Predict me some study scores?

[Mao]

i don't get vis comm :S i hate the way it's done. Like wtffffffffffffffff.

the sacs or sats or whatever are worth 66% and the exam is worth 33%. So can ANYONE answer why would the exam score moderate the sac score when it's worth less. that's totally gay.

okay what do you all think i'd get for vis comm someones already given me advice for legal.

sacs avg 90% over unit 1 and 2. Ranked 1 out of around 9. Exam hoping for high A to mid A+.

the reason why the exam is used as a standard of moderation is because it is standard for everyone. This is because school assessments are internal, hence the scoring of students may vary school from school. [This is the case of SACs, but I have a feeling SATs are externally assessed?]
This moderation process is similar to "exchange rate" of currency if you like. A person who got 50YEN may have considerably less than 10USD, even though 50 is a much bigger number. To fairly compare everyone in the state, we moderate the internal standard with the external standard.

also, are you doing VisCom 1/2 or 3/4? because units 1/2 has no bearings on the study-score at all.

I know our folio will be assessed by someone from vcaa (SAT). What happens then?

And I think hard meant 3/4

Not all SATs are assessed by VCAA, only randomly selected schools (i'm not sure of the ratio). But my teacher said if the school was assessed last year (mine was) then there is a good chance it won't be assessed this year.

I think your teacher should know if your school is being audited soon.

I'd really appreciate if anyone could estimate my study score. I'm just doing biology this year, and out of a cohort of 90-100, I'm first for outcomes, I got a very low A+ in the mid-year (64/75, A+ cutoff was 63/75) and assuming I can get a medium A+ in the end of year, what kind of study score would I be looking at?

[melaniej]

With first for SACs, and low A+, a mid A+ on the final will get you maybe 43-45ish?

[ryley]

Awesome, thanks for giving me an estimate, now I just need to keep putting in the work the end of year exam

[melaniej]

Work super hard, get a high A+ and you can get even higher! Good luck!

[ReVeL]

High A: 37

Low A+: 39

Mid A+: 42

Rough estimates.

Am hopin for atleast a 35 in chem...am doin alrite in SAC's, pretty sure im ranked 2nd with scores of around high 80 - low 90's....only got B+ on mid yr tho! can i still manage the 35 with hopefully high A or low A+ on end of yr?...thnx

[ReVeL]

Not certain for sure but you'd PROBABLY need at least an A+ to get 35 or over.

[curry_in_a_hurry69]

[Mao]

your teacher.

[AppleXY]

your teacher.

lol fyi, me and mash (the 69 guy lol) come from a hole so we only get a very small amount of exams (or none at all) which are actually current and relevant to the actual study design.

So if anyone who has '08 chem exams, send me a PM and I'll trade you some of my exams ('07 hef, mav) for spec and methods. (you better thank me man haha lol jks bro)

Hmmm, just wondering... are these scenario/s possible?
In an unpopulated subject you are rank 1 out of 2 students in SACS so far. The other student doesn't do any work however, so you know you are guaranteed to come 1st. Doesn't this basically mean the Exam is the only real assessment for you and that the SACS are so laughable they don't seem like assessments? That's like half the pressure that a normal student would have. Then if you happen to fluke the exam and get full marks, your SAC score will get scaled to 100% no matter what. Compare this with a high-achiever in a normal class, who has to struggle to maintain their no.1 ranking AND ace the exams.
And what about if you're the only person doing your subject. Would SACS even matter then? Or would VCAA intervene?
