GCSE Biology Revision

Here at Literacy Skills Test we pride ourselves on providing students with the support they need in preparation for their exams. We cover all the core subjects of maths, English and science but here we will focus on a student’s GCSE biology revision. There are many people who struggle with biology even though quite a few people find it enjoyable. In comparison to the other sciences, biology has less mathematical problems to solve but there are more facts to learn. To ensure a passing grade, learners need the best study resources available. We provide support in many ways including 1-2-1 tutoring and recommending what we think are the best GCSE biology revision resources.

You can find many different kinds of resources for biology but finding the right one for you may be a bit harder. It is important to have effective resources as not everyone responds to the same materials in the same way. Beginning your revision process would be going over the topic and just revising the subject. You can also use online revision notes like the ones on MME as they can prove to be very useful. Once you feel like you have gained a good understanding of the topic, you can then go ahead and attempt to answer the practice questions. These practice questions allow you to test yourself and how strong your knowledge is of the subject. After that you should be a bit more confident and can head onto the exam style questions that give you a good challenge. It puts you in exam-like conditions with authentic problems to answer. To be put in a situation like this can really prepare you well for your actual exams. The final part of your GCSE biology revision would be going through the biology past papers.

Biology can be tricky for many people so if you are in need of support we would be more than happy to help. Our tutors specialise in each of the major exam boards including AQA and Edexcel. If you have any questions on your mind, please get in touch.
