But they mainly put emphasis on Advanced highers right? Doesn't really concern me though as not really planning on applying to BMAT unis :P

Well when you apply they'll put emphasis on your highers first and your predicted adv. second since you already have results for one, and no guarantee for the other. But obviously conditionals will only be about adv. although I think some English unis will ask for Band 1 in Chemistry for certain students

Some of the 2015 old Higher past papers have been released on the SQA website for:
Administration, Biology, Biology (Revised), Chemistry, French, Gaelic Learners, Graphic Communication, Human Biology, Human Biology (Revised), Italian, Modern Studies, Politics, RMPS, Russian, Sociology, Spanish, Urdu. I think that's them all.

Only Admin appears to have the answer scheme uploaded with it, but the link is broken. I'm guessing this means the SQA will be uploading all the papers throughout the weekend?

Why don't they put upload the answers too ? It's rather annoying right ?
