The NCEA system has three levels – one, two, and three – corresponding to their respective levels on the National Qualifications Framework. [3] Each level is generally studied in each of the three final years of secondary schooling, [1] with NCEA Level 1 in Year 11, NCEA Level 2 in Year 12, and NCEA Level 3 in Year 13, although it is not uncommon for students to study across multiple levels.
In 2016, mistakes were made in the 2016 maths exam at every level. [26] In 2017, many students and teachers were left perplexed by NCEA Level 1 MCAT externals, stating that they were "too difficult" and "not in the correct standard". NZQA stated that they had full confidence in their papers, [27] but the minister has asked for a review. [28]

There are two written papers, each comprising half of the weightage towards the subject. Each paper is 2 hours 15 minutes long and worth 90 marks. Paper 1 has 12 to 14 questions, while Paper 2 has 9 to 11 questions. Generally, Paper 2 would have a graph plotting question based on linear law. It was originated in the year 2003 [3]
D grade is a failing grade, corresponding to work receiving less than 50%. However, for Honours degrees, the letter grades also correspond to degree classes, with A+/A/A- grades corresponding to a first, B+/high B corresponding to 2:1, etc. Most universities in New Zealand mark C− as the minimum passing grade.
