   Choose your topic from the list – don’t forget to look at Practical Skills!

   Your class teacher has access to thousands of past exam questions and materials
    that can. Make sure you get their email address and contact them or see them in
    school if you are stuck. You must email from your school email address.
You must learn the following word and symbol equations and be able to
recall these in your exam.
Since the start of Y9, you have carried out 21 required practicals and are expected to be
able to answer questions about these.
Use GCSEPod or your revision guide to write a brief description, the independent variable
(IV, the variable you change), dependent variable (DV, the variable you measure) and
two control variables (CV, the variables you keep the same) for each of the required
practicals.
