  1. Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 Science 2020

  2. Why study Science next year? • Because you enjoy it • You are good at it • It is a future-focused field that allows you to develop employable skills, such as critical thinking • It is an important entry requirement for many tertiary courses such as: • Medicine • Engineering • Architecture • Veterinarian Science • Nursing • Primary sector (dairying, forestry, arable farming etc) Most importantly: • These courses feed onto Level 2 and Level 3 Sciences. It is very difficult to pick up Science at Level 3 due to the heavy course content. As a result you must meet course entry requirements for Year 12 courses.

  3. What are the fun parts of taking a Science? • Field trips • Heaps of fun practical's and experiments • Great subjects that progress into tertiary study • Knowing why and how things happen

  4. It is optional to take a Year 11 Science in 2020. You are able to take more than one Science. You have a variety of Science courses you can take next year (you are able to take more than one). There are FOUR full year courses. • 11SCI a & b - Core Science (two semesters, 1 NCEA assessment in each) • 11BIO a & b - Human Biology (two semesters, 1 NCEA assessment in each) • 11SCP a & b- Physical Science (two semesters, 1 NCEA assessment in each) • 11 AGS & HTS- NZ Agriculture & Horticulture (two semesters, 1 NCEA assessment in each) To gain entry into Year 12 science courses, you must gain at least 8 Science credits in Year 11, with at least ONE merit grade (or higher) in the senior subject you wish to take. Eg. If you wish to take CHE201, you must gain 8 science credits and a Merit in a Chemistry related assessment (these are found in 11SCIb - General Science - Chemistry & Biology or 11SCPa - Physical Science - Chemistry).

  5. These one semester courses are for interest but, have credits which can be used for entry into year 12 courses • 11FSC - Forensic Science Introduction (1 internal NCEA assessment) • 11SEC – Science - Extreme climates and sustainability (1 internal NCEA assessment)

  6. These one semester courses are for interest but, do count towards entry requirements for Year 12 courses • 11BBC- Science of the Brain (no NCEA assessments) • 11AMS- Animal Management Science (no NCEA assessments)
