BIOLOGY STUDENTS

LOOK: 

BIONINJA. It’s as cool as it sounds. BioNinja is a compilation of biology resources (specifically for IB) including outlines, videos, and powerpoints. Awesome. My favorite part, however, are the quick reference sheets! They are perfect for reviewing. 

To get to the reference sheets, click “Additional Resources” (as seen above) 

And then click the “Biology Quick Reference Guides” (or click here) 

and it will open a complete list of EVERYTHING YOU WILL NEED TO KNOW FOR THE BIOLOGY TEST. (HL and SL!) How cool is this????? 

Each topic is linked to a one page reference sheet! 

I’M OFFICIALLY OBSESSED WITH THESE. I’m currently rewriting them all to study for next year! If you don’t want to rewrite them, it would also be awesome to have them printed out in your binder or folder to study from!

Made my desk study-ready!

I decided to do one of the “what’s in my school bag?” things.

Firstly, I’d just like to express my thanks to my faithful bag- I lug its huge soul everywhere and it has not once complained of showed any signs of stress. It’s somewhat like a Mary Poppins bag. Thank you, beloved bag.

I’ve got my Kikki K planner, which is an absolute lifesaver. I love it to bits. The A4 notebook which I use for random scribbles and things that don’t belong in my subject books. Then my textbook, which I’m always having to stop myself from highlighting in- I’ll be able to sell it one day I’m sure. My two subject books, these are awesome. I picked them (and about 5 others… oops) up from Kmart for $3! My beautiful pencil case which I get complimented on everywhere- it’s actually a makeup bag from Napoleon! It’s so lovely though. And my laptop, wallet, lip balm, and a collection of different medicines which I’m forever forgetting to take with me- perks of having a chronic illness that gives me zombie brain 🙈

Some motivation with beautiful pictures.

As you all know the secret to all memorization is revision. Revising can’t always be done the night before unfortunately, but has to be scheduled. Sometimes I find scheduling my studies quite hard, especially during stressful times. Her are some resources that can help you with scheduling your studies.
