There is no choice for the essay questions. And they are only giving us 2 questions this year - one is just a question and the other is data analysis

What exactly does "data analysis" involve??

There doesn't seem to be a data analysis question in the sample exam so i'm unsure about what to expect

did you go to the bio section d tutorial? They gave a sample data analysis question to work on.

Basically data analysis is usually a question based on some sort of experiment that is conducted and results are provided. You must use your biology skills to relate the data to biology, draw conclusions, form possible hypothesis etc.  :)

How is the studying coming along for bio? I'm gonna memorise like 10 lectures tomorrow haha, then onto plants the next day. Except i've done about 5/6th of my revision prior, so most is just consolidating knowledge.

i already went over them earlier this week. Rick's stuff is relatively easy as cell division, photosynthesis etc is general knowledge.

I'm upto the plant now and it's stuff i've never heard about :(

Yeah I guess.

Plant hormones are the worst, so many functions! Everything else is ok.

Yeah I think you know you've reached the end point of studying, you feel as though your head's memory is 5/6th about biology and just can't wait to write all this stuff on paper and get it over with.

Digestion is the worst. Did a "quick" summary this afternoon for my notes, I'm up to my sixth page and I'm nowhere near finished yet :(
