<p>So, I'm a junior right now and senior year I plan to take AP bio(the only AP Science seniors can take in my school). I'm curious about the opinons about AP Bio from people that are taking it.</p>
<p>easy and loved it! its mostly memorization but of all the APs i’ve taken it was by far the most interesting.</p>
<p>It’s really fun and interesting :)</p>
<p>I am not by any means a science-math person, but AP Biology made me fall in love with the subject! I have posted this in other threads, but will reiterate it here: AP Bio is not the most difficult subject to understand, but it certainly encompasses one of the highest volumes of information of all the APs. It is definitely worthwhile, though, and a really fantastic course if you have a qualified teacher and a great class dynamic like I did!</p>
<p>I find biology fascinating. I’m not particularly good at science and memorizing isn’t my strong point, but it doesn’t matter. I may not ace the quizzes, but I totally GET the bigger picture. I’m no natural, but I still find the class incredibly rewarding. I prefer the evolution and ecology aspects. I’d love to take some earth science courses and biology got me to take Environmental Science, which was also intriguing.</p>
<p>Biology is amazing.</p>
<p>hard but rewarding</p>
<p>When I took AP US History last year, I hated doing the work and studying for tests. With AP Biology this year, I am interested in what I am learning, making it so much easier to work on it! I have also taken AP Literature and AP Calculus, but Biology is my favorite.</p>
<p>Need to memorize a lot of stuff but still interesting</p>
<p>I honestly hate the class. I cannot read even a paragraph from the book without completely going blank. It just feels like mindless memorization complemented by some fleetingly interesting but ultimately boringly obvious concepts. I like classes in which I feel as though I am thinking.</p>
<p>AP Biology is one of my favorite classes that I have taken in high school. I highly recommend it, but it can be a lot of work at times (mostly due to lots of rote memorization).</p>
<p>what would be more fun/ look better? AP bio or a Syracuse Honors forensics class that my school offers.</p>
<p>I’d love it more if I had a competent teacher 
But overall, it’s a great fun class. I love the labs.</p>
<p>I am a parent of a soph son, who took bio in 9th and is taking Chem now. He does not like math/eng but likes history. He says he wants to be a teacher. </p>
<p>He has take AP human Geo this year in 10th and is wondering about next year…he will take APUSH, although the teacher at our school has a bad rep. He wants to do one more AP and since he still talks about some bio related stuff every now and then I feel that he should take AP Bio next year, the only issue is that it is 2 blocks so it will take up 2 slots (out of 7).</p>
<p>His counselor suggested AP Psych but I think it might look too weak esp after AP Human this year. He will take Pre-Calc and Physics since he is not too much into Math (it is very teacher dependent for him). </p>
<p>I have a senior son who is a total Math/Physics person but hates History…hence my newness at this.</p>
<p>It’s a cool subject, but I definitely prefer chem/physics to bio.</p>
<p>I meant to ask those of you who have taken AP Bio, AP Physics what would you recommend?</p>
<p>Im taking AP bio now as a junior and its a great class and the materials very interesting. The only problem is that there is a lot of information to memorize and study that it might at times be overwhelming.</p>
