Higher Biology 2016/2017

I'd say Unit 1 is the hardest out of them all. Unit 2 is ok and Unit 3 is by far the easiest.

Is anyone else hopelessly trying to cram for this?

I was really worried for Nat 5 last year but now this is, next to Higher Music, my most chill exam. I feel alright with this

This is also my last exam, so yassssss

This is my last one too!

Don't worry, guys! We can do this! Growth mindset!

My last one also!

I am sure it'll be a fair paper considering they have moved the boundaries 2 years in a row now.

Did they? What were the grade boundaries for them?

Still got Modern Studies to revise for so I haven't even started for Biology. Feel lucky lmao

Oh man, i've got RMPS on Mon so trying to revise both at once.

Good luck for mods

Does anyone know maths questions that are commonly asked? I never know what to do for them.

% increase and % decrease, average increase/ decrease per day over a time period, predicting averages, masses, volumes, concentration using data and units given, whole number ratios, calculations with DNA bases are common, basic percentages etc

You need to be able to convert between grams, mg, mm, nm, kg, tonnes and also harvest index and sometimes you will be given a cell in mm that is magnified by a certain factor and you can be asked to give length in nm. What you do is divide the number in mm by the magnification factor then times your answer by 1000 to get length in nm. For example, diagram shows a bacterial cell (diagram shows magnified cell length to be 4.5mm) that has been magnified 1500 times. what is the actual length of the cell in nm. You do 4.5/1500 = 3x10^-3mm then multiply this by 1000 to give 3 nm
