Keep options open:
Students are encouraged to keep career and further study options as open as possible, consider two or three possible VCE/VET courses rather than just one. It is important that students select subjects/programs that will develop and meet the required competencies of their chosen pathway.
Be sure to cover any prerequisite subjects for tertiary courses:
Many courses at universities and some TAFEs have prerequisite studies that must be successfully completed for entry into a course. These are outlined on www.vtac.edu.au and must be taken into account. It is the responsibility of students to research prerequisites for courses they are interested in.
Use accurate information:
It is essential that students choose VCE or VET programs on the basis of accurate information. Entry requirements and pathways change from year to year, so students must ensure that they have done their research.
Achieving a balance:
Students need to balance their emotional, intellectual, physical and artistic needs when choosing subjects so that they enjoy them! Students are more likely to do well in subjects that they are interested in.
