My son AP’d out of both Bio classes, so I can’t ask him.
A premed student can’t fit Bio II into her schedule before taking the MCAT. She doesn’t want to do a gap year. What concepts in Bio II would be on the MCAT. I’m thinking that Bio II is much about plants, but maybe I’m wrong.
If there are only a few concepts in Bio II that might be on the MCAT, what would they be? She probably could self-study, if needed.
TIA
Is a syllabus available? I’m not sure that there is a standard “Bio II” that is taught the same way everywhere. Are you referring to the second semester of a year-long intro course, or is it a second year course?
It depends on the school. Content can differ from place to place. YMMV.
At D2’s college; bio 2 covers:
At D1’s undergrad, bio 2 covers:
NOTE: This class^^ has a pre-req of 2 semesters of gen chem.
Plants are only a small portion of the material covered in both classes.
