Jadine Khan There are no updates to the HSB syllabus so the topics are the same.

[@cxcbiologytutor]

So it was brought to my attention today that the HSB syllabus has indeed been amended by CXC for exams effective from May/June 2022. There is an SBA component which involves a case study on a current health-related or environmental issue and its socio-economic effects in your territory.

[@Khanjadine]
