School holiday events

ATAR Notes Exam Revision lecture series (FOR STUDENTS)

RMIT is partnering with ATAR Notes to provide a series of free lectures for VCE students.

 

The Exam Revision lecture series, running during the upcoming school holidays, will help students prepare for Unit 3 and 4 exams across a range of subjects. There are also a small number of sessions focusing on Units 1 and 2 in selected studies.

Lectures are delivered by current tertiary students and young professionals who achieved excellent results in these subjects during their final year of high school.

 

Lectures are held at RMIT’s City campus, and tickets are very limited. These lectures always book out very quickly, so please encourage your students to register soon if they wish to secure a place. Registrations can be made through ATAR Notes’ Eventbrite page.

 

Please be advised VU Law and Justice Open Day will now be held on Sunday 17 September from 11am until 2pm, at our City Queen Campus. We invite you and your students to come along to:
