Good luck with your chemistry :smile: well its very hard to revise for general studies, as it is so "general" :/ Yeah I'm AQA, I don't have any resources either, I'm just looking over my notes on how long to spend on each question...

yeah, I didn't write much about the last question, pretty much the same point over and over that more coverage results in greater participation due to role models and learning about the sport.

how much did you write for the last 2? just shy of 2 pages for either question here

Ahhh I didn't talk about role models or learning about the sport :frown:
I wrote about a page and a bit for each :/ and less on the last because I ran out of time

RE, Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Biology here :smile: I can't wait for next year so I'm only doing 3, this is too many subjects for me to concentrate on and was a really stressful month of exams. Going to take this weekend off from revision as a break then do relaxed revision over the next week - still have 5 or so exams left to come :colonhash:
Oooh i had one too today :woo: have you done AQA? :colondollar:
