Dr Dan’s Advanced Biol Sem. 1

Dr Dan's Advanced Biol Sem. 1

Dr. Dan’s ADVANCED BIOLOGY course SEMESTER 1 (Class ONLY) is a perfect introduction to the miraculous science of life from a Biblical Worldview and offers one high school credit. God’s fingerprints are all over every cell, tissue, organ and system of the body.Truly the human body is the masterpiece of God’s creation.

Both courses of Advanced Biology (Semester 1 and 2) are self-paced, comprehensive, and combined, total 32 weeks of instruction. They are the perfect introduction to the miraculous science of anatomy and physiology. In each Science course, Dr. Daniel Korow DVM presents the key concepts and ideas that makes Advanced Biology come alive! He draws from many sources creating a total package that integrates General Science, Physical Science, Biology, Chemistry, Anatomy and Physiology, as well as his experiences as a veterinarian.

In addition, Dr. Dan’s Advanced Biology will help your student : “Learn how to learn” and remember those facts and names that seem to be overwhelming. This course is designed to make Science understandable. Memorization may work on the short term to get that “A” on an exam, but understanding and mastery of the material will last a lifetime!

Did you know?

Many of our local home schoolers using the Exploring Creation with Advanced Biology, 2^nd Edition also complete the “On Your Own” questions in the text book as well as the Apologia’s self-tests in the Advanced Biology Test & Solutions book. Those homeschoolers are well prepared for later exams, testing and real-time use of their Advanced Biology knowledge!

When both semesters are taken, they offer one high school credit.
