This research investigates the perceptions of biology lectures and labs according to the SETGO program students. Beliefs about the integration of biology lectures and labs, and whether biology labs cause students to use higher-order thinking skills will also be assessed in this research. There has been a push in recent years to reform traditional biology lab methods to be more inquiry-based to develop students' higher-order thinking skills. Biology lectures and labs should also have a sense of connectivity. Students should not feel like they are in two different classes when go between lab and lecture. Therefore, the students were asked how important it was for their biology lecture's content to be related to their lab's activities. Students identified that it was extremely important to have their lectures and lab linked. They also explained that their labs were not causing them to use higher-order thinking skills.
