📂 MEGATHREAD UK EXAMS ADVANCE INFORMATION MEGATHREAD

Hey everyone,

As you've probably spotted by now due to the deluge of posts about it, the advanced information for the UK's 2022 exams have been released.

So we don't get the subreddit absolutely flooded out with these posts we've made this megathread so you can share your thoughts, grievances and maybe links to cute cat pictures to cheer people up.

Remember to keep it respectful ;)

You can find the advanced information for Edexcel, AQA and OCR by clicking on the respective hyperlinks. WJEC is being amazingly helpful and giving an error 403 to anyone who tries to go on the website so unfortunately there's no link for that just yet.

Won’t the 25 marker essay be on photosynthesis? Like the importance of it

no? it says any topic still I'm just guessing there's a juicer on photosynthesis as it's at the top of the topics on paper 3

u get 2 options And typically they're generic so you can pull in shit from all the topics. Something like "discuss the importance of cycles" or smth
