30 is definitely possible, with a C+ Average throughout unit 3 and 4 you will get a 30. Because you did not get C+ for Exam 1, simple logic dictates that you will need a B (B+ to make sure) in Exam 2 for a solid 30.

In terms of a 35, High SAC Averages (A+) And a High A in Exam 2 will certainly do the job

High B+ may be around 33, but a High A and you may be competitive enough for a 35

Yes it's raw (34 -> 40)

A - Sacs
B+ - Exam 1
B+ - Exam 2

Amount of study prior the SAC.. hmm.. 30 minutes

Amount of study prior the exams, 2 days comprising of extracts from 10 different past exams (LOL yea pathetic right?)

I got a B+ also, for my Accounting exam. It's definitely possible for a 40 but it will take a lot of hard work. You will need really exceptional marks on SACS (maybe 95%) and an almost perfect score for exam 2 (maybe lose 3-4 marks max).

I also hated probability dude and I didnt really own the sacs (around 15/20 average per SAC)
Hm.. tips on integration and differentiation? Someone else can fill you in

I dont think getting really high SAC marks is as important as owning the exam. Just have that target of not losing more than 3-4 marks in every practice exam you do and dont look back ;)

Personally, SAC marks to me boost morale and motivation to work harder. For example in Business management I haven't dropped a mark in any of the 5 SACs so I am more motivated to study harder come the exam

But if you can get a 95% average on sacs (or ranked top 5 in your cohort) it will definitely show that you are well and truly capable of perfecting the exam in November and in turn will make you think that you can perfect it (which is more important)

do alot of practice questions.
preferably from cambridge checkpoints or A+ studynotes, just find as many diff. questions as possible and do them, make it become second nature so the majority of the sac can be completed in autopilot..
and yeah, wiht a high A upwards and good sac marks u can easily pull of a 40 in bio... i got very low A+ on the first exam, boredring on A, and managed to do ok..
