here's document with topic-wise biology essay questions strictly for M22 students!
hi to all fellow bio kids out there! so I have linked a 100+ page compilation of many many biology essay questions with mark-schemes for a quick look and a final revision! it is a non-exhaustive bank, but it is quite comprehensive.
I did copy paste these myself during school days to prepare for my biology exam when I used to be passionate about the subject, however today as we finish off with our final revision for M22, I feel devastated looking at the effort I put into compiling the mark schemes and making such a large document. Mostly because I progressively found myself losing my passion for biology and treating it as a " Oh! so much to study " subject rather than the " fun to study " subject it used to be.
I feel heavily disappointed because I remember the devotion with which I used to study this subject and I did not see myself feeling this underprepared for the exam. I spent a lot of hours compiling the questions and I did not want those hours to go in vain. If not me, I hope at least some fellow biology lover or learner could benefit from this compilation and use it as a tool to wrap up their revision.
I do not encourage learning from mark schemes, so if you are in year 1, kindly try to learn from your textbook rather than use this. But as a M22 student with a board exam 2 days away, at this stage it is crucial to see the pointers that examiners are looking for in order to ensure we meet the requirements in our answers.
compiling mark schemes and learning them as I compiled them used to be a highly fulfilling activity but at this stage I feel overwhelmed by the magnitude of the syllabus, unable to focus and crying as I see the hours I had put in going to vain. If this can help anyone at all, I would feel that the time spent has had some fruitful outcome.
good luck, and let us join hands to manifest an easy database question 💎
