If you've just started Year 12, you may still be in the habit of relying solely on textbooks (like CGP) or YouTube for your A-Level Biology revision.

This makes loads of sense - you did this all through GCSE and may have even got an 8 or 9.

However - relying solely on this for A-Level Biology is not going to get you the A or A* you need. A-Level Biology has an extremely strict mark scheme and you need a set of notes that are packed with terminology that is actually on the mark scheme.

Sure - the textbook and YouTube is going to teach you Biology, but it won't tell you what wording is correct for achieving the mark scheme points (even textbooks that are endorsed by your exam board).

Back when I did A-Level Biology, I made mark scheme specific notes myself, but it took so long!

Now, I make mark scheme specific notes for my students based on going through every single A-Level Biology past paper. And 12 years later - I still wish I had these notes when I started Year 12!

Do you think these notes would help you? Comment below if you'd like a sample of them for your first unit test!

It breaks my heart when I meet resit students, and it is clear how much work they put into A-Level Biology 💔

Unfortunately, as frustrating as it is, A-Level Biology is not a subject that rewards students on revising a lot of content alone - in fact, this will cap you at a C (when you realistically need an A* for Medical school).

You need to be extremely strategic about which type of words we are learning - because there's a bit difference between

(1) A biological processes written out that is GENERIC

(2) A biological processes written out that is MARK SCHEME SPECIFIC

When I read the exam scripts, it's clear that resit students (sitting at a C) know Biology - but it's generic - we need to learn the process whilst incorporating the mark scheme terminology, so we are writing out Biological process THAT GET AWARD MARKS ON THE EXAMINER'S MARK SCHEME!

This is why it's SO important to review exam scripts (even mock exams) - because if you're stuck on a B or C the answer in rarely revise more A-Level Biology content (!!!)
