Biology OL Dr.Ragaei

Hi everyone, I’m Dr. Amr Ragaei, your Biology instructor for IGCSE 0970. In this course, you’ll focus especially on Paper 2 (Multiple Choice, Extended), Paper 4 (Theory, Extended), and Paper 6 (Alternative to Practical). Paper 2 has 40 questions, lasts 45 minutes, and counts for 30% of your final mark. Paper 4 is the main theory exam, 80 marks, 1 hour 15 minutes, and is 50%. Paper 6 lets you show your practical understanding in written form, worth 40 marks, and makes up 20%.

We cover all the Extended content (Core + Supplement), so you’ll be prepared for questions that test not just facts but analysis, problem-solving, and lab-skills theory. To reach a top grade (Grade 9 or A*), you’ll need to aim high — scores are often above 150-160 out of 200 points in recent sessions, depending on difficulty. But more than just grades, I want you to understand deeply, feel confident in experiments (even if in Paper 6 it’s written), and develop the scientific thinking that stays with you long after the exam.
