Re: Fossils B/C
Mostly I look it up; it's worked fine for me even in very long tests. I tend to memorize while making the binder rather than outside of it.coprolite_dipstick wrote:It's kind of hard to do the event otherwise... unless you have a partner that memorizes everythingUnome wrote:Looks like I'm the only one not memorizing stuff.coprolite_dipstick wrote:

Re: Fossils B/C
I'm working on Dinos right now. I've been finding a lot of stuff about groups not explicitly mentioned on the list, such as theropods and sauropods. Since these groups are not mentioned on the official list, are they still something that I would need to put in my notes?
If so, what are some other groups like these (for dinos)?

Re: Fossils B/C
Technically it's not on the list, so you don't have to know it, but it's generally good to know some information about them just in case they ask. I've had experiences on both the state and regional tests where they asked questions about organisms that weren't explicitly mentioned on the official rules sheet. Honestly, it's good to have a general knowledge about everything — I'd recommend sticking some notes in the back of your binder just in case.SOnerd wrote:I'm working on Dinos right now.

Re: Fossils B/C
I was mostly referring to my Regional and State tests, which both involved a station or two about early humans, even though Species Neanderthalensis is the only one on the official fossils list. I personally haven't seen a whole lot of tests asking about ferns and stromatolites, but Phylum Pteridophyta is on the list, and I believe stromatolites is listed under 'Other'. I could see where you're coming from, though; I've gotten quite a few questions about gymnosperms and angiosperms on some of the practice tests I took before State.UTF-8 U+6211 U+662F wrote: A bunch of tests ask about ferns and stromatolites (not explicitly mentioned).
