    I'm getting so tired from writing notes! So I've been watching some YouTube videos on YouTube dot com / biologybytes. They're really good for brushing up on the facts after you've learnt the topic. Hope it helps you guys too

    Hey, just offering some constructive criticism, your notes are excellent, just one or two mistakes; for F212 on the biological molecules section, starch is not purely amylose- it is coiled chains of amylose and branches of amylopectin. Also, just a minor spelling mistake under glucose - 'simplists', under glycogen you should check the wording 'broken down the glucose very quickly' and just note that OCR now like the term 'brick red' precipitate for the positive test result of reducing sugars with Benedict's. I have combined them with my own notes and have been going through highlighting etc.. That's how I have noticed, I'm only up to Enzymes, but if I see any more I'll notify you. Very well done and the notes are proving very useful to me, thank you.

    Thanks for letting me know, but I don't have the originals of the notes so I can't change it.

    I'm at uni now anyway, so it doesn't matter to me, but I'm sure others appreciate you pointing these out.

    I did the notes very quickly, and I'm not particularly good with words, which is why some of the wording is a bit rubbish!

    They are indeed very useful, don't get me wrong, my teacher provided these style notes last time with her answers to the same questions in your F211, but this unit we're short on time and she hasn't had chance I think, unfortunate as last term it was the best source of information and revision for me, so thank you for doing what my teacher should have done haha =]

    Thank-you for posting these. I have got 5 days until my Biology F212 exam - these are excellent for testing myself with! Plus, I hate Biodiversity and your notes explain it well, the notes my college gives me are so dis-organised and not tailored to the specification as well as these. Thank-you ever so much!
