Revise These Topics For A/A* in A-Level Biology｜OCR A Biology Paper 3

This video discusses the topics I recommend you focus on to boost your chances of achieving a higher grade (A/A*) in OCR A A-level Biology Paper 3 2024. I examine the frequency of different OCR A topics from past papers based on their raw marks and cover what the UMS grade boundaries were for each paper 3, from 2017 to 2023.
I also give my predictions, but don't listen to me! I'm completely guessing and looking at patterns.

Gonna write some topics down that i remember haven't come up in paper 1 and 2, reply to add some i missed or if i made a mistake
1 - respiration (came up heavy in 2023 p3 tho)
2 - muscles, sliding filament etc
3 - neurones, action potentials and stuff
4 - patterns of inheritance
5 - transport in fish
6 - transport in plants
7 - oxygen transport, chloride shift etc
8 - cardiac cycle

cheers for this Aplasticrulers👍

[@batoolbx]

no populations and sustainability either !

[@icecone9300]

idt cloning and biotechnology came up at all either

[@ghyftdb]

hormonal communication

Uploaded later than I wanted but WE MADE IT! Good luck

[@shahzadi.zafira__]

I'm actually going to cry. Im losing it. I'm so scared I won't get the grades anymore.

[@peachesandapricots5010]

me too, like how am i supposed to get an A

[@shahzadi.zafira__]

@@peachesandapricots5010 aim for full marks now! we got 6 hours rn, make the most of it.

[@hooniexox8910]

Guys you’ve got this! You’ve worked so hard and it will truly pay off, just one final push 🎉 🙏

[@shahzadi.zafira__]

@@hooniexox8910 good luck to you too

[@Wow-t3h]

me too paper 1 messed me up so bad and then i messed up paper 2 so idek if i can get a B which is so embarrassing

[@h-honeybun]

the double posting goes crazyyyy single handedly blessing our exams this year 🔛🔝

[@Ika-zg7vz]

Thankyouuu this weeks looking horrendous after chemistry i have no energy left to revise for the other three😭

[@stung397]

Same here!

[@issyv.w748]

same I just cba anymore

[@deepthakkar116]

Omg the way I eventually chose to do my 134 cloning and biotech flashcards because you said it was a high yielding topic yesterday, and so much came up on it. Thank you so so much 🙏

[@sussybaka8605]

I NEEDED THIS SO BAD THANK YOU

[@bioexamtech]

immaculate

[@TomVanNiekerk]

I think that neuronal communication, transport in animals, transport in plans, patterns of inheritance, cloning and biotechnology and nucleotides and nucleic acids could very possibly come up. What does anyone think about those I can't remember for sure which topics have already come up.

[@khadijaahmed5355]

I was thinking maybe the liver (excretion) as it hasn't come up in a while

[@xxpingxxx5938]

@@khadijaahmed5355it came up as a one marker

[@TomVanNiekerk]

@@khadijaahmed5355 Oh hmm maybe but exrection came up a lot in paper 1

[@khadijaahmed5355]

@@TomVanNiekerk Yes it did but when I was doing past papers I realised that the liver hasn't come up in a while, the kidney won't come up but i defo think the liver will.

[@lamppost]

I was thinking neuronal communication as well, but the fact that the most marks for that topic has only been 3 between 2017-2023 is crazy and kinda makes me think it won't come up. still gonna revise it tho

[@soupdumplingss]

thank you data man
