finished General Biology today!

Published

haha I am so happy! I got an A

The instructor told us that the students who finished this class with above B will be okay in AP classes. Is that true? some people say General Biology is harder than AP (I don't know, that's what they said)

Anyway, this class was freaking hard!! only 8 students survived! out of 24 :trout:

OOH!!! that is the same class I have to take soon!!! do you have any tips or advice for passing General Biology? :idea::idea:

Wow i guess general biology is different then high school biology?

Specializes in LTC, Med-surg.

I've heard A&P is harder but that much just depend on the person. Anyway, congratulations on getting an A in General Bio! I got an A this semester when I took it at my college in the fall :]

Specializes in School Nursing.

General Biology 1 was freaking HARD for me. I studied non-stop and still only pulled a C+. It was definitely harder than high school bio (from what I remember, that was looong time ago). It's a survey course so it covers a lot of different things in a short amount of time. Chem, genetics, cells, photosynthesis, cellular respiration, mitosis/meiosis, DNA, RNA, and on and on. It's definitely hard when it's your first college science class. I found Bio 2 to be much easier and a lot more fun.

A&P wasn't nearly as difficult for me as bio 1 was.. but that might be because I took the general bios first. I also took Geology, a completely unrelated science but a science non-the-less and that helps get used to science based exams.

If you made an A in general bio, you're golden for A&P, imho.

Oh wow ! :) I posted this in 2007, and guys.. I guess the teacher was right.. I took A&P 1 and 2..

Now I have only one semester left to finish my nursing program !!!

I got my LPN last summer, and graduating with RN degree in this May..

Good luck with everyone who just started!
