Combined Bio + Chem (sat at G3 or G2) — precise Biology vocabulary, structured Chemistry calculation, both halves taught with the same focus on structured answers.
Combined Sci students coast on memorisation through Sec 3 — and it works for a while. Then Sec 4 papers shift to application: explain why, predict the outcome, link the process to the context. The memorising stops paying off. Marks plateau at B+ and parents watch the revision hours climb with no movement on the grade.
"I revised everything. Same grade as last time."
We teach Combined Sci as application from week one. Every Bio and Chem topic ends with "now use it" — apply to a context, predict the outcome, explain the link. That shift from recall to application is what moves students past a B.
Yes — that's my child →Combined Bio + Chem (Sec 3 & 4) runs at both branches — pick the slot and branch that suits you. Free trial at either centre. WhatsApp us to confirm availability.
Each term covers 8 weekly lessons — we run 8-week cycles rather than following the 10-week MOE school terms. The 10% bundle rate applies when you take 2 or more subjects — any combination, not a fixed pairing. Missed lessons are credited into the next term — credit applies for public holidays, school holidays, official school activities, and absences with a medical certificate.
Every topic in the Sec 3 / 4 G3 Combined Bio + Chem syllabus, taught in the order that builds skill. G2 Combined Science is a different, narrower syllabus — its Biology stops after infectious diseases and plant nutrition and transport, with no coordination, reproduction, genetics or ecology, and its Chemistry has no redox, electrolysis, energy changes or rate. Topics marked G3 only below are not part of it. We refresh the materials every year against the latest SEAB exam reports.
Syllabus source. This list is checked against the SEAB G2 Science (Chemistry, Biology) syllabus (K225) for the 2027 SEC. Last checked 16 Aug 2026. Syllabus content is set by MOE and SEAB; the teaching methods described elsewhere on this page are Genie’s own.
The methods we teach with — applied across the term, calibrated to where each student needs them most.
Most lost marks are habit, not knowledge. We track them, name them, and correct them until they stop appearing.
A typical question: "Explain why water moves into the cell when the surrounding solution is dilute." Students who memorised 'osmosis' get 1 mark. Students taught the answer chain — water potential gradient, direction, process, membrane — get 3. The chain is the same in Combined and Pure; we teach it the same way.
No surprises. The structure is the same week to week — students settle in fast.
"My child scored A1 for Combined Science in his O level exam. He joined Genie since March 2025. I’m impressed with the result. Thanks for walking through this journey with him."
Both branches see Sec 3 / 4 Combined Science students from across the north and west of Singapore — across both G3 and G2 subject levels. A snapshot of the schools currently in our classes.
Combined Science (Bio/Chem) asks students to write structured answers in Biology and handle calculation chains in Chemistry. The questions below cover how we teach both rhythms — keyword-led answering for Bio, stepwise working for Chem.
