There are benefits to be gained from study of VCE units at a higher level. Study of a Unit 3 and 4 sequence enables students to:
- study a sixth subject, which may be of advantage for tertiary entrance purposes.
- qualify to study a University Extension study in Year 12.
However, it is not in the student’s best interest to accelerate a subject unless they are able to perform to a high standard in all their subjects.
Students who complete a Unit 3 and 4 in Year 11 are expected to study five Unit 3 and 4 subjects in Year 12.
Students wishing to apply to study a Unit 3 and 4 in Year 11 must meet the following criteria:
- Demonstrate they are academically suited with results of an 'A' standard in all Semester 1 subjects.
- Be well organisation and motivated to succeed.
- Demonstrated strength in the subject area of the proposed Unit 3 and 4 subject.
Please Note:
If a student undertakes study at the Unit 3 and 4 level and performs poorly and repeats the units, a penalty may be applied by some institutions when determining tertiary offers.
At the end of Semester 1 students may wish to review their Unit 2 choices for Semester 2; limited places may be available for students to make changes.
