Will a B ruin my study score?

So far in my SACs I've got a low B and a high A, just wondering how much this will effect my study score??
my school tends to mark harshly and we have a strong cohort :)

Hey osporth. :)

SACs are important, but they're definitely not the be all and end all. Any one SAC in isolation will unlikely have a huge impact on your study score. And, as you've identified, there are other factors in play (such as marking method and strength of cohort). As such, I'd try not to worry too much about your raw marks, because they ultimately don't mean too much - it's gradual improvement over the year that will see you hit your desired study score. :)
