A-Level biology is just like GCSE biology just more practical work and more thinking

You only need a 5 in maths to do psychology a level. Do you enjoy biology GCSE? Make sure you choose a level subjects that you enjoy, it’s very important
Honestly, if you did not enjoy GCSE bio your probably going to really dislike A Level Biology. I absolutely loved biology at GCSE but at ALevel it became slightly annoying for some reason. Maybe because there is so much of just plain memorising. Of course, you could go the other way and end up really enjoying ALevel Biology. I would look at some Alevel textbooks and the specification.
