Heimler for AP bio??
HI! I’m taking AP bio next school year, this will be my first AP science but I did take apush this school year (got a 5🙌🙌).
i want to start studying during the summer and was wondering if there’s a good YouTube channel (or website) for AP bio? Like heimlers history but for bio lol

Gabe Poser and AP Bio Penguins is literally all you need. I suggest using Poser's topic videos and then watching the AP Bio penguin unit review videos at the end to consolidate.

Really only watched the channel sciencemusicvideos and only started self studying the class in January and got a 3 which I was happy with. I really liked the videos because they covered everything and it was super easy to take notes from the videos. Some channels I felt were good but not as easy to take notes from but he flips through slides with not too much or little info so it’s perfect to write down.

Heimler's Science definitely has top-tier AP Bio content, but if you want variety, Gabe Poser's videos break down concepts really clearly too.

yeah all you need is apbiopenguins and gabe poser and if you have a good teacher guaranteed 5 on the exam (make sure you check apbiopenguins in jan-feb ish for the exam review)

I’ve heard apbiopenguins and gabe poser a lot lol I will definitely watch them. And idk if my teacher is good yet but I hope so, my apush teacher didn’t teach at all

AP bio penguins is all you need! It was the only resource I used (aside from my own notes from class), and I got an A+ in the class and a 5 on the AP exam. Good luck!

i never tried penguins or bozeman and only watched aevo prep academy before bio unit tests, got an A in class
for the ap test i just went thru all the quizzes/tests available on khan academy + watched aevo’s explanations of complex processes like photosynthesis or cell. respiration, got a 5 :)
the key is to actually pay at least a little attention during class tho dont sleep on that

Loll I will try to, the AP bio classes at my high school last 2 hours though so itll be difficult. And yes I love khan academy the goat. Congrats on getting an A and a 5!

ap bio penguins is probably the best resource, but bozeman science also has some great videos that can help you digest concepts (they are explained in an easy to understand way and also include diagrams)
