Edexcel AS Biology - 6B101 + 6B102 - Unit 1 and Unit 2 Exam Discussion Thread

Also, the question about obesity without having high blood pressure and suggest what they should do and why this would reduce CVD risk (or something along those lines) , the one after the BMI question. Am I correct in thinking that increasing exercise would help because it would create an energy balance, use up fat reserves and therefore reduce blood cholesterol levels and risk of a CVD.

yes i got all what you've said but can't remember what D was for the first multiple choice?
Actually I can remember and yes you're right.

believe it was 0.32...but 13.5 is correct.

Yeah that's correct, though I put diet instead!

I got 0.14, but 13.5 was definitely right



I know the feel


On a personal level I think this retake went really well, fairly sure I didn't drop more than 18 marks tops, the grade boundaries would have to be exceptionally high for it not to be A. Achieved what I set out to so **** yeah! Hope it went well for everyone else too

This was a retake for me and I kept writing pKa instead of kPa....ugh chemistry

I'm so ****ING stupid; I put 0.14 and 13.5 initially then I decided to be an absolute DICKHEAD and put down 3.2s and 0.5kPa..... UDFNODNJAFSJDNL;DFKJAJKPDOEIFADV

58 maybe???

Cheers, i'm happy now, this exam seems to have gone far too well........... just wait until unit2

2 marks, it was only 2 marks! I've made a lot of silly mistakes, probably ended up with a B, but hey it's still better than last years E haha.

I know I know but you use those numbers for the other questions later on so snjdfkslagsgalsffnd... oh well. Just have to absolutely KILL unit 4/5 now.

Wait I put 0.14 is it correct?

Wait I put 0.14 is it correct?

Same, I'm already dreading unit 5

Supposedly. I put 3.2(????) and 0.5kPa because my thought pattern was that, if the valves are closed, then surely the pressure would start increasing (which it did up to 0.5kPa)...ugh i dunno anymore

Haven't touched my unit 5 notes in like months... haven't done past papers for either.
