HSC Important Reminders
- Following the marking of HSC Trial examinations, all boys will be made aware of their final assessment rank in each subject. If they are unsure, they should confirm these details with the teacher concerned prior to the end of term. Any queries in relation to assessment ranks must be resolved by Wednesday 11 September.
- Final assessment ranks will also be stated on the final Year 12 reports.
- All boys must log onto Students Online via the Board of Studies website using their BOS number and PIN. They should check that all details, including their address, are correct. Boys that have lost their PIN will need to contact the Board of Studies directly in order to have a new PIN issued.
- Assessment ranks will be available via Students Online following the final HSC examinations on Wednesday 6 November. It is imperative that all boys check that their assessment ranks are correct. Any anomalies must be reported to the College immediately.
- Boys must check their HSC examination timetable carefully. If boys misread the timetable and fail to attend an examination, they will receive a mark of zero for that particular exam. Parents can download a copy of the HSC examination timetable here.
- Boys that are unable to attend an examination due to illness must contact the College on the morning of the examination.
- Students may lodge an appeal if an illness or misadventure suffered immediately before or during an HSC examination has affected their performance. The decision to submit an illness/misadventure appeal and the responsibility for doing so rests with the student, except where the student is too ill to do so. Boys must make the Presiding Officer aware of their intention to submit an illness/misadventure appeal prior to the commencement of the examination. Illness/misadventure appeal forms are available from the Presiding Officer.
- No mobile phones or notes of any form are to be taken into the examination hall.
- Teaching staff will be available to assist boys in Term 4 up until their HSC Examination. The best time to contact staff is during the time of their normal Year 12 classes. It is best to contact staff via phone or email prior to coming into school for assistance so that no misunderstandings arise.
- HSC results will be made available on Wednesday 18 December.
- EAS Applications must be lodged with UAC by Friday 27 September. Any boys that have experienced long-term educational disadvantage due to circumstances beyond their control or choosing, which has seriously affected their educational performance in Year 12 should apply. Forms may be downloaded here.
