i hate plants!
did you do a Practical Exam or did you have coursework?
we had practiacl exam, which i think i messed up and if i want to retake the practical id have to retake the transport paper too because they're both half modules which make up 1 module.

I did the coursework, thankfully! I'm probably dropping Biology after AS so i doubt i'll retake (unless i get a D or below, then i'll retake a module or something in January just so i have a good AS grade with my 3 A2s) :smile:

Yeh i'm getting quite nervous, but i think i covered everything in the markscheme. I'm doing Edexcel units 2 and 3. Problem is i only have one past paper so theres not alot of practice i can do :frown:

I hate plants too... I don't find the transport section difficult, it's just so boring. Xylem. Phloem. Cambium. Fun.

SiAnY - what was the coursework on?

Ah talking about coursework, i got a C/D on mine (it isn't known which yet) so i'm not very pleased! So i need to get a good mark on these units! Luckily the coursework is only 15% which isnt too bad and i did well on unit one. I really really cannot do biology coursework well! So i have bad feelings about the A2 coursework :eek:

Never heard of Cambium...

I did the coursework on enzymes, i can't remember the specific experiement. It was quite simple but took me a long time to do! And i don't know my mark. I hate my teachers, i haven't been given coursework marks for my Biology or Sociology coursework. :eek:

I might have done really badly :redface:

I really hate Biology coursework too. At least you know you have to do well in the exam, i could have got a U for all i know!

What did you get in january for biology? I so much prefer geography coursework, i'd choose that anyday!

Cambium, located in the meristem, is a layer of cells between the xylem and phloem, which divides to form either xylem (central) of phloem (peripheral).

I still think I would have prefered doing coursewrok, I know I did badly on the pratical exam. Supposedly they don't do c/w at our school because 'It involves too much paperwork!'

I got 77/90 in the Foundation module, which is an A. But not a very high one and i did more revision for that exam than i've ever done for any other single exam in my entire life! Lol. So i'm gonna die next week aren't i!?!?!"?¬!?!?>"L> :colondollar:

IKW $UWJIRWACF M . Oops sorry i think Biology is sending me looooooopy.

I actually really like Geography coursework, i got 100% in my GCSE Geog cwk :smile:

Wow thats a good mark! I got 80/100 which was JUST an A. ANd the bad coursework brings me down. I think you'll be fine, as long as you read and make sure you know everything your syllabus states. ALthough i am still terrified, it has to be done, and it can be retaken (as much as i'd hate to!)

Sounds easy, but when you've got as much to learn as i have, with geography on top of that (i know you do geog too, don't you?) then you feel doomed. I shouldn't be on here but i need a break!

Yeh, i wrote 40 pages of notes :eek:

over the past 4 days and that covers what i need for 2 hours of exam. And having geography on monday really doesn't help, especially as i havn't revised that yet. Oh i wish the exams were a bit more decently spread out. I have chemistry on Thursday too :frown:

I think i shouldn't be on here aswell, but i can't revise non-stop, and i spent a long time in the library this morning almost breaking my hand off finishing biology revision.
