Hi, my Feb/March Biology exams are in a few weeks and would you mind sharing some biology tips on solving past papers? My biology is actually pretty good in terms of understanding the concepts. But my main problem lies in solving past papers. I always struggle at solving them, my points usually don't come in the desired sequence of marking scheme or I miss certain important keywords, sometimes, I even don't understand the questions and write something else which is totally different from the actual answer (this happens mostly in graph-based or experiment-based questions). Due to a few reasons like these, I end up scoring less in the theory paper (and even in ATP too). Therefore, I would love it if you would share some tips that would help me overcome this problem. Also, please be quick to reply to this comment. My mocks are around the corner and I have less time in my hand. Thank you. Love your videos.
Hi, so with paper 4-theory paper, I would say keep track of what keywords past students have used in their answers - u can find these through the examiner reports of past papers. Try to modulate your answer to contain those keywords and ensure you know all the task words like “explain” or “justify” and what each is asking you to do. For ATP - paper 6- keep track of what specific things are being picked out from the long paragraphs past papers usually have - in the examiners report they refer to specific lines from the passage - try to find a pattern
hello, my exam is in like 4 days for paper 6.... and I still struggle with planning investigation, do you have any tips on that?
Bro you are not alone I also don't know how to plan an experiment it's literally the hardest thing in the paper.
It’s the easiest part wdym it’s always the same things
mine tooo
How do we know if were supposed to draw best first line or join the points??
Can do some peridiction video on paper 4 , .plsss
is it okay to not show how to do the experiment in the 6marks questions?
How to prepare for ATP ? Like planning experiments and all?
do about 5 ish years of past papers, make notes from the examiner reports detailing how to design an experiment, common errors, improvements etc
Thank you😊

@@itsBiologue Ahh... thanks for that
