Thinking about taking Science at A level but not sure if it’s the right choice? In this episode, Sixth Form students talk honestly about what studying Biology, Chemistry and Physics at A level is really like. They discuss workload, content depth, how different it feels from GCSE, and what surprised them most once they started. If you’re weighing up your options or wondering whether science is for you, this episode will help you make an informed decision.

In this episode, I’m joined by Sixth Form students to explore the Biology topics GCSE students most often get wrong – and how to get them right.

From enzymes and osmosis to inheritance and graph analysis, they break down tricky concepts and share how they tackled them during their own revision.

There’s also discussion on how to approach six-mark questions and what really helps when it comes to learning Biology more confidently.

In this episode of The Science Edit we dive into the wonderfully revolting world of gross science. Listeners submitted their most disgusting science facts and our sixth form researchers have investigated which ones are actually true.

From worms that travel across your eyes to lizards that defend themselves by firing blood, from frogs cleaning out their own stomachs to the surprising truth about how much snot you produce each day, this episode uncovers the science hiding behind the facts you wish you could un-hear.

If you enjoy strange biology, unbelievable adaptations, and learning why your phone is one of the dirtiest things you own, this is the perfect episode to start with. Science is not always glamorous, but it is always fascinating.
