I got a 5 on the AP bio test and my school is giving me 6 credits (2 courses) in the introductory biology courses.
I am majoring in chemistry, so I could not take any additional biology courses at all. The problem is that I do not feel that I learned much in my AP course.
I do not want to take courses which I already have credit for, but I need to do well on the MCAT. Should I learn biology by taking upper level courses as electives, or should I just learn the material through independent study?
Does anyone else have this type of problem? The AP test which I took required very little biology knowledge. My essay question was "describe the difference between exponential and linear growth" and a multiple choice question was "is this graph increasing or decreasing". So everyone that could read and knew algebra got 5's.
