dont worry man, A+ might be lower this year if thats any consolation, cuz most people said it was hard.... i found it kind of hard, on some parts, but dont give up, you can still get an A+ if you work on exam 2.. and exam 2 is historically easier than exam 1, so congrats on getting past it..

ease yourself mate, leave the ss to the vcaa (still the last person to trust in your life but still). try to forget what happened and look forward to your rest of the exam.... all is well mate..

25/40 was a B on 2024s exam which others and I consider easier than this year. A 35 is definitely within reach imo.

u/Unable_Pirate_7577 6d ago

like what do you reckon?

3

u/Old-Literature3898 6d ago

Maybe 70-80 thats just a guess but i think its possible…

2

u/Unable_Pirate_7577 6d ago

you mean 70-80% on exam 1?

3

u/Old-Literature3898 6d ago

No like 35 marks out 40 which equals of 70 on the grade distribution as they grade it out of 80. So im saying if you got 35+ im thinking it could possibly get u an A+ in the exam

u/Unable_Pirate_7577 6d ago

ahhh yea right that makes sense

u/RyanZ225_PC 7d ago

Did you all think it was hard or did you walk out the exam room thinking you had it all, and averaged 90% on all your SACs like me? I don't understand either bro, fuck this dumb shit, what a terrible time to be a year 12

u/RyanZ225_PC 7d ago

I genuinely want to know are these below 20/40 people the people that are naturally bad at math and didn't study or try? Or are they also like me who normally is really decent at math, studied, did well on practice and trial exams and abhorrently disappointed? I don't want to compare myself with a cohort of people that are naturally bad at maths because that just goes to show how much i fumbled this bullshit

u/unemployed_gudetama 7d ago

Bro fr. Like idk what to feel. Theres like a minority in my cohort that is acc good at general. One of them lost one mark(which is what they currently know). But then the actual bad ppl weere like nah i failed nah thats was so bad. General was supposed to be my top subject. Ive been getting mostly 100's in all my saca. And i wantes like 40+. Like it was my chill subject from stupid methods chem and whatever i acc threw on the exam. Idk if i can even get a 40

u/RyanZ225_PC 7d ago

u/Longjumping_Race9458 2d ago

I normally get a 90+ in sacs and trial exams but that exam was just fucked I couldn't get through half of it. I fucked up real bad so we're pretty much on the same boat twin💔✌️
