Queensland Certificate of Education: an overview

The QCE is Queensland's senior qualification, awarded by the QCAA. Each General subject runs as Units 1–4, and in Year 12 Units 3 & 4 have three internal assessments (IAs) and one external assessment (EA). In maths and science, the external assessment is worth 50% of your result. Notenix gives you exam-style practice for Mathematical Methods, Specialist Mathematics and the sciences.

QCE format

  • General subjects run as Units 1–4; Units 3 & 4 in Year 12 are summative.
  • Units 3 & 4 have three internal assessments (IA1–IA3) and one external assessment (EA).
