For biology SPM students, rejoice!!!

The moment you are waiting is here finally, as the topik ramalan, or rather hot
topics which you would consider as exams tips is out for SPM Biology 2010 is finally out. This tips is a follow up to
the SPM Chemistry 2010 tips published earlier. (As biology students most likely also take chemistry, it’ll be useful to
check out the SPM chemistry exams tips) As mentioned many times, exams tips and hot topics should not be the
only thing that you study, the Berry Berry Teacher hope that you all still study the traditional hard and smart way,
rather than taking the shortcut with tips. So for those who are still studying halfway, it is better that you do not view
this page after you have complete studying for this subject

Remember to pay more attention to the * symbol which signifies this year’s possible berry hot topics. (Not to be
mixed up with the symbol used for the ramalan of SPM Chemistry earlier) So do read up on endangered
ecosystem, and coordination and response (for paper 2 essay, write them out if you will), nutrition and dynamic
ecosystem (for paper 3). (Do also check out notes on Berry Notes to complement your revision materials, so make a
bookmark using your Internet browser on the notes section if you want to strike A in SPM Biology)

SPM Biology 2010 – Tips and Predictions for Papers 4551/1, 4551/2 and 4551/3

Berry Important Topics (BIT) SPM Biology 2010 is out again! Young Berries do take notes with these entire BITS and
do extra revision on these topics. This is just guidance for your revision.
