3.5 weeks left till my exams......

Before you all go of at me , yes i have been revising (since easter to be exact), i'm in yr 12 doing my AS exams and i looked at my calendar to find that i have 3.5 weeks left.

For chemistry i've done alot revision (as in questions and notes) just need to look at the newer stuff

For history my essays have been improving alot and i feel good about that aswell

then there's biology........I'm honestly scared shitless about biology AS level because i'm doing questions on them but i feel like because of how much there is. I keep doing questions out the book but i feel nothing from it other than the useless facts i remember

how do i calm myself down so i can revise effectively for biology , thanks :/

Biology requires a lot of past paper questions.

What exam board do you do?

Ah I can't help much then sorry.

I do AQA and I would tell u that its not much of a problem if u get over atleast 50% in ur papers, since the grade boundaries are VERY low for it. (last year was 52% for A)

I have AS exams in roughly 4 weeks. I haven't revised at all...

History - no exam (teacher says it's a waste of time, I agree)
Biology - 24/05 & 04/06
Business - 18/05 & 25/05

I'd say stop deeping the exams and do things properly. If you stress too much, you won't get anything done.
