Could always request a copy back and get your teacher to go through it and see if its worth a remark just for that 1 mark?
& Thanks hahah
Erm I don't really do anything special, I just rewrite and reread my notes until I can say them out loud without looking at the paper. Then just the usual of doing tons of past papers and questions.

Re: AQA BIOL2 ~ 21 May 2012 ~ AS BiologyAt the start, I detested Unit 2 — I even found the most boring, lacklustre topics on Unit 1 more interesting. However, after some time, I've began to prefer Unit 2 overall. It seems easier IMHO(Original post by Rorywilk)

Re: AQA BIOL2 ~ 21 May 2012 ~ AS BiologyWell done! I got 94 somehow!(Original post by Mocking_bird)
Hey there! I got an A, 88/100
How did you do?
-------------------------------
How much have you all covered of Unit 2? (Besides those who have already done it and are retaking)
Im worried my class is behind, we've only covered 2 booklets (DNA and Variety) since January since we've been doing ISA's and all that aswell. We have done all the topics except classification (just started that today!)

Re: AQA BIOL2 ~ 21 May 2012 ~ AS Biology110(Original post by rommy123)
Mee to, What did you get in biol 2 last year?
1 raw mark from an A; 2 UMS from an A.
Only a stupid 13 raw mark difference between 110 UMS and 140 UMS!
Could always request a copy back and get your teacher to go through it and see if its worth a remark just for that 1 mark?
