Personally, I like the Barron’s book better for SAT II Bio. I feel like it is more comprehensive information wise and it helps you over prepare a little (which can never hurt). Stick to one book or else you’ll get confused. Also, take a biology class if possible.

I think a good idea to start out with is just reading barron’s and taking basic minimalist notes. There are some sections about classification/specific families and phylums (I forgot which one it is, lol) that are kinda unnecessary. Try for 1-2 chapters a week. Aim to finish all the information review chapters a week or two before May SAT. After that, you have ~1 month period to focus on bio. Take a practice test each week and review the chapters for things that you got wrong. The week before the test, DON’T take a test, just skim over the book everyday.

I took the SAT II Biology as a freshman and thought it was pretty easy. Just study a bit every week and you should be fine

Good Luck!
