Biology 3SS3
**note: I took the course with Dudley, not Rollo**
The course itself was fairly interesting if you enjoy biodiversity and the environment. Make sure you know the articles very thoroughly - most of them are interesting (especially at the end).
10% Quiz - mostly based on...

The difficultly of exam was in between the the two midterms and all multiple choice. The assignments were easy to get 90+ on, and there was 2% bonus for attending classes. I found the content to be boring and skipped most lectures after the first midterm. It is however doable to get double digits in this class. I do recommend this course for upper level science students.

Do you have any suggestion for any other upper year (lvl 3-4) bio courses that aren't difficult in terms of testing, and workload |

What were the Midterms like for this course with Dushoff? Was there a lot of memorization or was it mainly calculations?
