What sort of marks do you need on the exam for spesh paper 1 and 2 to get a 46 raw study score. Also what do you need for a raw 40. This is assuming your in top 10 at a relatively strong maths school

I'd say
To get 46 raw:
Exam 1 -  40/40
Exam 2 - 74/80

To get 40 raw:
Exam 1 -  40/40
Exam 2 - 65/80

hmm nah not quite

generallly between 40-50 it's 1 mark lost = 1 SS lost
exception would be dropping 1-2 marks and still getting a 50.
4-5 marks would be a 46
and 10 marks would be a 40.

Is spesh more competitive than methods?

yes, it's reflected well in the difference of scaling

I was rank 1 for my school, got 38/40 exam 1 and blew out on exam 2 with 65/80 and got a 38 if that helps

I only got 17/40 on the exam. I've been averaging at around 70% in my sacs and I'm ranking first in my cohort, the class average for sacs is probably about 40-50%. I need a raw 30. What do I need to get on exam 2 in order to achieve this, not that I think I can.
