I likely will be for the last time, AQA though. AQA screwed me over on the A2 Chemistry Unit 4 royally
Same ill be resting unit 4 and 5 biology AQA. Can not be arsed to learn all that content again. but this is the last shot for me anyway
Same with me, OCR MEI's C4 exam screwed me 5 UMS off an A too.

Best of luck with the Unit 5 stuff, all that genetics shmuck is brutal.
If you need any help with Unit 4 stuff I got 93% on it when I originally did it so if you need any help on it drop me a pm :smile:

I haven't done maths yet but C4 looks hardcore. Best of luck with that :smile:
You too, retaking some Biol, Chem and Maths modules will be pretty brutal this year but I hope it's all worth it in the end. :smile:
thanks so much man, i will do if i need to!

Exactly! , thats the best apportunity for us,
That's good I think you'll Be more prepared, cuz you know all of them.

I'm starting to revise from now tbh, then starting past papers like in few months,I feel like I need to be prepared this time and start all over again even tho I know it but you never know how the papers might come this year.

I wants to go to the university of Birmingham, wbu?

Thats nice,I will start soon too and past papers i will start around jan time.Yea...best to go through all the content from scratch again,i might make new notes too.Problem for me and most people is the questions are sometimes crazy,in bio u put time and effort to revise all the content and they give questions which u dont understand at the end lol.

I wanna go to Bradford or leeds to do chem eng.Birmingham is nice university,really like the library their lol.

Omg yes! In Biology the papers are so hard! Like I was so ready for paper f215 more than f214 ended up with a B in f214. I thought I did well in f215 and got a low grade , literally not even exaggerating I worked so hard for f215 literally and because of one paper I got screwed up! But hopefully now we will have time to improve our exam skills and stuff.

Bradford is a good university! They offered me
A place this year to do clinical sciences with them,but it's too far from where I live. The support there is amazing!
