HSC Distinction Courses 2008

Distinction courses will be offered for study in 2008. Distinction courses are challenging university level HSC courses especially designed for high-ability HSC accelerants. These courses consist of 2 units of study that are additional to the 10 units required for the HSC study pattern. As eligible students will have already completed some units of HSC courses, the inclusion of a 2 Unit Distinction Course in a student's HSC study program is more feasible in terms of time commitment and workload. As a general rule a student may only undertake one Distinction Course.
