Anyone found paper 1BR difficult if so what. For the last question plants respond to light by elongation and so on what about animals was i suppose to talk about the eye?

I JUST FINISHED the eXAM!!! Honestly did not find it EXTREMELY difficult, it was bad, I know i messed up a bit, on the bar chart graph especially, but overall it was pretty decent. How did you guys do?


honestly i found it pretty difficult. the questions were unlike what i'd seen in any one of the past papers. did you give 1br or 1b?
I missed out the back page, anything I can do?
Does anyone remember any correct answers? What did we have to answer for the last question (Question 12)?

Omg u genius I literally said so the astronauts could eat omg I'm so dumb lol

To be fair, the entire space plants topic just felt like Edexcel was running out of ideas. I mean, it was quite clear from last year’s paper.
I found that I had actually revised most of the things that came up but for some of the questions I didn't know what they were asking because they were worded badly?! Anyone else?!

i think so. i realised after the exam that i was supposed to write that. im pretty bummed, i was expecting it to go better.
The length of the rhino I put was 2m as it wasn't from the ground but from the shoulder bone to the top as that would include the leg
