Biology Problem!

Hey everyone. I took biology 2 years ago, I don't remember it. My problem with the biology was that I crammed , I got a good grade and then I forgot about it.

I don't like Biology, and I didn't study well during the semesters, it was always cramming before test day.

Now I know the recommendations for the biology is to get: Cliff for bio 3rd edition, and Feralis notes. I also downloaded the powerpoint for Biology (Campbell book). I even have another book that has 1000 questions and answers. I also have the Ap Barron biology and the blue book from Kaplan which is, to be honest too concise.

My problem is,
I don't know how to study biology.
I day dream when I hold the book!

Any methods that work will be much appreciated!

Oh let me tell you my method first: I read the page skim it, then read it again. That's it, then, of course, I daydream 🙁

I plan to study for 2 hours each day during this coming month.

I just watched Coursesaver biology videos and took notes. Then I made flashcards out of those notes. It's missing a lot of topics, though, so you gotta fill in the blanks with some other resource.

Noooo way I would be able to read a textbook, I'd fall asleep.

This is awesome! I like to study my other courses watching videos. Thank you I just checked your breakdown, it's 50 dollars for 30 days, just what I want for now!
How many hours every day for biology would be ideal?

My own schedule was very loose, but I'd say I spent around 3-5 hours a day studying at the time.

The link below is actually a list of other people's breakdowns. Here's my breakdown if you wanted to see it.

your scores are more than impressive
26 in RC! Wow, that is just amazing, I am planning to read Scientific American articles every day to improve my RC. What do you think about that?
26 in Pat is awesome.
I hope you got accepted where you wanted to.

Thanks man, I was lucky enough to get in at my 1st choice.

I think any sort of reading will benefit you for the RC section. But if you can handle the ideas presented in scientific articles (like Sci.Am.), you'll do great.

Yeah I read a lot! Finished about 55+ novels for 2016 🙂
but yeah mainly, sci-fi and fantasy, scientific about them 😀

Sorry about that
I'll fix it

Any other suggestions?

You can watch Bozeman science for general concepts and good explainations. That with Feralis will complete all you need to know.

wow thanks. That's super helpful!

I second Bozeman science. I remember watching those my freshman year and thought they were very helpful for various bio topics.
