Start by asking yourself:  \n• What am I good at?  \n• Which subjects do I enjoy most?  \n• What career goals do I have?  \n• What subjects and skills will I need to achieve these career goals?  \n• What level of school education will I need?  \n• What further education or training will I need?  \nThe answers to these questions will help you to decide on the best pathway for you through Years 11 and 12 as you embark upon your Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) .  \nThe VCE is a two-year course* . As shown below, there are several pathways available to students completing their VCE. These will be explained in detail in the following pages.  \nSENIOR PATHWAYS THROUGH YEARS 11 AND 12  \n*In some cases, students may complete the VCE over three years.  \nPathway 1 VCE Scored (ATAR)– Non-vocational pathway  \nThis pathway is suitable for students wishing to enter higher education (university or other tertiary studies) at the completion of their VCE. Many tertiary institutions set prerequisites for entry into their courses  \nb . b ’ f x  \nYear 12 examinations and internally assessed School Assessed Coursework. You can find more information about the ATAR in the Glossary on page 110.  \nStudents choosing this pathway will select subjects from the VCE subjects list. They may choose to replace one VCE subject with a VET certificate course from the VET Priority Pathways course list or with Applied Fashion Design and Technology (only) from the VET Flexible Pathways list if the course is available and the timetable allows. You can find more information about VET in the Glossary on page 110.  \nStudents choosing the VCE Scored (ATAR) p","cbCaiuiMZ4881xpo","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuiMZ4881xpo","pdf",2072958,112,"English","# Introduction\n# Senior Pathways through Years 11 and 12\n## Pathway 1 VCE Scored (ATAR) – Non-vocational pathway\n## Pathway 2 VCE Vocational Major – Vocational pathway\n# VCE Subject Lists\n# VCE Subject Descriptions\n## Accounting\n## Art – Creative Practice\n## Art – Making and Exhibiting\n## Biology\n## Business Management\n## Chemistry\n## Dance\n## Drama\n## Economics\n## English/English as an Additional Language\n## Environmental Science\n## Food Studies\n## Geography\n## Health and Human Development\n## History\n## Information Technology\n## Languages – Italian\n## Languages – Japanese Second Language\n## Legal Studies\n## Literature\n## Mathematics – Foundation Mathematics\n## Mathematics – General Mathematics\n## Mathematics – Mathematical Methods\n## Mathematics – Specialist Mathematics\n## Media\n## Music\n## Outdoor and Environmental Studies\n## Philosophy\n## Physical Education\n## Product Design and Technologies - Materials\n## Psychology\n## Sociology\n## Systems Engineering\n## Visual Communication Design\n## VET Apparel, Fashion and Textiles\n## VET Health Services\n# VCE VM Course Design and Information\n# Glossary","[{\"question\":\"What are the two main VCE pathways described for Years 11 and 12?\",\"answer\":\"The handbook describes Pathway 1: VCE Scored (ATAR) – a non-vocational pathway, and Pathway 2: VCE Vocational Major (VCE VM) – a vocational pathway.
