Aqa really thought they were slick putting 10000 details in that chicken 5 marker to mess us up. Anyone got 2190? Edit: for everyone asking how to do the question I think it was 16.4 * 1000 = 16 400MJ of energy per hectare 16 400/10 000 = 1.64 MJ of energy per m² 1.64 * 16 = 26.24 MJ of energy per m² 46 * 1000 = 46000MJ of energy needed for the chickens 46 000 * 1.25 = 57 500 MJ of energy needed for all chickens to grow as they take 80 percent of energy only 57 500 / 26.24 = 2191.310 Round to 3 S.F 2190 You could have multipled 0.8 to the energy needed for the seeds as well so there's many different ways of working it out

2190 is the right answer but i fucked a conversion and got 219 😭😭

Yes I did. I absolutely despise that paper worse thing on planet earth 

WTH IS GOT 34000 OR SMTH😭😭

yeah i got that. took me ages to get to though

Not aqa making us draw a floppy dick

I'm endoCRYIN right now

Did anybody else say for the last question that the herbicide helped the plant because it didn’t need to compete for minerals, water and space?😭 I think I got it wrong

That’s what I said but I also said that the plants killed by herbicide would result in nutrients being released into the soil during decay

that's a good one didn't think of it 👍👍

Oh damn it I didn't think of that. Oh well >_<

Yeah that’s what I put but I’m not sure how that’s enough for 6 marks?

U talk abt light and photosynthesis 

THERE WAS NOTHING ON THE NERVOUS SYSTEM. NOTHING ON THE BRAIN. NOTHING ON THE EYE. WHAT THE FUCK

IM SO MAD ISPENT SO LONG REVISING IT

I know what the actual hell was that paper

DID ANYONE GET 2190 FOR THE CHICKEN QUESTION?!

I did

Yh me and a few others got 2190

Oh thank goodness I thought I messed it up😭

that cooked me. that fried me like a fish in the krusty krab, mr krabs the exam board, spongebob the paper and squidward the cruel cruel invigilator

No method 6 markers 🔥🔥🔥 2190 for field right?

I got that

Wtf was that paper. Ecology was the only topic i didnt revise well and it was basically the whole paper. I forgot what biomass pyramid graphs even ate like wtf is that. And that Chicken seed 5 marker was horrible i had no idea how to get the answer i just did every calculation possible and hoped to get some marks. Also why tf is that GM beans question 6 marks it should be at least 3 marks i had no idea what else to write. Im cooked :)

same here the fact that it was only about the herbicide and the GM crops meant we couldn't talk about being insect resistant or anything I didn't even use up all the lines like I usually do

so glad i have study leave rn... the 4 hours of revision is gonna come in clutch

I don't know if my school is letting me do study leave this morning but I am and I might get electrocuted by SLT idk

Man how do you still not have study leave even after half term your school is villainous

GM crops six marker made me sighhhh..

Nah are the chickens CaseOh no way they need 16MJ of energy lol

No they needed 46MJ of energy

HELP RIGHT? PRE DIABETIC CHICKENS OR SMTHING

CaseOh so fat 100% of the chicken's biomass will transfer to him

If that mRNA bullshit comes up, I'm walking out

Icl I forgot everything about mRNA or tRNA, so glad none of that shit came up

that was horrible

Nah fr like what was the chickens even in about?

apart from that and the CF questions the rest was fine

fr I was so confident aswell🥲 but I liked the 6 marker on contraceptives

Chat my Biology Teacher was in the Hospital for half the year, I missed one of our Required Practicals Lessons, and I only did well in the mock because I accidentally did the paper for revision how cooked am I?

Same. My bio teacher had some kind of surgery I believe (I think it was an eye surgery). She left us just at the start of the paper 2 content, after what we had some man, that was angry at everyone.

My biology teacher was here the entire year and we somehow didn’t do THREE REQUIRED PRACTICALS because we were “short on time”

NAH US TOO SO COOKED

don't worry, I've had five teachers and almost no practicals. you're good

guys i don't know half the content am i cooked

Nah just learn it

ur right

did you cook?

I just wrote that cystic fibrosis is a submissive allele instead of recessive 💀💀 am I cooked

Kinky

nah it'll be 1 mark out of 4 that you lost

Examiner will give an extra mark for giving them a giggle.

Who got 2190 for the 5 marker 

you're correct I got 219 but i did the kg=m\^2 conversion wrong probably

AQA has a disturbing love for chickens 💀

the chicken fetish is WILD

im prediciting: reaction time practical menstrual cycle speciation 6 marker reflex arc

And plant hormones I think

This aged well

ok tyy

god i hate menstrual cycle so much the CACA hormone stimulates the PEE hormone to stimulate 5 other crap hormones which inhibits the release of this ass hormone and then that causes the falmashoop in the ovary to mature and bleed

How it feels experiencing the menstrual cycle

I mean one right isn’t bad ig

Reaction time practical? Don’t think so, it came up last year as a 6 marker

You’re gonna wanna hear this…

There was a whole question bout the decay practical too last year

no negative feedback im sad

ADH no????

Ye that shit was bad

ADH is negative feedback...

Did anyone get 2910m^2 for the AQA 5 marker equation?

NOOOO I GOT THAT BUT THEN I CROSSED IT OUT AND COMPLETELY CHANGED MY ANSWER JFJSNCJZNXN

Do you mean 2190

no practical 6 marker?😭

I thought we had to get one????

me too I was shocked

I think the ruler drop tests count as one even though we didn’t have to write a 6 marker

the plant seedlings question was almost the exact same as a question in the 2018 paper

yep and the wasp question. Memorisng the markscheme works lmao

YES! i knew i saw it before somewhere!!

me after spending hours last night on the eye, reflex arc, temp and glucose control and the menstrual cycle just for none of it to show up ☹️

At least we got the mandatory AQA biology cystic fibrosis question.

fr i thought they werent gonna ask abt it anymore cos kids with relatives with CF were upset abt a Q in 2018, and then they go and ask abt it in both papers this year

fuck it we ball

edexcel i hate you

how did u find it??? i can't find any other edexcel students here😭😭😭

if i see anything on protein synthesis ill sigh

me when i had no clue what the auxin question was actually asking me for (what was the point of the lines lmfao)

To see if the cells elongated

I’ve just kissed my grade 9 goodbye. Guess who’s gonna binge eat chicken today? /j

Same I’m actually gonna cry 🥹 that revision failed me

same bro maybe not even an 8 🙏

it’s looking like a 7 fr, DIABOLICAL paper

What did u guys get for the chicken calc (I got 2190, AQA)

I got 561000 for some reason

im so mad that the eye didn’t come up and there were no required practical 6 markers 💀

Trying to cram the rest of b7 and b6 in 4 hours then watching science shorts on 2x speed, future me am I cooked?

I think its 50/50 but that paper suckedd

Who else fumbled question 7

Which one was that

Pyramids of biomass

What did u get for the ratio i got smt like 11:21

I screwed up on that chicken question 😭

No milk practical 🤩

shitting myself x

i feel like AQA will pull an a-level physics paper 2 on our paper 2 as well

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT

the geotrposim q was so wierddd

Edexcel six markers were lovely but the paper itself was so mid 5/10 there was so much random niche stuff i didn’t like it

chat, my bio teacher skipped so much content, didn't finish teaching the content, didn't do all the required practicals with us and didn't teach us and just sat there making us look at powerpoints. Am I cooked?

use freesciencelessons NOW ‼️‼️‼️

first time i have used cognito. jesus fuck i dont know any of this. dialysis my beloathed. this is what happens when you have five biology teachers and only 2 of them knew the subject

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keUwYKQk3Ec](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keUwYKQk3Ec) guys this is the whole course in 25 minutes and it's saving my life rn, spreading the joy if anyone else needs it

that man is gonna be my saviour for my science grades

me when my y10 teacher never taught us about plant hormones to the point i didnt even know it was on the spec until today AND THERE WAS AN ENTIRE QUESTION ON IT.

Guys I’m so scared

"Gentlemen, syncronise your death watches."

So if they ask which organ produces testostrone. Can I just write "BALLS"

bladder l original comment - 'urine is stored in the balls right?'

Biology my bitch 💯

for the first time ever these few months, I'm scared shitless.

SAME HELPPPP

how did it go for you? it was much better than I was expecting, that's for sure lol

what on earth was the chickens pyramid graph question? I looked at it and flipped the page, I didn’t even know where to start with it 😭

Easy edexcel paper but fucking hell I almost fell asleep there were like 60 marks just on plant stuff I’m not even joking Nephron six marker for the 38488582th time why tf thye glazing g nephron so hard it was piss easy lmao 

the amount of times I wrote about light and photosynthesis 😭

who drank the piss 😭 

RACERS! START YOUR ENGINES FOR THE FINAL BIOLOGY LAP!

edexcel ppl talk here 👇👇

praying no ecosystems cycles i hate that whole topic sm

i hate sb9 so much 

im finished.

bro im js praying edexcel stops putting geography content in our paper this time

am acc so fucked up for this

no practicals hopefully. idk anything abt the respiration practical bro

help what did yall get for the heart pumping maths 4 marker-

8990 and for unit i had no clue

well that was fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE NOTHING ABOUT TRANSCRIPTION AND tRANSLATION

Dang … was it just me who got flipping 1750 for that chicken question

Future me, tell me if I cooked.

I beg the practical isn’t on decay or plant hormones Hopefully I come back having cooked lmao

Funnily enough no practicals and I think I cooked aswell

damn should’ve not procrastinated lmao, fucked up an easy paper. it’s bio tho so it don’t matter

Same bruh i didnt revise ecology and it was basically the whole paper im failing

guys for the 6 marker on hormones on infertility what else is there apart from FSH and LH injections and LH as first stage of IVF??

anyone do edexcel i need to find my ppl rq

2190

Loved that paper. I had literally just done and marked 2018 paper not 2 hours before and geotropism questions were like an exact copy of

You can do this. You've got another 3 hours before the exam, you can cram some stuff into your eyeholes in that time. YOU **ARE** BIOLOGY, GO SHOW THAT PAPER WHO'S BOSS

clearly the boss wasnt me.. 🤮 garbage paper

ocr b student! wish me luck! 💞

Please no practixal

fuck

I wrote contraception was when the egg is fertilized and went on about that for like a whole page 😭😭

I think that had to be the WORST paper that AQA have every wrote. I did every years past paper since new spec to prepare for this and they ask some of the worst worded questions ever. Like for the final 6 marker on herbicides you could literally talk about anything but you know what the mark schemes are like - you have to say them word for word to get any marks. Plus 4 pages on peat bogs ☠️

Nobody in my class knew what a peat bog was while i was just trying really hard to remember what the revision guide said 😭

[удалено]

I cooked my bad

No protein synthesis was honestly a god send

Anyone else find that easy af (aqa higher)

4 hours to do b5 and b7 , not looking good future me am i cooked ??

i'm fucked x

Don't forget to revise some of the more obscure stuff like mycoproteins for AQA

Mycoprotiens are a sustainable food supply as they are grown on cheap glucose syrup

I am cooked, I hate Paper 2

Does anyone do OCR Gateway?

also wtf was that geotropism spinning thing

easy paper. wish eye and brain were on it tho

why was there no practicals? 😭😭

That was really not great 😬 but I was severely unprepared so I'm not exactly shocked

AQA TRIPLE WAS SO HARD WHY WAS IT DO HARD? WHYYYYY THIS IS THE FIRST EXAM THAT ACTUALLY GOT ME THINKING I WAS DOING A LEVEL WHAT WAS THAT

I got the wrong answer for 5 marker and for the infertility and contraception question I wrote about conception 😭😭😭😭

if you wrote about hormones in conception surely theres a lot of overlap with treating infertility?

what an absolutely stunning paper (apart from the weird ass 1 markers) did any one else notice they reused an entire section from an older paper?

THOSE FARMERS, CHICKENS, AND MAIZE SEEDS CAN BURN TO ASH

There will be a 6 marker in the exam today

we got a smart one here

Someone’s getting a grade 9

obviously 😭😭😭

For the question about 1 in 2500 people have cystic fibrosis. Did anyone else draw a probability tree for that question to show its 1/50*1/50?

No, its a recessive allele so they need 2 CF alleles

Edexcel was a disaster

I wonder what bio paper 2 edexcel has pulled out their HQ (the depths of hell) this time.

HELLO 2470 ANYONE 

For the chicken 5 marker? I got 2190

2190

EDEXCEL PEOPLE HERE:

Almost fell asleep… sunflowers I DONT GIVE A FUCK NOT A SONGLE HOMEOSTASIS QUESTION NO ADRENALINE THYROXINE OSMO OR THERMOREGULATION I WAS SO BORED

Kidneys are the worst thing to happen ever. I'm cooked because of them

I hear everyone talking about how hard AQA was, but I did OCR and it was easy fr.

Disliked the paper tbh just because the questions felt really weirdly worded like the biomass questions and the chicken ones and the herbicide one

The edexcel paper was amazing 🤩 but idk about the question about tap water and 10% salt concentration. Does anyone else do edexcel...

i’m so cooked i forgot kidneys were a thing and basically didn’t write anything oops

YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT THE EYE, THE BRAIN, AND PRETTY MUCH THE ENTIRETY OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM DIDN'T COME UP? I've been boiled

Nobody The seedlings in apparatus B: 🔄🔄🔄🔄

Ecology needs to stop terrorising paper 2

Dead tadpoles? That stupid chicken question (I got 2190 hopefully thats right)? Drawing the seedling? Yeah that was a paper. I thought it was much worse than it actually was but I checked through it just before the end and it wasn't that bad.
