yh neither am I....I find the fact that we have to read up more than what we have been given in the revision guide (in order to get over a C), totally stressing !! Depth in bio would definitely need you to research more facts by yourself in order to apply from your own knowledge.

I'm doing Chemistry and Biology too but we don't have any AS exams for them because of the linear spec.

Does every school do mock internal exams for exam week?

My advice for 'reading around' is to watch YouTube videos. They add some extra stuff in there and bring up various parts to a topic you may have not encountered.

My school is - its annoying because my last maths exam is during that week. We should be studying for our real AS and not doing internal exams!

LOL you know this means some top universities won't believe your teacher's predicted grades?

We're doing the full AS exams, for uni applications and to see how we're getting on.

Wont that be expensive for your school (paying for everyone to do AS)?
