do your SAC's get dragged down if you get high SAC and low exam>?

its still confusing but i got full marks forr all my SACs this semester :) so i've got nothin to worry about

they may, but here is the best advice I can give you:

Don't worry about it. Just do your best and let whatever happens happen. In the end you won't be told that you SACs got dragged down or not (well you might find out) but you will get a number.

Just forget about it and study, Head down now!

No, if you are ranked 1 in the cohort and if it goes as you say and you end up getting the highest exam mark amongst all your peers then there will be no moderation.

What about me?? :)

Ranked 3rd for English - mid A+ for each Unit.

Exam - a C or D grade.

How will my scores be moderated?

Likely to have a far greater effect on your cohort than on yourself. The top-ranked students internally need to be the top-ranked students on the exam, or the ranking goes icky during moderation.
