Know all you need about Novicate tutoring

How long do I have access to the VCE Training Portal?
  • If paying by year: You have until the end of the VCE subject exam (If 1/2 - Then until end of school year)

  • If paying by term: You have until the end of the upcoming term, unless you pay for the following term

What skill level are these programs for?
  • All of Novicate’s tutoring programs are designed to a high Raw 40+ level. This means they go through VCAA-assessable content at a level comprehensive and complex enough to achieve that score.

  • For students scoring B’s, C’s and even D’s: These programs do the hard work for you and compiles all you’ll need to boost your VCE scores. With access to a Raw 50 tutor to get feedback on your answers, you’ll definitely see a rapid improvement in your answers as long as you put in the work.

  • For students scoring A’s: These programs will take you from Raw 40+ standard and give you a clear structure on what a Raw 50 standard looks like in terms of depth of content understanding, how to answer questions and how to approach revising for the exam.

If I can’t attend a live class, what happens then?

Once you’re assigned a tutorial class group, that will be your group for the year.
If you can't make the occasional tutorial session DO NOT WORRY
We know student lives are hectic, which is why ALL sessions will be recorded and uploaded for you to review after! And of course, you'll be able to ask any questions afterwards in the Novicate discord hub.

If you know it will be extremely difficult to attend live classes but would still like to access the VCE Training Portal and get discord support
Then you should sign-up for the silver program, specifically designed for self-paced and independent study students.

If I need more help outside of the tutorial classes how can I get this?

As part of the Gold or Silver program you’ll get access to the private Novicate Biology Discord. There you’ll be able to post questions and get personalised answers from 0.1% VCE Educators and other high-achieving students. It’ll be like having a tutor in your pocket whenever you need until the final exams.

How do Gold and Silver Programs differ?

The silver programs has everything that the gold does, minus the weekly live classes (and live tickets to revision programs if you purchase the comprehensive options). Here’s how to decide between the two:

  • Usually students who are already high-performing and self-motivated, but are simply searching for premier structured resources and support answering questions choose the silver program.

  • For students who need extra support, more live attention and live classes with a consistent time to study each week, the gold program is a better option.

How does the Novicate 1-on-1 Tutoring Guarantee Work?

To show our commitment to maximising your VCE performance, we’re offering a guarantee - Join any of our programs and if you don’t improve your scores, we’ll provide free 1-on-1 tutoring until you do.

To be eligible for this guarantee you must:

  1. Be an enrolled student

  2. Have complete a Novicate Topic Test and uploaded your scores on the VCE Training Portal form

  3. On your second Novicate Topic Test, if you notice a decline in your performance, then you can reach out to us via novicateacademy@gmail.com. In your email you must provide evidence of (2.) and (3.)

  4. You will then be allocated a 1-on-1 tutor who will work with you to create a new study plan. You will have, completely free, 30 minutes of tutoring each week until your scores improve.

You will be allowed, and even encouraged, to ask regular questions to the tutors in the Novicate discord as part of your VCE improvement process.
