Australian Chemistry Olympiad Test Menu

Never regard study as a duty, but as the enviable opportunity to learn to know the liberating influence of beauty in the realm of the spirit for your own personal joy and to the profit of the community to which your later work belongs. -- Albert Einstein

The National Qualifying Exam is the first test students take on the way to being selected for Australia's International Chemistry Olympiad team. In America, the equivalent test is called the Local Section Test. I do not have any answers for 1987-1999.

The Final Qualifying Exam appears to be the next test Australian students take, similar to the National Test taken by American students. The FQE is in two parts, labeled A and B in the table below.

By the way, in America, somewhere around 2000 students "pass" the National Test. From that group about 20 are invited to a two-week camp (at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado), where the final team selection is made.

I imagine Australia (and other countries) have a similiar process.
