I struggled with the anatomy (all of it!). In my practice tests throughout the year i would never pass first time. When it came to revision i made colourful spider diagrams, tried to get one topic on each. Doing it this way made sure i got the basics in my head rather than trying to remember EVERYTHING. I found it worked really well for me, it made me really take in what was written in my notes.

I laminated a skeleton, the muscles and loads of others and then had labels that I had to put in the place, just making them helped so much to get it to stick. But I found it so much easier than looking in a book. Also I had posters everywhere even if i didnt conciously look and read them just seeing them everyday really helped, I found that the poster i had up opposite the toilet worked best

Normally 65% though I think if there is a greater number of students getting a much lower mark it may be altered (possibly?!)

i thought it was 65% but someone told me that it changes every year depending on the paper. dont know how true that is though!
