Will I find it hard?
Difficulty depends on your experience, interests, teaching and assessment. These are our reflection prompts, not an official difficulty rating.
- Try explaining a case, source or argument with evidence. Does this type of writing interest you?
- Look at the amount of terminology, examples and source material in the sample rather than assuming the subject is easy.
Does it scale up or down?
Aerospace Systems, 2025. Table 6 of QTAC’s 2025 report publishes separate raw and scaled subject medians for General subjects with at least 50 students. Historical cohort data cannot predict your result or a future scaling direction.
| Median raw result | Median scaled result |
|---|---|
| 72 | 73.57 |
Scaling is not a measure of difficulty or a guaranteed bonus. Prioritise content you can engage with and required subjects for courses you are considering.
