Study Score estimation?

I'm trying to estimate my study score for English. I'm a little worried I won't get into University which is really going to effect my life. I'm not the smartest person out there, but I only need an ENTER of 50 to get into my course, so I'm not too worried.

However, I'm particularly bad at English, and I need a study score of 20 in English to get into my particular course.

I just finished my English exam today and sorta worried.

All my SACs so far have been C-'s, C's or C+'s, so we'll average it out as C's, with the exception of my oral presentation which I got a zero on (extreme irrational fear of public speech, couldn't do it).

Based on SAC results can someone give me a rough idea of what I'll get? Preferably someone who had similar results in previous years.

An average of C in SAC's will get you a solid SS of 30.

Depending on how well you did in today exam, it may also either go up or down. As long as you manage to get a D or anything above it will gaurantee you a score of 20+ if not 25 . And a C will definetly get you either a 29-30 depending on the states performance.

Actually... your SAC marks are a little bit below the mean of last years. Last years SAC mean was 66%. So, assuming you redeemed that 0, you're probably gonna have about an average of about 50%. That's in the bottom 20% or so. If you get 45% on the exam, you're not so far below the mean. So you're probably still
around about the bottom 20% or so. This would be a Study score of around 25 (if you are lucky, and not including statistical moderation, which is where they take into consideration how everyone else in your class went)

Unit 3 Sacs: A Average
Unit 4 Sacs: B Average
Exams: I think i did okay.. Not too good nor too bad

What studyscore am i expected?

no-one's going to be able to predict a SS from something as vague as that, particularly since you haven't given an actual guess of what grade you think you're going to get, along with what kind of grade you think you'll get (high/low). also, how well are you performing in relation to your cohort, and how well does your school usually do in english?

Thanks. I'm just really nervous i won't get into University because of English. I have no doubt about getting the required enter score, but getting the required study score in English really has me worried.

I'm really not sure about everyone else in my class. It's mostly full of jocks, but I think most people get C's or higher. Definitely some B's and A's though.

I know the information i've supplied is quite vague but im really worried and just needed some reassurance.

sorry, was referring to mr_tony.

but in regards to you, iRandom, i'm fairly sure that kebaby is correct in saying that anything over a D will get you the 20+ that you're aiming for - your average of Cs and C+s, if repeated on the exam should land you around the vicinity of 27-30ish, which is my guess.
I hope you get what you're aiming for, study score, ENTER and course!

Thank you very much good sir/kind ma'am, I feel a little better already. I guess all I can do is wait with fingers crossed =)

I've an A average for my SACs. If I were to get just say the mean mark, i.e. about 53%, what study score would that result in?

I just want to know what my low study score would be. (I feel as though i performed reasonably well, maybe an A in exam.)

so im sitting on an A for internal thoughout the entire year. did alrihgt in the exam proably a 6-7 in TR, 6 in Context, 7-8 in LA. Anyone want to hazard a guess? thanks

If you get three 7's then that's a low A so i am guessing you're going to get mid 30s for your study score.

What sort of score should I realistically expect? I want to be prepared in case it's below the expectations of my teachers.

A+ on every sac bar 1, for which I got an A.
Aiming for at least an A on the exam, hopefully A+.

My results have been pretty good in relation to my cohort... Particularly my class. But it's hard to tell exactly... We have quite a number of students who don't make an effort in English.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Everyone in the state does this subject.

Probably get like 33
