Hi there!

My main tips would be to follow your exam specification which essentially is a guide to everything that will be on the exam, and is produced by AQA. Do you have access to this?

Secondly, please start early!! Time can be your biggest enemy and you do not want to run out of it. Starting early and revising a little and often goes a long way.

Kind regards, Jenifer (Kingston rep)

Yes I do have access to the specification! Do you have any resources for biology that are good, such as websites, youtube channels etc
@DerDracologe when you have time to answer, here is someone who needs advice again.

@always-anxious be my guest and feel free for answer, if it is currently possible to get into detail.

Hello, I'm currently in year 13 :wavey: Here's what helped me to revise :smile:

Physics and Maths Tutor- I mainly used this for exam questions
Anki/Quizlet/Gizmo- for making digital flashcards. I prefer Anki but I've heard good things about all of these sites!
Miss Estruch Biology (on YouTube)- whenever I didn't understand a topic, I made notes from her videos which helped me understand better! She also has good videos on exam tips

Hope this helps! :yy:
