I've been practicing for the upcoming biology paper 1 (combined science trilogy) exam on Tuesday and all the other sciences in that subject. I understand the content moderately well but when it comes to answering the questions I'll do really poorly. I've looked at why and it's usually because I'll talk about something the question is not really looking for in the mark scheme but what I've said it technically right. I feel that the science mark schemes are quite pedantic whilst the questions being really vague about what they really want you to explain.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I get better i guess at knowing what the questions want? I've been doing many papers and mark schemes and trying to get a feel for what they're wanting me to speak about but i always word it wrong or focus more on the wrong details.
Any advice?
