i really have no idea how i'm going to pass english, because i'm very bad at writing.
anyone one else in the same boat?
sac average is around a C+, and i'm hoping for a 30, any chance?

if you get borderline C+/B you'll get 30, realise that a C+ at your school would equate to a higher grade according to VCAA where A+ is ~80%+ usually.
Check out the statistics page of vcaa to see the grades.

Franky, no.

You need an average of ~5.5/10 for 30 raw.

Agreed.
I know of 2 people both averaging B+ for their sac scores last year.

one got approx 5.5 for each and even with a B+ for sacs. only got 31.

the other one got 5/8/7 and ended up with a 34.

You would want
6 + 5 + 6 for a secure 30 I would think anyhow.

31 and 34 raw or scaled?

Just throwing this here.

I went to a relatively good school.
I averaged Cs across my SACs in unit 3.
I average B+ for my SACs in unit 4.

I got 38 RAW for English. It's never too late to try. I have to owe it all to the 3 hour cram session like a month before the exam given by shinny, though.

OMFG shinny ill pay you to give me a 3 hour sesh.

I usualy have good ideas.
But as some one has told me today ( thank god for his presence )
My essays arnt really fluent .. my quotes go for too long ( 1-2 lines) , and my vocab is also low.

I really dont know what to do ( except maybe try to condense paragraphs) in the next 3 days.
If i try to make it condense and direct .. i waste too much time and i go over the time limit

fml im gonna get a 2 for english

I hate life.
