A-level Biology: revise the spec, not the textbook

High-yield topics, command words and the definitions examiners actually mark, with past-paper-style quiz.

The spec is the exam. Everything they can ask is written in it.

High-yield first

Cell transport, enzymes, exchange surfaces and genetics come up every year. Start where the marks are, not at page one.

Define: active transport


Movement of molecules against the concentration gradient, through carrier proteins, using energy from ATP. Three parts — examiners mark all three.

A question starts with «Explain why…». What are they marking?

  1. AA definition
  2. BCause linked to effect, step by step
  3. CA labelled example
  4. DA diagram

«Explain» means a chain of reasons: because X, therefore Y. A definition alone scores one mark out of three — link every step.

Command words decide marks

«Describe» wants what happens; «explain» wants why; «evaluate» wants both sides and a verdict. Answer the verb, not the topic.

Enzymes after 60 °C —


Denatured: the active site changes shape and the substrate no longer fits. Never say «killed» — enzymes aren't alive, and examiners dock it.

The week before the paper

  1. One past paper, timed, marked by you
  2. Cards for every mistake, nothing else
  3. Redo only the failed cards, daily

Stop rereading the textbook. Train the questions.

Now do it with yours.

Paste your own study material and Claude writes the deck on your phone.

With Pablitos, any document — or anything you ask Claude or ChatGPT — becomes training you will actually do, in seconds.

  • Certifications and licences — CompTIA, NCLEX, the DMV test, as daily practice
  • Job interviews — paste the posting and walk in knowing what they will ask
  • Exams — SAT vocabulary, the citizenship questions: the parts that repeat
  • Homework help — explain it without just giving the answer

Built from a real A-level biology spec, dropped into Claude

Quiz answers, audio and your progress live in the app — where the AI adapts the deck to your own situation.
