Tertiary Entrance Exam
For the new examination and curriculum system that has replaced the Tertiary Entrance Exam (TEE), see WACE (Western Australian Certificate of Education).
The Tertiary Entrance Examination (TEE) was the standard academic examination for secondary students completing their twelfth year of schooling in Western Australia. The exam results were used to determine the Tertiary Entrance Rank and the Tertiary Entrance Score. These metrics were used to determine eligibility for entrance to the tertiary institutions in the state. From 2010 onwards, WACE is now the umbrella term given to the set of final examinations that are completed by Year 12 students, replacing the TEE (Tertiary Entrance Exam). All previous TEE courses and corresponding examinations how now been converted to the new WACE curriculum, as well as the TER (Tertiary Entrance Rank) being replaced with the Australian national standard entrance score, the ATAR.
