<p>^Wait, wait, it’s OK, my teacher told me that we’re covering those topics next year :)!</p>
<p>^Haha okay, that makes way more sense.</p>
<p>If I’m self-studying, would just reading cliffnotes AP bio and doing practice tests from the Cliffnotes and Princeton Review book work? I don’t think I have time to read through all the chapters in Campbell.</p>
<p>Also, is there really a lot of vocabulary terms on the AP test? What should I do to effectively memorize everything in the cliffnotes book? </p>
<p>Thx!!!</p>
<p>My friend literally just read Cliffnotes 3 times and got a 5. As long as you’re not a total delinquent, you should be fine. And yes, people from past years say to know the vocab!</p>
<p>So if I got a 5 on the Sparknotes MC(35/50) and I get 6s-8s on my free response questions, am I in good shape for a 5 on the actual thing with some review of the sections I did poorly on(plants/animal anatomy and function?) Oh and I got a 760 SAT II Biology in December 2011, although I’m unsure how much more difficult the AP Exam is. All of the tests I’ve taken vary so much in difficulty. Should I worry about this anymore, or start preparing for my Calculus AB exam, which I am in worse shape in?</p>
<p>
First, the ap bio exam is not only 50 MC. take a full length test then see what you get. and second use this calculator to figure out if you can get a 5 on the actual exam:[AP</a> Pass - AP Us Calculator](<a href=“http://appass.com/calculators/us]AP”>AP U.S. History Test Score Calculator - AP Pass)</p>
<p>Hey guys, just asking here if anyone has downloaded the bozeman biology videos before they were deleted. If so, I’d be REALLY grateful if you can send them to me or upload them in any way. Thanks!</p>
<p>Which Bozeman videos? I just checked and the lab ones are still there.</p>
<p>No, the ones for the curriculum, the lessons themselves not the labs, that were deleted.</p>

<p>[AP</a> Biology Video Essentials - YouTube](<a href=“AP Biology Video Essentials - YouTube”>AP Biology Video Essentials - YouTube)</p>
<p>This is bozeman?</p>
<p>I gotta ask, as a senior i’ve gotten really lazy and have a cliffs bio book but I can’t bring myself to read it.</p>
<p>Do you guys think if I watch all these videos I should be fine for at least a 3 on the exam? I’d have my cliffs open too, but to be honest I just can’t bring myself to read anything lol. Thanks</p>
<p>@thewonderer2 no, there was actually a playlist other than the AP Biology Video Essentials playlist that got deleted. The Essentials playlist just has the basics. The other one was called “AP Bio”, and he explained in it all the lessons in DETAIL. The other one acts as a strong intrudctory course, but nontheless has a lot of stuff missing. If anyone who has downloaded them before they were deleted could avtually upload them to the internet… man, that would really help a lot of us out there.</p>
<p>Pertaining to your question, I’m not really sure but to be on the safe side, here’s what I do: I Watch a video and then read the corresponding part in Cliffs. It works really good for me 
btw if u could get credit for this, it would definitely help u save a lot of money and future energy in college. u’re probably gonna study all this later in college, so better study it now :D</p>
<p>@Jason</p>
<p>Dude thats a brilliant idea. I’m going to try using Khan Academy though, he seems a lot more easier to understand</p>
<p>@thewonderer2 Unfortunately Khan’s bio videos don’t cover a lot. They fully cover cellular respiration and photosynthesis, cell reproduction (the whole mitosis/meiosis), some stuff on genetics, and some animal systems. But that’s it. Use khan academy, bozeman, and here are 2 other teachers who put their podcasts on the internet: [BradstreetBiology</a> - YouTube](<a href=“http://www.youtube.com/user/BradstreetBiology?ob=0&feature=results_main]BradstreetBiology”>http://www.youtube.com/user/BradstreetBiology?ob=0&feature=results_main) and [XsavageXsecretX</a> - YouTube](<a href=“Craig Savage - YouTube”>Craig Savage - YouTube) These should be sufficient :D</p>
<p>What are you guys doing for lab study? I mean what kind of questions are actually based on the labs? Do we just need to know the general scientific concept behind each lab or should we know specifics?</p>
<p>For the bio labs, its best to just skim them over your answers and memorize some of the specific calculations for osmotic pressure and stuff like that. You won’t have to go very in depth but reading over your answers and maybe an AP review book will help refresh your mind on what the lab is about/dealing with.</p>
<p>my teacher is a nitwit! We are on chapter 15… FIFTEEN! what the heck is she thinking???</p>
<p>thanks jasonjackson! These look great</p>
<p>How prominent are the labs on the AP Bio test?</p>
<p>if i remember correctly from last year, there was only one written question about the labs on the whole exam.</p>
<p>okay so im curious, is there a lot of chemistry related calculations on the AP bio test? or is it mostly memorization.</p>
<p>So i just took the 1994 test… and now it is completely evident that I know NOTHING about plants (specifically gamete/sporophyte, what the heck those are). I also know NOTHING about kingdom classification (archae/eukarya/prokarya).
Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can learn those? I think the Cliffs book will be good for Kingdom classification, I just havent really read that chapter.
But for plants, I read the chapter in Cliffs and STILL am clueless. Any advice?</p>
