What do you think grade boundaries will be?
Was a pretty good/ok paper imo, dropped maybe 10 marks I reckon, really odd last question though, didn't realise they expected us to know about that kind of thing.

I explained water will enter down water pot grad, from high to low via osmosis..

then I talked about the adhesion/cohesion of water molecules as they are pulled up Xylem under pressure gradient, high to low under tension - jus the transpiration process
I'm glad everyone else found that relatively hard too. I hope the other 3 papers aren't like that one :frown:

I didn't think it was that bad but I've probably dropped a load of marks :frown:

It was actually quite good except for the Stem cell and last heart question. I think i should have gotten at least a c/b IJN

How was F211 today guys? I'm retaking F212 after half term, but mainly going to focus on revising A2 because it's harder:frown:
What is everyone thinking? Im not resiting but in comparison to last years paper harder/easier?

Will anyone release an unofficial mark scheme?

Personally I'd say it was easier, just they threw in more curveballs this year which made it hard to know what to put eg the last question 😑

In one of the questions, Is it ok if I put endodermal (layer) instead of endodermis?
What did everyone get for the last question- labelling parts of the heart?
