Hi Maddie,
The best way to study for Biology, especially if you're planning to become a PA, is to focus on active learning instead of just passively reading. Use strategies like making your own charts and diagrams, teaching concepts out loud, doing lots of practice questions, and breaking topics into smaller pieces to review daily. Focus heavily on understanding processes (like how systems work together) instead of just memorizing facts. Study a little every day instead of cramming, and prioritize the topics that show up most on exams, like cell biology, anatomy, and physiology. Also, use tools like flashcards (Quizlet or Anki) for vocab-heavy topics. Active, repeated practice is key for mastering biology and doing well for PA school prerequisites!
