Rough manual method:

Check what grades you got, and check then check the mean for that GA. If your GAs are pretty much the same as the mean, that should be around a 30 raw SS. Obviously, the higher/lower you go from the mean, the higher/lower the study score will be. A+s are generally 40+ raw

This thread (strangely enough) might give you a better idea: http://vcenotes.com/forum/index.php/topic,7222.0.html

I'll enter them in for you and print screen. Then you can see what I did and try it with other subjects.

Firstly ... high, medium or low    C+ B+ C?

EDIT: see next post.

All grades in the upper ranges (high C+ B+ and C):



All medium:



All low:



All are raw scores. When scaling kicks in + (approx) 10 lol.

Keep in mind that 2008 may change.

SAC marks could be moderated up or down depending on how your cohort went in the exams, so don't get too bogged down by a prediction! :)

GA1: SAC
GA2: Exam 1
GA3: Exam 2

Want me to switch SAC marks with exam one?

I think low 40's. I've heard of someone dropping 8 over both exams  (last year) and getting 43. However, by all accounts exam 1 this year was harder than last year and exam 2 was slightly harder...so possibly mid-40's but I still think low 40's is likely.
With scaling you will most likely get 50+, which is a great achievement! Nice work.
