AQA Environmental Studies AS Level Revision Notes Here Watch
Announcements
Hi everyone,
Here I've attached the revision notes I made for AQA AS Level Environmental Studies. They cover Unit 1 (The Living Environment) and Unit 2 (The Physical Environment). I believe they are mostly complete, although I did run out of time during unit 2 so I haven't got any notes on biogeochemical cycles and soils I'm afraid!
Despite that, I hope that you guys find them helpful! Like with my Geology notes which I posted earlier this week, I apologise in advance for any spelling/grammar errors which I may have missed!

I haven't unfortunately, I dropped Environmental Studies for A2 because I didn't enjoy it and found the exam questions too ambiguous. I'm glad you've found the AS notes helpful though!

How did you find yesterdays exam?
I remember looking at an something you wrote in the notes and it had the example of the blue butterfly living in the ants nest because of their interspecies relationship, I used this example for the question about 'what else is provided by interspecies relationships' and then question 4 was all about the butterfly and ants😂 I crossed it out then because I knew theyd think i copied the example from the paper🙈

I didn't do the exam yesterday, I've already finished my A Levels but I thought I'd put up my notes in case anyone wanted them! I took the Unit 1 and 2 exams back in 2014 I think, and then I dropped Environmental Studies for A2

Oh fair enough haha, thank you anyway😁 I'm teaching myself the whole thing in one year so this was really useful!

I got a B overall, only 2-3 marks off an A I think! So gutting! I truly thought I'd get nothing higher than a D though, because I never got higher than a D in past papers. Just goes to show that even if you think you've done badly, you might have much done better than you think!

That's eally good! I'd be so happy to get a B, it must have been quite gutting to be that close to an A though😕 which other subjects did you do?

It did overlap in some areas, but I still found ES to be the hardest - I thought it was terribly ambiguous a lot of the time, and the mark schemes didn't seem to match up with the questions!

Yeah I found that too, lots of the questions didnt really match the mark scheme:/ I'm doing A level Biology so quite a bit of that overlaps (which helps a lot) but yeah I deffo see what you mean
