Does anyone know when their EMPA is yet?

Also after everyone has had their mocks do you think anyone will be able to upload the June 2013 paper with the mark scheme as our school does not allow us to actually keep our mocks ?

What's EMPA? Is this for AQA?

I wouldn't use them up too early. Just use them when u feel you're ready because they are quite valuable.

Personally I'm not starting them until I feel I know the spec inside out.

I plan to use two or three only, nearer to mocks. I feel ok with the content but I just need to keep going over it and practice application Qs.

I'll probably start doing all the papers from end of April/early May.

Sounds good! I just hate being rushed into doing papers -.- especially when teachers are feeling lazy and can't be bothered to give proper work so just make u do the papers before they've even covered the topics properly.

Yeah same here, I like doing past papers when I'm ready and once all the content is covered. I'm happy that unit 4 is covered so I have a long, long time to prepare for the exam.

I'm worried about when my teachers will finish unit 5 though. As well as preparing for the essay. :s-smilie:

So far judging by what I've seen of unit 5 it seems far more interesting and enjoyable than the content in unit 4.

I'm really enjoying some aspects of unit 5, I love the neuron stuff but I don't really enjoy the DNA sections though.

Unit 4 is ok, I hate populations, inheritance and hardy weinberg-so boring!
