How to tackle BIO section

Where do I begin? What is the best strategy?

I think you should begin with Feralis notes, because it has everything Cliffs has and more. Then do DAT Destroyer. After that go read cliffs and reread Feralis notes. Then you can do practice tests on DAT Bootcamp. Repeat this cycle as many times as you have time for. Just don't do it once, or even twice, because you'll forget a lot of it. Make sure t print out Feralis notes and look up anything you don't understand.

I read every chapter in Barron's AP and Cliff's AP (both 4th editions). Barron's has more pictures so you can actually see what is happening and I used this as the starter for every lesson. Then after that I would go ahead and read Cliffs and take notes while I did it. I do not necessarily review the notes, but it has worked to memorize some stuff in my brain that I could never get by solely reading. You may not have to take notes if you memorize info from reading, but everyone is different!

After you have covered topics, do ALL the problems in Destroyer, Bootcamp, and DATQVault. And after that, do them again! Bio on the DAT is so much info that you need to know your s***. But remember, "breadth over depth" when studying for bio 😉
