I'm not so bothered about the exam paper as, however random and not applicable some of the questions were (standard form and s = d/t as well as drunk rats!), I didn't think it was too bad (I'm hopeful for at least an A) and hopefully the grade boundaries should be nice and low. However, I am REALLY cross about all the topics I've learnt that didn't come up at all. All of the revision I did in the 48 hours before the exam was pointless, I feel like it was mainly logic!

I'm sorry but most these topics came up last year and they're not going to use the same questions, it should've been obvious they would do mostly different topics

But nooooo it was on the components of a balanced diet. Makes complete sense and it so appropriate.

Hi everyone,

Good luck to everyone sitting this exam on the 17th May and get revising if you haven't. :tongue:

This is the official general exam thread where you can post ANYTHING related to the Biology Unit 1 Exam (B1 AQA). :biggrin:

Drunk rats? Independent companies? 15-year-old kids favourite alcohol? Nothing from the specification actually came up. Thanks AQA

I seem to have done a different paper to some of Britain, and I found this exam quite hard! I felt surprised that barely anything about enzymes or homeostasis or malaria came up. There was quite a lot of data analysis which is kind of unusual for a B1 paper.
