Hi, if you’re asking how the course is, it depends on which exam board you’re doing.
I do AQA and I really enjoy it. The specification is quite broad and interesting (although, as with most exam boards, very human based) and grade boundaries are pretty low in comparison to other subjects.
That being said, exams for AQA bio are very application and stats analysis based rather than just testing your knowledge, so you have to be willing to take the time to understand different concepts rather than just remember the processes.
Revising for biology takes up quite a bit of my time, but it is really interesting, so revising the topics isn’t too bad.
Hope this helps, sorry if you’re doing another exam board or if that’s not the answer you are looking for
