Self Studying Bio Subject Test Advice

<p>I want to take the Bio Subject Test in October. I took bio this past year, but it honestly wasn't my best class. I didn't like the way the teacher taught the class, and as a result I feel as though I underperformed and don't know as much about bio as I <em>should.</em> What are your suggestions for studying bio over the summer so I can do well (650+) on the subject test? I already have the Princeton Review book to study from.</p>

<p>Creafully read the review book. :)</p>

<p>^ Dyslexia at it’s finest. Juuust kidding! ;)</p>

<p>^lol</p>

<p>Yeah, you should thoroughly review the PR book (picking up Cliffnotes might not be a bad idea, either) and take plenty of practice tests to become more comfortable with the time constraints.</p>

<p>Ugh, whatever. :)</p>

<p>Would the Barron sat biology book be worth it also? (Coming from a person with a decent biology background)</p>

<p>I’m sure it would be worth it, although I’ve read that it has a few mistakes in the info/types. (Barrons needs more careful editors. :confused: ) </p>

<p>Does anyone know if the Princeton Review 2005-06 edition is significantly different from the newer editions? It’s the only one my library has, and the only one I can use for a while.</p>

<p>Barron’s Bio with Princeton Review as a supplement or vice versa. DO IT.</p>

<p>Cliffnotes helped me get a 5 on my AP exam and a 740 on the SAT II. I highly recommend it. Quality information</p>

<p>I got a 780 on SAT II and 5 on AP bio all self studied in my freshman year. I recommend you to use both princeton review and cliffnotes. In my opinion, if you are taking the M section (which i recommend), I liked the princeton better but a lot of people also cliffnotes. I don’t like barrons because for all the tests (except for Comp Sci), I tested 4’s and barely 700’s on their practice tests but in the real tests, I get 800’s and 5’s, so i think the difficulty of barrons is a bit unrealistic and there was wrong information (TMI) on the euro barrons book! (so i dont recommend it)</p>

<p>bio is a cake walk, isn’t it^ :)</p>
