Struggling in intro level college Biology courses?

Answer 1

Hello, thank you for taking the time to post your question!

There are lots of resources available if you find yourself struggling in your intro level college biology course. Typically your textbook or course portal will come with access to online resources like practice quizzes, animations, and videos. Your professor might also provide study guides, practice exams, or other materials that could help you prepare for tests. And then a tutor can be helpful, so that could mean someone on Wyzant or you could check to see if you have access to an on-campus tutoring center.

Hopefully that gets you moving in the right direction! Feel free to reach out with a message if you have any questions beyond that! :)

Hi!

If you are struggling with your intro level Bio classes, there are tons of resources that can help. Depending on what you are studying, I love the channel the Amoeba sisters as it explains the basics concepts of cellular biology in a digestible way. Biology is also a subject which requires a lot of memorization, so creating a quizlets of terms, or making practice tests for yourself can really help with active recall. However if there are any concepts that despite watching videos you still don't quite understand, talking to your professor or finding a tutor either at your school or online might be able to break things down in a digestible way.

I can help! I felt frustrated as an aspiring Biology major when my freshman year college courses were not clicking. College science courses, especially those required for the pre-med track, are designed to weed out students and have a learning curve. I learned that seeking help during these times is a strength, not a weakness. I fell in love with college Biology and graduated Magna Cum Laude from Wake Forest University with a B.S. in Biology this past May. I want to help you achieve your goals and get Biology to click!
