I have taken a few FL and every time I have scored the lowest in bio.

Specifically, I have trouble connecting all the technical terms together and finding the relationships among them, as well as making sense of the graphs.

Any general or particular strategies that you have found useful?
 
I had the same problem a few days ago. I decided to stop reading the whole passage and then going to the questions. Instead, i jump straight to the question and then search for the answer in the passage. I no longer miss the easy questions and i only really read the experiment once(and that's if they even ask about the experiment) instead of reading the passage initially and the rereading it. It takes some fine tuning, but the first FL i used this technique (which i went into with minimal practice of the technique) bumped my score by 7%. Try it out and see if it works for you.
 
for graphs, I redrew them in full, then put rephrased the answer rationale in my own words; after doing this a few times, it made sense... now graphs are pretty easy
