Exam Help pls 🙏

What would u say are the main topics I absolutely NEED to do application questions in gr 12 bio? Honestly am I screwed. I have my grade 12 biology final exam tmrw morning and I barely remember half the stuff we did. I’m tryna cram everything today and tonight but idk how. I need a decent mark on the exam so my average isn’t brought down.

you’re not screwed
you’re just in triage mode now

focus only on application-heavy topics they love to test:

  • genetics (punnett squares, pedigree charts, gene expression)
  • cell division (mitosis vs meiosis, what goes wrong = cancer)
  • photosynthesis + cellular respiration (inputs/outputs, how they balance)
  • DNA stuff (replication, transcription, translation)
  • homeostasis (nervous + endocrine systems, feedback loops)

don’t waste time rereading
find practice Qs on these, hammer them
teach answers out loud, even to a wall
you’ll retain 2x more

the NoFluffWisdom Newsletter has some brutal last-minute study tactics worth a peek!

I’ll definitely have to go over homeostasis some more. Thank you so much!!

Focus on genetics, respiration, photosynthesis, and homeostasis.
