that was one of the easiest papers i've ever sat. my whole school finished so early. some even left half way through cos they finished early !!
I got 0.6 recurring for the malaria Q

I wrote relay neurone for the CNS thing

I wrote that a receptor may be a hot pan and an effector would be moving your arm away

I wrote about mutations for the horse onefor the last question was it indicator species or animals as I wrote about lichens

I wrote that alcohol is legal recreational

I wrote on the first page that the company is unrelated to the drug company then for the question after that so that it's not bias

I wrote for the six marker
;water to hydrate
proteins for cell repair/replacement and growth
fats to store energy
carbohydrates to release energy
fibre to keep everything in the digestive system running smoothly
calcium for strong bones and teeth

I wrote that eh hypothesis wasn't valid because girls drank more in all of the categories except the beer one

I didn't have enough time to check either! An extra 15 minutes would've helped

It was a scatter graph about snails, maybe there wasn't a question about the graph except why use a scatter graph or something like that?

Some of the questions were unusual, like the independent company one


Yeah, it seemed like AQA were trying to throw us off
