Here's some information regarding the content you'll be tested on for the EOC.
We have some classification/ animal system information to finish this week and then we will begin reviewing for the EOC.
Weight Distributions for Biology:
Unifying Concept Biology
Structure and Function of Living Organisms 18–22% (we are doing this now!)
Ecosystems 18–22%
Evolution and Genetics 43–53% (we are reviewing this as we do our current material)
Molecular Biology 15–19%
Total 100%
KEEP IN MIND THAT ALL OF THIS MATERIAL IS INTERTWINED AND CANNOT REALLY BE SEPARATED FROM EACH OTHER!
Cognitive Rigor and Item Complexity
• Assessment items will be designed, developed, and classified to ensure that the cognitive
rigor of the operational test forms align to the cognitive complexity and demands of the
North Carolina Essential Standards for Science.
These items will require students to not
only recall information, but also apply concepts and skills and make decisions.
MEMORIZATION WILL ONLY GET YOU A FRACTION OF THE WAY TO YOUR GOAL.
Feel free to visit this site to help you review:
click on the zebra once you get there then look for the multiple choice tab to the right and click on it to get a menu of items to review on. You can also review each topic by clicking on the picture.
We don't cover all of the topics that NY does, so only review what applies to you.
