Biology mock

Hi I have a biology paper 2 mock next week for aqa higher. I’ve been watching videos and doing past papers, does anyone have any other advice for how I can do well? (I am aiming for about a grade 6)

Hello, for grade 6 in AQA Biology paper 2, you're on the right track with videos and past papers, but to really boost your chances, focus on active recall and exam technique. Go through mark schemes and examiner reports after each past paper to see exactly how answers are phrased. I would say make mini "knowledge maps" or flashcards for topics. During practice time yourself repeatedly so you get used to answering under exam conditions and focus on 6 mark questions by planning bullet-point answers first.
