Unofficial mark scheme?

Unofficial mark scheme?


probly hard to make a bio unofficial mark schem as the questions can have so many different answers and they are very hard to remember
You guys know this bio exam doesn't even go towards our A level mark next year

yeah but it does make up our predicted grades which go to universities unles ur teacher predicts not based off the exam which i highly doubt
anyone got a list of topics that didn't come up on paper 1?
Any predictions for paper 2?
Gas exchange
Mass transport in plants and animals
All the spexies variation topics specifically antibiotic resistance and the practical and clear zone
Aseptic technique
Root plant cells practical
Can anyone please tell me what topics were on paper 1? And what was the application question about.
Thank me later ini

Where did you get this info?
Oh! Thanks for the info. I'm taking 2 gap years though so I won't be needing any offers from universities in the next 3 years. By that time I would have finished my a levels and they will be using my a level grades as a reference not my predicted grades. My teachers also have already done our predicted grades for next year based on all our mocks we've done and will only change them if our as results are horrific
hi can someone tell me ....how the table was supposed to be drawn for question number 1 in the biology practicals that was on the 26 may ?
thank u
What's everyone revising for paper 2
I know not enzymes but forgotten what wasn't on the first paper :/
Im pretty sure I failed the first exam. Did not go well at all.

it doesn't say anywhere in the new spec that we need to know about cholera specifically like the past specification. But i think it'll be good go gather a bit of knowledge on it just in case.

Debatable - The paper might be easy (in terms of the questions) however the mark scheme can be extremely harsh when it comes to the usage of keywords. I was marked down for saying "amino acid sequence" rather than "specific amino acid sequence" in a question.

Also, some have argued that because this is the new specification, the board might lower boundaries to make the spec more appealing, I highly doubt that however as I don't think it will sit well with Ofqual!.




so like easy papers can also have low-grade boundaries ?! is this hat ur trying to say ?if this is the case i still have hope for scoring at least a B on my biology paper 3 .
