    1. Teacher gives half-sheet of paper that you can use during test
    2. Look at Matthew Choi and lie to yourself about getting a higher score than him.
    3.

    its easier to put stuff in your head then writing it on a tiny piece of paper... well at least for short term I find.

    good job though

    Our teacher said we could only write stuff on there. Otherwise I would be scanning some diagrams right now.

    whats the point of doing that

    you're gonna waste time reading your sheet trying to find what is where

    I wrote the chapter numbers in a circle and the slashes and boxes make it easy to find stuff, for me at least.

    well i bet you wont even use the sheet in exam because the simple act of writing it down like this will commit to memory

    bio is pure memory anyway

    Genetics started with RNA, not DNA.

    C - G
    A - T

    pff, use a hi-tec and you can even get more on the sheet

    I'd do that for my previous exams except we can't write in ultra small writing sad.gif

    Exactly. But without that, I wouldn't have got around to memorizing it.

    NUUU. That chapter test was the hardest for me.
    But for DNA A - T, G - C.
    But when translating to RNA A - U, G -C.
    That's about all I'm really good at.

    Just make sure you understand the key concepts, diagrams, and know your RNA biatch.

    thats pretty much the point of the exersize.
    its a trick alot of teachers use, makes the students study and remember everything, and feel confident coming into the exam.

    Even if you're not allowed to bring stuff into an exam, i'd recommend using the technique. Writing everything on a piece of paper.
