Hi everyone!
This session is great for anyone who is planning to take AP Biology next year and covers all the major concepts in Unit 1, Chemistry of Life (8%–11% of exam score) of the curriculum. AP Biology covers a lot of material and is ranked as one of the hardest AP courses, so getting a head start on the material will definitely help you do well in the class and on the exam. The material covered in this session is based on the AP® Biology Course and Exam Description from College Board: https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/media/pdf/ap-biology-course-and-exam-description.pdf
About the tutors:
This session will be co-hosted by Monica & Divya - we both got a 5 on the AP Biology exam and have worked together on various activities relating to biology outside of school, such as Science Olympiad. Monica is a graduating senior who will be attending MIT next year and Divya is a rising senior in Michigan. We hope you can join us for this session!
