How do get an a in a-level ocr a biology??

How do I go about achieving an A/B in A-Level biology??
I've accepted that an A* and even A may be unattainable but, I really need at least a B to get into my university of choice.
If anyone has any suggestions/advice/resources that they have found useful or know anyone who has done well in biology, it would be greatly appreciated if that could be relayed back to me.
Thanks!!

I think the best way to revise is to answer exam questions on the topic because you learn how to use the information and apply it you can find past papers on the ocr website and I would recommend buying the cgp ocr a level biology workbook and revision guide

I will focus on past paper practice until my exams. Thanks for the tips
Are you studying a level Biology?

Hey I'm doing OCR A Biology as well (taking exam in June) and my teacher has been so, so helpful with resources - I almost have too much to know what to do with! I use these sites:

https://app.senecalearning.com/classroom/course/c02d7745-273e-45a9-a800-2b0239c0fb6c

We also do loads of old past papers (most are from the old spec, but that doesn't matter too much, as exam technique and most topics still apply). Our teachers have given us about 25 papers each and although I don't know exactly where they got them from, you can find some on this site:

I was given some really helpful advice by one of my teachers, who said to start off revising by doing a couple of past papers on no revision, without looking at your notes. Then when you mark the paper you can really see where your weaknesses lie, and which topics to go over first. Biology is so content-heavy that it's easy to get bogged down in making endless notes, but a lot of the exam is getting the right technique in your answers and knowing what the mark scheme wants you to say.

Hope that helped

One more thing; what revision have you started doing now and which other A-Levels do you do if you don’t mind me asking

No, I don't mind! I'm doing maths, biology and French. I've only properly started revising today (the beginning of the easter holidays for me), which is probably a bit too late haha, but have been supplementing notes/doing practice questions sporadically for the last three or four weeks. I did a past paper for biology today and have made a list of the topics I struggled with. I'll go back over those topics tomorrow and make notes/use seneca, then do some questions specific to those topics. I have a part-time job and am working 10.5hr shifts 3 days a week over this easter, so for me it's just a case of fitting everything in now

Hi hope you don't mind me asking but is seneca any good and do you have premium??
