Does that mean the average is 39.55? So if I get 35, I'm below average!?!?

The scaled mean is 39.55.

Tbh the only reason why you got a 35 despite an A+ in the exam is probably because it was a low A+ AND your cohort is crappy. :S

@OP Don't worry about it, Chinese is one of the most competitive subjects out there, hence the scaling...

Each individual part of your Written Exam is compared against that corresponding SAC, and the SAC marks are moderated accordingly.

if you assume that then we'd all get crazy scaling for english, but most raw scores of english are scaled down
