No, if your ENTER is calculated too, (i.e. you've done english + 3 or more other subjects) then they give you raw and scaled on the interwebs.


Ah, thank you! I did two 3/4 subjects last year and i wasnt sure if the result they SMSed me was Raw or scaled

whats wrong with bonghead?......Yeah i got a 40 for biol last year so i thought life in year 12 would be easier (and more enjoyable) if i took a subject off. I know its a lazy attitude but i figure you might as well enjoy life

Wait, so if you did 1 3/4 subject this year, u wont get sent your scaled score - just the raw?

Indeed.


um...wait that dont quite make sense
if this year's assessment is harder than next year's, and i got a middle of range raw score, wouldnt that mean i'll be disadvantaged next year because my raw score compared to theirs will be considerably lower?

You only get your raw score this year, but you'll still be scaled according to the year you did it in. You just don't actually get that scaled score until you get your ENTER

ahhhh! thank you! now it makes sense...
i was worried for a minute..

so could someone give me a rough approximation please?

SACs: A+ (1 mark wrong of all 5 SACs, dunno what percentage)
Exam1: High A to A+ (i tried finding the CAS answers, but no hope)
Exam2: A ~ A+ (again, no hope on verification)
the 2 exams i've checked with the non-CAS results, and for all the questions that were the same on both papers i was right...

would that land me something around 48?
btw it's my school's first year of yr12, any bonuses there?

edit, was trying not to be arrogant, but i'm fairly confident i got everything right on both exams...

Maybe 38 raw if you're rocking between A and A+. I'm just guessing though.

Exam 1 what you did is identical to the non-cas one if that helps

it really depends on exam 2, if you secure A+ in all three of them u should be  looking at mid to high 40s raw. considering your sac scores have been really good :)

there seem to always be a misconception about the numerical score you get at school for your sacs. what you get at school doesn't necessary equal to what you may get on your school course work grade.

scoring straight A+'s will most likely give you at least a 42 in maths subjects.
I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER!!

Yeh it looks a bit suspicious(but it is quiet funny).

If you score A+, A+, A+ I heard you can get anywhere between 38-50.
oping for an ENTER of 99+

hey i was wondering if somebody could give me a rough approximation

i probably got an a possibly an a+ for sacs, my first 3 were lowish and then started getting over 95% in all of them - think my school did badly on this exam, in general i think my school is extremely weak but according to vcaa it isnt..
38/40 first exam
65ish/80 second

Your looking at low 10's for those scores, anything higher you'll be very lucky to have missy









JUST KIDDING...yea I like to say stupid things, life's too short not to have fun =P

more like in the range of high 30's to most likely somewhere in the 40's
I believe life is constantly testing us for our level of commitment and life's greatest rewards are reserved for those who show a never-ending commitment to act until they achieve. This level of resolve can move mountains, but it must be constant and consistent. As simplistic as this may sound, this is still the common denominator that separates those who live their dreams to those who live in regret.
