Best wishes for the exam!

I'm pretty sure that most of you are focused on the English exam tomorrow (if applicable), and the last thing you want to be bothered with is biology :P.

BUT, I'd just like to extend all my best wishes to you 2013ers and 2014ers who've frequented the Biology board this past year and will be sitting the exam in a couple of days. I've had the privilege of corresponding with a number of you both on the forum and by PM throughout the year, and I'm super excited for you all to put the biological knowledge and skills you've learnt this year into practice.

Just some advice for the final lead-up to the exam:

  • After you finish the English exam tomorrow, take a rest for a few hours. Do something non-academic and as relaxing as possible before jumping back into the end-of-VCE rush. The English exam can be pretty emotionally exhausting, so give your mind a break before settling down to do any final prep for biology.
  • Don't overdo it on the cramming for the exam. The best thing to do is some light reading, fact-checking any definitions you're not totally comfortable with and maybe one or two more practice exams (but only if you feel up to it). There's no use trying to cram a course as huge as biology in one evening - it's just going to make you panicky and upset.

Also, don't forget that just because you can't remember something from the theory right now, doesn't mean you won't recall it when you need it.

I hope that all your exams (especially biology!) go extremely well. 50s for everyone! :D
