Queensland Core Skills Test• The QCS Test contributes information for the calculation of
Overall Positions (OPs) which are used to select students for university entrance.
• 4 papers:
-Writing Task (600 words)
-Short Response
-2x Multiple Choice papers
• The results achieved for each of the 4 test papers are combined into one grade, ranging from A to E.
• Variety of stimulus materials, such as prose passages, poetry, graphs, tables, maps, mathematical and scientific data, cartoons and artistic works.

Why do we stress the
importance of the QCS test?
• How well students perform as a cohort on QCS will have a
huge impact on individual results.
– Scales each subject
– Scales the school’s performance

QCS preparation program at BSHS
• Students are being asked to complete practice multiple
choice questions via survey monkey-once a fortnight.

What is an OP?
• OP = Overall Position
• student's position in a state wide rank order
based on their overall achievement in authority
subjects.
• OP1 (highest) to OP25 (lowest)
• Students seeking an OP:
– Authority Subjects contribute
– At least 3 of 6 subjects must remain unchanged
through Years 11 & 12
– Sit the Queensland Core Skills Test (QCS)
Achievement
and Position
are not the
same thing.
Changing a
subject does
not mean it
‘doesn’t
count’
The cohort
QCS mean
has an
impact on
individual
achievement

400
200
• 5 Achievement bands:
– Very High Achievement (VHA)- Very Limited Achievement (VLA)
• Achievement bands separated into 10 rungs
• Each student assigned a SAI (subject achievement indicator).
• Score between 400 and 200.
• SAIs show individual achievement compared with the achievement of other students in each subject at BSHS.
How are students positioned?

OP Myth 1: To get an OP1, it's better to
study some subjects than others.MAB, MAC, Physics, Chemistry,
Biology
Philosophy, MAB, MAC, Art,
Chemistry (change to ENX)
Legal, Modern History, Maths A, French,
Biology (changed), Art
Philosophy, Japanese, Modern History,
ENX, MAB, BMN
There are a HUGE range of subject combinations in the

calculated?
• Uses student achievement at end of Semester 1.

• “Provisional OP range” not a “prediction”. Multiple
variables: cohort performance on QCS, how other students
perform in subjects & subject means.

Provisional OP Score Summary
OAI= Overall Achievement Indicator. The OAI indicates how well a
student has performed across the Years 11 and 12 subjects,
compared with all other students in the same school. The OAIs
indicate a rank order for all OP-eligible students within the school.
Scaled= Scaled OAIs provide a single rank order for the whole State. These
scaled OAIs compare each student with all other students in the State,
regardless of their combination of subjects and regardless of the school
attended.

Pathway options
• For some students it will be better to complete a
certificate course and use the Selection Rank to get into
university rather than an OP.
• Our priority is to open up pathway options for students.
• Students will have very limited university course choices
when it comes to university courses with an OP15-25.
• Students can still go for an OP with 5 Authority subjects
and a certificate or Diploma course. We have a large
number of students on this pathway.
