I listened to "You Know NOTHING About Biology". Wow! What an exciting composition. I like the crazy time signatures that you have created; it was interesting that you would repeat a strange time signature combination several times. This allowed it to sink into the ear, to the point where it did not sound so irregular.
What I like the most is how the song has sections and development and actually builds to something. The problem with most songs is that they pretty much stay at the same dynamic level, and with the same harmonic rhythm, throughout the whole piece. Kudos for being creative with that!
My only suggestion is to always consider the piece as a whole, as well. Why are you writing it, what do you want to get across, and how do you want the listener to feel at the end of it? Sometimes I felt that the sections were wandering, and considering these questions might help that a bit.
