Class combonation also plays a role in determining the attck bonus. These are often referred as Base Attack Bonus or BAB. Generally speaking Soldier/Guardian has the best BAB while Scoundrel/consular has the weakest BAB.

I prefer to have a more balanced fighter/jedi, thus my favorite class combination is a 5/15 Scout/Guardian, with high STR and WIS rating.

FYI, Jedi Guardian is more combat oriented while Consular is more force power oriented whereas sentinel are something in the middle. If you play as a consular, don't expect a high "to hit" rating because of the lower BAB rating. To compensate that, I would advise you to invest on the "dueling" feat because it grants you extra "to hit" bonus when fighting with only single one-handed lightsabre. The drawback of this is of course you would have refrain yourself from fighting with dual lightsabers or using a double bladed lightsaber.

However you still can choose to be a two handed fighter with the "two-weapon fighting" feat, which reduce the penalty of using a lightsabre on the off-hand. But with a lower BAB rating, you will have a tough battle against higher level enemies.

You can also do a little homework and read on the following faq found on gamefaqs.
