  I believe this depends on your chosen Australian education provider's requirements. For example, for Victoria University, you may apply for 572 for a certificate course if you have a Philippine high school diploma with a general average of at least 75% or C. For a diploma/advance diploma course, you need to have at least 75% or C gen. ave. plus at least 2 years of post-high school education.

  @appledeuce: yes, the school may accept me but the problem will be with diac. it was stated at their site that for a 572 visa, year 11 must be completed.
