Feel free to share some revision tips & any predictions, proceeding that so-called "horrible" B1 exam on the 17th.

Enzymes wasn't on B2 last year, very likely it will play a big part this year

Yes! I will be so happy! I have done a lot of revision today on enzymes. Also last year there was no mitosis/meiosis.
What do you think the 6 marker will be?

After what they did in B1, I doubt they will repeat their mistakes. It will be fine! :smile:

I really don't know, I still have most of the past papers to do and look at :frown:

just flicked through them now and it could be on animal and plant cells? it does seem quite basic but so was the B1 6 marker, which i hadnt revised because i thought it was 'too easy' and i missed out fibre in my answer :frown:

Ok thank you! :smile:

I think you are right, all of the unit 1 6 markers seemed almost TOO simple!

Despite B1, they can't really change the paper - they never knew the exam was going to be hard

Exactly. does sunshine not realise that the papers are made months in advance, so it will probably be the same.

I agree! I love the advantages and disadvantages ones though, but I think they raise grade boundaries! :frown:

I know the papers are made in advance just that I doubt it will as analytical, and there will be more questions containing real science, as b2 and b3 are quite content heavy.
