Official AQA Biology Unit 1 GCSE 5th June 2013 NEW SPEC

I totally agree. I am so happy that there were so many graph questions and not as much knowledge required, cos I literally learned the whole of B1 in less than a week because the last time I dont it was in jan 2012 and it was a late entry. So yeah, very easy

Same here over the weekend I didn't sleep for all of saturday and went to bed at like 11AM on Sunday, recorded my self and then listened to all of it whilst listening to piano music that I played for 20 minutes then played it back through my headphones, it helps me revise and remember so much stuff! So many give away marks especially on the 1 and 2 mark ones, you confident for the chemistry on Monday? And have you got History on Monday in the morning aswell?

I think it will be a bit lower like around 20

like the cytoplasm and membrane thing

Just got my result back for some reason dont know why..

I picked the first one and when I got out the exam I found out that that was the one you?

So it is box one then?! 'Cos that is what I ticked.

I think it was the first one, it must have been because it was a pyramid of biomass!!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/science/edexcel_pre_2011/environment/populationsandpyramidsrev2.shtml this link clearly explains its option 1, as the exam question asked for BIOMASS.

I'll show this to my friend who thinks it's option 3!

Your argument is flawed slightly - I passed your information onto my head of science as I thought you were onto something. But, the quantity of a producer and consumer, doesn't affect a biomass pyramid. As the pyramid is based on biomass not numbers, therefore he said it was option 1.

I don't really see why people are arguing about it to make themselves feel better. Just wait for the results. It might be option 3, but I'm confident it's option 1.

did your teacher said this ? or is this is your own personal prediction?

i asked my head of science, and my teachers, they said because of june its the 3rd box, man even CGP guide says this as well, trust me, im uploading an unofficila mark scheme soon anyways so hold tight

What would you say 49 marks is in this exam?

What about the rest of the grade boundaries? How many marks do you think for an A, B or C? It would be good if the grade boundaries were low but there were some easy questions. Although, the last question was hard about the plant plankton!

Btw which box did you pick for the very last question about the pyramid of Biomass? I put box 1 but I have doubts now as it is currently disputable whether it was box 1 or 3.
