AP Biology (2012-13 version) Help please!

<p>So I am having a lot of trouble with this class. I seem to be getting the same grades for each test and it's pretty annoying. Almost every test I receive I end up with a 78 or 79 on. My MP1 grade is a 79, MP2 79, and Midterm 78. I've tried everything from tutors to afterschool help to just winging it...I still get the same grade! It's not that I don't understand the material, but it's actually APPLYING it. The new test format stresses application than memorization, so my teacher did the same. I practically memorized the textbook, I do the study guides and study almost everyday, I pay attention in class, etc. but i still can't get over the C area :( I hope to get over that with a B- average at least. Any advice? Thanks!</p>
