How TCE subject selection works

Year 11 and Year 12 structure

Accredited course levels across senior years

Completing the certificate

120 credit points including 80 at Level 2 or above, plus the everyday-adult English, maths and computers/internet standards.

Considering an ATAR?

TCE, two years after Year 10 and satisfactory results in at least four eligible Level 3/4 courses or equivalents. Eligible best results span two senior years.

What does scaling mean?

TASC awards and scaled TE scores are distinct. The old requirement for three final-year results was removed from 2025.

Scaling compares results across cohorts. It does not tell you whether you will enjoy a subject or how much effort you will need. Historical numbers are labelled by year and statistic in each subject profile.

Can I change my subjects?

Course movement deadlines and catch-up requirements apply. Do not count one accredited course twice because it appears in two resource year groups.

What if I do not know my career?

Start with subject content, sample work and your interests. Keep a few options to discuss rather than trying to predict your career now. Course prerequisites are an optional check for exact courses, institutions and entry years.

What about vocational or non-ATAR study?

An ATAR is one pathway. Ask your school about VET, apprenticeships, traineeships, certificate requirements and other tertiary entry pathways. Choose the non-ATAR option in your plan to keep certificate planning separate from ATAR checks.
