This entrance exam was open to all senior Biology students throughout New Zealand. We are very pleased to announce that Lukáš, who was the only entrant from our school (due to late notice and sports camps etc) has made it through to the next stage! This is a phenomenal opportunity - just making it past the entrance exam is something to be extremely proud of! The exam is very challenging, requiring lots of lateral thinking and the application of biological concepts to new contexts. Lukáš finished amongst the top 240 students in the country and has now been invited to join a tutorial programme where he will spend the next few months learning, discussing, and being assessed on a wide range of biology topics. This will culminate in a selection exam on the 26 February 2025, whereby the top 20-25 in this exam take part in a residential Practical Training Camp during the April (2025) school holidays. The top four of the camp will represent New Zealand at the International Biology Olympiad, to be held in the Philippines in July next year.
