2011 Legal Results Thread

Well done! Awesome score. Make sure you thrash the next SACs too.

I'm equal 1st (at the moment) with 3 other people... ==' Competition kills me LOL and this is in my class alone (there are 3 other classes)

Hey! I totally forgot about this thread :S
I did my AOS1 SAC a few weeks ago, 23/25 (92%) 
I'm sorta happy because it wasn't what I was expecting (in a good way) and disappointed, 'cause I lost mark on stupid mistakes! (Not stating the amount of seats in the Legislative Assembly when outlining the structure?!)

I'm not sure what Rank I am... 3 I guess? Only one person got 25/25 and I'm not sure if anyone got 24. The average from what I can tell was ~18

Ahhh another Legal SAC (on the Constitution) coming up in 2 weeks!

Is anyone else's school splitting the SACs for AOS1 in half? We've done one sac already, but we've got another one in a week or two, and they combine to form our AOS1 score.

Yep, our school did this too. AOS 2 SAC will be in two parts as well.

[eeps]

I know werdna, nacho and gs's SAC were spilt up into two parts - I've only recorded what they got for their first part. My SAC was in one go. I suppose it's better having it spilt into two parts rather than doing it in one go. Good luck! I think I'm the only one where my SAC wasn't spilt up.  =\ Ohh, and a quick update on my SAC result... I was able to scab one mark, so I ended up getting 48/50 - equal Rank 1 with one other guy!  :p

[werdna]

Hahahaa how did you scab the one mark?

And what....?! How is your AOS 1 out of 50? Ours is 20 and 20, so it's 40 all up.

My teacher wrote "more detail" in relation to a question about the "Separation of Powers"; I originally got 5 out of 6 marks for that question. I disputed it - I showed him my friend's answer which got the full 6 marks (my answer was pretty much like his) and after re-reading my answer, he gave me the one extra mark. I've got no idea; different marking schemes? In any case, I think my school's way of doing SACs still equals up to 100 marks for Unit 3. My school follows 25-50-25% for SACs - if that makes sense.

Just received my mark for the first SAC of AOS1 - 100% It was top mark in the class that I know of, at worst it will be equal top mark (obviously) xD

Would anyone else be interested to see other people's SACs? It seems that there can be quite a variation between the SACs set, as well as teacher's marking, which can affect what score you get, and how it relates to other people. I was thinking it might be useful to compare a question or two from people's SACs, and answers that got full marks?

I don't know if that's possible for people (or even me, the teachers keep our SACs until the end of the year), but I was thinking it might be helpful. Anyone else got an opinion?

[werdna]

Got my full AOS 1 score today - 20/20 for part 1, and 20/20 for part 2! Equal first with one other person atm.

[gs]

Getting my actual marks tomorrow. Told four people in the class who got an A and I was one of them. Was about 3 people in the other class who got A's too, so 7 all up on just about an even tier. The last SAC of the term will decipher the pretenders and the superstars (aka me).

I'd be willing to share my SAC; I'll post up my SAC questions tomorrow. My teacher marks our SACs quite harshly and hence, no one got 100% for the SAC in my year level. Note, that whatever you get on your SACs for Unit 3 and 4 will be moderated at the end of the year - when VCAA calculates study scores. SAC marks can be moderated up or down depending on how well your cohort performs on the exam - that is, everyone in your school doing Legal Studies 3/4.

Attached is a copy of my school's SAC questions for AOS 1 - my school's SAC questions are probably really different to others. Out of interest, I lost a mark on Question 9 and 13 to get 48/50. The average was 35/50.

[izzykose]

I got my marks for SAC 1 today.. 27/30 = 90%.. Lost them because i forgot when evaluating i have to give strengths and weaknesses... i just gave strengths.. ah well :\

edit: Class Rank 3, top class mark was 28/30.
