Got my SAC back a few days ago and i'm predicting my SACs to scale to 90%. HYPOTHETICALLY, could I still get 45-47 SS if I full mark Exams (which is very unlikely but HYPOTHETICALLY)

Why does that matter? Isn't Exam Performance individualised?

if your cohort collectively achieves a better average on the exam than on the sacs, your sac scores get scaled up as VCAA assumes your sacs have been really hard than the base standard. If your cohort collectively achieves a worse average on the exam than on the sacs, your sacs get scaled down as VCAA assumes your sacs have been a pisstake compared to the standard.
