Personally I found them harder.

The actual AS exams? I did the breadth recently and I thought it was quite fair. Not sure about the depth. I can see the two big papers having a fair amount of statistics this year.

Oh tell me about it :lol:

That's probably going to be that paper with the most practicals, and that's the part I like the least, soooo that's not going to be fun :colonhash:
Although, as long as we know all the stuff and understand it, we should be fine...
Does anyone have the papers that will be used for the mock exams? I have it in a couple of weeks and could really do with the heads up to save agro from my school...

In those couple of weeks you could easily revise most of the syllabus that you've done to a high level. The point of these mocks I'd to see where you need improvement.
Would you rather do well now, but save the aggro for the summer in a situation where you aren't allowed back into your school because you did the same thing, our would you rather receive aggro now, and use that to improve and do well in the summer?

I'm sure there are people. But I think it's better for you to do the revision you can and see how you fare tbh. They're not too bad and if you've covered everything (and had a lot of practice at the old specification papers) you should find the papers quite nice.

Have you done them because if so could I just have a heads up about some things? I've coevered most of module 5 and module 2 but it's on the 21st of feb so I won't get everything done :frown: I'm so so stressed I don't wanna get screamed at by my teachers.

I don't have any of the papers.
I'm sorry if I sound rude or dismissive, but even if I did, I wouldn't send them to you or anyone else. I'm a strong believer in integrity.

That's ok I understand. I wanted check if we both had the same mock paper. Did you get a long question on the chicken experiment?
Our mock paper was a really hard one and I think if we practice more experiment type questions as the last paper covers a lot of practicals I though it will be good. It's Ok!😃
