I'm thinking that I want to take Biology M because I would like to go into the medical field (obviously molecular biology has more to do with medicine than that ecology crap). Anyway, how detailed is the Biology M test? Does it expect you to know things on the caliber of the molecular formula of ATP and that myosin and actin make up the fibrils in striated muscle, or only basic concepts, such as ATP is produced through the Krebs Cycle?

Any help would be appreciated! I'm memorizing (and when I say memorizing, I mean that literally) all of the ridiculously small details in the Barron's Biology E/M review, and I don't want to clutter up my mind with unimportant, trivial details if that's not even going to be on the test.

Thanks so much!

On mine, only basic concepts were tested. There weren't any questions on molecular formula, but if there were, they were basic, not on exact molecular formulas of particular molecules.

Try Princeton Review to get a good feel for what's on the test. The practice tests are pretty similar to the actual test. Also, you can go on the College Board website to see the basic overview of the test and what categories of questions will be asked.

Good luck!
