Timberdoodle's Review

Thinkwell's AP Biology

Thinkwell's Honors Biology is adapted from a two-semester college-level biology course. Because of that rigor, it is designated as an honors course for high school. Emmy Award-winning teacher George Wolfe teaches Thinkwell's AP Biology. His passion for teaching biology is evident from the first video; he makes learning fun and effective for any student. And with the best AP Biology teacher breaking down the fundamentals and advanced concepts of AP Biology, the AP Biology exam will be a snap!


AP Biology includes:

• More than 380 video lessons

• 1000+ interactive AP Bio problems with immediate feedback allow you to track your progress.

• AP Biology practice tests and chapter tests for all fourteen chapters, as well as midterm and final exams to make sure you're ready for the AP Biology exam

• Diagnostic tests that tell you precisely what you need to study

• Printable illustrated notes for each topic

• Closed captioning for all videos

• Glossary of more than 1600 biology terms


About Thinkwell Advanced Placement Courses 

Advanced Placement (AP) classes are not for every student. But if you have a college-bound child, consider this: About one-third of all students entering college have taken at least one AP exam. And nearly ten percent were able to enter college as sophomores. 


With today's staggering tuition costs, that alone is hugely significant. Even if your child takes only one AP exam for a course required by his major, he will save the excessive tuition and book costs for that course. By accomplishing this while at home, he will also save the corresponding room and board costs.


Other Benefits Include:

• Reduced course load, allowing your child to take fewer classes while in college, and giving him more time to dedicate to particularly troublesome courses.

• Completion of AP exams signals to admission officers your child's preparedness for college.

• More flexibility in your child's college classes so he can pick up an elective or two that would be prohibitive under other circumstances.


Thinkwell AP Courses Help Students Prepare

An AP course is not required to take an AP exam. But we think you will find that Thinkwell Advanced Placement courses can help your child acquire the skills and habits he will need to succeed in the exam. Thinkwell AP courses explain, illustrate, and demonstrate online with engaging multimedia video lectures. Simply watch a ten-minute video, then practice the exercises; it is that easy.


What You Need to Succeed on AP Exams

Thinkwell AP courses are complete packages with lessons and automatically-graded exercises that provide immediate feedback. This allows your child to quickly determine which areas he'll need to spend extra time studying. Diagnostic tests tell him precisely what he'll need to study. All courses are online, so your child can view them anywhere. The concise, illustrated review notes further help your child distill the ideas and concepts he'll need to grasp to succeed on AP exams.


The Edge Your College-Bound Student Is Looking For

Thinkwell AP courses are subscription-based, but subscriptions don't start until you are ready. You can buy now and wait up to one year to activate your subscription. Your child will have access to the course for twelve months. However, you can purchase extra time in one-month, three-month, and six-month increments if needed. Used at over 450 colleges and universities, with lectures by award-winning teachers, Thinkwell AP courses will give your college-bound child the edge he is looking for.


Instead of purchasing a physical product, with Thinkwell, you buy an online subscription that gives you online access to the program for a set amount of time.


Then you:

1. Watch a five- to ten-minute online video lesson featuring award-winning teachers.

2. Do the automatically-graded exercises for the topic. You'll get instant correct-answer feedback.

3. Move on to the next lesson!


It really is as simple as that! How do we keep homeschooling easy for students and parents?


  • Thinkwell online videos work with any learning style, so any student can succeed.
  • Automatically graded exercises mean parents can monitor their student's progress at their convenience.
  • Complete glossaries, full-color printable notes, and most courses even include automatically graded practice and chapter tests, as well as mid-terms and finals.
