TCE Results

Scotch Oakburn College’s Grade 12 results for 2002 were outstanding. 30% of the year group were ranked in the top 10% of students nationally, and 47% were ranked in the top 15% nationally. 

Every student attempting to gain University entrance qualifications was successful.  These results, once again, clearly give Scotch Oakburn College the best academic results of any school in the north of the state, and second in the State after The Friends’ School.

Dux of the College for 2002, Tony Hughes, achieved a Tertiary Entrance score of 115.4, which placed him equal top in Tasmania, and gave him the highest possible National ranking. 

Five other students gained TE scores of over 100: Andrew Joyce 114.8, Andrew Campbell 107.7, Emelyn Moles 104.7, Madeline Cooper 102.8 and Jaclyn Quin 101.9.

In individual subjects, Ben Eastman (Food Studies), Andrew Campbell (Economics) and Tony Hughes (Physics and Chemistry), were ranked top of the State.

The 2002 Grade 12 class continued the tradition of academic excellence in Scotch Oakburn College.  They illustrated the strength of the programme from the Early Learning Centre to Grade 12, through hard work, and with the support of their parents and the dedication of staff.
