Bio 2F03 midterm
Anyone have study tips for the Bio 2F03 midterm?

The chapter on biomes and all the characteristics of the different water bodies is killing me :'(

Does anyone know how much detail I should know - like what types of plants are in each (really specific), or would a more general approach be better (main parts of climate, soil, etc.)

There's so many chapters, and 25 pages on just biomes and another 25 pages on just stuff about different water bodies is too much to handle, all of the other chapters are okay.

Thanks. I'm just so paranoid, there's so many little details in random chapters that just don't stick in my head, all I can do is hope that I recognize something I read, the other chapters I've read and they seem straightforward, but there's the odd chapter here and there that has just too many details and it feels like it hasn't even stuck with me no matter how many times I try to read it.

There definitely won't be those tiny details! Focus on the bigger picture and there may be a few details, but take a step back and see if that detail really has any significance, and if it doesn't, it likely won't be on. Also focus on the concepts he spent a lot of time on in lecture, there will probably be more questions on those.
