I hated that skills exam I was so unprepared for it
Content exam would have been so much better I had every nook and cranny of the syllabus memorised

Hahaha yeah I s'pose, my rote learning is not that good so I usually just go off my intuition (which normally works alright), but this year especially I've been grinding out memorisation for bio chem eng and sor, which has been painful but paying off a lot. Either way I feel like I don't have a complete grasp on the syllabus despite having all the key concepts down and a really good working knowledge of everything, its mainly just examples that i struggle with which is pretty stupid but yeah. Also the intricacies of feedback loops, polypeptide synthesis and stuff i might drop a few marks at least I have a few weeks to do 10-15 more papers and smash this stupid exam hahaha

Yeah good plan it’s worth doing past papers to see where u consistently drop marks/ what u don’t know
I think I did about 6 papers max bc I was lazy and just spent more time memorising which in hindsight was stupid to do
Since u could get long answers from anything u should sit down with the syllabus and mark whatever dotpoints u would not be able to explain in that much detail and work on those
