mimii Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 My eams start on my forst day back in January, and now, I have to get revising, the only subject I'm worring about is Bio-and its HL the info above, is something that we all have, so I've been looking for exam papers, and I've found it impossible to get them! Does anyone know where you can actually get (free) the exam papers-past papers obviously to practice with-and hopefully print out??!! yeaaa i had the same question. my exam is in two weeks and i'd really like to get some sample questions just to practice at home. i went on this website : http://www.saburchill.com/border/awards.html but it doesn't have any sample questions for biology . Does anyone know of a website i could visit? please? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandwich Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 thank you soo much!! you've been a lot of help!! by the way, which onw qould you guys recommend as an option:microbes and biotechnology or ecology and conservation????Ecology is the most boring thing ever invented, although it's quite an easy option otherwise.

suggaplum Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 thank you soo much!! you've been a lot of help!! by the way, which onw qould you guys recommend as an option:microbes and biotechnology or ecology and conservation????honestly speaking, both are excessively boring. I am currently doing ecology and conservation and i just did microbes and biotechnology. However, if i were you, I would choose microbes and biotechnology since ecology was already a chapter in the SL syllabus Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
suggaplum Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 Since the Biology paper is tomorrow and I haven't exactly revised at all, can anyone suggest an easy way to remember all the material in Plant Science? I don't like it very much, so the information refuses to stay in my brain..Thanks! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ananya.agrawal95 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Theres a teacher on youtube under the channel BozemanBiology. He does AP bio (and physics and chem i guess from his other vids) and its pretty helpful Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
claudika94 Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 here is a great website for studying biology. It includes all the topics you have to study in the right order.

funny10sport Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Here are some other great websites I found for Biology. Most of them are IB specific however there are others that are not but still provide very good information and revision for Biology in general. The links should still be working.I think everyone likes this one because it has all the topics and some options (A, E, H).http://click4biology.info/For the BBC websites, I have this other link, hopefully it works for you guys!http://www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/learning/bitesize/higher/biology/Animation Websites This website provides good animation with extra side notes for further explanations.http://www.johnkyrk.com/index.htmlRevision notes, simple and precise + some optionshttp://www.revision-notes.co.uk/IB/Biology/Standard_Level/index.htmlThe narrator speaks along with the animation, providing more information.http://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072437316/student_view0/chapter12/animations.html#Youtube Khanacademy, he provides many videos, filled with good information and easy to understand explanations. Check out his Biology playlist for the videos.http://www.youtube.com/user/khanacademy Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
violets Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 In Section B of Paper 2 (the extended-response questions), would writing the answer in bullet points be good or bad for achieving quality marks? Our teacher advised us to answer in bullet points but all of the sample answers I've seen are in prose format. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
