Unit 3 Prac exam - revision tips please

Hi, so I have my internal unit 3 exam coming up soon on Tuesday, and I've been revising through the textbook, going through early biozone pages and started some Key Topic Tests from TSSM and I was just so shocked when I did the first few tests on the chemical nature of cells, as to how much I'd forgotten.
I knew all the basic concepts but some details I needed that showed up in the test I had completely forgotten about. Any revision tips and ways to link everything together please?

My main advice is to make your own CONCISE summary notes (using Key Knowledge dot points in the VCAA study design as headings to structure your notes).  Studying off the textbook is really hard, as you get bogged down in wayyy too much info; concise dot points are much easier.  If you haven't started, this can be a huge, daunting task so you could download other people's notes from the Notes section of this site.  However, just the act of making notes and sorting out the information is probably the best revision you could do!

I suggested some study tips in this thread, and the Biology Advice Megathread may have some good advice :)
