I've taught other subjects at the college level and let me give you a guarantee -- unless you are at MIT, ALL intro courses have remedial students, and it has little to do with what they were taught in high school. "or will they require tedious remedial education to re-do all the biology they were taught incorrectly the first time around"

Here's my own quiz:

Kids coming to college from high school remember the following from their high school biology courses:

a) The Krebs Cycle
b) The names of all known phyla
c) The Hardy-Weinberg equation
d) What the hot chick in the front row looked like wearing skimpy clothes in the Spring

Nick — my guess is that you don't have to worry about anything. I've taught other subjects at the college level and let me give you a guarantee — unless you are at MIT, ALL intro courses have remedial students, and it has little to do with what they were taught in high school.
