So my year 11 exam week is in 2 weeks and I have 3 practical tests (chem bio phys), I have never done a practical assessment b4, how do I prepare myself instead of receding away from procrastination (which I'm already bad at)?



-Much thanks

My first practical exam was last term for Bio and i honestly did not know how it works. What i wish i had done was looked over every single experiment done in class and just remembered how to do each one and maybe even memorise results as a back up in case you mess up. With me i definetly did not study the experiments hard enough and when i got to the exam i really stared at the equipment for a good 10 mins not knowing what to do until i just did what everyone else was doing and somehow passed the exam. So yea look over the experiments and make sure you can write a report on each and just gather some simple background information on each experiment and you should be okay. GOOD LUCK!!

Make sure you understand and can apply the experimental process/scientiffic method stuff and all the correct forms/terms and analysis that goes with it

With me we had two parts. Theory and prac. Out of all the 6 pracs we had done so far we were given one to do on our own under exam conditions and write a report to it. The second part was answering questions as well as drawing from what we see on a microscope. It was not hard because the prac we got had obv been done in class but you do need to remember how to do it and what results are expected
