The question comes immediately after joining, how can educational skills be developed and excellence achieved in the advanced track? In this article, we will provide you with the best answer to achieve excellence in the advanced track in the Emirates, as well as give a comprehensive overview of the advanced track materials and the best way to develop skills in these materials, and the various advanced track specializations that qualify for university admission, as well as we will discuss advanced track schools, and the difference between the advanced and general track.
What is the advanced track?
The advanced track is one of the educational tracks available for admission from the ninth grade to the twelfth grade. Students can apply for the advanced track in the ninth grade and the tenth grade as well. The advanced track is characterized by teaching scientific subjects, namely mathematics, chemistry, physics, and biology in a deeper way. There are also some subjects taught in English, which gives the student an additional advantage when entering the university. The advanced track also provides the possibility of studying a third language, as well as studying the Chinese language, which provides the possibility for the student to enroll in foreign universities and obtain many scholarships in local and foreign universities.
What are the advanced track subjects in the UAE?
The advanced track in the Emirates studies many academic subjects, but as we mentioned previously, the advanced track studies scientific subjects in a more in-depth and intensive manner than the general track. The scientific subjects for the advanced track that are studied are as follows:
- Advanced Physics.
- Advanced mathematics.
- Advanced Chemistry.
- Advanced Biology.
As mentioned earlier, some science subjects are taught in English. Physics is taught in English in grades 9 and 10 in the Northern Emirates, mathematics is taught in English in grades 9 to 11, biology is taught in English in grade 9, and chemistry is taught in English in grade 10. In Abu Dhabi, all of these subjects are taught in English.
The advanced track materials shared with other tracks are as follows:
- Arabic language material.
- English language material.
- Islamic education material.
- Social studies.
- Computer science.
- Creative design and innovation.
- Health sciences.
- Third Language or Chinese in the Advanced Track Third Language or Chinese Department.
What are the advanced track specializations?
Advanced track specializations are the subjects that qualify for admission to colleges. Advanced track subjects that are not shared with other tracks and that qualify for admission to colleges are as follows:
- Advanced Physics, this subject is applied from the ninth grade to the twelfth grade.
- Advanced Mathematics, this subject is applied from the ninth grade to the twelfth grade.
- Advanced Chemistry, this subject is applied from the tenth to the twelfth grade.
- Advanced Biology, this subject is applied from the ninth to the eleventh grade.
These subjects qualify for the study of the following specializations:

- Arabic language material.
- Islamic education material.
- Computer science material.
- Social studies material.
- English language material.
- Art material.
These subjects are applied from the ninth grade to the twelfth grade, and these subjects qualify for the study of many university specializations such as:
- Sharia and Islamic Studies.
- Business Administration.
- Fine Arts and Design.
- the law.
- Contact.
- Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences.
Advanced Track Schools
There are several advanced track schools distributed in different areas across the UAE. Students are distributed in advanced track schools based on the desire of the student and the guardian, as well as the student’s scores in the achievement test in science and mathematics in the ninth grade for students transferred to the tenth grade, and the tenth grade for students transferred to the eleventh grade. Students are distributed in advanced track and general track schools at a rate of 40% for the advanced track, and 60% for the general track.
How to achieve excellence and success in the advanced track?
All students in the advanced track need to achieve excellence and success to reach the colleges and scientific specializations they dream of. In this article, we help you achieve excellence and success by following some tips that help you develop your educational skills.
- The advanced track relies on understanding, creativity and innovation in absorbing the materials being taught, so students must attend and focus well on the materials being explained in the classrooms, as well as the smart learning and e-learning classes given to students weekly.
- Make sure to understand and comprehend all the study materials well, and apply what has been studied using the applications given by the teachers in the classroom, as this helps to retain the information for a longer period.
- Be sure to attend the activities carried out by teachers in the various subjects, and also be sure to interact with the teacher while performing the activities and be sure to understand all the points related to the activity.
- Continuously review the lessons taught, and make sure that the lessons do not accumulate on the student for a long period.
- Use drawings, diagrams and tree diagrams to summarize and review lessons, as this helps deepen understanding of the material and facilitates retrieval of information.
- Make sure to summarize the material, focusing on the points that are difficult to understand. Summarizing helps to easily retrieve what was previously studied.
- Ensure full use of available learning tools to understand, comprehend and increase achievement.
What is the difference between the advanced track and the general track?
Of course, there are many points that constitute the difference between the advanced track and the general track , and these points are as follows:
- In the advanced track, the subjects of mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology are more intensive and in-depth than their counterparts in the general track, as the advanced track studies the subjects of physics, chemistry, biology and advanced mathematics, which are not taught in the general track with the same depth and intensity.
- General track students need to pass the preparatory year, in which physics, chemistry, biology and mathematics are studied, and in which the student’s grade must not be less than D, while advanced track students do not need to pass this year.
- Advanced track students in the UAE have an additional advantage, which is the ability to join some colleges such as medicine, pharmacy, physiotherapy, and engineering, as well as some departments of the College of Science that are not available for the general track.
- The primary foreign language in the General and Advanced tracks is English, and there are also programmes for teaching a third foreign language or Chinese in both tracks.
- There are subjects specific to the advanced track only, which are, as we mentioned earlier, advanced biology (starting from the eleventh grade), advanced physics, advanced chemistry, and advanced mathematics.
- The General Track and the Advanced Track share some subjects, namely Arabic, English, Islamic Education, Social Studies and National Education, Health Sciences, as well as Computer Science, Creative Design and Innovation.
- Business Administration is added to the general track subjects.
conclusion
The advanced track is one of the distinguished tracks in the secondary stage, which gives the student many privileges, including entering colleges without the need to pass the preparatory year, as well as the possibility of studying many foreign languages, which gives the student additional opportunities for excellence. Therefore, the advanced track requires making an extra effort and ensuring that everything that is taught is well understood and absorbed, as this helps the student to excel and reach the specialization he dreams of easily.
