Year 12

Year 12 Trial HSC Exams

Year 12 is the final year of high school, culminating in the Higher School Certificate (HSC). This year focuses on consolidating and deepening the knowledge and skills developed in Year 11 across various subjects, including English, Mathematics, Science, and elective courses. Students engage in more advanced coursework, practical assessments, and examinations designed to prepare them for post-school pathways such as university, vocational education, or employment. The HSC serves as a significant credential, reflecting students' academic achievements and readiness for future endeavors.

HSC support

Year 12 is a busy and potentially stressful time for students as they study for the Higher School Certificate and make plans for life after school. As such, a range of online resources are available to help students and parents understand the HSC and prepare for assessments and examinations.

  • Year 12 students can set up their personal profile on NSW students online and access support materials including the HSC exam timetable and answers to frequently asked questions about the HSC.
  • Students can prepare for the final exams by looking at past HSC exam papers.
