All you need to know…
An ATAR will be calculated from 5 General subjects OR 4 General subjects & a VET Cert III & above subject OR 4 General subjects & an Applied subject. ATAR assignment requires successful completion of an English subject
ATAR - ASSIGNING A TERTIARY ENTRANCE RANK
Subject results in General subjects (academic) will be based on student achievement in four summative assessments — three internal assessments and one external assessment that QCAA sets and marks. Subject results in Applied (practical) subjects will be based on student achievement in four internal assessments.
ATAR - ASSESSMENT IN YEAR 12
ATAR
For most General subjects, the internal assessment will contribute 75% to the final subject result, except in mathematics and science subjects, where it will contribute 50%. External assessment will be in all General subjects, but it will not be used to scale a student’s internal assessment result. Instead, the external assessment result will be added to the internal assessment result to arrive at a final subject result.
