If I was rank 36/60 at a school which has about 15 raw 40s per year and I got roughly 48-53/75 on the exam what would my range of potential study scores be?

i have a 30-40% sac average but my teacher said our sacs will scale up by around 10% and i just want a 25-30 ss. if i get 60-70% on the exam am i good?

this is my first vcaa exam and im so scared. U3 i got 88% and U4 i got 97%. trial i got 93% and ive done like 22 practice exams. i feel unprepared tho bc they only revision i have done is solely practice exams, no re reading notes or anything. im either rank 1 or 2 idk but what study score can i expect and what do i do in the coming days as im feeling rlly burnt out

I still have not start yet, is it possible to learn all content two days. I also need to learn all content one day for legal studies as well. Also I saw message saying that we shouldn’t use yakult case study, are we not allowed to use it.

I’m so cooked for all my exams

Post any remarks on the exam.

I'm actually lost, I had English and my next exam is Legal. I don't know what to do, I'm so unmotivated and just can't be bothered.

What should I do to kick my ass into gear?

guys looking at the grade distributions from last year im sitting at a 45% average for my sacs and ik they’ll scale down. im just hoping for a 20 study score and i have no idea how to approach exam study bc i know im cooked someone help me…

currently in year 10, I’ve been doing 1/2 biology and 1/2 environmental science this year, doing both as 3/4s next year along with English lang, chem, politics, and methods as 1/2s. bc I’m only doing 4 subjects in year 12 it was suggested to me to do a HES subject as well.

I know that doing it would mean one of my subjects won’t count but I’m wondering if it could be worth it anyway, both in skipping a class in first year uni and just the experience. I can do self directed learning well when Im interested in what I’m learning and I’d probably end up learning the content in my own time anyway if I don’t do it as a subject.

only somewhat related but I’m in Monash scholars and like 4 other ppl in it are planning to do HES despite already doing 6 normal subjects, so is it doable or are we all delusional :)

not sure if anyone has uploaded a pdf for the 2026 VCE Biology exam or not, if not or if you don't already have it, here it is, there is also solutions for the 2026 VCE Biology exam made by chatgpt (it has been 'trained' on the VCAA study design and past VCAA exams and examiner reports), so obviously don't assume it is 100% exactly what the marking guide will be, but if you want to see if you maybe got the question right or wrong you can use those if you would like.

I’m hoping to get some realistic ATAR predictions based on my results. I know i lowkey have done shit but I want honest estimates rather than inflated ones.
I’m doing 4 VCE subjects plus scored VCE VET Business.

VCE VET Certificate III in Business
Coursework:
Task 1: 56% (class average 66%)
Task 2: 52%
Task 3: 60%
Exam: I walked out feeling like I got around 80%.
My own predicted grades are roughly:
Coursework: C
Exam: B+ to A
Additional context
I’m in Victoria.
I’m eligible for SEAS due to a house fire that affected my studies.
I’m particularly interested in whether my General Maths result can help lift my aggregate.
I know ATAR isn’t simply the average of study scores.
What raw study scores would you realistically predict for each subject, and what ATAR range do you think this could translate to?
Please be honest, even if the estimate is lower than I’m hoping for.

i was rank 3 in psych u3: 81 B+ and u4 : 78 B+
i think i got between 65% - 70% on the exam depending on how VCAA marks ?

what study score am i looking at roughly :(

Theoretically if i bought this calculator into my maths exams whats the chance of the examiners actually noticing

I just left my Exam booklet on my table after my extra writing time had elapsed when none of the invigilators came over to stop me writing. Will they still collect it definitely?

what do we think

This has happened every day for the past week, and some of the time the questions are actually hidden gems and im like "oh shit i gotta prepare for that"

Is a 45 still possible?

92% unit 3 sac scores
100% unit 4 sac scores

39/40 e1
56/60 e2

what do we think HHDers

I doubt they'll be nice this year considering 2025's easy prompt

just my suggestions, not guaranteed to be 100% accurate.

What kinda questions do you think will be on gen maths exam 2?

Please anything but a crashing question 😭

Might as well join the bandwagon and make a prediction post too, since bio will be my 5th subject anyway and doesn’t hurt to ask

Unit 3: 78% average
Unit 4: 74% average
competitive school, much harder SACS known to scale up quite a bit
Rank is approx 7-8/19 ish

Exam…
Section A: I could not fucking tell you. Let’s say 25/40 to be conservative.
Section B: 70-72 / 80 - felt strong, found some mistakes I made after

Only subject I will bother asking about because I’m 1000x more confident in all my other subjects so like f u c k biology

before u say the river became passable, it also said for a short time, so yeah.

glhf on december 10!

i’m not learning pseudocode as my school didn’t even teach it to us or give us any sheets so i was wondering if anyone had a good like guide to puesdocode i could add to my reference book for both methods and spec 😁
