27? Jeeze lol.
I've only done some VCAA exams from school (2006-2009.)
I'm in the process of printing out the exams now, and i'll start actually full-on doing the exams tomorrow.

Doesn't matter that much, you should probably ace the detailed study anyway (24 free marks? :D)

How can you be getting 100% in trials and simultaneously be failing SACs? Forgive me if this makes sense for a Physics/Science student, I just don't really understand how anyone could do that.

The questions set for physics sacs are usually harder than most of the trial exam questions. It varies from teacher-to-teacher of course though.

Yep, but it also depends what school you go to. But yeah, we have a motion SAC coming up this week and the previous years' SACs have been ridiculous compared to the exam-style questions. I felt our Electronics & Photonics SAC was just slightly harder than the exam questions, however still all do-able as long as you've been keeping up with checkpoints and what not. The SACs everyone in my school has been doing poorly in have been the EPI pracs that have absolutely nothing to do with the exam (Thank god)

+1 :D

I've done 5. I have a geo sac due tomorrow, after that I'm free to revise chem and physics. Probably do 2 a night thereafter.
The 5 that I have done are all purely sources of questions. I'm saving some to do in exam conditions later on.
