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.
Official question identities, mark allocations and published results come from VCAA. Labels, topic coding and syllabus mappings are ATARMAxxing analysis. Historical shares describe indexed printed marks, not future-question probabilities or a candidate’s assessed weighting. Wrong-option rates exclude omissions; zero-mark and full-mark proportions are separate measures. Published rounding is retained: means and outcome percentages are separate reported statistics, and no mean is reconstructed from rounded distribution percentages. Source links open the parent question or text; use the official paper for exact wording, figures and later parts. The current February 2026 specification allows 75–80 marks in Section A and 10–15 in Section B, totalling 90, with 120 minutes writing and 15 minutes reading. The indexed 2024 and 2025 papers each use a 75/15 split. Section B can draw on Unit 3 and/or Unit 4 across more than one area of study; it is not restricted to a fixed future split. Only 2 completed current-design main examination year(s) are available in this corpus; this is not a three-year trend.
Use these patterns alongside your own lost marks to choose practice. Keep covering the full syllabus: repeated topics are not guaranteed to appear again.
