| Paper | Time | Marks | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paper 1 | 2 hours | 91 | 35% |
| Paper 2 | 2 hours | 91 | 35% |
| Paper 3 | 2 hours | 78 | 30% |
Paper 1 draws on topics 1 to 4 and Paper 2 on topics 5 to 8. Paper 3 can assess the full course, including practical skills, experimental data and a 25-mark essay. Revision therefore needs more than separate topic summaries. A tutor might connect membrane transport to respiration, or gene expression to cell function, then ask you to explain the link in your own words.
Application questions
Separate the new context from the biological idea being tested. Practise using the information in the question rather than reciting a memorised paragraph.
Data interpretation
Describe the pattern, support it with figures and decide what the evidence actually allows you to conclude.
Essay planning
Choose relevant examples, explain their biology accurately and link them directly to the title. Practise planning before attempting a complete essay.
Yes, discuss essay teaching with your chosen tutor. Bring a plan or marked essay so the lesson can focus on relevance, breadth and the quality of your explanations.
Lessons can help with practical reasoning, calculations and written questions. They do not replace the supervised practical work or assessment arranged by your school or exam centre.
It can be. Working on biological language and application early gives you a foundation for later topics. A free 15-minute introduction is a chance to agree the most useful starting point.
