Thanks to this podcast I feel extremely prepared for the exam! All the content is great in ensuring everything I learned in class makes sense. All of the audios explain topics of biology in a clear and concise way. It is a fun way of learning biology and I recommend this to anyone interested in learning topics in general.
This is a great way to review for the AP test! The content is presented in a way that is fun and easy to understand. It helped me to stress a little less about the test and feel more prepared. It’s true - its not about memorization, its about understanding. Even if you’re not planning on taking the AP test, its a great review for the regular tests as well.
