    Remember the rules about discussion of Edexcel exams

    I don't see a thread on any of the exams I took yesterday yet, but as far as I can tell it's past 12AM and 4AM and I can talk bout them.

    Edexcel Biology B3 - Pretty good really, an entire set of questions was just data handling and some questions were phrased in a difficult way but I knew most of the knowledge.
    Edexcel Religious Studies - Pretty horrible sets of questions especially the 8 markers, but I did what I could. Felt like I didn't write enough for the big markers though. There were no philosophical questions in there, something I was looking forward to expanding my answers on.



    I felt quite similar, and I run out of time, and there were some questions that I thought were worded weird.

    Common sense and perhaps a few key terms. You did have to describe a coalition, for example. And write an essay style answer at the end, choose one of three things. So you need someknowledge. It's simple though.

    Hey guys, to all those who took the AQA Economics Unit 11 GCSE today (Friday 18th May), the first question kinda threw me - about the dad and the stage of his PLC... What did you guys put - I put in that he's in Late Adult stage.

    The biology b3 went quite well however I would've liked it much more if it included the micro-organism stuff I memorised, it was all about animals, the only question that got me kinda thinking was the brine and it's uses in producing soy sauce. Otherwise it went quite well and hopefully all my sciences go that well and with that confidence
