How hard is higher human biology?

I'm changing about my S5 subjects and want to know how difficulty human biology is. I did not do biology in S4 but I did do it in S3 and always got 100% on those tests. Do you think I would struggle badly or would it be manageable? I want a good variety of subjects which is why I'm opting for a science and this is the only one that I can pick. If I do pick human biology my subjects will be graphic communication, history, maths, english, human biology (all at higher) and game development NPA.

Human biology is much easier than regular. I would recommend skimming through the n5 course just to make yourself familiar with the previous years content. If you’re okay with putting in extra effort to get the grade, it shouldn’t be too hard. It’s mainly just about memorisation

I might be a bit late, honestly I found it really easy. There's a lot of terms to learn but that's just memorisation. I don't know about you but I also did graph comm and honestly found it incredibly easy if you do too then your work load seems quite light and I think you'll probably be fine.
