Ranked against your cohort. Depends on the difficult of the SACS and the rest of the classes marks. It wouldn't be fair if one school had easy SAC's where everyone get's 100% and another where everyone gets 70%.

Good job on the 100% though!

I'm sort of having a panic attack right now because I really want a 50 in accounting as it's my only 3/4 in year 11.
I got 100% on the first sac but im really nervous for the second sac if I drop a mark.
exam mark is what will really define how high your study score is.

Raw sac scores are pretty meaningless your rank is what is important so you should be trying to get that high.

How many people in your class?

High exam score will be the most important.

High exam score will be the most important.

Two classes which add up to around 45 people and 2 other people got 100%. I guess I should have the advantage because it is my only 3/4 subject so hopefully I can do well on the exam

Don't worry about the actual SAC marks throughout the year, what you want to make sure you're doing is: to improve on your answers and not make mistakes that you previously make. And, that you try to stay at the top of your cohort (top few ranks will do).

Most of your study score will come from your exam score, since this will moderate your sacs up/down as well as provide the majority of your study score percentage wise. I know that psych and accounting are different, but I dropped about 10-15 marks in sacs throughout the year for psych, and yet ended up with a 50. You definitely do not need to have 100% sacs throughout the year to get a 50 :) (unless you're in super competitive subjects, but accounting is not one of them :))

Go for rank 1.

In the exam, you can probably only lose 1 or 2 marks.
