Elizabeth Blackburn Sciences entry prep, built for young scientists
Year 10 and Year 11 entry to Melbourne's specialist science school at University High School.
Elizabeth Blackburn Sciences is Victoria's specialist science program for senior students, housed at University High School in Parkville. Entry is competitive and science-first: the selection process weighs science and mathematics aptitude heavily, alongside English and an interview that looks for genuine scientific curiosity.
EduPrism prepares students for EBSS with the same model that has placed students across Victoria's selective schools — a matched small group, one expert tutor every session, and preparation calibrated to the actual demands of the assessment, from written components through to the interview.
EBSS selects students who think like scientists. We build that thinking weekly — in the exam room and in the interview.
