There were some silly questions right from the book last year, but its extremely dry to read and I don't regret losing those 2-3 marks if it means saving me the time of reading that dull of a textbook

I did pretty well in this course it's not hard to get a 10+ in it, the Bio Sci Vol 2 wasn't that useful either since everythings in the lectuer notes.
