I am losing it!! stupid ap bio...

Test Preparation AP Test Preparation
1

<p>So i have 5 chapters left in cliffs for bio...and these are the HARDEST chapters ever.</p>

<p>I have been studying since 11 with maybe a 30 minute break TOTAL and I'm completely losing it. For heredity, i answer the questions at the end and I fail it. I completely fail it. Becuase honesly, I'm sick and tired and this dumb book doesn;t explain what autosomal dominant is or how to do any of the crap.</p>

<p>I am so annoyed that if I get a 2 or below on this test, my A in the class (which is extremely hard to come by) will mean NOTHING to colleges. Nothing. I hate AP testings. argh.</p>

<p>my rant to clear up my head, sort of..</p>

2

<p>Your A in the class will still mean something to colleges. It keeps your GPA up.</p>

3

<p>No what I mean is that the colleges will think that my teacher is extremely easy and that As are hard to come by. It is not easy to get an A in this class. My teacher is extremely difficult.</p>

4

<p>Well, I’m sure your teacher has prepared you well for the test then.</p>

5

<p>My AP teacher doesn’t even teach the curriculum. He has openly spoken against college board. I’ve been on cliffs since last night (after apush) non-stop. I’m going insane. I REALLY dislike the immune and nervous system, and the 10 billion types of fungi and bacteria.</p>

6

<p>if your class was hard…then how do you not know any of it? O.o
like my class was bad but we got through heredity and we know it cold…</p>

7

<p>I mean he is difficult in the sense that he doesn’t teach that much, lol. His tests are like 30x harder and I keep getting high Cs to B+s on them. I have only gotten 1 A on a test. I ace the labs and other stuff, but his tests are ridiculous</p>

<p>and yea i agree velleity, the immune and nervous aren’t too bad…but plants and stuff are getting on my nerves T_T</p>

<p>I mean I know it but i need to review. And I have forgotten stuff that I have learned.</p>

8

<p>^ That’s me, too.</p>

<p>Autosomal dominance is the most basic dominance… Just dominance in the non-sex chromosomes, heterozygotes show dominant phenotype</p>

9

<p>Bio is my favorite subject, don’t get me wrong. I plan on going into pre-med. The only thing i hate is heredity and plants and photosynthesis…</p>

10

<p>ouch that’s the worst kind of teacher
my teacher is bad, but easy lol
the Biological Diversity chapter is the worst
i am not going to remember all of that</p>

11

<p>yea well he teaches but he just talks for like 10 minutes…o well… w/e </p>

<p>i suck with plants</p>

12

<p>I would recommend watching some animations, they really help tie the knots when you don’t understand</p>

13

<p>If you have the newer cambell edition of the book, and it came with a cd, you should def. look at the animations on the cd, I agree. they REALLY help.</p>

14

<p>You don’t have to report AP scores to colleges. And admissions don’t even look at that really. If you have the most challenging courses with good GPA, and satisfactory AP scores, ur fine.</p>

15

<p>^…what? </p>

<p>yea I’m gonna study all night long</p>

16

<p>

</p>

<p>…how the hell do you have an A then? lol.</p>

17

<p>because I ace the labs which I get 100s on all of em. I do good on the projects, etc. I mean most of the time i have high B’s on tests, just maybe a few C+. but thats it. and Labs and projects weigh more than tests, so yea thats why</p>

18

<p>im sure your A is so “hard to come by” if he doesnt do jack ****</p>

19

<p>ok ***…im not saying he is a bad teacher. he teaches, but we haven’t gone over a lot of stuff. </p>

<p>calm down, no need for bad language…</p>

<p>and was that “so hard to come by” crack an insult at me? explain what you meant by that</p>

20

<p>You’re not the only one. I’m losing it, too. I also got psych and env. sci. to study for.</p>
