Do you remember how many plant questions you got on your DAT?

Yep, I'm lazy and I hate studying plants! I know some of the basics but how much in depth should I go?

i had monocots/dicots

I've saved plants as a last minute cram, because I'd just forget it anyway.

I'm also wondering the same thing. Is the Cliff's chapter on plants way too detailed? What about the chart on qVault?

I just took my DAT today and had 1 plant question..

I had two.

The day I read evidence that knowing how many cotyledons a monocot has versus a dicot saves a tooth is the day I study plants.

not a single one.

here are many biology videos and very relevant to ap bio book as well

These videos are bomb. Just what I needed 3 days before my test to jam plants into my brain. Thanks!

Just know the basics - xylem, phloem and their fuctions (ex: xylem takes water/nutrients to where? what are the forces that help in this?). Also know about angiosperms and the parts of a flower (male/female), the reproductive cycle (sporophyte/gametophyte) and its differences, meristems (lateral and apical, cambium). This may seem like a lot of info, but just know the basics...nothing too in depth and it's better to know it and not be tested than to have a question on it and regret not studying it.

Also for classification, know that bryophytes (spelling?) are mosses with dominant gametophyte stage and tracheophytes are vascular plants. Hope that helps!

I took it yesterday and I don't think I got a single question on plants.

I got a lot of questions on reproduction though and that pissed me off because i barely spent any time studying that

Zero plant questions 😎
Worked out well for me because I did not study plants...kind of a risk there, but with a limited amount of time, everything else in bio > plants

Thanks all!
Gatecher, thanks for the tips. I'm saving the plants for last...but I won't go too much in depth but my luck I'll have 5 questions so better to study at least a little.
