Question bch4024 study advice?

looking for advice ab handling the sheer amt of content in biochem. i JUST switched to anki for this class and have been trying to stay on top of making flashcards everyday from lectures and signed up for an SI session.

i’m worried ab adjusting to one study method and having to change it for the different exams (since they’re w diff profs), and possibly spending too much time making study materials.

has anyone found a method successful across all 4 exams/3 lecturing profs from prev sems?

Brute memorization from the slides. All slide material is fair game. Practice exams are super helpful & make study/review sheets for each exam. It will be helpful later in the future if you plan on taking the mcat. Read over the slides before lecture and review them again later in the day after lecture. Helps prime and encode your brain with the information.

Yup. Just make sure you understand the concepts first before you brute memorize the slides. Learned that the hard way with this class.
