okay so far ive read cliffs bio took good notes, skimmed kbb bio, read alans notes, gone through destroyer once

should i even bother redoing the bio section of destroyer?

i plan on going through the chem and orgo parts a second time and not sure if ill have enough time. 🙁

I would say focus on everything else on the exam; what the bio tests is more of the subtle things that you can remember that you really don't think about, the other stuff should be fine if you have been studying it for while. Some of my bio questions today were completely random... Kind of like a fun fact that I should have remembered from 8th grade. It's really hard to do great on this section, since there is usually once or two curve balls thrown at you. But im sure you'll do just fine!

I don't think the bio section of destroyer gets enough credit. I thought it was a pretty good representation of the types of "random" questions you see on the actual test, especially if you have already gone through all of those resources and have a foundation...it's a good way to solidify what you already know and forces you to use those concepts you just learned.

+1 to josh's comments...

though i feel your time can be better spent reviewing bio from cliff AP and alan's notes then doing all of the destroyer problems again. (find what areas you got wrong in destroyer read those explanations and read Cliff AP section on it)

take notes on anything you dont know ONLY... sometimes having great notes but on everything reduces how hard we review them... review turns into skimming. (know that, know that, accidentally skipped something you dont know...) this way everything you are reviewing has to be read slow and comprehended and your also not wasting time reviewing subjects your are 100% on.

just my advice, and good luck
