The AP Biology course is designed to offer students a solid foundation in introductory college-level biology. The course is structured around four main ideas: evolution, energetics, information storage and transfer, and system interactions. In this course, you will develop an appreciation for the study of life and you will be able to identify and understand the unifying principles within a diversified biological world. “At the end of the course, you will have an awareness of the integration of other sciences in the study of biology, understand how the species to which we belong is similar to, yet different from, other species, and be knowledgeable and responsible citizens in understanding biological issues that could potentially impact their lives.” (College Board).
