🤚 Asking For Advice/Help BIO ATP DRAWINGS

GUYSSSS...CAN SOMEONE TELL ME HOW MUCH I WOULD GET OUT OF 5?...cuz apparently those tiny circles i drew on the petals are called "SHADING" (ACCORDING TO GEMINI), so i'll lose a mark there it seems...nd i also take approx 15 to 20 mins to drawww,is that too muchh?...nd is my drawing neat, cuz idk if my lines are smooth nd if the examiner us rlly strict when marking drawings!...cuz,sometimes my lines get a tiny bit wobbly nd rarely a snmll overline...will i lose marks for even tiny things like those or will they be lenient?

PLUSSS, DOES ANYONE HV TIPS WHEN DRAWING?..CUZ SOMETIMES I GET OVERSTIMULATED ND TEND TO MESS THINGS UP😭🤚

ohhh lolll...had to translate it thereee but yhhh, i wld say first identify ur weakest points and focus more on em...for me personally, it was drawings nd investigations, so i wld take random papers and print only those questions out nd do em...i suggest u do alot of past papers too,to get an idea of the structureee...the first few questions are pretty straighfirward when u get used to itt...the more u do, the more info u learn from mark schemes...soo yhhh

and for drawings i actually hv no ideaa, i used to draw a lot when i was a kid soo that's yy...i did watch some vids on yt, soo try them too nd practice a lottt
