English study score and sacs

[TheEagle]

So idk if I'm meant to post here but if for some reason I don't perform as well in an English sac (oral presentation) and manage to get rank 1/2 in my other sacs, would this affect my study score if I end up being ranked in the top 10 where the ppl above me are fairly good English students
Also how much is the oral presentation worth in sacs?

I ended up with a 50 in Eng., even though I got 65% on my oral SAC ahahaha - don't fret!! I went to a low-ranking rural government school, too, so anything's possible! Was ranked first, though

That's nice! You reckon the oral sac is heavy relative to the other sacs?

It's worth 40% of U4, as opposed to TR/AA being 30% of U3, so yeah! It's definitely worth putting effort in given its weighting (easy marks, comparatively).

Do you believe a 45+ is still possible if I'm ranked 5 given the people above do well in the exam? I have a feeling I am going to mess up the oral but do better in the other sacs

Definitely! Even if the above students don't do amazing, 45+ is still possible for you if you can score 9's for your essays (maybe throwing an 8 in there somewhere).

That's a relief Thanks

Historically the oral is marked easier than other sacs for most schools (not all though) so do try to max out your score there.

For 45+ scores given the weighting of sacs/exam being 50:50 you need both a great exam score 51+/60 approximately and a high sac rank/scores. Sac ranking is super important because I have seen students with exam scores that are equivalent to mid-high 40's but a poor sac ranking means that the study score they get is only low-mid 40s.

If you are rank 5 and everyone above you does well on the exam you should be fine
