The format of the HSC Visual Arts written examination has been revised for 2015 to include personalised examination materials that are pre-printed with the student’s number, name and centre number.
Personalised examination materials reduce work for students during the examination, and allow greater efficiency in identification when answer booklets are scanned for processing and onscreen marking.
The revised examination format will comprise a:
- separate Plates Booklet containing all the plates for Section I of the examination
- personalised Section I question and answer booklet
- separate A4 sheet containing the questions for Section II
- personalised Section II writing booklet.
A sample of the revised HSC Visual Arts examination format can be found on the Visual Arts syllabus page of the BOSTES website.
