    AQA A2 biology revision guide
    Hi, I've just done my AS exams so starting A2 soon. I used CGP guide for AS but mainly as a source of questions & I hear the content isn't necessarily detailed enough?

    Want to buy an A2 guide now so any recommendations/reviews (CGP or others)

    Thank you

    Hi,

    Are you AQA Biology?

    I'd recommend the CGP guide for Unit 4, it had some useful diagrams and ways of explaining the harder sections like Respiration and Photosynthesis. It's good for unit 4.

    However, I don't think it is adequate enough for unit 5. Some key parts seem to be missing, especially in the genetics section.

    This will make no sense to you, if you are not doing AQA.
