Our Year 12 HSC Biology tutoring program begins at the beginning of Term 4 of each year and runs up to the end of Term 3 the following year, just before the external HSC exams. The HSC program continues from our Year 11 Biology program and equips HSC Biology students with the skills and confidence they need to improve their ranks and marks at school and achieve a band 6 result.

First-hand Investigations
Did you know all HSC Biology students will eventually have at least one practical skills assessment that counts anywhere from 15% to 30% toward their total HSC internal assessment? Our year 12 Biology tutoring program not only covers the theoretical content of the HSC Biology Syllabus, but also covers all practical skills outcomes and first-hand investigation sections.
We fully prepare our Biology students for their year 12 practical exams!
