Biology hhmm....

[FutureDoc4]

Okay, I am not sure what's going, I CANNOT seem to make the leap in bio, I have had an 11 since my diagnostic... and it won't budge.. any suggestions? The only pattern I seem to recognize is that I am not always getting all the info from the passage and I am more purely trying to go off my own knowledge. Let me know if anyone has any experience with this.... Please help!

interesting... for me it was the contrary - trying to utilize my own knowledge of the topics proved to be the most effective. I would use the passage for any questions I didn't know at the end. I'm doing 13-14 points on the bio section.

I can tell you how I did MY huge leap, although you probably won't do it, but I highly suggest it. I read the entire campbell 5th edition bio book over a week. I didn't focus on anything specific. I just read the whole thing as if it was some novel or something. Yes, I didn't need to know about plants or those random topics they seem to come up with at the end of the chapter, but I read them just like everything else. At the end of that week, when I came back to look at my EK books, I was doing the questions from an entirely different perspective. Somehow, w/o realizing it, I had tied all the concepts in the bio section together. I can't forget one thing, because the second thing that depends on it wouldn't work, and the third thing that depends on that wouldn't work either, etc.

Best of luck!

11 is pretty high - just keep doing practice tests - it's not like it matters if you go higher.
