Hi!! I did my a-levels last year and I did Edexcel b biology! I'd strongly recommend buying the revision guide as it make the topics much clearer. Doing exam questions and marking them is also extremely useful, even if you use notes to help you answer them. I'd also suggest making summary posters for each topic, I found this especially useful for topic one (e.g. drawing the structures of different molecules). Another good idea is to write out key processes until you can get the whole process correct without looking at notes e.g. DNA replication (whiteboards are really good for this!) Hope this helps!! :smile:

Definitely, the lack of resources is insane!! Just try your best with the exam questions and don't put too much pressure on yourself. I know it's easier said than done but to be fair the Edexcel b course is hard!! As long as you stay on top of things and focus especially on areas you struggle with you'll be okay 🙂 And don't hesitate to ask for help!! Whether that's from teachers or on here, there's nothing wrong with asking for help 🙂
