I think (please correct me if I am wrong) a mark of about 84-85 scales to be a band six. I assume therefore a mark of about 80 would get something like a mid to high band five?

That is just me guessing though.

There is no exam thoghuts forum for physics yet, although there will be on Monday/Tuesday.

80 would scale up to high 80's, made low 90's, depends how hard the paper is.

You could have just posted in the physics forum.

we wont know what the ranking will be like until the exam is over.

If it's easy like 2 - unit then an 80 will be nothing, if it's hard like the 3-unit then I WILL GO ON A F#*KING KILLING SPREE BITCHES!!!

In 2003, a 56 raw was aligned to 78 and a 61-62 raw to 81

uhuh lol im sure thats more than enough for your >90 aim lol.


70raw in each for me would be enough for 90+, you're probably on the verge of 95-100? lol

good luck :p
