VCE Maths Exam Preparations

We strongly advise our VCE Maths students to make use of the exam preparation resources that can be found on our range of online environments.  Year 12 Maths teachers will be providing their students with copies of trial exam papers and solutions to assist with their preparations. VCE Maths Unit 3 & 4 October Tests are also being undertaking in Week 1 of term 4.

Students should also follow a number of useful hints when studying for their final exams:

• complete all outstanding class work
• undertake revision on all topics
• have a key focus on revising material which you may have found more difficult to grasp
• summarise your key rules/formulae with related examples
• Further Maths (Unit 3 & 4) students are able to prepare a bound reference for use in both their exams, so work should be well underway with this
• complete past VCAA and trial papers under simulated exam conditions
• set up a study timetable that covers all your subjects
• form a study group which supports your preparations
• balance your studies with other activities to look after your general well-being

Other students in the Middle and Junior schools should also be looking at how they prepare for their own topic tests and any end of year exams. Forming good study habits early in your secondary school education will help boost both your confidence and results.
