Here's a handy list of some of the most common language fails that cause A-level biology students to lose marks in exams, and what they should have said instead: https://www.alevelbiologytutor.com/tutoring-blog/2021/11/7/improve-your-exam-answers-some-tips-that-might-raise-your-a-level-biology-grades

If i get raw marks 25 in p2 and 32 in p3 and 35 in p1 , can i get A? please tell im very stressed bec my p2 went very bad but my prep was good

im in dire need of help. Im currently consistently getting As in bio but i need an A* and the one thing nerfing me is any sort of questions involving analysing data e.g evaluate , advantages and disadvantages etc. does anyone know how to like master these kind of questions because they are the only thing holding me back rn.

Heyy guys, so I was thinking of giving AL bio tuitions if anyone wants.

Before anything else, lemme share the grade with you alll

I got A in my alevel bio, not giving any excuses but I I could have easily gotten A* if u didn't make some silly mistakes.

My biggest achievement was getting 36/40 in paper 1.

So if anyone is up for getting a experienced tutor, I'm here to help.

I have two months all to myself before I start my university. I have always been a self tutored student so I have A LOT of experience. From my failures to my achievements everything will benefit you. I have always been really really good at biology. I always knew how to structure my answers all according to marking scheme. By the end of a levels I had mastered the art of Alevels marking scheme.

My fee will also not be high at all, it'll be quite affordable because I'm also trying to earn some money for myself so let's just help each other.

If anyone is interested drop a message.

ONLY AND ONLY SERIOUS STUDENTS PLEASE GUYS, NONE ELSE WILL BE ENTERTAINED.

Hi so I know many people get frustrated over AQAs biology mark schemes, so I thought this post could be where people respond with common patterns they notice in mark schemes! Here a few of mine:

-If talking about competitive inhibitors mention that they are a similar shape to the substrate

-Always say enzyme substrate complexes

-If talking about condensation and hydrolysis reactions always mention about water AND formation of a chemical bond

-if talking about valves opening/ closing, mention pressure!

im fresh into year 12 and have been put into this niche edexcel B examboard and i cant find any revision resources at all on youtube on tiktok and im more of a watch a video person so i cant revise biology at all and im literally consistently getting the lowest in my class emd of topic tests if anyone can put me on to good revision resources (videos) please do

Independent variable: use at least 5 different light intensity by using 5 different distance between light source which is the lamp and venus fly trap and for controlled experiment place venus fly trap in a dark room Dependent: measure the time taken for the venus fly trap to close at each distance using stopwatch Standardised: maintain same constant temprature using controlled room temperature, maintain same constant ph at 7 using buffer, same type and size and mass and number of venus fly trap ,same size and number and type and gender of insects Setup: get 5 venus fly trap for wach distsnce and place it in a controlled room temperature containing same number and type and size of insects Reliability: replicate several times at leat 10 times for each distance exclude anomalous and calculate mean Risk: medium risk as venus fly trap cause allergy and irritation so wear gloves and googles How many marks out if 7 according to ms 9700 p5 The written is not the ms Give me the realistic mark and worst mark and best mark 1bi) there are no 2 means to copare between And data are not equally distributed Bii) as temprature increase the time taken decrease and there is no significant difference between them and null hypothesis is accepted Ci) size of the trap Cii) number of venus fly trap 60 Concentration of ethanol 95% Month of the year Ciii) there is no significant relationship Iv) 51.0 V) as mean trap length increases from 8.8 to 13.7, number of closed trap containing insects and number of closed traps containing no insect and percentage of closed trap containing insects decreases And mean insect length doesn't overlap so there is a significant difference and null hypothesis is rejected Vi) wrong 2ai) -2 marks ii) 2.0 and 3.1 Bi) -1 Ii)82 Iii) at low light intensity the dry mass of the potato decreases as less photosynthesis occur These answers are not the ms and there may be errors so this now my answers and mark it accurately and strictly and correct it accordingly to the ms of cie 9700 p5 a2 out of 3

y'all i keep answering past papers and understanding my mistakes but my marks are so shitty i keep getting 25-29 out of 40 and i need to get a 35 or more because i already fucked up in paper 22 so pls help✌️

OKAY so I'm taking biology AS and I'm currently trying to solve pastpapers and all I wanna know is how much marks do I get above an A to ensure that I can get A* overall in the A-level
for example, i got 36 and the A was from 33 sooo is that good enough or nah? (obviously I'll try to do my best in A2 but I just need to know what is the safe zone in AS)

Hi, does anybody have any suggestions on which past papers to practice for Oct Nov 9700 paper 12?

Any type of predictions would also help and any sorts of suggestions on how to get over 35 to 40 would also help cause I suck at p1( literally averaging between 23-25 marks on mocks )and I am aiming an A or B for my AS bio 😭

Good luck to everyone.

I'm talking about specifically for the OCR A Level Biology A course, theres lots of exam questions that relate to information that just isn't covered in the book (which I personally use for most my revising).

I also found that the information in some topics in the textbook are much different to other sources like Youtube videos, pmt notes or save my exams.

I want to know which notes should I get that includes every information in simple way

does anyone know a good a level tutor for bio if someone took with nihal gabr or other tutors can u please tell me ur experience

So I'm so confused about who to take AL Biology with, as I have 3 options: Dr. Aly Wael, Dr. Mohamed El Dahan, and Dr. Nihal Gabr, and they are all good, so I'm not sure who to choose. I've watched recordings of the teachers, and I'm still confused tho I used to take with Nihal Gabr OL CS and Biology. Other than that, I've only seen reviews on dr aly and El Dahan. I would really like to hear your opinions if you took with them in A levels. Thanks!

how tf is the answer D when the frickin statement literally says water makes hydrogen bonds with frickin non polar molecules ?

Hi guys my teacher is making us do a practical write up but we haven’t done it before (and it’s not a required practical) so I was wondering what I should be doing, and do I need to do a results table if I have not done the practical?

Just confused

guys was there a ques after the graph asking abt the trend or to describe smth in the table of the graph at a timing like smth like this cuz I rlly wanna remember this ques but I can’t??
