I took this class in the Summer of 2016 with Dr. Macdonald and Dr. Vulca. This course was online, and found it incredibly easy. The main topic in this course is about the metabolism of Carbs, Lipids, and Proteins in the body.
The mark breakdown is as following:
Test 1: 15% (Online)
Test 2: 15% (Online)
Online Homework: 20%
Student Lead Exam Questions: 5%
Concept Map: 5%
Final Exam 40%
All of the information comes from modules, and the homework questions are based on the module content. Extremely easy 20%
The final exam was all multiple choice. 10 of the questions came from the student lead exam questions, and the remaining 50 came from the 2 teachers.
The textbook i would somewhat recommend, to help with all of the pathways. For the first test, make sure you memorize all of the amino acids. This will help you throughout the course as well.
In the end, passed the course with an 11, with only a few hours of studying.
