<p>So this year I'm taking AP Biology and am doing well in the class. I read the book, do my homework and understand the material. But what I'm worried about, is that after time goes on, I forget the specifics of certain things. I don't forget the subject completely, but just some specifics. Is this a bad thing and will it affect me and the exam, or is it normal. Thanks!</p>
<p>Unless you happened to have a photographic memory, it’s perfectly normal. After all, if you do happened to remember the specifics, there would be no need to review for finals/ap exams right?</p>
<p>i think forgetting some concepts is normal. the concepts are studying to fade from me as well. but that’s why we have prep books to study before finals/midterms/ AP Exam. I think as long as the very important terms are understood, prep books will refresh memories.</p>
<p>If you work hard in the class and study as you should be doing, you’ll do fine on the AP tests. From what I remember, there’s a generous curve on the AP Biology exam, so forgetting some specifics won’t be detrimental. Usually, you can safely eliminate a couple of choice just based on general knowledge. Just work assiduously and you’ll be fine.</p>
