Kinda of easy but I know I lost 2 marks on the mutalistic 6 mark question. Fingers crossed I still get an A*
The Hunington question was confusing at first, but I still think I got the entire section of it right.
I think I got 4/6 on both the 6 markers. What was the answer to the cystic fibrosis infertility in men question ? I think I messed up on that two marker. Otherwise pretty good I think it wasn't as bad as I thought at least 😩😭

So?


I was actually surprised that the paper was easier than most years (except June 2013), hopefully the chemistry and physics test paper will be easy.

i love student room! also did you find the exam okay? i think it was a lot easier than the past papers which i presume means high grade boundaries :frown: but overall a pretty decent exam.


HOPE P1 IS THIS NICE AS WITH C1
hoping my C1 will go as well as my B1 went.
Did anyone else find the first 2 questions on section 1 hard? if so what did you put?

we had to calculate the percentage decrease in smoking (the diagram was confusing) and suggest why smoking has decreased in the UK.

I said that the mucus would block the tubes that bring sperm to the testes
One of my friends said it would suffocate the sperm cells XD
This was a much nicer paper than previous years!

It seemed as though they weren't trying to over-complicate the questions because they generally seemed quite straight forward. The 6 markers were very generous in my opinion, as it was basically just pure recollection of knowledge.

Hope it went well for you all! Let's hope the C1 & P1 papers are just as nice!

I thought the exam was pretty easy, only one of my friends talked about parasitic relationships instead of mutualistic ones on the 6 marker XD The only question I didn't really understand was that infertility one
I was so please with how that paper went! I couldn't remember a third mutualistic relationship but I said what one could be without giving examples of specific animals, if that makes sense? That and I put dendrites on the picture of the neurone and a few people told me it should have be dendron, but not sure. I also had to guess on the infertility one and say that the testes got blocked by mucus but the 6 markers were great! I loved the homeostasis section but the only thing was the 6 marker about blood glucose. I just put about the insulin and glucagon and what they do. Do you think that was enough?
