I need some help

Hi, everyone

I am doing Bi3/4 this year, but I didn't do the 1/2. I have read the textbook for a few times, and I think I understand the key terms. However, in my SAC, which was yesterday. I didn't know what to write in it, what's the problem with me?
Do I have to remember every key terms and understand the ideas behind them?
Thanks in advance.

Hey, I've actually also just started Bio 3&4 myself without 1&2.
Based on the advice I received and from my experience so far, you're at no disadvantage for not doing 1&2. In regards to your SAC, sorry to hear that but try to practise more- often there's no problem with understanding the concepts but rather expressing yourself well in your answers as well as being concise.
Personally, I think it would be a good idea to remember the key terms but more importantly, try and see how they relate to eachother- this will test your understanding.
Good luck and don't give up!

It seems that in your case, knowing the key terms is not your problem, but how you use and express them is what you are having trouble with (something I can relate to). Instead of just memorizing the key terms now, you should also try and attempt a lot of worded questions, in order to practice your expression.

Yes, you are right. I should work on how to express the terms in practical questions. Thanks for your help

Yeah, expressing the terms is the big problem for me. Thanks for your help.
