the exam was really good! much better than paper 1. kinda dissapointed that the 2 6 markers were on topic 3 and topic 6, bc they're usually the hardest to apply. apart from that, everything went well!

the duration was 0.8s, so 60/0.8 = 75bpm

I got a duration of 8.6, I hope they're a little lenient with that but likelihood is that they won't be

I think personally I found the seed-bank question the hardest, I tired to talk about how the government would put more effort into conserving the highest economic valued plants because of money but then I read it back and it was the stupidest thing I've ever wrote in my life because it just sounds like im repeating myself.

Bro I wish I had more time I barely answered some questions... The 6 markers I didn't even have time to think I just wrote down random **** that had nothing to do with Biology. But honestly I don't think it was the WORST paper.

What ungodly being possessed edexcel to put that much information for the seed bank study question there was no need for that at all

No frrrrr. I didn't even have time to read the qs properly and when I finally realized it was talking about seed banks I just started saying some random **** about exsitu conservation and its advantages lmfao.

What did u guys write for the second inheritance question (fully colourblind). Was it caused by recessive allelle found on both X and Y chromosome?

Yeah I literally said it was a sex-linked disease and because the mom was a carrier the male will inherit it since he has to inherit one X chromosome from his mother only.

I ran out of time, missed so many marks as a result, only 90 mark but the longest of questions, especially application… literally just reading the questions took up most of the time, I’m so worried now on how I did 😭
