Biology Forums - Study Force

Hi, I am starting to learn Biology so next year I can try to enroll to the university and sit the exam for Dietetics.

Which book do you recommend the most between:

Openstax Biology 2e
https://openstax.org/books/biology-2e/pages/1-introduction

Campbell Biology 12th edition
https://www.pearson.com/store/en-us/pearsonplus/p/9780135988046.html

I think they are both valid but I don't know if maybe Openstax is more detailed since it's written by a university?

Campbell all the way, but it is way more detailed than needed for most intro courses

I would also get the physical copy over some online version too

Thanks for the reply. I think I am gonna print the PDF if needed. I also found one for chemistry:

Follow up question. Where can I find good tests to check my knowledge? I am using Chat GPT to generate tests but I think maybe there are valid ones around?

We have them scattered all throughout the forum

For example, go here and type "campbell"

You'll find a whole bunch of read made tests that cater to each chapter of the textbook
