Be better prepared for HSC exams

2011 HSC exam workbooks are now available for PDHPE and Biology.

These workbooks have been designed by the Board to help students prepare for HSC written exams.

The workbooks contain the exam paper and study resources, including marking guidelines, marker feedback and top-scoring student answers from the 2011 exams.

The workbooks are a ready reference to reinforce student learning. They provide an in-depth look at the features of responses as presented by students under HSC exam conditions. Students can use the responses in a number of ways, including:

  • to test themselves
  • to use as a revision tool
  • to further develop sustained, logical, cohesive responses
  • to organise and develop their knowledge and ideas
  • to have further exposure to the language of objective, short answer and extended responses.

Each year, the Board releases workbooks for a range of high candidature subjects. Other available 2011 HSC exam workbooks include English, Legal Studies and Economics. 2010 HSC exam workbooks remain relevant and are also available.

Exam workbooks for other subjects will soon be added to the Board's online shop including Hospitality and Physics.
