    Hi F212 people!
    At school we got given a revision disc with loads of past questions (from the previous specification) that are relevant to this course.

    I've uploaded them to Google Docs, and they should be viewable from the below link:

    https://docs.google.com/open?id=0By8...U5EN2RDcmtBU2s

    This includes questions for F211, F212, F214 and F215

    Please +ve rep if this has been helpful!

    Its so stupid how they expect us to know protein synthesis but not actually include it substantially in the textbook or in teaching :P
    I know! It's pathetic!!!

    Finised the spec in class. We've got a last minute coursework today just to try and boost some marks (everyone's) My revision of F211 has been going great but I've done so little of F212, I hate how just about anything can come up! Do they really expect me to be remembering the sizes of different organelles!?
    I've been using www.youtube.com/crashcourse for some revision :love:

    I always lose easy marks on the image size/actual size/magnification because I can't convert my units.
