SCORE Fun Facts
All exams are managed through our bespoke online system known as SCORE.
If you have previously registered as an Account Holder for Online Theory, use the same login details for any new exam enrolments.
Through SCORE, you can:
- Enrol for an exam
- Download and print your exam notification and repertoire form
- Read your Report and see your result
- Download your exam invoice
- Request support
- Request an exam withdrawal or refund (check out our policies so you know what you can expect).
SCORE is our enrolment platform and it's built and managed by our IT team in the AMEB Federal Office. We're lucky to have a (small) team of experts on hand to continue to add features and attend to any bugs as they arise. Watch this space for new additions!
How to Enrol for an exam
Create an Account Profile
Start by setting up your account profile. Parents, teachers, candidates over 18, and schools can all be the account holder for an exam enrolment. Head to SCORE and click the "New to Score" button to register. Once you've completed that, you'll receive an email confirmation and a link to log in. Head back to SCORE and select the account type of "Account Holder" to log in and then you can start your exam enrolment!
Enrolling for an Exam
Once you're in SCORE, you'll see a menu option for "Buy Exams and Courses". You can enrol for both practical and online theory exams here.
Exam and Syllabus types
If you're unsure as to which exam you should be enrolling in, your teacher is always the best person to ask. If you don't know which exam type is which, please have a look at our Syllabuses page for explanations and guidance.
Payment
We'll ask you for your credit card details at the final point of enrolment so please have those ready. An invoice will be automatically generated and can be downloaded from SCORE in case you need this for tax purposes, or to forward the fee to your students. Schools that would like to be invoiced, please read more about that in our Teacher Support section.
Exam Notification
When we've scheduled your exam (and we aim to do this about 4 to 6 weeks in advance of the exam day), we'll send you an email to let you know that your notification is available.
Log into SCORE and, from the menu, select "My Practical Exams". The blue "Actions" cog will now have the option to "View/Print Exam Notification Letter". Make sure you print this single-sided so that you can provide the first page to the Supervisor on the day. The second page is where you write your repertoire and will go into the exam with you.
Receiving Reports
Once the Examiner has finalised your report and we have tripled checked it in the office, we'll send you an email to let you know that it's available.
Log into SCORE and, from the menu, select "My Practical Exams". The blue "Actions" cog will now have the option to view your report. We'll still post out your certificate (assuming all requirements are met) so please ensure your postal details are up to date.
Other SCORE Fun Facts and FAQs
We're in the process of some exciting (and substantial) changes to Score, including a facelift (no more beige!) and a heap of new features. They're due to be released in July 2022 and we look forward to introducing you to the easier and more intuitive layout soon.
Special Needs Candidates
We have a section in the application where we'd appreciate any detail you can provide: how we can best support your needs; any medication you'll have with you and where we can find it if needs be; action plans if you have them; size of sight-reading music or visual aides, etc.
Why do changes need to be submitted for approval?
You may realise that you've put a typo in your date of birth, or want to add a middle name later. Any changes to your details will be sent to the state office so that we are aware of the new details. Sometimes a little change for you will necessitate updates elsewhere in our system, or have a flow on effect for your exam, so we make sure that's all looked after before we "approve" the change.
Online Theory
All Online Theory, both Courses and Exams, are managed through SCORE. To view your enrolment details, you'll need to select from the menu "My Enrolments". From here, you can view practice exam results and check your Candidate's log in details so that they can access their Course or Exam.
Missing candidate details?
You can start an enrolment and come back later if you need to check on a few things or add more students. To find where you were up to, select "Cart" from the menu. You can also edit this information if you need and it all stays as a draft until you progress through the checkout and finalise payment.
Do I need to enter additional parent/teacher details?
Yes please. We only ask for the details we need. Scheduling is a massive jigsaw puzzle and sometimes we need some more details to ensure we get you the most convenient time. Many of these are questions that only a parent or a teacher can answer so it's important that we can contact whoever is most relevant.
Enrolling multiple candidates
You can enrol multiple students and pay for them all in one transaction. We've tried to make this as easy as possible but, because of some of the logic behind the forms, there are a few limitations. For example, if your candidates are doing both Piano for Leisure and Piano syllabuses, you'll need to enter them separately. BUT, if you want to add more candidates, just save the enrolment and start a new one. Everything will sit in the Cart until you're ready to finalise them. The Cart is also a great chance to double check all of your enrolments - make sure you have details correct, that you haven't duplicated any, or missed someone out.
TCE credit points
If you'd like us to advise TASC of the Candidate's result to go toward their TCE points, please tick the box in the enrolment form. We'll need some extra details about the Candidate to complete the data that TASC need to match the points to the person. Our Accreditation page has some more information on this if you're wondering what these points are.
Need more help?
First of all, there's an FAQ button, right down the bottom of the page in the footer. If you can't find your answer there, our support platform is also available - from the menu, select "Support". From here, you can get help for enrolments, payments, technical issues, detail changes and more.
If you're ever in doubt, please give us a call at the AMEB Tasmania office so that we can guide you through - we're here to help!
