<p>Have you taken any biology classes at school? AP Biology or anything.</p>

<p>I strongly suggest you read the Campbell Biology textbook and know the material in it WELL. Not just general concepts, but also details. (I never took the USABO but I know several people who made it to semifinals and a finalist who made it the camp.) How long you need to study depends on you. But it surely wouldn’t hurt to start early.</p>
