Hey J_Rho  :)
They are actually on A4 (I just took a screen shot of the study design and pasted them into a doc, giving me room to write around it). But using A3 is a great idea as it will give you more space to annotate (and make it easier to actually read what the study design is haha)!

For the summary error document, how did you write it out? Did you write questions your struggled within the textbook and practice exams or questions just from the SACs I am thinking to use this technique. :)

For the summary error document, how did you write it out?

Hi! I set mine out using headers from the study design (eg. PLASMA MEMBRANES). Underneath this heading, I would write KEY information that I thought would be useful in the exam. Below this, I would have any errors I made surrounding this topic in practice exams and questions throughout the years. These errors were separated into GENERAL mistakes and SPECIFIC mistakes.

Did you write questions your struggled within the textbook and practice exams or questions just from the SACs I am thinking to use this technique. :)
Honestly, I only lost a few marks on SACs throughout the year and most of them were menial mistakes (forgetting to include a single word or being too repetitive in the conclusion for my practical), so I didn't really include SAC mistakes. Although, I definitely would recommend it, especially if you think you might struggle with the same questions later on or forget your mistakes! I also didn't do textbook questions, but if you have difficulty with these, definitely put them in.

Ultimately, find the way that works best for you! I suggest being concise and not letting it get too large though.

Hi CM!

I was wondering if you found VCE Bio (especially 3/4) more interesting than biology in previous years in school. When entering year 7 (many years ago haha) I thought I would be very interested in biology, however y7-10 biology kind of turned me off it ahha.

Also, how similar is bio to chem. I am loving chem at the moment and I was wondering if this love would transfer into bio and how helpful doing the studies concurrently would be to each other :)

I'm sorry for the rather silly questions but I am considering picking up bio next year and would love your advice (congrats on the premier's award... my dream)

Thanks!

Hi Eloise,
They're not silly questions at all (and thanks for the congratulations!). I'll try my best to answer, but definitely get lots of other opinions too as you don't want to end up studying a subject you dislike.

I definitely found 3/4 more interesting than previous years simply because of the depth of the content. I think the only topics I'd vaguely covered in previous years were DNA/cell organelles. It was nice to be able to understand these topics in a little bit more depth (obviously still high school standard though) and be introduced to many new concepts too. Personally, I LOVED unit 3, especially immunology. I also enjoyed gene technologies from unit 4 but didn't really like the evolution topic.

It's a little difficult to compare yr 7-10 science to VCE science, as every school will do junior level science differently and the enjoyment factor can be more dependent on teaching style. Overall, I would say yes, the content is definitely more interesting in 3/4 (like most things are as they begin to get more complex), however, whether you will enjoy it more really comes down to personal preferences and what type of learning/content you like. Maybe ask yourself what you didn't like about biology in the earlier years, was it the teaching style? The content too easy?

In terms of similarities to 1/2 chemistry, I'd say there is very little overlap in content. However, what I do find is that the way I study for and learn chemistry is similar to biology (part of what makes them my favourite subjects). Loving chemistry does NOT directly transfer to loving biology, although the similarities in the style of class and the fact they are both sciences mean often people enjoy them side by side. What exactly do you like so much about chemistry? If you let me know I could tell you how applicable it is in biology :)

I'd recommend (if you have time) to check out some of the 3/4 content to see whether it looks interesting to you. Perhaps check out the study design or listen to 10-20 minutes of a Douchy's podcast. This is probably the best way to find out whether you will enjoy the content.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. Good luck with subject selection!

Spoiler
Really though, biology is the superior VCE subject and nothing will change this - no I'm not bias at all

Hey CM
I was wondering how your grades were in units 1/2(if you don't mind sharing them)?
Also, how did you set out your notes for each topic and any tips for setting your notes out?
Congrats on the premiers award  8)
Thank you Bsaini! In 1/2 I averaged high 90s (had to have a look back at my report  ???), however, grades for 1/2 really have little importance and are not necessarily a reflection on how well you will do in 3/4. I wouldn't worry about them too much, instead, just try to get into good study habits!

For 1/2, I just took notes off the powerpoints, as it isn't really too necessary in 1/2 to get extra resources or anything, especially since the exam is usually written by your teachers. In 3/4, I used the study design to set out handwritten notes, ticking off each dot point as I covered it in my notes. If you look back at this thread, you will see that I have included a sample in one of my previous responses, so feel free to check that out.

Hi,
Hopefully it isnt rude to ask but what kind of marks did you get to get a 50 and a prems! (CONGRATS that's so amazing btw)

Hi Sara,

First of all, I'm happy to give you my scores but be wary of worrying too much about your results or trying to predict what your end of year score will be. Just try and develop a strong understanding of the subject and do the best that you can  8)

Scores
U3 = 48/50, U4=86/90 - These were scaled to full after exams. Also, it's not really your score that matters but your ranking, so the same SAC score will correlate to different levels of ability for different schools.

Did you attend any lectures?
I attended Andrew Douch’s lecture which I found very insightful both in how to approach the exam as well as providing key points to remember. You definitely don’t have to attend lectures and I wouldn’t go if you have a lot of other subjects to focus on. But if it is your accelerated subject and/or you have some free time in the holidays, it is worth going to one or two.
Hi Chocolatemilkshake,
Did you attend any of the AN lectures run during the holidays? If so, did you find them useful and would you recommend them?

Hi Snow Leopard!
I didn't feel the need to attend any of the bio ones so I can't directly give feedback on them, but I had friends that went and found them really useful! I think that if you have the time, there's really no downside, especially since they are free. If you don't have time or live too far away from the city to travel (although they may be online again anyway  ;)) then you can use the lecture notes they upload. I used them as one resource to help create my notes and and ensure that I hadn't missed any important concepts.
Hope this helps  8)

Good thread. I agree with pretty much all of your advice sans the textbook. It is saturated with useless bs and is more or less an utter waste of time. Luckily, I had no need to isolate the relevant information as my teacher had already done that for me in his powerpoints. Once the knowledge base is there, it comes down to paying attention to technicalities in wording (eg. intact skin vs skin) and utilising key words in responses. Good luck everyone.

Thank you! Yes I agree that using the textbook is certainly not necessary to do well and definitely has a lot of useless information for biology. I think it depends on what kind of learner you are as I personally enjoyed reading the textbook for a basic overview before actually studying the content. Although as I said in my guide doing textbook questions is relatively pointless.
And yes good luck to all those sitting the bio exam this year!

✩ Answering your Questions ✩

Hi guys,
Throughout 2020 I had a number of people come to me with biology questions (which I was absolutely honoured to receive, so if you did come to me for help, thank you)! For anyone new reading this I got a Premier’s award in 2019 for biology and I really do love answering your questions; whether they concern the content or study techniques. Anyway, I’ve collated all the questions I was asked throughout the year and used the advice I gave to create a general questions document. Many of the questions are common ones and hence I figured that my answers could be of some help to future bio students out there. If you are one of those students, all the best with your studies and I hope you enjoy delving deep into this subject. I'm always happy to answer more questions - just send a PM or respond to this thread. (NOTE** I can be repetitive with my advice, especially if you've read my guide, so for best use of this post scroll down to the questions that interest you)


I did average in 1/2, do you think I can still do well in 3/4 or get high 40s?
40+ is definitely possible! Unit 1/2 marks are really only one indication of how well you can do in year 12. In fact, some people do really well in 1/2 and then not so well in the following units or vice versa. I’d say set a goal at the start of the year and work towards that throughout 2021.

I made a lot of silly errors in 1/2, can I still do well in 3/4?
Definitely. My most simple advice - do a tonne of practice questions and find the study technique that works for you! Also, consider, why did you get a lowish score on your Units 1/2? Was it a combination of small, silly errors, did you fail to properly read the question? Or did you lack a deeper understanding in some aspects? Reviewing WHY you didn’t seem to succeed will certainly help you reduce these errors in units 3/4.

I have a teacher that doesn’t suit my style (or teaches beyond the course), what should I do?
I also had a teacher which didn’t suit my style, that said, I was quite ahead of the class. I would teach myself the content and then use class as “revision” of that content.  If you do get a teacher who doesn’t suit you, I recommend working ahead of the class (if possible, it might not be if you are focusing on other subjects). That way, YOU’VE already studied the study design and the relevant information you’ll need to know for the exam, so you can distinguish between the pertinent/not pertinent information your teacher is giving (just be mindful, although they shouldn’t do this sometimes schools test parts of biology which are not directly related to the course in SACs).

How do I reduce unnecessary bits of information in my notes?
This is an easy trap to fall into so don’t worry (even my notes are too in depth and a bit too detailed). If you are the type of person who is inclined to write unnecessary notes, you MUST learn to be as concise as possible. Perhaps typing your notes would be a better option? This would allow you to delete the unnecessary stuff as you go along. Otherwise, if you do want to handwrite them, utilise the study design. Do NOT base your notes off one textbook structure instead, check the study design and then check you’ve written down only the things which are relevant to it. This will be easier for some dot points on the study design than it is for others. I enjoyed reading the Nature of Biology although I definitely wouldn’t say it is necessary for success. Given that you’re likely to write extra notes, perhaps read it after you’ve taken them? This textbook contains a lot of extra information that you will not need to know for the exam, so it’s important that you can distinguish between the two.

How do you determine what’s necessary to write down in my notes?
I wrote my notes based off the study design, taking the info or nicely phrased examples out of a variety of resources, including rewording where I could. I figured out what was most important simply by using the study design. Obviously it’s not, however, I definitely trained myself to omit unnecessary information. Before writing something down, ask yourself, will this be useful? Is this something that will come up on the exam? I’d say, examples tend to not be that important (unless directly stated on the study design), so if you are putting them in, try to be concise about it. Use sticky notes (if handwriting) where you can (eg, with questions, key info that you forgot to add before). Ultimately, you don’t want to spend too long writing notes as practice application questions are much MUCH more important to do throughout the year.

Also, I want to stress that just because you don’t write it down in your notes doesn’t mean you aren’t learning from it! I used writing notes as an active way to help my brain remember stuff (as after I finished writing my notes I didn’t do too much study on the content and just started practice questions). It was a way I could recall what I’d learnt in class with a goal-focused process (eg. I will have finished bio study once I have finished x y section of notes). This worked really well for me, however, this study technique does not work for everyone. In fact, many people do amazing in biology without writing notes, or perhaps using cue cards or other study techniques. So, don’t feel pressure to HAVE to take notes to do well. If it isn’t working for you perhaps you can find another way that will work better? In general, if writing notes isn’t helping you to remember the content (because you are not distinguishing between necessary and unnecessary information) then it’s not a good use of your time.
tl;dr; In my opinion it’s not worth writing notes unless you are learning in the process of writing notes.

How do I improve my expression in Biology?
1. Make a mistakes book (definitely do this for practice VCAA questions (once you have finished learning all the content around September), but you can also do it for other questions throughout the year and use it to revise for SACs.
2. Spend some of your time studying by going over common questions that you are likely to have to encounter and remember some KEY words that you will have to include. I'm definitely not saying you should rote memorise (please don't, biology is all about understanding) but having some key words you can pull out when answering questions is definitely helpful in preventing you from losing silly marks. For instance, a common question that was in practice exams, was in my SAC AND the exam was the steps in PCR. Prior to the exam, I ensured I had memorised the key words in each step (see below for an example)
1. Denaturation of strands (95 degrees)
2. Anneal DNA (55 degrees)
3. Extension of DNA (72 degrees)

This helped me to recall information quickly and triggered my memory for the other key points that I should have included in the question. I know you can't really do this with unique questions, but as you practice I promise you will improve and get better at understanding the key points that examiners will want you to include!

3. Look at the marking! I'm not sure if you are doing practice SAC questions or just questions in general, but later in the year when you start doing practice exams ALWAYS look at how many marks a question is worth. It will generally tell you the amount of key points to include.

How do I use my reading time?
In my exam for reading time: I read over all the short answer questions and got familiar with them and then in the last 5 minutes I answered as many of the MC as I could (around 7-10 Qs I think as the MC for my year were pretty standard).  I ended up taking about 25 minutes to complete the MC (not including reading time) and spent the rest on SA. If doing the MC in reading works for you go ahead although for me personally my short term memory is not that good and I found it better to read the whole exam and feel more comfortable with the SA questions. This is especially handy if there are a few tricky questions and you want to just think through them for a bit. I never even double checked the MC but full marked it so I think the trick here is to be super confident in this section to give yourself lots of time with SA (to be honest usually with MC you either know it or don't. Obviously there's always the chance of making a dumb error, believe me I made plenty of those in practice, so just make sure you mark the ones you are unsure of and come back to them at the end).

With multiple-choice questions, how did you generally do in trial exams compared to VCAA exams and what did you do when you found weird multiple choices in trials?
 I did the company papers first and then worked my way up to VCAA and saw linear improvement. At first I was probably losing 6-7 marks and at the end of the practice exams I did 1-2. When I found weird multiple choice Qs, I just tried my best using my knowledge of the content and when I got questions wrong I would go back and review them.

How do you go about answering multiple-choice questions? Usually, I use the elimination method but sometimes I end up with 2 answers that are very similar, how do you determine which option is 'the most correct'? Or do you have an entirely different method to answer MCs?
Yeah I used elimination method unless I was super sure of the answer (even if I was, I still crossed off the other answers to make sure). Honestly, there's no magic method that will suddenly make you good at MC, you just need to feel really confident with the content and expect to get a few wrong. Then always learn from your mistakes  Obviously, the more you practice under timed conditions, the easier they will come to you. Sometimes, it will just come down to having a bit of luck on the exam day too (eg. how well the questions suit you). Generally in biology the elimination method is rather quick but if it is taking too long you're better off just picking one and moving on.

How should I go about marking my practice exams?
1. I mostly just used the recommended VCAA responses, ensuring I had all the key things in each question. Sure they might not be the "exemplary" answers but generally if you include all the points, explain them well (and understand them) you're doing pretty good job and will get full marks.
2. When I marked my practice exams I highlighted each key expression that would get me marks. This was really helpful when I was going back over practice exams as I could really see what I was missing, or what was key in my answers. Rereading and understanding your mistakes on previous exams is vital in the last week or two before the exam.
3. Remember it's not english! As long as you are clear with your responses examiners will give you marks.
4. If you go over the lines that's okay (I did it in my exam) but generally try and aim for the amount of lines as this gives you a good guide for what you need to write.
5. Marking your own practice exams is a great way to learn (I marked all of mine) and then maybe if you are having trouble with expression for specific questions you could ask (on the forums perhaps)

Would you mind sending me an example of an answer you would write for a short answer question from a past exam? I am trying to evaluate how much detail is required above the examiner's report and how to structure them.
Okay, I just grabbed a question off one of my practice papers. I'm sure you'll find your own style eventually that suits you. Don't be too stressed about structure, it's not an english essay (thank goodness!), just get the main key ideas down. VCAA won't be expecting long, over complicated answers, in fact this makes it harder for them to mark. However, that doesn't mean putting extra detail in is a bad thing, just make sure it directly relates to the question.

2018 VCAA Exam - Question 1
Tryptase is an enzyme that is released, along with histamine and other chemicals, from human mast cells. Nucleic acids encode instructions for the synthesis of tryptase in a mast cell
Outline the steps of translation in the synthesis of tryptase (3 marks)

- mRNA carrying genetic code producing tryptase arrives at ribosome
- Two ribosomal subunits bind around mRNA creating protein-synthesising complex
- tRNA molecules carrying specific amino acids bind to codons on mRNA via complementary anticodons. Amino acids join together via condensation polymerisation.
- Polypeptide soon to be folded into tyrptase produced.


As you can see, I probably provide a little bit more detail than required, but still succinct and on paper, I have just filled the required amount of lines.

Experimental design! One of the parts of the exam that people find trickiest and I’ve had quite a few questions about it…so, how can I improve my questions in the experimental design section?
The best way to improve is practice! I'm sorry that I don't have one quick trick to fix it but exposing yourself to as many experimental design questions as you can is really the best way forward. When doing these questions I'd suggest...
1. REFER TO DATA: Always refer to the SPECIFIC data given in the question. The examiners want to know you have considered all the information they've given you and used this to come to a conclusion. So support your conclusions with evidence given from the question!
2. REVISE COMMON QUESTIONS: Maybe put together a list of "common" experimental design questions and brainstorm/note down the suggested responses you have seen before. For example, often you'll be asked for a limitation of the experiment or about errors. If you've been exposed to these questions and strong answers to these questions before, it will be much easier to come up with something specific to the experiment you've been given in the actual exam.
3. REVISE TERMS: Revise all your experimental design terminology (check the study design to see what you have to know) including all the obvious things such as dependent, independent and controlled variables, different types of errors, reproducibility, repeatability, validity, etc. Also, you can check here on the VCAA website for good definitions of these terms VCAA measurement terms
4. TIMING: Leave enough time! There tends to be an experimental design question last on the exam and if you find such questions difficult, it's likely that it will take a bit longer. Make sure you are thoroughly reading the question too (especially in reading time).
5. SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS: For these questions I'd suggest closely looking at the suggested solutions and make sure you've exposed yourself to a number of strong, full-mark responses. I feel like this can really help you form your own conclusions when looking at a foreign experiment.

My mistakes are quite repetitive and frustrating, how should I go about reducing them?
If your mistakes are repetitive and involve problems with wording I'd recommend starting to record the patterns in your mistakes and memorising key words/phrases that commonly appear within such patterns. Obviously I can't stress enough the importance of application in VCAA exam questions. However, sometimes and unfortunately it is necessary to memorise a few key phrases or key steps to answering a question so you're not losing dumb marks for not including a phrase like "genetic variation exists" or "the tertiary structure is altered," etc. Another thing: don't rush a practice exam for the sake of doing a practice exam, of course this will lead to more errors. Quality over quantity - you'll find that this will automatically help you reduce your errors.

What was your revision routine close to the exam?
For my revision routine, around 10-20 days before the exam I went through all my past practice exams and annotated the study design with all of my mistakes (although this is just one way to do it so you might find a way that suits you better). I'd recommend against doing tonnes of practice exams for the sake of it close to the exam, especially if you're at a pretty confident level (doing topic tests that you find repetitive and easy will probably just make you lose motivation). I think it's great to smash out practice exams at the start of revision but closer to the exam I'd concentration on actual revising.

So, I shouldn't be absolutely smashing out practice exams close to the exam?
The reason I suggest that you shouldn't do too many practice exams is because I don't want you to burn out (or waste time).  Doing too many might lesson the quality time you spend on actual revision and reviewing mistakes. (That said, it does work for some people, so take my advice lightly). Another thing you can do is mark down the questions you've got wrong and then in a weeks time try redoing the questions, that way you're not wasting time answering the easier questions that you know you are going to get right.

What did you do between practice exams close to the exam?
In terms of what I did in between exams (other than marking them), really I just did revision (mostly verbal revision with others as well as redoing tricky questions, going through mistakes document, etc) as that's how I learnt best. Honestly, just try to find what works for you :)

And that's that. Have an awesome 2021 and best of luck in biology!
