So what topics are most likely to be tested THIS YEAR?
To find out, sign up for our Predictive Revision Crash Course for O-Level Biology Practical, details of which can be found here: O-LEVEL PURE BIOLOGY HANDS-ON PRACTICAL CRASH COURSE. Hurry, places are very limited as our lab can only take in 7 students max.
DO YOU KNOW THAT THE SCIENCE PRACTICAL IS WEIGHTED TO BETWEEN 15% TO 20% OF YOUR TOTAL SCIENCE EXAM MARKS?
It can actually make a 1 to 3 grade difference in your total points for your exam! And it is easier to score a Distinction for your Science exam if you are very competent in your Science Practicals.
Right now, ARE YOU CONFIDENT that you can complete your science practical exam and answer all its questions correctly in the time allocated?
If you are looking for SCIENCE PRACTICAL TRAINING, CRASH COURSE OR MOCK EXAM PRACTICE (FOR PHYSICS, CHEMISTRY, BIOLOGY), don’t hesitate to contact us at 65694897 or 88765498.
