GCSE AQA Biology sample paper 1

P.S.

Hey guys,
basically, my predicted grades for GCSE biology is 8 and I got 70/100 in the sample paper which I think is quite low because it means I got 30 marks wrong.
What do you guys think; what were your predicted grades and what did you get?
Also what marks out of 100 do your schools qualify as a grade 7/8/9

Predicted grade for me is a 6
In the sample paper one i got 82/100
I think 70/100 should secure a 8

Thank you that’s really helpful, good luck in your exams tomorrow :smile:

how do you revise???

I revise by answering questions then reading the textbook and then answering the questions that I got wrong again. I’m also going to look through all the past papers I did.
Good luck :smile:

(btw you sound quite stressed with the ‘???’ - just a reminder if you haven’t revised and are stressing you still have a chance to bring your grade up with paper 2 - just try your best for now)
