Bio 3P03 Prerequisite Confusion
Hi, I'm looking to take Bio 3P03- Cell physiology, but I'm having trouble understanding the prerequisites. Does the ";" refer to "and"? I'm guessing it doesn't as the prerequisites for biochem courses require registration in the biochem program and since bio 3P03 is in the psych course list it wouldn't make sense. If someone could clear things up I would greatly appreciate it .

Prerequisite(s):
One of BIOLOGY 2A03, PNB 2XB3 or PSYCH 2F03, or both BIOLOGY 1A03 (or ISCI 1A24) and six units from KINESIOL 1A03, 1AA3, 1Y03, 1YY3; and credit or registration in one of BIOCHEM 2BB3, 3G03; or ISCI 2A18

You need:

Bio 1A03 + credit or registration in biochem 2BB3 or 3G03 or ISCI 2A18
or
PNB 2XB3 + credit or registration in biochem 2BB3 or 3G03 or ISCI 2A18
or
Psych 2F03 + credit or registration in biochem 2BB3 or 3G03 or ISCI 2A18
or
Bio 1A03 + Kin 1Y03/1YY3 + credit or registration in biochem 2BB3 or 3G03 or ISCI 2A18
or
ISCI 1A24 + Kin 1Y03/1YY3 + credit or registration in biochem 2BB3 or 3G03 or ISCI 2A18

It's a bit ambiguous about whether or not the ISCI 2A18 could replace biochem 2BB3/3G03 or whether it on its own is a requirement, but based on the courses that 2A18 is a prereq for, and the fact that if you've taken ISCI 1A24 you also need kin, I think the 2A18 only replaces biochem 2BB3/3G03.

Only Biochem 2BB3 has enrollment limits based on program (it's not only limited to biochem students, some other programs can take it as well). Biochem 3G03 is open to students in all program.s

Hope that helps.
