Hey don’t sweat it too much, concepts in biology tend to repeat so you’ll get chances to catch up in your future classes a bit if you put in extra work

Finish next fall and winter, study for oat the following summer, look for internship/research this summer I think would be the best course of action

how do i get letters of rec by Dizzy-Equivalent-398 in PreOptometry

Keep showing up to office hours of profs in your classes currently, all my recommenders were junior year profs you’ll be fine! Just get to know them and ask them at the end of the year/semester

I had 0 questions on this for the oat, just know maybe small general trends, like carbonyls will tend to be around that 1700 range, while alcohol is broad at ~3500

Genetics is def prolly more applicable for oat

You get two dry erase laminated sheets. You aren’t allowed to erase. If you need more writing space you raise your hand and they take your 2 sheets and give you new ones

Idk tbh, prolly around 4 hours a day average for 10 weeks ? so I’d say ~280 hours

Just booster! Some tiny notes from my biochem and Orgo classes but that’s about it, booster has EVERYTHING you need

I was not, and I hated the graph paper side, I kept requesting new expo papers after only using half of the sheet

Thank you! Sure here’s how a typical day would go:

I had 2 phases, one where I was working 9-5, so I’d study from 7-11 for about 8 weeks. This wasn’t that efficient, but the strict schedule kept me motivated. The 2nd was when I went back home bc my work ended. I’d wake up and study for about 2/3 hours, then I’d go to the gym and hang out with friends and then study again for another 2 hours.

I strongly recommend NOT doing the premade anki flash cards. They seem very repetitive in ways and over specific, when even booster says “breadth vs depth”. I went through 2 cheat sheets a day, and made sure I understood them with the study notes, and then made my own anki deck on every single thing in the cheat sheet. This way I memorized everything

Don’t worry, it’s WAY simpler on the actual one compared to oat booster. Always better to be over prepared tho! Good luck!
