For NSW HSC teachers
The real HSC exam format,
for every subject.
OnlineExams runs the actual complexity of the online HSC: elective and variant questions for English Extension, extended scientific-investigation responses for Science Extension, and a live SQL sandbox, Python editor and database tools for Software Engineering and Enterprise Computing. Students get the exam they'll actually sit, not a simplified stand-in.

Second to none where it counts
Built better. Priced fairly.
Plenty of tools deliver an exam in a browser. Two things set OnlineExams apart, and both are things a Head of Department feels on day one.
Handles the exam formats other platforms simplify away
A student's actual SQL query, Python code or database-schema answer runs for real, mapped to the NSW outcome it assesses, not a multiple-choice stand-in.

How schools use it
One platform, the whole way to the HSC
Start low-stakes in the junior years, so the online format is second nature long before it counts.
Sit the online HSC
Practise and sit in the real online format, including the new English Extension 1 & 2, in the environment students face on the day.
exam-grade deliveryPrepare in English & TAS
Run the Stage 5 subjects that feed Stage 6 in the same environment, so the format is familiar and exam nerves are lower before they matter.
format familiarityEveryday online homework
Low-stakes practice and homework across your written and technical subjects, auto-marked, so students get feedback and you get your evenings back.
formative & practiceWhy teachers stay
Built by HSC teachers who know where the time goes
And, just as importantly, where it shouldn't. Four things we got right that matter on exam day.
Real technical answers, not just ticks
The SQL sandbox, Python editor and diagram tools run the student's actual work, laid out against the syllabus outcome for fast, consistent marking.
RAP-style analysis, automatically
Facility and discrimination for every item, by focus area, the moment marking closes. The analysis you'd otherwise export to a spreadsheet, already done.
Answers survive a dropped connection
Responses keep saving and recover automatically if the wifi cuts out mid-exam. The one thing students and teachers actually worry about, handled.
Australian data, by default
All student data is stored in Australia and handled under the Australian Privacy Principles, including APP 11. The answer your IT director needs.
Supported courses
Two kinds of subject, one platform
The technical courses that need a real code or SQL answer. And every written, spoken and aural subject, run on standard question types with audio. Adding a subject is content, not a rebuild.
