Science
N(A) Level / G2
Physics. Chemistry. Biology.
Our Science N(A) Level / G2 programme covers all three sciences across syllabuses 5105, 5106 and 5107, building conceptual understanding and examination precision for the GCE N(A)-Level.
All content is aligned with the requirements set out in the Science (Physics, Chemistry) Syllabus 5105, Science (Physics, Biology) Syllabus 5106 and Science (Chemistry, Biology) Syllabus 5107 published by the Ministry of Education Singapore.
Understanding the N(A)-Level Science Exam
Science at the N(A) Level is a combined subject. Students study two sciences and are examined under one of three syllabus codes. Each student sits four papers from a pool of six.

Assessment Objectives Weighting (Theory Papers)
~45%
A — Knowledge with Understanding
Approximately 20% of marks allocated to direct recall; the remaining 25% tests deeper understanding.
~45%
B — Handling Information and Solving Problems
Applying scientific knowledge to interpret data, solve problems and draw conclusions from experimental results.
~10%
C — Experimental Skills and Investigations
Selecting techniques, recording observations, interpreting data, evaluating methods and suggesting improvements.
Each structured paper (Papers 2, 4, 6) includes a Section B where candidates must answer 1 of 2 questions (8 marks each). Our coaching trains students to quickly identify which question plays to their strengths and to allocate their time accordingly — a skill that can make a meaningful difference to the final grade.
Explore Each Science
Select a science to explore the full topic list. All three sciences are covered regardless of which syllabus combination (5105, 5106 or 5107) your child is taking.
The Physics component of N(A) Level / G2 Science develops students’ understanding of energy, matter, and their interrelationships. It focuses on applying patterns, models, principles, theories and laws to explain the physical behaviour of the universe — from everyday mechanics to electricity and radioactivity.
The Chemistry component of N(A) Level / G2 Science places greater emphasis on understanding and applying scientific concepts and principles than on factual recall. Students develop investigative and problem-solving skills, learning to communicate theoretical concepts and appreciate the role of chemistry in a sustainable world.
The Biology component of N(A) Level / G2 Science emphasises understanding and applying scientific concepts over factual recall. Students develop investigative and problem-solving skills, learning to explain how living organisms sustain life — from the cellular level through to organ systems and ecological interactions.
How We Coach at Each Stage
Our coaching adapts to where your child is in their Secondary journey — building scientific foundations in Sec 3 and refining for peak O-Level performance in Sec 4.
Secondary 3 introduces the core Physics sections: Measurement, Newtonian Mechanics, and Thermal Physics. Students encounter quantitative problem-solving for the first time — applying formulae, drawing and interpreting graphs, and working with SI units. Our coaching builds strong conceptual understanding alongside structured problem-solving habits from the outset.
Secondary 3 covers Sections I and II of the Chemistry syllabus — the structural and reactive foundations of chemistry. Students learn to write chemical equations, perform mole calculations, and understand bonding and structure. Our coaching emphasises conceptual clarity and systematic problem-solving, particularly for the mole concept which many students find challenging.
Secondary 3 covers Sections I and II of the Biology syllabus — from cell structure through to the human body systems. Students encounter significant new content including enzyme biochemistry, the circulatory system, and infectious diseases. Our coaching builds strong diagram-labelling skills alongside the ability to explain biological processes in precise, mark-scheme-aligned language.
Secondary 4 completes the Physics syllabus with Waves, Electricity and Magnetism, and Radioactivity. The second half of the year pivots to intensive examination preparation — full-paper practice under timed conditions, structured question technique, and targeted revision of weaker areas. Our coaching trains students to handle Section B choice questions strategically and write precise, mark-scheme-aligned answers.
Secondary 4 completes the Chemistry syllabus with the Periodic Table patterns, Organic Chemistry, and Maintaining Air Quality. The second half of the year focuses on examination preparation — structured question technique, Section B strategy, and full-paper practice. Our coaching trains students to apply chemical knowledge to unfamiliar contexts and write precise, mark-scheme-aligned answers.
Secondary 4 completes the Biology syllabus with Nutrition and Transport in Flowering Plants, then pivots to intensive examination preparation. Our coaching trains students to handle data-based questions on photosynthesis and transpiration, and to write precise answers for the structured questions in Section A and the choice questions in Section B.
