Biology Focus Booklet
Over 75 exercises with more than 1400 questions; all adapted from past Higher and Ordinary Level Leaving Certificate examination papers. The number of exercises per topic reflects the frequency at which the topic is asked and hence its importance.
Each section of the book relates to a single element of the syllabus. Each section is divided between KEYWORDS and EXPLANATIONS. Students are required to have a general understanding of the KEYWORDS listed at the beginning of each section. Detailed explanations of keywords are unlikely to be required in an exam context, but familiarity with the terms will contribute to the student’s comprehension of the topic at hand.
The EXPLANATIONS section lists words that previous exam papers have required students to explain in detail. Students should therefore familiarise themselves with the in-depth explanations provided.
