Re: exams
We are heading to melbourne in Australia where there A-level equivalent is called a VCE, if this is where you are heading then this may be of help from official website (http://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/vce/index.html) :-
My son/daughter is transferring into the VCE from interstate/overseas. Can he/she still earn the VCE?
Students need to complete 16 units to be awarded the VCE. A student who is transferring into year 11 or 12 may need to apply for their interstate or overseas studies to be credited towards the VCE to help them reach 16 units.
Schools apply for credit for the VCE - students should ask their VCE coordinator to put in an application for them.
