Aqa bio empa

Hi guys, i have my bio empa coming up i was doing past year empa papers. I managed only a 31/50 in June 2011 empa. Is that a lot? I check online and the grade boundary for A is 40/50 which i find hard to achieve. Any advice given would be great!

31/50 is not great. For practical exams, the marks required to attain high grades are unusually high due to the cheating that occurs in various centres.
This year though, the boards are being more strict. Perhaps the grade boundaries will reflect this. I sure hope so!

Familiarizing yourself with the topic of the EMPA as well as practising the 'How Science Works' and Stats questions is the most you can do, I'm afraid.

You can't discuss live exams anyway, the teacher has to tell you a week before
