Over the past few months, we launched our webinar series ‘Breaking down the Year 12 HSC Syllabus’ for a number of subjects including Advanced English, Mathematics, Sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Physics) and Economics.
Together with our Talent 100 Subject Heads, we covered everything you need to know before entering Year 12 and how to get ahead.
These are free information workshops for Year 11 and 12 students to explain the important changes implemented in the HSC, the breakdown of each course, how exams will be assessed and how Talent teaches for the new testing guidelines.
