You'll hate plants even more if you do biology first year at melbourne uni (plant photosynthesis, reproduction, leaf structure and function, plant defence, plant transporting systems of water and sugar, plant development) are some of the most boring concepts you will ever learn.

Also had plants (figuratively) crammed down my throat). My theory is they only teach it to give the botany professors a job.

Try looking at the questions found in the previous exams from the VCAA website.

Well the concepts are actually pretty easy in plant stuff they're just really boring, so trolololololol right back? :P

Does much differ between biomed biology to science biology other than the lack of plant stuff?

As long as you know your stuff, you should be fine just doing exams. You can make a summary if you want, but its a bit late for that.
