Use Past Papers to Explore Marine Science Concepts
Marine Sciences combines scientific knowledge with an understanding of the ocean environment. When working through previous questions, look for connections between physical processes, marine organisms and human activities.
A useful revision method is to attempt questions without your notes first. Highlight concepts that were difficult to explain or interpret, then return to your study material before trying similar questions again. When a memorandum is available, use it to examine the expected reasoning and scientific terminology rather than simply checking the final answer.
As your preparation develops, complete full papers within a set time to practise moving between different topics and question formats.
