What mark is an A in the exam?

[herbsza]

HI just wondering does anybody know what mark is a good guideline to go by if you want an A in the Mid Year exam for accounting thanks
I mean like out of 90

last year apparently over 79 was A+? (according to my teacher)
well my friend got 81/90 and he got A+

[vidang]

it is dependent on the rest of the state,

Ok cool , well lets hope I can get above 78 for the exam on Tuesday, hopefully an A

78+ is likely an A+. My guess would be that A is closer to 70, although I'm not sure. Without sounding excessively arrogant and conceited (to no avail, no doubt), I've never considered anything less than that. I don't see why you need to either; just do your job properly and push for the A+.

Thats right hopefully the rest of teh state is dumd and i just am at the top

No no no... you're meant to make sure you're more prepared than everyone else, irrespective of how intelligent the state is. Get it right, dammit.

[herbsza]

Ok that sounds like a good plan

Last year from memory it was 79 for A+ and 74 for A.
Depends how hard the exam is and how the state goes, in 2008 the A+ mark was only about 75.
MBA.

I think thats cos the 2008 exam is considered to be the hardest.

'08 was really a tricky business....
I hated it after I'd done it, but when I marked it, I didnt feel to bad (Didnt loose much - although, I finished with no time left too double check my answers !!) - I found it long, for me atleast!

I got 100% on 2008, but lost about 4 marks on 2009. Granted, I was in pretty poor form when I did '09, but I still think it was a little trickier.

sounds like you're going to ace the exam. if i did accounting in 08', i would have definitely lost more than 10 marks.Hopefully they'll won't be cruel and give us a hard one, even though we should be expecting it.
