Stare at notes, weep. Stare at past paper, weep. Repeat.

What are you guys doing tonight?

I have a bit of human story to go, then I have to go over lots of sfbh.

I'm fine for the first two topics, just a few here and there.

I was hoping that studying for prior assessments that I would know everything.
Lol at memory. Wanted to ask, do you guys know if we have to know the life cycle of any microorganism or disease causing agent or did they take that off the syllabus?

I don't think so, I kind of know the cycle of the anopheles mosquito for malaria...doubt they'll ask about that.

Completely screwed. Don't think anyone else is as unprepared as I am.
Done: mab, half of bol, half of sfbh
Not done: half of bol, half of sfbh, option

Believe me you aren't the only one.
It's possible to do it all you just have to quickly go through it 2 times over and focus on the stuff you don't know.
Allocate and hour and a half to both bol and sfbh and then 2 hours for option
review weak points and wake up early tomorrow and run through your weak points again. You'll be fine!

I'm going through the option now. I think I was asleep when we did this. Seriously. Everything seems so foreign.

Looking through past cssa trials, don't even know what half the questions are asking. :confused2: I just hope I have enough basic knowledge to bs half the exam

Whenever I say I'll stay up late, I end sleeping before 10... Idc, definitely staying up no matter what. I need 90+, but considering how unprepared I am, I'll be alright with 80+. Hopefully my previous assessments will act as a buffer and reduce the damage trials are going to cause.

Chromosome tables...?

For pedigree charts, know:
- how to figure out whether a trait is recessive/dominant
- how to figure out the genotype/phentyope of certain individuals
- how can they be used (genetic counselling)
- advantages

That's all I can think of now.
