How good are you at Science?

Here are some online tests for you to try. They are aimed at year 9 students, but have a go anyway. There are two types. In exam mode you are timed and get your score at the end. In learning mode you can see the answer after each question. Try them and post your score as a comment - FIRST NAME AND FORM ONLY - no prizes. For year 11's there are more online tests on the IG past papers page.
