they have some pretty good reading on this at the bio website. they have a (rather long) PDF document where you are guided by a fruit fly called buzzy who tells you to relax. I thought it was cute. it is here, as the first link:
[Cornell Biology :: Advice for First-Year Students](http://www.bio.cornell.edu/advising/adv_frosh.html)
the rest of that page should be a big help for any people who haven’t checked it out yet.

I got a 5 on AP bio junior year, and I have very good retention of the material, but I’m pretty sure I’m going to take the standard biology lecture next year. no offense to my excellent teacher, but I want to learn it at Cornell.
I was planning on using the calc AP for credit, but I am not dead-set on it. I’ll wait and see about that one with advising. my school only offered me the Calculus AB exam and to be honest I have little concept of the difference between AB and BC and how they match up with college courses.
