thanks 4 uploading i couldn't find the paper other than mark scheme and report. it would be great if you could download aqa chem 1 2012 paper. thanks again
In AS I got aaabb with the b's being in chemistry and biology, it really made me realise i need to focus more on them.
In these January exams I got an A and and A* in A2 chem and bio because i worked so much harder for them this year.
So yes, it is possible to achieve your target grades, whether they be ds or as, it just depends on how hard you work to get them (oh, and if the examiners are feeling generous when writing and making your paper!)
that's really encouraging, thank you! these were my first january modules, so i'm revising really hard and building on my exam technique so that I can pull them up in June

I just typed up everything from lessons and the textbooks in my own words. For biology, I also made crosswords, flashcards and mnemonics and it seemed to work alright. Doing the same for these June exams and hoping it works out again.

Good luck in your exams!
thankyou! you too! even though you seem naturally clever lol i dont think i would cope with 5 subjects at AS lol ..is typing all your notes time consuming? and did you do loads of past papers? are you with ocr for bio and chem? do you also do the old spec (legacy) papers on the website..sorry for all these questions lol i wish i was you!

Psssh, I'm not anymore naturally clever than anyone else, I just made sure I knew the specification/textbook inside out (particularly for biology). It was pretty time-consuming and still is, but if you do a bit each night it's manageable! Did most of the current/legacy past papers for both subjects (some of them in class). Compared to last year, I'm doing about 100x more revision.
As for the 5 subjects bit, the 5th one was graphic design, so not particularly taxing revision-wise, though it did eat up lots of my time for other subjects.
I have OCR for bio/chem, I can share some revision tips by PM if you're doing the same?
