I know what to use, but HOW do you study bio?

[tandem7]

Help! I'm freaking out. Even though I got A's in both Gen Bio I and Gen Bio II, there is still so much material I need to get into my head before I take the DAT in May. I have Cliff's AP, Barron's Flashcards, and DAT Destroyer, but it is hard for me to retain all these new words and concepts (even though I have a good memory). I am really freaking out. My question to all of you is---HOw did you actually study bio, memorize concepts, etc?

Read chapters, reread chapters, think about pathways, draw them out, make flash cards, reread chapter again, draw things out again. Repetition for me really engrains concepts in my brain.

I know it just seems like there's SO MUCH! Thanks for the reply.

just tackle one subject at a time. I read 2 chapters of Cliffs every other day with associated flash cards and practice problems. So far so good.
