What do you want to get on the exam?

There's 11 days to go, how do you think you will go?

I'll kick off, judging by my practice papers thus far, if I had the exam tomorrow... I'd probably get low 50s (either a high A or low A+). Hopefully I can get it up to high fifties by the end of the week.

Here's a little helper for all of you wanting to convert your grades too:

52.5 - 60     A+
48.5 - 52     A
44    - 48     B+
38.5 - 43.5   B
31    - 38     C+
23    - 30.5   C
Judging by the quality of the VN crop I don't have to go any lower than that :P

Hoping for a low A+ or a high A, as well, my biggest problem is I have my course down pat, I just always seem to lose half marks and a mark due to the fact that my answer might not be 'clear enough'. especially seen in some of my prac exams.

I'm not sure if this is because our teacher is very tough, shes a hard marker in sacs. Or I'm just not pulling it in enough.

Anything above 50 out of 60 would do me nicely.

I think I should be happy with anything over 50, but I just can tell I won't be, especially the amount of A+ that are given out...

Hmm, on my prac exam I got a 52/60. So I'm hoping that I'll only get better! So long as I like the questions.... :P

Edit to add: Can they give half marks on the exam?

I got 50/60 on my trial exam at school. raged because i skipped a whole page and a 6 mark question, I only got to the question in time to salvage 2 of the 6 marks :(.
