I had an very pathetic AA of 12 when I took the diagnostic test months ago... I've been taking the Kaplan online course for the past 3 weeks. I just took a complete science test and scored 55% :scared: which I think is equivalent to 14/15?! While I was taking the test, I felt that I forgot all the topics that I've been studying for the past weeks.... man I'm so disappointed now...

I spent around 6 hrs everyday. For chemistry, I read over each chapter and wrote down the important points on flashcards. Then I did the practice questions at the back of the chapter. It normally takes me 2 hrs to finish one chapter. I tried to touch each subject a bit everyday, so I wouldn't forget the learned materials. I'm taking the exam in exactly 2 months from now.

I haven't been following any strategy to study for biology. Since there's about 16 biology chapters in Kaplan book, I'm thinking about studying for one chapter everyday and read over the same topic from other bio books and take notes. What do you think of this strategy?

Do you guys think that my strategy might have some problems that I'm not able to improve my scores? 😕 How are you able to retain the information you just read and apply on the test?


Thank you soooon much!
 
Hey

I suggest you try destroyer. It is really a good way to absorb information rather than reading it. All it is a lot of questions and detailed explanations. They are very difficult and I barely got 2 out 5 right when I went through it the first time. After going through it a couple times, i knew the information like the back of my hand. Its just another way of studying.

Good luck!

I have a copy of Destroyer with me, but I was gonna wait till I'm done with Kaplan. So do you think I should just do Destroyer simultaneously with Kaplan? or do Destroyer regardless my weak science foundation?
