So I'm taking the Bio GRE this coming Saturday I've been looking through the Kaplan book to study. To anyone that has taken it already, do you have any studying and/or test taking tips??? Thanks 😀

Take a lot of upper-division bio courses. Seriously though, I did fine without studying and I was not a bio major. I did glance through the book, but I'm not sure I got much out of it (night before...). I forget which book I had but in the back there was a lot of basic material (carbon cycle, names of the prehistoric periods, metabolism, etc.). If you can pick up any of that this week it might help. There is so much ground they can cover, I would just do practice problems in the book, never know when they use old questions. Oh and don't guess, wrong answers hurt. But don't be scared, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. good luck!

Thanks, I've already graduated with a Biology degree so alot of the stuff is just review. The part I'm worried about is the Ecology stuff I haven't seen in over 4 years 😳

I never even studied ecology. So I answered very few of the ecology questions. Still did ok on the ecology section because I didn't guess.
