triple science is where you do each topic on each paper.....so 3 topics on 3 papers.....are you sure your doing AQA?:confused:
check with your teacher then quick before its too late. science is ok i suppose. just give as much details as possible and you will do well. sometimes the questions are worded weird and nobody understands what they want so just write everything.
