Biology is one of the most important subjects there are. For not only does it teach us about the intricacies of life, it also [particularly] helps us understand more about the physical features of our bodies and even our minds. And what’s more…students who master the study of Biology and excel in it while in Secondary School lay just the lay foundation for future studies that will ultimately prepare them for successful careers either as Medical Doctors, Biochemists or even Biologists to mention just a few. I bet you love Biology too especially if you have read this post up to this very point. Congratulations! Please see below the some of the ways to go study it.
START BY LEARNING THE TERMINOLOGY: Biology has some very interesting terminologies just like every other field of study. Unfortunately, these terminologies contribute to some of the things that make the study of Biology so daunting; after all, which teenager would like to spend time learning and remembering very many [different] terms?! Well, if you truly love Biology and would like to become an expert in it, you have no choice than to learn these terminologies. And some of the best ways to do this is to try and study the origin of these terminologies and then identify their roots. If you want to understand what you are studying, then you need to familiarize yourself with all these terms first. In other words, take note of every single “strange” word you encounter while reading your Biology textbook and then ensure to singly study such words.
STUDY FROM THE GENERAL TO THE SPECIFIC: In order to effectively learn and understand Biology, experts recommend that students first of all learn/master the general concepts before seeking to understand specific details. A typical example is to first understand what factors identify a mammal before seeking to understand the factors that identify primates. Also, while in the labouratory, always endeavour to master the [practical] processes of a particular test before moving to the level.
MAKE THE LABOURATORY YOUR BEST PLACE: The simple truth is that nobody can successfully study Biology with constant experimentation at the lab. Putting Biology theory into practice (by using the laboratory whenever possible) will enable you to really explore your curiosity; and by so doing, learn so much more and be an expert in the field. Remember that the reason you should always visit the labouratory is to put your hypothesis to test and prove your theories. When it comes to learning, you tend to remember what you can put to test than what you merely read up from the pages of books.
In all, it’s important to study constantly. And while you study, ensure to test your knowledge by using past questions. We have so many of such past questions under the Exam Support page of Passnownow.com.
Keep on loving Biology!
