I haven't done mechanics yet, but apparently it's harder in maths than in physics...

Keeping it generalised, I can say that my Further Maths exams have been the hardest and the Chemistry exams have been the easiest. I've still got to do the Core Maths exams but those should be p*ss easy because I've done them before
Easiest - c2
Hardest - econ paper 2

That's interesting, especially considering that this year was the first year that the new spec got examined, right? Further Maths is just difficult :frown:

Good luck for core!

What kind of stuff do you get examined on in econ? I've never done it :smile:
Easiest to Hardest

Edexcel Economics Paper 2
Edexcel Business Paper 1
AQA Law03
Edexcel Economics Paper 1
AQA Law04

I haven't found anything particularly hard yet. But Law04 gave us 6 aspects in one question that must be established in 30 minutes and we usually get 4 max. This meant I ****ed up writing the right question numbers on extra paper because i ran out of time. So that's my A* out the window and hello B grade all because I wrote question 2 instead of question 1 :s-smilie:

Hardest: Biology paper 1, although I'm sure that will change since I have paper 2 and 3 still to go!

Easiest: Geography unit 4 - I had my answer planned and rehearsed a million times before I went in, it was just about recalling what I'd already planned :h:

Not really, it's so hot today I can't really concentrate! I have two exams on Tuesday too, and I have to revise for both. I think the main things I have left to revise are gene amplification, recombinant DNA, respiration and muscle contraction. How are you feeling about it?

You've done almost the whole spec today?! I wish I had that motivation! I think the last module is not bad it's just got a lot of content in it.

It sounds like biology wasn't a very good paper in general...
Good luck with 2 and 3!

Haha nice. Wish I could do that :frown:
