Alysmay
Hi all, I'm Alys and I'm currently a student at the University of Exeter reading Medical Sciences. Hence I've uploaded revision documents on the lectures and topics for the first year of this course.
I also achieved an A* in my French A Level and so also have some documents that I made to help me on that course, as well as some GCSE notes.
Really hope these help you out in your studies and good luck for any exams you might be sitting in the future XX
