The ICQ is not a test of syllabus content.

While some questions will rely on knowledge and understanding covered as part of studying the Australian
Curriculum, we have endeavored to make the quiz interesting and to promote chemistry and chemical thinking.
Questions that go beyond what is covered in syllabus documents should be able to be answered by students applying
their knowledge and understanding to stimulus material provided in the questions. Some questions that are designed
to challenge more able students may be/will be included.
