GCSE Biology Revision

At Online Exams, we offer help for students of all ages in core subjects. This week we are putting a focus on the best revision materials for GCSE Biology. The best revision resources should include example questions, practice papers and initial notes to revise from. It is really important for students to create a plan before they start revising, we believe it makes revision more effective and easier to stick to. 

The first step in your GCSE Biology revision should be learning the key facts until you have the confidence to recall them. It’s advised that you then use this knowledge to attempt the example questions, which will help you solidify the work you’ve learnt even further whilst getting used to different styles and difficulties of exam questions.

GCSE Biology practice papers can then be used to measure what you’ve learnt. A lot of students waste practice papers by using them first, but by using them last you can make a note of key topics where you made mistakes. Whilst marking a completed paper, note down the areas where you lost marks so you can use this as a reference of areas to revise more. This is a great opportunity to learn from your mistakes, and after repeating this process a few times you should notice a general upward trend in marks. On completion of all the practice papers, you should be ready to sit your GCSE Biology exam.
