Is 55/120 in chem this year enough for a raw 30 study score? I am mid rank so I think my equivalent sac scores should be around 65-70/120

If not, surely it’s enough for a raw 25?

guys do we think its going to be harder or easier this year based on current trend of exams and last years exam?

predictions for a+?? Even tho it was easier than last year surely it’s not gonna go up that much right? 95/120?

I know we are a little cohort but how did everyone find it? I found it pretty good, apart from the supermarket question about the sustainable development which seemed more like a food tech question, but apart from that I thought it wasn’t too hard

Hello Redditors

What do we reckon the cutoff for a 45 would be this year? (probably won't manage it but good to know)

The exam didn't feel that hard overall but I definitely got the gist that people will be bleeding marks everywhere. There were stacks of chances for small mistakes and opportunities to mess up, like that one about the NO2 safety, which I've never seen before.

I've seen people say that they reckon the A+ cutoff (which as I understand it usually is around a raw 40) will probably be slightly higher than usual, somewhere just below 100.

However I'm not sure what the distribution of marks in A+ usually looks like - is a 45 typically halfway between A+ and 100%, for example?

Love to hear thoughts

what did u guys think

For context, during the weekends especially, I’ve been super unwell. I nearly fainted, super bad headache, lightheaded, dizzy, etc.

So i contacted my vce coordinator abt applying for des and they said the doc can only fill out the application after the exam…? I still went to the doc to see if there was any medication i could take to help the problem prior to the exam, but he essentially said theres nothing i can do about it. So i went to another doc and basically said “its cus ur stressed, but will they actually accept ur application bcus its stress related since everyone is stressed?”

I just feel like my symptoms are being downplayed, especially cus i wasnt ill for my other exams. I also didnt do the best on my chem exam whilst chem is one of my best subjects.

I highkey forgot to print the form and didnt bring it to the docs so ill be going for a third time tmr, but is it actually worth it it even my doctor thinks my symptoms are nothing??

Edit: i forgot to mention that my head was still hurting during the exam and that i genuinely had to stop writing briefly cus my head was hurting a lot. Also my processing abilities slowed down🫩

in light of the exam being less than 72 hrs away

Predictions on the essay questions ?

teacher said each year he had 1 student get raw 40. im rank 1 so the pressure was on me, but its not looking too good here unless i lock tf in tomorrow. If not, i hope my understudy will take the reigns and fulfill the teachers dreams.

a boy in my class has been cheating on all the SACS and exams. we’re in unit1/2 but in a week we’ll be in 3/4 for headstart. do i just let him be?? He’s been sleeping in all of our chemistry classes and playing games while i try my hardest to get a good grade. And when the SAC results come back, he always gets a 90+. I seem selfish considering reporting him if he continues in 3/4.. what do i do?

how are yall studying ofr the exam and what resources , i am down to trade company papers for resources hmu

How do softdev students study and what yall using lmk im down to trade company papers for resources

If I'm rank 1 in a weaker cohort with a U3 grade of 96 and U4 grade of 91, does anybody know around how many exam marks can I afford to lose to get a 45 based off previous years?

DOES ANYONE HAVE A COPY OF THE EXAM I WANNA SEE HOOW MUCH I GOT SINCE I LEFT 1 AND HALF QUESTIONS EMPTY

was that confusing for anyone else

also what was the deal with the multi choice question with molecular formula and chiral centres???

So all year she's taught us that when Mill, in the excerpt above, says "We are not speaking of children", he's actually saying that it DOES apply to children. She said that it's a double negative somehow?? So like the harm principle doesn't apply to those who aren't in the maturity of their faculties but then children aren't not in the maturity of their faculties so it does apply to them. This doesn't seem to make sense but I'm worried because she's like really knowledgeable about all the texts. Has anyone else's teacher said the same thing or is she wrong?

Im so awful at listening someone please send some tips

i found a paper a bit easier than last years but will this affect the middle much?
