Hey, I am doing bio next year and I am reading ahead. Do you recommend that i do checkpoints throughout the holidays whilst I learn material or should I save the checkpoints for next year?
Whatever you learn now (before you start school next year)
make sure you learn it really well. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH.
There's really now point racing through it, and then having to relearn it later on. It's a waste of your time.
As for checkpoints. Do them if you feel like it. Definitely not essential though.
The advantage of doing questions is that it helps you in answering questions succintly, with the right wording. Examiners are very pedantic about this, so starting early will definitely help in that regards.
Although I find doing questions 2 weeks before a SAC more than enough time.
You really don't need to go overboard. Just make sure you keep up with class, and you will be fine.
