- Ongoing revision: Starting from Term 3, every lesson includes review segments to ensure full content retention.
- Scientific preparation method: 8-week revision is split into two phases—4 weeks for content + practice, followed by 4 weeks of intensive question drilling and concept reinforcement.
- Regular mini-assessments after major topics to verify true mastery. Simulated exam ranking systems are used across campuses so students can benchmark their progress against the wider cohort.
Targeted SAC Preparation
- Custom-tailored classes: Whether your school starts with Unit 3 AOS1 or AOS2, we have classes aligned to support your SAC timeline.
- SAC simulations: Our accelerated schedule allows us to provide mock SACs with full explanations before each real school SAC. Many students report our mock questions appearing exactly the same in their school assessments.
- Additional revision tasks are also available on our digital learning platform to further sharpen SAC performance.
Efficient Exam Technique Training
- Success in Biology is 50% understanding, 50% exam technique and keywords. We systematically train students in exam-specific answering methods to avoid the “I understood it, but didn’t get the marks” pitfall.
- With context-based questions common in Biology, our teachers use real-world examples to help students apply concepts with confidence during assessments.
Competitive and Motivating Learning Environment
- Top-ranking students from elite schools like Nossal High, Huntingtower, Trinity, Strathcona, St Catherine's, and more all study Biology at Austin.
- This creates a high-performance academic environment, pushing every student to strive for their personal best.
