im confused...if its for yr 7-11 students how does it involved yr 12 and 1st yr uni students?

 

[Wooz]

I meant the yr7-11 students who do the biology olympiad study a special syllabus which includes the y12 HSC and 1st year university syllabus.

Um, I did the NQE in 04 and got a distinction. I didn't do biology at school and I crammed a few hours before the test. It didn't work so my main advice is don't do what I did.
