Good luck with A level biology :p If you do Edexcel there's a lot of course content. Keep on top of it or you'll not understand some of the later modules and A2 work. I passed it at AS but failed at A2. I hated it.
I have noooo idea which exam board it's gonna be with yet, hope fully not that one ha. I get on really well with my biology teacher at school and she's said if there's any times that I can't get to see my teacher when i'm doing at college i.e we're on holiday but school is still open then I can go see her anytime I want which i'm extremely grateful for! Cos she's done a levels and a degree in it :D.
Plus I really enjoy doing biology and i find that in the lessons I love I do get good grades, but maybe it'll be different at college :/ I hope not!
Biology at GCSE is completely different to at A level :D I'm not trying to put you off, just giving you a heads up that it's not easy.
Yep I do it and its hard you need to work a lot
No, i'm glad you have told me! At least it gives me some idea of what to expect. I got a letter through this morning about a new student day on June 25th but i've just realised that I can't go because it's the same day as promQuote:

AS Human Biology
AS Biology
AS Applied ICT
AS Psychology
I was like :O noooooo not both biologies lmao. would be pointless anyway so i dunno how they've got mixed up. and i've changed the applied ICT cos i did actually put just ICT on my application and at my interview she wrote applied ICT for some reason :S
Thats odd that they do both biologys, my college only does the one
Some schools/colleges only do Applied courses in some subjects. The ICT is applied at my school, and I do Applied Business because they don't do normal business. Other than having crazy amounts of coursework there's not that big a difference.
Ooo, i'm glad N+CC do both, I absolutely hate all the parts about plants and that in biology; one word - BORING. well for me anyway lol.
Ahh i've just checked in the college prospectus and they do both, it says that the applied ICT is more on the media side and graphics and that which I do have an interest in but i'd rather do just ICT.
Spending all day today revising for our first RE exam which is tomorrow; got an email off my RE teacher with some stuff she was sending me to revise from and i'm glad she did because i've just read it and didn't know half of it before. We've had loads of disruptions with our lessons since year ten, our proper teacher Mrs Thompson went on maternity leave last March and only came back this march, then the teacher we had this year instead of Mrs Thompson got pregnant but she went into early labour and the baby died so she's had loads of time off, so through no fault of anybodies we've missed quite a lot of stuff; thank god for study leave is all I can say, we're going in on the days we would normally be timetabled for that lesson so we can get back on track! And with being at a Catholic school we he have to have 3 hours of RE a week so we've got a lot to do!
I did the one with plants *falls asleep* Transpiration, phloem, xylem, parenchyma, companion cells... couldn't have been more boring.
The first module on Edexcel is cells. Right down to micro organelles, ATP synthesis, ADP and loads of other stuff that I never understood :p
It's not an easy subject.
