Hints on How to get the most out of your textbook

Always read the focus sections – College Board always asks questions about the applications of biology concepts. = you will almost always been tested on this informationDefine all chapter vocabulary before you read the textDo Not write the chapter summaries from the outline, you will miss important explanationsStudy ALL the pictures. If you can explain all chapter pictures & diagrams you understand the informationUse the publishers website.********
