What's the Difference Between a Test, Exam and a Game? |
| A test is a collection of questions that focusses on one chemistry concept or skill, these questions are designed to give you practice in answering questions on that one concept or skill.
An exam is a set of questions that are based on one chemistry concept or skill but may require knowledge of other concepts or skills as well in order to answer the question, just like the questions you might get in an exam. For this reason exam questions may seem more difficult than test questions.
For each test and exam question there is a fully worked solution. You get access to the "correct" answer immediately, you do not need to complete a whole test or exam before you can see the solution. In this way you can apply what you have learnt to the next question.
Some self-grading exams are also available for the Queensland, New South Wales and Victorian Chemistry Syllabi.
A learning activity or game, requires you to successfully answer questions on a particular chemistry topic in order to progress through the game.
Wherever possible there is a link from the tests and exams to the relevant AUS-e-TUTE tutorial page. There are also links on the AUS-e-TUTE tutorial pages that will take you to the first test and/or exam in the set of tests and exams on that topic. There is also a "search for a test or exam" option to help you easily find tests and exams on a particular skill, concept or topic.

What Sort of Questions are in the Tests and Exams? |
| For each topic you will find multiple choice questions, and questions requiring short or long answers.
The questions and answers can include graphs, tables, charts, diagrams, calculations, equations.
In fact, AUS-e-TUTE tries to provide a broad cross-section of question types for each topic.
