Chem 2PD3 vs Chem Bio 2P03
So, looking for advice which one to pick - anyone want to weigh in? I've already checked course reviews.

Which one is generally more interesting (for a biology perspective), workload, difficulty - anything you can add would be great.

Thanks for the help

CB 2P03 is geared more towards life sciences, so if that's what you're looking for, you should take that one. If you're looking for something more chemistry based, 2PD3 would probably be better.

In terms of workload/difficulty, 2P03 has changed since I took it and is (thankfully) no longer taught by the same prof. Last year, a lot of the biochem kids thought it was hard, so they made it a pass/fail course to keep them from dropping out of the program...not sure if it'll stay pass/fail, though.

Who was the professor last year? I thought the same professor was teaching it again this year, as it is Dr. Kruse...

Yes, but I took it two years ago, with Lorne Fell as the prof.
