Hey Guys,

Have you heard what's been going on about the biology AQA exam ? People have been complaining on LBC.

Yeah I have!! I hope it doesn't happen for mine next week

That's good :smile:

and it depends how other people did as well, but hopefully you got really high marks so high grade boundaries aren't a worry

That's very true we will have to play the waiting game from now on :biggrin:

Indeed we will...it's killing me not being able to look at mark schemes immediately after walking out of the exam hall like I did for my mocks though!! It's going to be so hard waiting until the end of August! :s-smilie:

Your science exams are quite late...you're lucky! Although the one I sat yesterday wasn't at all that bad unlike what lots of people are saying. I think people just want the popularity tbh (for the OCR exam) as if you revised it really wasn't that hard...

Sort of glad we don't do AQA now! :h:

Hello, there! I'm also doing OCR Gateway B for my Core Science, I have my Unit 1 on the 25th May and I'm very desperate for that A* and I know I can trust you. My Unit 2 is arriving in 10th June. I also need help on Section D parts too. You don't helping me, right? It's okay, if you don't want to. Thanks :smile:

Haha i did that exam :biggrin:

It wasn't even that bad although i didn't like the off topic questions about ' independent companies' but then again it was manageable :wink:

Unrelated questions. Something business related and it asked what the favourite type of alcohol for a 15 year old would be.

Yep it said what is an 'independent company' ?
The rats one was just a graph and you had to describe it basically

Yeah same - and I suppose it is good but also annoying that I have the sciences (especially biology) at times when I have 5/6 exams a week. Although Physics is the very last exam so I have plenty of time to revise it which is good so I should count my blessings :biggrin:

Of course I will help you - what is it specifically you don't understand? :smile:

No worries. Thanks. I've got a feeling this is going to happen again in a few of the other exams.

I have heard about it and saw the petition. Apparently it was mostly about applying your knowledge and something. Is there something else I'm missing?

That's exactly what I told my father. However, there are many people complaining so I don't really know.

Update 18/05/2016
I can't believe I've askedy completed 7 exams in 3 days! Still got 15 to go! Today was mainly resting as I was tired from English booster and the exams I have today.
I managed to do:
- shape and space past paper 44/50
- poetry comparisons- looked at two poems
- and managed to clean my room which was full of past papers! (I know, this isn't actually something :colondollar:

)

Going to read AAM before I sleep for English lit

I know this is not directed at me but I think I can help. I did the exam last year and got an A*. What I would advice you to do is do lots of past papers. You might have already done it but there are similarities between past papers. For instance, from what I remember, B2 you have to apply your knowledge about adaptions and this usually comes up. And for Section D, i would advice you to learn how to calculate percentage change and do again lots of questions on it.
Good luck. :smile:
