[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid’s school (LAC) no longer allows kids to skip into bio 2. Said they had way too many kids starting right away with bio 2 after AP Bio and rarely did those kids have the proper foundation in biology to succeed in a second semester course. (May be the case in other departments too but I’m most familiar with the bio department policies because DD is a biology major...) But, even tho she didn’t technically get credit she said she was glad she took AP Bio in high school anyway because she was at least familiar with most of the concepts covered. So I guess what she got from AP Bio was enough that it allowed her to feel a lot more comfortable in a college science course but not enough that it could serve as a replacement. [/quote] There is a lot of chem in college bio 1 from what I hear. I've seen a university with the prerequisite of Gen Chem 1 for Bio 1. I think the chem part takes some students by surprise.[/quote]
