does anyone know if the mme predicted papers are accurate
Does anyone know if the aseptic technique will be on paper 1 biology for triple students?
im not sure, loads of reviews say they are, the only problem is that they do not have any online exams that people could order so it will be hard for them to come asap, like before the exam!

there's bound to be a 2 marker on cell structure or something, a short question about bacterial diseases, some kind of synoptic question bringing together ideas about respiration maybe

probably going to procrastinate for a bit longer then go to revising. I have done the past papers on the AQA website and I feel fairly confident since the past papers don't seem extremely hard. im still a bit sleep deprived from revising RE but I hope I do good in this biology test since the grade boundaries are rarely low (I overestimated 130-140/200 for a 9 and roughly 110/200 for a 7)

How did you find RE?
Which exam board were you?
Honestly terrified for tomorrow because I've picked bio for a-level and really hoping for a 9, but can't help feeling like I don't know any of the content.

That being said, I thought the same about re last night and that went better than expected
when drawing a line of best fit for a graph to do with the osmosis practical, does it have to be a straight line?
For osmosis there usually is a straight line for the line of best fit however as always it can vary with question and it may be curved.
Hope this helps!
