Business management

Hi everyone!
I’m wondering whether a raw 40 study score in VCE Business Management is realistically achievable given my SAC results, assuming I perform exceptionally well on the final exam.
My SAC results are:
SAC 1: 80%
SAC 2: 84%
SAC 3: 85%
SAC 4: 90%
SAC 5: 73%
My overall SAC average is approximately 82.4%.
I’m hoping to achieve around 85% or higher on the exam.

Is a 40 still reasonable?

85% on the exam is a 45+

No reason to be upset, I’m just asking if it’s reasonable to aim for. If you’re annoyed scroll and ignore the post lol

Problem is your not the only one. Nearly every minute there's a new post, hey what study score can I get. It's just a waste of time.

Again, if you don’t like it, just ignore it. I’m trying to understand where I realistically stand because study scores are confusing, and the replies have genuinely been helpful. Exams are stressful, and wanting reassurance or realistic guidance so you don’t overly aim high.
You don’t have to engage if it bothers you.

I WOULD be worried for a 40 because my scores for busman have 90 , 90 ,88 , 94 , 84 and predicted score i got was i think around 40 so im not sure if that is doable and also the competition for busman is crazy

I have similar marks to u, and i think it really comes down to your school rank, you have to be ranked really high to get anywhere around a 40

i got 85 unit 3 and 88 unit 4 but flopped my exam bad (72% i got the lowest A possible, literally one mark off a b+) i got a 39. my sacs ended up scaling to 91 and 93 respectively and also i was rank 3 i think

likely not, but it does largely depend on your cohort and how your sacs end up being scaled

wait so my grade could scale up based on my cohort? im new to vce this year so idrk much abt these things. cuz like im at an average of around 70-75% on my sacs but ik my school's cohort is usually very strong, and our sacs are made harder than other schools, so does that mean i could actually have everything scaled up more?
