Is anyone sitting the Higher Human Biology Exam on Thursday?
Hey
I’m actually really nervous ! I know a lot of it will be problem solving and i’m worried about the extended responses. How are you feeling?

I'm so scared. Especially after the exam last year. Lets just hope they're nice to us.
Also apparently they lowered the number of problem solving questions this year, so don't be too worried
Pretty confident, its definitely one of my better subjects

Yeah I’m really hoping they’re nice!!! They never gave us any help so I hope it’s alright. What do you think the extended response will be?

I sat higher human last year and I'm sitting advanced biology on Thursday. Good luck! Do you feel ready?
Thank you! Good luck to you too!!! I’ve done all the past papers but it’s just remembering everything that’s hard and it’s just luck with what comes up tbh so hopefully the SQA are nice 🙏

I do normal and found the exam easy, I managed to count up the marks that I deffo got so i'm sitting at a low A/ high B
I thought it was quite bad tbh. See for the sympathetic nerve question on the heart and small intestine, what did you write?

lucky you guys advanced higher was so bad
For the question in section 2 where it asked to name the type of blood vesssel which is causing the heart pain, what did yous write?

I wrote coronary artery.
Also for the question where it asked to make the layer found in arteries and veins?

First I wrote lumen but then changed it to endothelium cells

I said about the haemorrhage of blood vessels in the retina but idk if I’ll get the mark, hope so 🤞there was quite a lot of graphs and tables to analyse too which was annoying
