In Biology the exam will cover Unit 1-10 (10 may or may not be included depending on how much we cover in class).
all topics (1-10) will be in the multichoice paper 1 e.g. http://www.cie.org.uk/images/167454-2016-specimen-paper-1.pdf
And in alternative to practical style questions e.g http://www.cie.org.uk/images/167464-2016-specimen-paper-6.pdf
The on the past few topics (7,8,9 and 10) Animal nutrition, plant transport, transport in humans) in a long answer paper e.g.
http://www.cie.org.uk/images/167460-2016-specimen-paper-4.pdf
To revise I recommend you use the following template to plan your revision.
I would also recommend that you start with the last few topics Animal nutrition and plant transport then work backwards to
the earlier topics.
How to effectively revise? You have 7 weeks and 10 topics.
Week 1.Animal nutrition and nutrition (unit 5 and7)
Week 2 Plant transport
Week 3 Plant nutrition
Week 4 Enzymes
Week 5 Movement in and out of cells
Week 6 classification and cells.
Week 7 Unit 10 and revise everything.
1. Use your revision guide,the text book and/or my power points http://missmarshscience.weebly.com/biology-year10.html to make your own condensed revision notes. Other good websites include
https://www.xtremepapers.com/revision/gcse/biology/ which provies less detailed but condensed information.
2. Ensure you have definitions for all key words we have covered. This quizlet may help.

3. Use the summary questions and exam style questions in the text book at the end of each topic under exam
conditions (1 min a mark) and bring these in for me to mark.
4. Anything you do not understand please come and ask me inside or outside lessons (P-8 excepts Tuesday is best but I am
here before school everyday and I stay late).
