We produce ready-to-print, Semester One and Two, English and Literature papers with marking keys for the Year 11 and 12 Western Australian ATAR courses.
English and Literature exams are all 3 hours long. English exams comprise three sections, with candidates answering three compulsory questions in Comprehending (30%), and a single question from several choices in both the Responding (40%) and Composing (30%) sections. Literature exams have two sections, with a single Close Reading in Section One (30%) and a choice of two from ten questions in the Extended Response Section Two (70%).

Small group moderation
Individual schools involved in small group moderation each purchase their own copy of a paper using our small course enrolment pricing. Our terms of sale do not permit schools to share our papers with any other school.
Any paper bought using small course enrolment pricing does not qualify for any further discounts (eg quantity discount) when bought with other papers.
How are exams supplied?
Current semester exams, closely modelling the expected format of WACE ATAR papers, and their marking keys are supplied as password protected, ready to print, Word documents. Thus it is possible for schools to edit questions or texts and replace images.
We recommend using them as supplied - our team of writers has worked hard to produce papers that are closely mapped to the courses and will allow all your students to demonstrate their strengths.
We also supply current semester exams as a simple question only booklets, so that schools can choose to use this style rather than the WACE style write-on question/answer booklets.
Past papers, as question only booklets, and marking keys are supplied as pdf documents.
