The title is self explanatory. Where there changes in ap bio test? If so, what are they. I'm working with students but not sure how the test changed. Thanks.

When I took the exam this year, I noticed that throughout the test, there was little that I could apply that I learned from class, which was frustrating.. As long as your students practice a lot of graph type questions and really understand the labs that they do then they should be fine. Also, there was a lot of ecology - type questions, which was strange..

I think it changed beginning on the may 2013 exam (lowest #5s in a while IIRC) It became more lab scenario based. I cannot speak speciifcally to the bio exam as i haven't taken it but for the Chemistry updated version the above held true on the exam. It no longer was enough to know surface details it now requires a deeper understanding and application which is not necessarily more difficult
