OPINION: Do you think this is enough for 40+?

[Phenotype]

Well, thanks to an unprepared me I got an A in the midyear exam (disappointed me a bunch); yet I'm pretty sure that an A+ is in the bag for me as I haven't dropped an Outstanding on my SACs this year (91+ on every assignment and test).

I'm fully prepared for the end of year - do you think I could score that 40+? I need an average of 41 study score per subject in order to get into my course.

Mid Year: A
Internal:  A+
End of Y: A+

= 40?

Yeah it is  possible to get 40. I know of someone who got B+ A+ A+ and got 39 if that helps. so id assume 40 is possible.
Good Luck.

In short, yes.

Note, that there are no set grades that guarantee a score of 40+, as it changes from year-to-year. Though, generally speaking... getting 2 A+'s out of the 3 assessments (GA 1, GA 2 and GA 3) would ensue a score of 40 or higher.

Really? So am i guaranteed to get over 40? I got A+ for mid years, and maybe ranked about third now. (first in semester one) and half of our class for A/A+, so i guess strong cohort?

Unless you epically fail the exam on Thursday, you should get over 40.

A score of 40 is I think is an average of getting all low A+'s. GA 2 - which is your SAC grade counts for less than the exam - just don't take anything for granted, that's just my advice. I'll give you an example, I knew a guy who got all A+'s (for GA 1, 2 and 3) and ended up with 39 for Accounting. Knowing the VCAA, anything is possible.

That's my two cents worth.

Good Luck EVERYONE!

EDIT: It really depends on how everyone else in the state goes and the difficulty of the exam. SORRY for the massive response, as many people have asked this question before. As a rule of thumb, as I said... getting 2 A+'s out of the 3 assessments (GA 1, GA 2 and GA 3) would ensue a score of 40 or higher.

yeah that should be enough for a 40+
I got an A+ for mid years (82.5/90), assuming i get a low A+ for SACS and a mark similar to my mid years for my end of year exam, do you guys think a 40 is possible for me?

Yes, 40 is definitely possible with your grades. You could achieve possibly higher than 40 with those grades - could be 41~42 depending on how everyone else in the state goes.

What would this get?
A+ midyear(80/90) so lowish A+
A+ for sacs(mid to high)
A+ for end of year(low again)

Will i get near a 41- 42. I really need this now that i screwed further up.

Aim for a mid A+ and you'll get that easily. Maybe even 43.

What do you think I can get?
A+ midyear (83.5/90)
A+ sacs (96%)
A+ end of year (around 84-85/90?)

Mid 40's. Possibly ~44, hard to tell - but obviously higher than 40.
