Does prelim knowledge get tested in HSC exams? (1 Viewer)

[sarkar_as]

I know maths gets both prelim and HSC tested but what about subjects like economics, business studies and physics?

 

[pikachu975]

Yes definitely. Even junior year knowledge can be tested (e.g. density formula, even though not explicitly in the HSC syllabus, can be tested).

Only for maths. For sciences I haven't seen any questions on prelim content other than basic skills (e.g in chem: chemical equations, electron diagrams etc). Also some prelim content is relearnt anyway.

Also adding on for maths, 30% of the content tested can be from prelim. UP TO...they don't have to fulfill that.

for eco, the content isnt directly tested but a lot of prelim stuff will be needed to understand hsc content. maths is up to 30% but if its a question of mainly prelim stuff but also 1 bit of hsc stuff, it counts as a hsc question. But a lot of it is embedded in the hsc course
