If you are asking about the Summer Science Academy, my daughter went to it last summer and enjoyed it. There was a great deal of lab time (which she wanted) and some decent lectures. Her lab group was supervised by a PhD candidate from Penn. It will also give you a feel for a city campus...even though the campus is fairly quiet in the summer. The students involved were from all over the US.

I know a few high school students who took regular undergrad courses at night and enjoyed that, as well.

BUPM. By the way, I am in the precollege program and would take bio.

My daughter also focused on bio. Many of the students had already taken AP Bio and she had not, but it did not seem to be a problem....so don't worry if you have not taken it yet.
