<p>To those of you who have made 5's on the Advanced Placement Biology Exam, which chapters would you say are a "must-know?" 50+ chapters seems a bit overwhelming and I doubt my high school course will cover it all, but Im willing to do what it takes to get a 5. Any help is gladly appreciated.

<p>sorry to break it to you- but i think you need to cover everything. Just get a cliff book and study out of that. That's all I studied and i got a 5</p>
<p>ihardly studied anything, i just used a review book, the exam was easy easy easy i got a 5.</p>
<p>study the labs i guess, have a vauge idea how they work all of them bc there is sure to be at least one question on them--yeah just use review books, dont read the actual cahpters, they give you ten times more than you need.</p>
<p>Although I did not take the test yet, I am a sophmore and I will be preparing for the test (May) with my Cliffs AP Biology book. Does anybody else think this is fine, as far as covering all of the necessary information to get a 5?</p>
<p>I just studied from the Cliff notes guide.</p>
<p>thanks for all of your advice. my teacher was saying that if we rely soley on the Cliffs than we would 9/10 times get a 2 lol, and so I was thinking I would need to read the entire book.</p>
<p>Well, your teacher was looking at people in general, and going by the "be safe than sorry" plan.</p>
<p>It's good to actually take some type of biology course before, or regardless, of the exam. I learned a lot from my Biology class, opened up to looking at the environment differently, etc. (Corny I know.)</p>
<p>But I did get a 5, and I never used a review book.</p>
<p>Well, did your teacher have 10 students who never went to class and just studied from the Cliff Notes guide, and 9 of them got 2's?</p>
