Homework assignments are good practice for your knowledge of the topics. Be sure to also correct them and learn from mistakes!
Practice is paramount! Test yourself using: practice questions, practice tests, flashcards, lessonup, Digital Book, AI, helpful sites with practice material
Make use of the Biology-AI, They can help you: practice, understand, explain, make practice material.
Make use of the AI-practice test maker, give it a text and it will ask you questions about it to test your knowledge
You can find links to all of these in the 'studiewijzer' on magister
