Less talk about the NHS and more talk about root pressure and blood vessels! We want AQA to stop undermining the potential of us biology students.

The Issue

The AQA biology exam sat on June 2nd was absolutely appalling. The exam did not test true knowledge of biology but instead pretty much memorisation of mark schemes from past papers. Well, is there a point in students investing tireless and countless hours for a whole year just so all their hard work can go down the drain because they forgot to include a 'key word'? Furthermore, a large proportion of the marks was HSW. We're here to learn how bodies and plants and whatnot work, not why a vaccine should be free on the NHS! Relevant to the specification, how? Sign this petition to make AQA aware of their stupidity and ignorance, take our concerns and opinions onto consideration, low those grade boundaries!
