Biophys 1s03
If anyone has taken the course BIOPHYS 1S03, can you tell me how you found the course? Is the course more physics based or biology course? Would you consider it a bird/average-booster course?

No one's ever taken this course before, as the course as well as the Honours Biophysics program is completely new this year.

I talked to one of the program coordinators about the Biophysics program during the year and she said the course pretty much covers broad topics in Biophysics. So I guess you'll see stuff like Membrane Potential (?) and Soft and Condensed Matter; an introduction to stuff that you'll see as you progress through the Biophysics program.

In terms of difficulty, I'm guessing it'll be easier than PHYSICS 1BA3/1BB3, since the admission for Honours Biophysics in 2nd year does require a C+ or something in BIOPHYS 1S03 if you don't take PHYSICS 1BA3/1BB3.
