Hey I'm thinking about taking these courses this year. I'm going into 3rd year biochem. Can anyone tell me anything about these courses, interesting or not? difficulty? or really anything about them

I have some friends who took 3X03 a few years ago. There was a project, and they ended up learning a lot, but the project involved actually doing stuff on the machines in/near the prof's lab - not too much out-of-class work. This was a few years ago though, so they might have changed stuff.
