2024–2025 complete General question corpus · 32 indexed questions, separately marked subparts or printed essay alternatives. No verified numerical question-level cohort performance. The corpus indexes all 16 printed essay alternatives in each year, while candidates answered one 45-mark essay. Printed-option marks total 720 per year and must not be interpreted as a candidate workload or probability. Only the 2026 external text list determines current status; Antony and Cleopatra and The Picture of Dorian Gray have no question in this two-year window. Showing 6 sample entries; trend percentages use this sample only. Official result percentages describe the published exam cohort.

How marks and question types are counted
All printed alternatives are counted in these historical shares; candidates follow the paper’s instructions to choose which questions to answer. Mixed-topic items are kept together, and each indexed question contributes its marks once.
Topic and skill labels are original ATARMAxxing analysis, not official question wording. Historical marks describe the indexed printed corpus, not the probability of future examination content. Multiple-topic items can contribute to more than one topic. Missing results remain missing, and no means are inferred from response percentages. © State of Queensland (QCAA); source publications are linked under their stated CC BY 4.0 terms and exceptions.
Use these patterns alongside your own lost marks to choose practice. Keep covering the full syllabus: repeated topics are not guaranteed to appear again.
