Step 1
Do your research:

Five key considerations in your choice:

- PATHWAYS – identify whether a university or pathway (eg TAFE or another RTO) or a blend of the two if necessary to achieve your career goal(s).
- University entrance score (ATAR): A minimum of four 20 credit stage 2 subjects or course equivalents is required.
- INTERESTS – choose subjects that genuinely interest you.
- ABILITIES – choose subjects you are capable of doing well.
- PREREQUISITES – certain university courses require you to have studied particular subject(s) in Year 12.
