[[Fast-Paced High School Biology]] is a Science course in the CTY program with no prerequisites.  It is intended as a means to get a head start on freshman biology, or to skip to AP Biology.  Its course code is BIOL, and it is offered at all 5 CTY sites in the continental US: [[Baltimore]], [[Carlisle]], [[Lancaster]], [[Los Angeles]], and [[Saratoga Springs]].

This course covers material ordinarily included in a year-long introductory course in high school biology, typically a prerequisite for AP® or IB Biology. You’ll begin with the smallest unit, the atom, and build toward the final discussions of ecology and the environment. Along the way, you and your classmates will sample biochemistry, genetics and cellular processes, and integrate these concepts into your studies of evolution and systems of living things, such as respiration and reproduction. Through readings, lectures, and lab work, including dissections, you’ll finish the course with a strong foundation in biological concepts. Lab time constitutes at least 20 hours of the course. This course is intended for students who have completed grade 8 or above. If you have just completed grade 7, you are urged to take CTY’s Introduction to the Biomedical Sciences before taking this course.

CTY Biology covers the equivalent of a high school Biology course, and, as with other CTY courses, also covers more (the Kreb Cycle, for instance, is not a part of most intro Biology courses). The course delves into some topics included in AP Bio, and even contains really cool dissections like fetal pigs, sheep brains, or sharks.

LOS.10.2 will always remember "anus" and the breaks where many things were always thrown into the fountain, and we always had to go in and get them. We will also remember Minky's obnoxious antics. Our family will also not be forgotten, for Chubby Asian Baby (Klaus) was the son of two proud parents (Vivian and Sam). There was a constant reminder that evils were among us as Minky the evil godmother would choke mainly one of the household relatives... (Klaus). Their dog hit three girls in the face. Those were dark times, but there were also good times. When CAB was not being choked or when the parents wouldn't mentally abuse CAB, or during breaks when we would play monkey in the middle with another dog......

We were a very close-knit class, playing 8-square at break (Aakarsh was our King) and talking about random stuff. Many jokes were generated during this period, from photosynthetic jesus, the holy duck, and exploding teddy grahams to "I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE!" We learned alot about ourselves during those 3 weeks and we really came together. We cried together when we sang Kelly's Bio Version of Just the Way You Are, we dougied, we laughed, we sang, we dreamed and we enjoyed Asian Hot Sauce. And we'll always remember:

this year was quite possibly the most hilarious class of all time. Brian the TA and Jess our instructor were incredible. They were funny and nice and made us all very happy haha. The class was fun.

Course Description

This course covers material ordinarily included in a year-long introductory course in high school biology, typically a prerequisite for AP® or IB Biology. You’ll begin with the smallest unit, the atom, and build toward the final discussions of ecology and the environment. Along the way, you and your classmates will sample biochemistry, genetics and cellular processes, and integrate these concepts into your studies of evolution and systems of living things, such as respiration and reproduction. Through readings, lectures, and lab work, including dissections, you’ll finish the course with a strong foundation in biological concepts. Lab time constitutes at least 20 hours of the course. This course is intended for students who have completed grade 8 or above. If you have just completed grade 7, you are urged to take CTY’s Introduction to the Biomedical Sciences before taking this course.

Class History

Carlisle

BIOL.CAR.07.1 will always remember the sheep brain dissection, and the group presentations, especially the digestive system, by Ben, Janiel, and Bocong. They know that the class was a very exciting experience (except boring lectures).

BIOL.LAN.09.2 will always remember Talk Sess during breaks. Talk Sess was where we were all patients and therapists. We'd talk about our feelings, past relationships, life back home, or just crazy random things.

BIOL.LAN.16.2 was taught by Glen and TA'd by Victor. Glen often said interesting things that were recorded in multiple students' notebooks. The class also had an obsession with Pokemon Go (Pokeman) and the High School Musical Bad Lip Reading, specifically Daryl the Pony.

BIOL.B.LAN 17.2 was taught by Shan and TA'd by Alena, who sorely deserves a raise. (two dollars is slave pay!)

Notable members of the class include:

  • Vijay Subramanian, who was quote book holder of the session.
  • Kathie "Kat" Liang, who tried (and failed) to sneak Jeffrey Jehng into the classroom (twice!)

  • Laura Yee, who was Kat's squirrel daughter and discovered that yes, there are penguins in the Galapagos.
  • Waverly "Wave" Choy, who was extremely graceful at volleyball.

Notable events include:

  • The coining of the term 'grass sex' after multiple two-person "grass orgies" between Andrew and Kat
  • Partner poi practice during break, leading to the intense shipping of Vijay and Kat
  • The creation of The Ten Truths by Will
  • The taping of the electrical compartment by Vijay's flamboyant rainbow duct tape
  • The removal ceremony of said flamboyant rainbow duct tape during the final morning class, in which Vijay, Kat, Andrew, Athena, and Wave all gave speeches before each removing one of the five pieces of tape
  • The anal penetration of a frog by Laura and Kat
  • The breaking of frog spines by Vijay and Kat
  • The combination of two frogs into one by Andrew, Vijay, Kat, and Laura
  • The intense shipping of Dominic and Will (Wominic? Dill?)

BIOL.A.LAN.17.2 was taught by Glenn Ritter and TA Leah. This class had the highest scores of all 18 sessions taught by Glenn Ritter.

Notable Class Members:

  • Anthony Yu (no more) class clown, responsible for many notable events, got a low rice purity score due to "living in a white town. It's boring", brought an annoyingly loud speaker

BIOL.LOS.11.1 was taught by Dr. A. Harjani and TA-ed by Kelly McNamara. Members include Edmund Liu, Yoyo Fu, Aakarsh Rai, Luis Millburn, Danny Park, Albert Zhu, Reishi Mitsudome, Daniel Rodriguez, Angus Lin, Amanda Sin, Shreenu Sivakumar, Dana Nieh, Julie Lee, Nina Lee, Sophia Ly, Jenny Ha, Teresa Lin and Vorada (Tangkwa) Sakulsaengprapha. We were a very close-knit class, playing 8-square at break (Aakarsh was our King) and talking about random stuff. Many jokes were generated during this period, from photosynthetic jesus, the holy duck, and exploding teddy grahams to "I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE!" We learned alot about ourselves during those 3 weeks and we really came together. We cried together when we sang Kelly's Bio Version of Just the Way You Are, we dougied, we laughed, we sang, we dreamed and we enjoyed Asian Hot Sauce. And we'll always remember: "ATP ATP, who are we we're Bio B

ADP, ADP, who are you you're nobody

DNA and chloroplasts, we're going to kick you in the ass"

BIOL.LOS.14.2 was taught by A. Harjani and TA-ed by Kirsten Lutrell. We will always remember accidentally breaking one of the windows with a soccer ball, addie + subtractie, dead baby jokes, and the music on speakers during breaks. Also, Dr. H's bad taste in humor.
