<p>Plans for last minute cramming??</p>
<p>I feel pretty well versed in the majority of topics, so tonight I’m going to study for about an hour and a half more. After Mother’s Day Brunch tomorrow, I’m studying from 1 p.m.-midnight, reading through at least 4 or 5 chapters in my barrons, studying tests, a practice test, etc! :D</p>
<p>reading through my 5 steps to a 5 book… i had a good teacher though and some topics i know pretty well. i took the practice test on sparknotes and they said id get a 5. cant complain!!! im just freaked about the free responses- like if i dont know one… i really want a 5</p>
<p>anyone know for the Cliff’s ap biology book if the taxonomy section is TOO specific? It goes into like phylum and sometimes even class on every kingdom.</p>
<p>Yeah, I found that the Cliff’s is particularly dense for a review/prep book. But again, it’s biology so there should be a lot of material.</p>
<p>I have church all morning and then the school play which should all wrap up around 3:30 or 4:00. I plan to study until 10 and then sleep until 3am when I will wake-up and study until the test.</p>
<p>What’s your opinion of the 2002 AP Bio exam? I got a 90% on it, and I’m pretty happy about it.</p>
<p>90% is pretty high, so no matter the level of the test (all released official tests are about the same), you should be fine</p>
<p>Night before the test rituals?</p>
<p>are we allowed to use calculators/graphing calculators on this exam?
i forget</p>
<p>drose1: no</p>
<p>Unfortunately, not. They don’t even allow them on the chem multiple choice, which I think is stupid.</p>
<p>komets41: i would personally get more sleep, falling asleep during an ap exam will rape your score</p>
<p>Plans for night before test?</p>
<p>Yay! Just took the 1994 test, got a 72/100! I would just need decent essays, and I can get a 5! WOOHOO!</p>

<p>How do you guys remember everything to do with plants? I find myself forgetting the names of the structures, plus primary vs. secondary growth is pretty confusing for me to understand intuitively. >_></p>
<p>Alternation of generations is also pretty confusing. The sporophyte produces gametes, and so does the gametophyte…</p>
<p>ronaldo, i would suggest for you to go over plants tonight. they make up a huge section of MC and appear on fr often.</p>
<p>OK, so reading through Cliffs, there is a LOT of stuff in the “biological diversity” part. Do I have to memorize ALL of that stuff on fungi and things?</p>
