IB Biology SL
Practice Exams

Revision Village offers three types of IB Biology SL Practice Exams: Popular Quizzes, the Revision Ladder, and Mock Exam Papers. Each serves a different purpose, depending on a student’s revision goals and stage of exam preparation. the Biology SL Popular Quizzes are designed for students who want to test themselves on a specific concept (e.g. Proteins). The Biology SL Revision Ladder covers all Biology SL subtopics, with questions increasing in difficulty from easiest to hardest. The Biology SL Mock Exam Papers are designed to replicate actual IB Biology Standard Level exam papers in terms of length, difficulty, and topic distribution. Additionally, each April and October, Revision Village releases a Prediction Exam—a set of newly written questions designed as a final trial paper before students sit their official IB Biology SL examination papers.

Popular Quizzes are one of the three types of IB Biology SL Practice Exams offered by Revision Village. These short quizzes focus on specific concepts within the Biology SL course (e.g. Homeostasis) and typically last between 30 and 90 minutes—ideal for a single study session. While similar to the Questionbank in targeting individual topics, the Biology SL Popular Quizzes provide an option for students who may not have time to work through all the questions in the Questionbank. This makes the Biology SL Popular Quizzes a valuable tool for focused revision.

Revision Village introduced the Biology Standard Level Revision Ladder to enhance the exam revision process and make the questions more accessible to students who are finding specific topics more challenging. The Biology SL Revision Ladder consists of 10 levels, each increasing in difficulty. The questions across all levels cover the full range of concepts in the IB Biology SL course, making it an excellent starting point for end-of-course revision. Instead of jumping straight into Mock Exams or Past Papers (which can be daunting at the start), students can begin with the Biology SL Revision Ladder, gradually building their confidence as they progress through each level.

The Biology SL Mock Exam Papers are designed to closely simulate the actual exams students will face at the end of their IB Biology Standard Level course. The Mock Exams are Bio SL Practice Exams that are intended for use once students have completed all the topics in the Biology SL course. It is recommended that students attempt the Biology SL Mock Exam Papers under timed, exam conditions to build familiarity and confidence with the difficulty and duration of the IB Biology SL exams.
