Difference between Bio E and M

<p>Ok, I am confused. Are the 2 completely separate tests, or is there just a single section that is different?</p>

<p>thanks.</p>

<p>There are 60 core questions, and then 20 ecology and 20 molecular. You have to choose between ecology and molecular.</p>

<p>Oh, ok. Are the 60 core questions equally balanced between E/M subjects? What kids of questions are there?</p>

<p>they're balanced</p>

<p>Ok. So even if I take M, I still need to know all the E stuff... darn. I guess I have to study a little.</p>

<p>^ Yeah. YOU WILL. haha
Make sure to take practice E and M tests. That was my mistake. I didn't practice E at all which in turn, I think, caused me to have trouble on the core E questions, but then it's not the end of the world if you don't do the practice E tests. I think I def did 700+.. I'm hoping for a 750..but idk. lol.. so just make sure you practice the E as well.</p>

<p>E's not that hard. one just has to memorize a couple of concepts/ terms and that suffices.</p>

<p>Yeah, in my AP bio class my teacher emphasized the M stuff more. I always forget all the terms for E like the speciation and evolution terms. I will just need to go over it.</p>

<p>i didn't do any practice whatsoever except for one day of studying for the AP test night before in beginning of May; I'm certain that I got an 800 on the M section (though my AP biology class might be the best in the country...)</p>

<p>My biology class was really good this year too. I did not study at all for AP Bio and I think I only missed a few MC and maybe 1 or 2 from the essays. We just didn't go into ecology too much, and luckily the test didn't have much ecology. I will just need to memorize some words i guess.</p>

<p>Which textbook did you guys use in your AP Bio classes? I used Campbell's, and it was really really good. The test was a lot easier than I thought it would be.</p>

<p>We used the Audesirk book. It's not as detailed as Campbell's but my teacher taught us everything we needed to know, and i hardly needed the book.</p>
