Just did the 2015 paper from last year, still as baffling as ever. Perfect.
Hey, does anyone have any predictions on what might come up?

I'm hoping some geography and psychology questions come up...

Can anyone post the 2015 f211 paper, it would be much appreciated
Does anyone know if they are taking the best grade you get or taking the latest grade to count towards your A Level?

In aqa geography they are taking the latest one and I panicking that other exams might be the same...

hi guys,

so i wasn't sure if there was another thread for this so i'll post it here anyway (i'm also resitting from last year!)

I've come across the spirometer part of the spec and just did a practice oxygen uptake question, but the graph i used was from a specimen paper, where the question wasn't to work out oxygen uptake.

If any of you would mind having a quick go at it, just so I can check my answer it would be appreciated. I got stuff bout spirometers wrong in last years exams (how I did that i don't know) so I want to make sure I'm 100% on them.

Thanks- the picture of the graph is attached :smile:

Any predictions for what will come up? Hopefully nothing about Guard Cells or the Hole in the Septum...

LOL Ridiculous right? Hmm possibly more in depth questions on the heart this time around possibly a 7 marker, focus on the topics your weak on. unseen experiments = destroy my soul.
Ok so is it that if you get a lower grade they keep your original grade?

Hey guys, i saw someone post this on another thread and the predictions seem fair imo! Here:

My teacher's predictions and she's generally very accurate:mitosis, yeast budding, stem cells, blood vessels, hydrostatic pressure graph, lymph, tissue fluid table, microscopes, apoplast/sympast pathways, xerophytes, prokaryotic/eukaryotic cells, cytoskeleton



Also if you guys want in, there's a small online group chat here for F211, most are also doing other modules, good place to ask any questions/topics you're stuck on:

Hi, cant really read the graph properly but from what I calculated oxygen uptake over one minute is roughly 0.8dm^3 min-1
