About

Hi! Our names are Ariel (pre-med student) and Saffron (high school student). We’ve taken AP Biology and know how challenging (but fun!) this class can be. We're excited to help you feel confident with the content and exam strategies this summer. :)
﻿
Join this summer series where we’ll go through each AP Bio unit, one week at a time! During each session, we’ll break down key concepts, go over MCQs (multiple choice questions) and FRQs (free response questions), and build the skills you’ll need to succeed in your AP class and on the exam. We’ll also share tips for first-time AP students, answer questions, and help you stay on track!
