thanks! Yeah same thing happened to me, for a theory question out of 3 one of the examiners gave me 2 and the other gave me 3. I guess one just didn't like my explanation quite as much as the other haha.


LOL. I didn't know that the VCAA gave half-marks in Accounting. DOES your 87.5/90 round up or anything?... or does it remain as 175/180...

Yeah it's just 175/180. There is no half marks when you think about it, i mean we like to consider it in relation to the actual amount of marks on the exam but they only ever consider it out of 180, so yeah my mark is 175. Which i was pleasantly surprised with.

No they don't give half marks, it occurs when the marks given by the examiners (always whole numbers) differ by an odd number, when marked out of 90, eg one examiner gives 90 and one gives 89, and the average is 89.5/90. However any mark out of 90 doubled will be even and therefore there will never be a .5 in the mark out of 180.

GOOD LUCK TO YOU AS WELL. :P (Although improving on an A+ is pretty hard!)

GOT MY STATEMENT OF MARKS!!!

:( 85/90

Mid A+?
I was hoping for 45+ in Accounting, so how many marks can I lose in Unit 4 exam and still get above 45.
I'm guessing 50 is probably out of the question now LOL.

85/90 is an awesome mark! Probably not possible to get 50 even if you got full marks on the EOY but you can definitely get a 45.

What is your rank like and how strong is your cohort? These both also help to determine your study score.
