Mid-year Exam Results

[Mao]

1) it depends on which subject (competition in that subject, as well as weighting of each GA for that subject)
2) school/cohort performance in the exam (statistical moderation of SACs)
3) it depends on where the grade sit (high A+ is very different to low A+)
it is very hard to make a prediction for study-scores, you can only try to do as well as you can.

but based on gut feeling:
A, A+, A+ might be low 40s
A,A,A+ might be high 30s

[lacoste]

if the A was high,
and both A+ was high,
is there a chance of a mid 40's?

Would a study score of 30-35 be possible if I got a C+ for the mid-year but finished with 92/100 for unit 3 sacs?

depends on how your school goes in the exam
it appears your ranking is fairly high (?), if you have a good cohort [that scores well in the exam] the moderation process will be in your favour, and you should be able to get in the 30~35 range
also keep in mind that for subjects with mid-year exams, SACs are totalled from unit 3 and unit 4, and together count as a single GA. so you'd also want to keep that average up for U4 SACs

The school did really crap

I have a question, how does the rest of your cohort doing good/bad affect your score? I'm just curious.

something along the lines of: http://vcenotes.com/forum/index.php/topic,581.msg12582.html#msg12582

i.e. your SAC GA score depends largely on the cohort.

Question, my accounting class has a partnership with another school, my teacher only recieved the results for our class. Does this mean that VCAA will only check our class against our results in SACs or will they also check the other classes (partnership class)?

if by partnership you meant your class is in a joint cohort with partnership classes because of small class-sizes, then yes.
VCAA will treat the partnership as a single cohort, and the SACs of all the classes will be moderated together (hence the exam scores for all classes will be used).

Oh dear. Oh well, thank you Mao!

Hey i got A+ for chem and A for physics.

I also got A for sacs for physics......

So wat are my chances of getting a 40 for physics cuz i wanna root this subject.

My sacs were mid A and exam was mid-high A....

so if i end up with

A A A+ A+ can i still get there?

ganges: how did u get ur statement of results so quick.

did u get it sent to school or went to vcaa?

[melaniej]

How about you just try your best, and see how you do.
Don't worry about the possibilities of getting certain scores.
The less time worrying about it, and the more time studying, the more likely you will 'root' this subject.
No-one can actually predict your precise scores from just letter grades!

I got mine today, I ordered it a while back though

[lacoste]

what exactly is on the scripts?

do they have marks . comments. or ticks or crosses on them ?

[Ahmad]

It has how many marks you scored for each question.

I wish they stated why you got the question wrong... Many of us are curious... But I guess that is what inspection is for
