it was okayy the last pagee of B2 wasss poo :/ and thenn the tadpole questionin B3 :frown: how did u find it? and the grade boundaries keepp changind from year to year so if alot of people found it difficult then it maybe quite low
I only did B3:

I found some questions alright and some horrible but overall not too bad but my teacher said that it's the hardest paper he's ever seen. So I don't really know to be honest.

As for marks, I have no clue. Sorry!
I think that the exam was ok, there were no repeated questions from past papers which shocked me, and also there was nothing on biogas generators or fermentation which is what I like! But I'm not sure about how high or low the grade boundaries will be, probably quite average as it wasn't really easy but it wasn't really hard.

Thanks, I found B3 slightly easier than B2, but I really didn't understand the tadpole question! I'd never seen anything like that before

Tadpole needs oxygen. When small it has a high surface area to volume ratio and can do gas exchange across skin.

As it grows it develops... gills for a large surface area for gas exchange and eyes so it can see predators/ food

I'm in exactly the same boat B3 better than B2 seemed to go okay all in all, no kidney questions though and id revised that well :mad:
