Multivariate Exemplars

The following pages are very useful for preparation for the assessment. They include a sample assessment and examples of student work at various grades with notes about why they got this grade.

The assessment standard

Example assessments - Select 1.10A and 1.10B

Example answers A

Example answers B

Take note of:

• How similar the assessments are - this is how your assessment will be worded.
• Why students got a higher or lower grade - what held them back?
• Examples of good comments you could write about.
