Bonus Test

We will have a test based on topics that we covered in Bio30S (in Grade 10) that we will not be covering again in class in AP Bio. This test will consist only of multiple choice questions. If your mark on this test is higher than your lowest test mark this year, then this mark will replace that test mark.

Here are the textbook sections that the test will be based on:

Chapter 20 Sections 1-8, 10, 12-15
Chapter 21 Sections 2-6, 8-13
Chapter 22 Sections 1-12
Chapter 23 Sections 1-15
Chapter 24 Sections 1-4, 6, 8-9, 17

The test will be on Friday, March 14th, 2014 (Day 6).
