Urgent Message for Year 12 Students Going onto Year 13!!!!!

if u are currently in year 12 and are going onto year 13,, please read this!!!!

im a year 13 student who's in the process of sitting their biology a level exams and guys,, im going to be so real - my entire sixth form started revising for biology paper 1 yesterday.

i was the only one who studied properly,, with months of prep,
so it was a bit wild experiencing these things:

a) hearing their answers after the paper (i heard somebody say a similarity between cellulose and starch is that they have rna and water - NOT even kidding)
b) seeing them approach me and then claim that they know more about "x" topic, and then talking about a whole lot of nothing which made no sense (claiming they knew about DNA replication and then talking about tumor growth instead)
c) seeing one of them get caught trying to hide their phone while we were walking to the exam

and my PERSONAL highlight
d) half the class had printed out EVERY past paper since 2018 and they were completing them AS we were lining up for the paper LOL

this may sound like a troll message - but im being serious.. my yeargroup was a MESS.

long story short - if anybody is reading this in the future

please study --- this stuff isnt that hard once u get into a routine of just remembering the same facts over and over again -- lets just face it, the color of a reducing agent will not go from brick red to RGB,, the content will ALWAYS stay the same.

on average, an A is around 50-something(ish) %,, so as long as you're in that region/higher ,, you'll be alright
if you need any revision resources, please message me - i went from failing the subject to averaging out A*'s in the span of a month

i wish everybody the best of luck and
DONT LEAVE REVISION TO THE LAST SECOND!!!!
im 90% sure my sixth form just set the grade boundary curve for the entire country,, and im the only one who actually stands a chance of having a good grade at the end of it all

this is ur final year (or you're approaching it or whatever)

dont waste it.

good luck.

wanted to note that i forgot to link my resources

savemyexams is great for organising past paper questions but BY topic,,, so its best to print each pack out and then completing them,, and then with every question you get incorrect; you turn them into flashcards

quizlet link for paper 1 content (past paper questions that i've compiled from 2016-current day): https://quizlet.com/_d3s1d5?x=1jqt&i=40kamu
