A* 50/60
A 43/60
B 34/60
C 26/60

we'll have to ace all the six mark questions cos probably there would be around 2-3 of them in bio

I think it will be higher than 80% as the jan paper was 80% (48/60)and they said they will make the grade boundaries harder like 50/60 soo thats like 83%

Who said? The exam board? (I think 48/60 like you said was a* on jan 2012): But also they must have a minumum of people getting grades, eg. if the exam is hard: lower the boundarys.

yh the end of topic assessments that have been created by the sciencelab for the newspec here is an example http://store.aqa.org.uk/sciencelab/AQA-4401-W-ETAQP-B1.2.PDF
if u want to get others just google aqa end of topic assessments ---then write b1.5 for example

Hopefully six marker won't be one of those "evaluate" ones; they're so tedious and marked so harshly.
