Test yourself now! New multiple-choice questions for HSC and School Certificate students
The annual update of the Board's very popular Test Yourself multiple choice practice test site is now complete with more than 5000 questions now available online.
Many new multiple choice questions have been added to the existing pool. The new additions are drawn from the 2008 Higher School Certificate examinations and School Certificate test papers.
Every HSC subject that includes multiple choice questions in its exam is represented, as well as all six School Certificate test areas.
HSC subjects include Biology, Chemistry, Legal Studies, Business Studies, General Mathematics , Tourism and Personal Development, Health and Physical Education.
The Test Yourself quizzes can be long or short, taken from just one year's exam papers or from a mix of years stretching right back to 2001 - each user decides the number of questions they want in each test.
The practice test site is one of the most popular areas of the Board's websites, particularly in October and November. Tens of thousands of Year 12 and Year 10 students set their own quizzes to revise their knowledge and practice multiple choice skills, answering many millions of questions online.
Parents, teachers and others are also free to try the online practice tests and see how their knowledge stands up to the test - are you smarter than a 10th Grader?
