Yeah I do.

Honestly people are exaggerating, it wasn't that bad. There were a few bits of tough vocab but nothing obscure. People just complain you know. In fairness, last year's was a joke compared to this but what can you do ?

The first thing I do when I get my paper (well I did in the prelim) was look at the essay questions but I felt confident with them. If not I'll have a quick confer session with the girl sitting behind me :wink:

Isolation/mutation/natural selection or foraging/cooperative hunting/dominance hierarchy/territorial behaviour :L For other one it was structure of mitochondria/cytochrome system or phagocytosis/lymphocytes.

Good new for me is meiosis came up in 2011 in the essay bit so is unlikely to come up for me. Well praying it doesn't :frown:

You sure about that confer session...?

Meiosis has only come up once in the past 12 years, and it was about variation etc which is reasonable, I genuinely have no idea what will come up- dont care anymore :unimpressed:

Probs not but you sit there for about 5 minutes while the invigilators hand out calculators and rulers and pencils and pens to people who come to an exam without them, normally I just look through the exam see what I'm doing and have a chance to think before going straight into it.

I think it has came up quite a few times for us :[

Edit: I just said probs //wrist

Of course it is, but it's up to you to put the work in and actually work hard.

Thanks so much, lost a lot of confidence but now I'm preparing my self for the finals. It's given me a wake up call to put in even more work. May I ask are you currently on s5?
