Is a 40-45 in biology unrealistic?

My school is a “good” school last year 70% in SACs scaled to an A+. This years cohort may not be so strong but my unit 3 average is 87% and for unit 4 I think it’ll be above 85%.

If I got 80% on the exam would that be enough to yield a 40-45?

Yeah you are in a good position right now with sacs imo. An 80% on the exam would likely yield a study score on the lower end of 40-45.

Hate to dash your dreams, but I'd say impossible to tell with COVID. This ain't an ordinary year.
(Please note I have no idea about Bio in particular)
I guess just try your hardest and then you can at least know you did your best even if you don't get the score you wanted? [I feel this is not helping...]

I averaged around high 80s for my SACs, got A+ for the exam and ended up with raw 39. I think if your school SACs scale well, and I'd say at least 85% for the exam, then you can likely get above 40.
