different classes) there are a lot of people who'll do badly. and there aren't too many people in my class who do outstanding consistently. maybe 1 or 2 people. I don't like being dependent on my cohort, especially going to a somewhat low-ranked school

[sgeorge]

I'm ranked equal first. Pretty strong cohort so I'll have to try pretty hard to stay up there.

I get what you mean with the low ranked school thing. You pretty much need to be on top or your in trouble . 

[LFTM]

I'm in a really weak cohort, and i mean really weak but theres two people in my class that ace the sacs. I'm not doing that great, stuffed up the constitution sac.

[Visionz]

So many of us are really close, dropping very few marks. My average is something like 94% and Id say im second best in my class but I dont necessarily have the second best ranking. Top 5-10/50 probably. Its all well and good for the other people to memorise one outcome but the end of year i think will mess up a few people. My cohort is reasonably strong. I dont go to really high ranking school but theres a handful of 45+ perennially. If I maintain my rank my results should stay untouched.

[Spreadbury]

can anyone explain the effect of rankings on your study score. i've been told it's about getting another person's exam results but...I dunno, seems weird to me. does anyone here understand the system?
