AQA. I love Biology a lot and enjoying the lessons very much. I do fine with the homework tasks but when we do assessments / past papers, I just can't get good grades despite how much effort and revision I put in. I missed all of unit 1 (Biological Molecules) because I was doing a different subject from September and ended up switching. I also only did Core Science at GCSE and feel at a major disadvantage to everybody else in the year and the country taking Biology!! But yeah I guess so far it's ok...

Ah I was with WJEC :redface: admittedly a while back now.

If you need any help feel free to message me, I'll reply as and when I can (current finalist with my research project going on and coursework/ revision). If not post on here and someone will answer any question or queries you have :smile:

Would say that too many students are too focused on exams to appreciate this thread and to have a passion for this natural science. I suppose so.

I'll join :biggrin: i did 3 hours of revison for biology in the library today and forgot my food and drink so i was pretty hungry.


Yeah, I have that issue when wanting to study in library for hours. You forget to have food I usually: skip it and starve/ spend tonnes of money using the vending machine.
I also usually, if I remember, eat before I go to the library and get a meal from town. that's a good tip. I've never liked carrying food around in my bag as it gets too warm.

I would always eating hours before going to the library. Just because it is so difficult to study and being focused on biological subject matters, if you have a full stomach. :wink: That does not apply for revision in Biology, but also for another subjects.
Why are biology societies so dead ?Sigh.

I thought you're not allowed to bump a thread which has been inactive more than a year?

A man walks into a bar and asks for some adenosine triphosphate.

The barman replies "that'll be 80p"
Whoa, it is really been a while that this society had inspiring conversation, but I don't know where I can ask this special question.

@charco maybe you can help me (I am sure you can):

When a bonds of amino acids to peptides are exactly considered as a polypeptide? at 20 bonds? 100? does a certain number of a sequence exist anyway?

Generally oligopeptides are up to around 20 residues and polypeptides are thought of as have 50 residues (amino acids)
