This is how I got a top score in Biology
You know the one thing that 90% of bio students I see complain to me about?
Content.
Why? Because there’s just so much. Ask anyone who teaches or studies the subject: as soon as you think you’ve understood one topic, your teacher is 4 weeks ahead, your tutor is 2 weeks behind, and you’re ready to throw the towel in and give up. There are entire websites and university courses and online resources dedicated to a single chapter out of your textbook. How much are you supposed to know before you’re studying university level medical biology thinking that’s what the exam will be on? Will you even finish covering all the content?
You just need to know the QCAA syllabus inside out, and how to show your knowledge off in exams.
Learning every single little thing will get you nowhere if you don’t get taught EXACTLY how the QCE biology course works from the ground up. Studying hours upon hours every day and cutting into your other subjects is worthless unless you’re studying the right things. I can tell you now - to get a top mark in biology you really only need to be on thing: efficient. I don't believe in excessive note taking for biology. I believe in understanding
The entire bio course can be narrowed down into a few vital principles. If you spend your time learning these principles, truly understanding them and how to display your knowledge according to the marking key - then you'll be able to tackle every exam question with ease.
As a tutor and a medical science student, I can teach you these principles. I teach my KIS students EXACTLY what they need to know on the exam, how to articulate their answers to get full marks on every question, and how to stop wasting time studying unnecessary material. I focus on the principles that actually get you marks. Your number one priority should be to get as many marks as possible on your assessments and exams; not to waste time packing useless information into your memory without learning how to properly articulate your answers.
It’s time to change your approach to QCE Biology. I can help you do this.

Hi, I'm Connell! I graduated from Brisbane Boys' College with an ATAR of 99.75. I'm now studying a Bachelor of Medical Science at Griffith University which grants me direct entry into the Doctor of Medicine program.
My favourite subject at school was Biology, and I was able to achieve a perfect score in this subject in year 12. During school, I placed a high priority on academics. However, I was also able to participate in many extra-curricular activities including basketball, AFL and debating. My goal is to enable my students to do the same by providing comprehensive tutoring in an efficient manner.
I have experience in tutoring a number of students, so I am able to quickly make sessions with new students as productive as possible. I also strive not to solely teach content to students, but to also provide students with methods and routines that will set them up to become independent academics for the future.
