<p>I am currently a junior, and intend to take the biology E/M exam either during May or the summer. I am aiming for 800 since Harvard/MIT are my top choices, so here is my question:
1.“will the high school biology book , by Levine and Miller, respectively, be enough to achieve such score?” Here’s the link, so you’ll get the idea which book I am referring to… [Biology:</a> Student ed. - Free Shipping](<a href=“http://www.bookworm.com/p/biology-student-ed-688959?site=CA&utm_source=Google&utm_medium=cpc_bw&utm_term=FPS-115688&utm_campaign=GoogleAW&CAWELAID=1611550254&utm_content=pla&adtype=pla&cagpspn=pla]Biology:”>http://www.bookworm.com/p/biology-student-ed-688959?site=CA&utm_source=Google&utm_medium=cpc_bw&utm_term=FPS-115688&utm_campaign=GoogleAW&CAWELAID=1611550254&utm_content=pla&adtype=pla&cagpspn=pla) </p>

<p>IDK about number one, but I just looked through the Barron’s prep book and took the test near the end of my AP Bio course.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot, HamiltonFan! But I am concerned much more on question 1, since it’s all I have for now</p>

<p>I also took the Bio M after taking AP Bio and I got an 800. The subject material slightly differs from the ap material when I took the course so I asked my teacher for some extra help because he is genius, and I also used the kaplan book which was way harder than the actual test (I was scoring 600-650 on those). As for taking M or E, take whatever one you feel more comfortable with (don’t choose based on curve), but if you feel equally balanced I suggest scanning the questions out of both sections (if time allows) and choose the one you think is easier. I hope this helps!</p>
