Guide: Tahsili Achievement Test (Science)
A complete guide: every question type and how to solve it, memory tables and formulas, mnemonics, and questions to try yourself. Prepare for Tahsili…
- Meet the Tahsili test: The Tahsili (Achievement Test for science majors) measures what you actually learned in secondary Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics. Universities combine it with the GAT and your school…
- Math 1 (Grade 10): A geometry and reasoning book: logic and conditionals, parallel lines and slope, congruent triangles and triangle relationships.
- Math 2 (Grade 11): Functions, matrices, polynomials and complex numbers, then inverse, radical and rational functions, sequences, probability and trigonometry.
- Math 3 (Grade 12): The heaviest maths book: analysing functions, exponentials and logs, trig identities, conics, vectors, polar coordinates, statistics, and limits, derivatives and integrals.
- Physics 1 (Grade 10): Measurement, motion in one and two dimensions, forces and Newton’s laws.
- Physics 2 (Grade 11): Gravitation, rotation, momentum, work, energy and thermal energy.
- Physics 3 (Grade 12): States of matter, waves, sound, light, mirrors, lenses and interference, then static electricity and electric fields.
- Chemistry 1 (Grade 10): Matter and its properties, atomic structure and radioactivity, chemical reactions, and the mole.
- Chemistry 2 (Grade 11): Electrons and the periodic table, ionic, covalent and metallic bonding, stoichiometry, states of matter and gases.
- Chemistry 3 (Grade 12): Mixtures and solutions, acids and bases, redox, and electrochemistry.
- Biology 1 (Grade 10): The study of life and classification, bacteria and viruses, protists and fungi, and invertebrates: sponges, cnidarians, worms, molluscs and arthropods.
- Biology 2 (Grade 11: 2-1, 2-2, 2-3): Vertebrates and plants, the cell and its energy, human body systems, immunity, cell division, Mendelian and complex inheritance, and molecular genetics.
- The last-night sheet: Every constant, unit and number that keeps coming up in Tahsili, on one page. Read it the night before and the morning of the test.
- Test-day strategy: It is a long test covering three years; managing time and staying calm are part of the score.
