I would recommend BioRach; she's a much better YouTuber, in my opinion, than Free Science lessons, as she has detailed, hand drawn diagrams and the content is specific to OCR bio. Mr Murray is also really good, as he does full topic run throughs, but his videos can be 1 hour or more long, but they are still helpful
Free Science lessons were great up to GCSE, but BioRach helped me out better.
Also, bioexamtech is a new rising YouTuber who did her A-levels last year and has good question walkthroughs and general OCR biology advice, so defo check her out too!
edit: I just remembered Miss Estruch; she has a whole OCR biology playlist!!

I second BioRach. Found her videos to be very helpful. Some of Mr Murray's videos are ok, some are too general in my opinion.

Clare biology is another bio YouTuber but she's not really mentioned idk why maybe cuz she isn't as popular as the rest or maybe smth else.. But her videos usually have what the mark scheme says incorporated in like for example definitions etc. There's also a website called revisely where u can access notes and videos linked from YouTube and most of the times it is biorach YouTube videos

I wouldn’t rely on just one Youtuber because you’re right in saying that it’ll be limited to just topic videos. People like Mr Murray (sometimes) and bioexamtech do practise question/ exam walkthroughs as well so it’s best you use a variety of YouTubers and resources people have mentioned in this thread. : )
