What My Students Have to Say

You have made Chemistry so simple for my daughter. She says you are even better than her professor and that her classmates would like to have you as her professor.
Meera, California

I have gained immense confidence after studying with the tutors on this website. I recommend the tutors here to everyone who needs online tutoring and homework help.
Sarah Hamilton

My exams had gone off so well after my sessions for MCAT exams with you. I have thoroughly understood Aromatic Reactions, Alkenes and Alkynes after studying with you. Thank you so much. You are the best Chemistry Tutor I have ever had.

About the IB Biology Exam

Dates of Exam: Tentative test dates- Oct, Nov, Dec, Jan, May & June.

SAT - II : Biology
The SAT- II biology is further divided into two parts:

Biology Ecological (Biology E)
Biology Molecular (Biology M).

Biology E concerns mainly with topics related to biological communities, population genetics, energy flow and ecosystems.

Biology M includes topics related to biochemistry, cell structure, photosynthesis and respiration.

Pattern of the exam

It is an hour long exam with 80 questions in all. Out of the 80 questions 60 are multiple choice,common to both E and M while 20 remaining questions are subject based on the basis of the choice elected i.e. E or M. 200-800 points are awarded.

The questions are divided into three major groups based on the type of the skill required to answer a particular question.

Conceptual and knowledge based questions. (30%)	It tests the ability to recall the concept and answer accordingly	E.g. What is the location of cellular respiration? 4 choices will be given and best appropriate answer needs to be chosen
Application based questions. (35%)	It tests the understanding of the subject and analysis the data to reach a conclusion.	E.g. A hypothetical situation is given where one needs to determine the effect of decrease in temperature on the metabolism of a bird or a lizard.
Interpretation based questions. (35%)	This section tests the ability to analyze the data given in the form of a chart or graph and the questions that follows.	E.g. The growth curve of bacteria at 37°C is given based on the observation of the graph predict the time when the growth is maximum

Important tips:

Use of calculators is not allowed.
Both the tests cannot be taken on the same dates, but can be taken on two different dates.
For every right answer one point is awarded,1/4 mark is deducted for a wrong attempt and 0 points awardee for a blank answer.

Study Packages

The study packages for SAT Biology Exam have been designed to cover the complete syllabus. The package can be customized as per your requirements.

Diagnostic Test. The students are first put through a diagnostic test to assess their strengths and areas where they may need greater emphsis.

Study Material. I use the relevant study material for SAT Biology Exam for comprehension of the subject in detail. I use my own presentations which have been prepared keeping the requirements of the students in mind.

Study Topics .The study topics which are covered in the SAT Biology exam have been given out below.
