About

Yes, there is another session that I am hosting also called AP Biology Crash Course. Think of this as a late edition one. This is a faster paced version compared to my other session, since it is starting late, so each session will be held twice a week.
Each week we'll go over one to two units in AP Biology. The goal is to review/learn AP Biology before the next school year, this is to either aid with self studying or just to study ahead.

We will cover all the units in AP Biology and will usually cover two topics per session, but not always. Due to this, some sessions may be slightly longer than others. Please let me know if you are missing a session so that I can send the slides over.

We can go over College Board expectations and will probably do FRQs as well.

Hi! I'm a high school student enrolled in a public highschool in Illinois. I love to play and listen to music and am always looking for good book recommendations. I am here to help with math and science, especially biology! I love chess and science and math are two of my favorite subjects.

Schedule

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

This is just a little crash course for AP Biology for those who want to review or are self studying and want to know the main principles. I would advise you not to miss because we will cover a lot each session, but there won't be any strict policy or guidelines stuck in place regarding attendance.
