exam 1 32/40
exam 2 70-73/80
teacher didn't tell me the percentage but told me i am the one of the top students in a moderate cohort of around 50 people.
is there any chance of getting raw 40+ study score?

Thanks a lot! This helped me to overcome my nightmare of failing and focusing on finishing my remaining exams.
Overall, the exam was not bad. Better than exam 1 for me

Hmmm how'd u find it guys?
I think the paper was OK. Just a typo in Section B Question 4 f. i. should be 0.2947 and not 0.2949, other than that all answers look good to me. I'm a bit surprised that they placed a question with an infinite number of solutions with Question 3 e. Also surprised that there was a typo in the exam! You would think that there had been plenty of proof reading to avoid these mistakes.

Yep, it equals the same. Good job  :D
I would think so since it is another form of correct answer.

Oh my GOD I f**king BOMBED lmao

Funny thing is that I got most of the super difficult, top of the state questions, I just messed up on suuuuuper basic crap, like calculating super simple integrals. I don't know what was happening to me, something just stopped working up there??? Maybe I was just pressing my CAS buttons wrong or something??? Either way, it stings real bad ughhhhhhhhhh.

Least I have another math subject to redeem myself with tomorrow, hopefully  :-\

hiiii
do you think a raw 40 is possible with:
- SACs: top 25% of cohort
- exam 1: 36/40
- exam 2: 73-74/80
I stuffed up my first methods sac (worth 50% of SACs), so I was worried whether I could still get a 40
Also, for the transformation question where you find a,b,c,d I guessed a=-1 and b=1 would I still get a mark? haha

Ranked above average in a strong cohort.
GA2 - 32/40
GA3 - 60/80

What SS would I be looking at?

Yes, very possible. In fact I'd expect a 42-46. Large range as we are unsure how much this year's exam difficulty will affect scores.

Consequential marking is available for methods, right? A lot of the questions would have C/S available, but I'm not sure if VCAA award them

Yes, I'm pretty sure that VCAA award consequential marks if a question requires the answer from a previous calculation.

What would my estimate SS be:

Sacs-74 ( top 1/3 of a cohort of 30ish students, weak-avg cohort ( last year had 1 43 ) )
Exam 1- 31-33/40
Exam 2-55-58/80
