I took a AP Biology course on khan academy and when I took a practice test for the opening of the USABO and i seemed it was difficult. Could you please suggest any advice?

Hi Varish,

Campbell Biology, which the AP biology curriculum is based on, makes up only 20% of the open exam. So, Campbell is NOT enough to pass the cutoff. Here is a full list of books I recommend: https://biolympiads.com/book-list-2/

Best wishes,
Martyna

Is there any Biolympiads course to cover those other books?

Best regards,
Lin

Hi Lin and all,

Yes, in our Advanced USABO camp at https://biolympiads.com/biolympiads-training-camps/ we cover all major fancy biology textbooks like Raven's, Albert's, Lehningher, Vander's and others. The next batch start this month on July 26
