wah your situation is quite similar to mine - start doing practice exams now. dont worry if you've still got two chapters left, do practice exams and leave the q.s that you havent really touched on out. It's also good to start doing them, so you don't forget your AOS1 knowledge.

btw, I'm also freaking out :(

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
realistically 38ish,
but my gut tells me that i really want a 40 too :D
bad thing about biology is that you HAVE TO sit down and study for it/learn the concepts, unlike other subjects where you dont really need too

ignore the pressure from your folks, as long as you try your best then you're all set -
my sac marks have been extremely crappish so far, but im not going to give up

Lol, a legend.

I have a friend whose parents make her retake Biology when she got a 39.
No I am not kidding.

As many as you have access to!  And I don't know...basically you just need to be good at short answer because most people get like 50% for that section.

An A is really good, as long as you keep up your good work and try to work a tiny bit harder from now on.

A 40 will be extremely possible.
