Statement of Study Score or Statement of Examination Marks

[WhoTookMyUsername]

I'm looking at getting one for BIology, but i'm not sure what each one exactly has

What i can gather from VCAA site - SoSS: our score (numerical) for each graded assessment
Examination mark: our score (numerical) for Biology Exam 2 only (with specific mark breakdown).

Which one is better to get?

I got both last year, you're pretty much on the mark there in terms of the information each provides. I suppose which one is better depends on the reasons why you're getting them. If you just want to know your score, for a bit of closure, then I'd suggest the Statement of Study Scores, which will tell you your marks for all three GAs. If you want to go more in-depth, look at what you got exactly right and wrong, then get the Statement of Marks.

Marks gives you question by question marking, whereas study score gives you an overall mark and z-score, go SoM IMO

Wouldn't statement of marks be better?
After all, you can work out your score if you are given specific marks, but you can't work out your specific marks given a score.

it also tells you how your sacs were moedrated

btw, VCAA gets given your school marks, contrary to populatr belief that they just receive the rank

So VCAA decides on the ranks rather than the school admin?

i got a SoM for midyears though, so i'd just be finding out SAC s?

If you get SoM again then you will be finding out your mark for the end of year exam and which questions you lost your marks on.
If you get a SoSS then you will get the mark for your mid-year, end of year and moderated sac mark and also z scores
