Yeah I know what you mean, BY5 for some reason is more easier to gain marks than BY4 Q_Q

The ms for by5 tends to be more lenient, and more application based

I'm absolutely terrified for BY4 and BY5. BY1 and 2 both went badly last year even though I felt I knew the whole syllabus - it's the WJEC mark schemes that do it for me. Normally what I say is right, or very close to, but the wording is wrong so marks get lost. :frown: ARGH
is everyone ready for this? any predictions for the essay? I really wanted synaptic transmission to come up but it came up in jan 2014 so urghhhhhh
Batch fermenter
Nitrogen cycle
Light dependent stage
Comparing photosynthesis and resp
Populations (?) explaining all the phases?
Osmoregulation in mammals
Anaerobic respiration
Generation of nerve impulse
Reflex arc
