"Studying IPT in Year 11 and 12 was one of the most useful and enjoyable experiences during my time at Trinity. Choosing this subject allowed me to study alongside teachers and fellow students who had a similar interest. It also positively contributed to an increased general knowledge of computer and IT processes, which I see as vital no matter which career path you choose.
IPT is different to a lot of other subjects in the HSC course,especially as a lot of the work involved using computers and learning new programs. This contributed to a good balance of subjects during my time in Year 11 and 12 and fitted in well with the other subjects I selected.
I thoroughly enjoyed and took interest in the IPT course and this ultimately helped me do well in the final exams, achieve a successful ATAR and gain entry into the University course of my choice after graduation."
