Your aim is to attain the best Higher School Certificate (HSC) result you can. You should choose courses that you are good at, interested in and may use in the future.

Here's how you can make the right choices when selecting your courses for the HSC:

• Course requirements – know the details of the course you're considering. Find out if there are any major works or performances required as part of the exams.

• Discover the opportunities – each Year 11 and 12 course description can tell you more about potential pathways, including further study, training, and career options after you finish school.

• Check in with your teacher – talk to your teachers about your strengths, weaknesses, and the specific requirements of each course before making your selection.
