Hey everyone. I was wondering if anyone could help me find 'easy' or bird science courses for third year students. I'm looking to improve my average a bit, and lighten my course load with some easier courses. Any suggestions???

Easy and science in the same sentence?

I don't have any suggestsions, but I've heard some of the bio courses are a bit birdy, like biochem maybe? (look through the course reviews, don't rely on my course, LOL)

yea, easy science course. like enviromental life sci, that was easy. or big questions.

Biochem 3G03

Do they need to be year 3 courses? Or just courses that you can take in third year? I've heard Waters, Gem Stones, Big Questions, and Natural Disasters were all jokes, although I don't know any of the course codes (so they might not be third year, or even science).

I heard if your good at math population ecology is really easy as well.

Bio 3SS3 was fun.

Bio 3T03 was 12-able, but the midterms and exams were brutal. I took it a year ago without Kolasa. I ended up drawing a fig tree and wasp on the final exam because I had no idea on how to answer the question. Yay for the bell-curve!

I also heard that the geo courses you listed are getting harder because so many people take them as bird courses.

If you like/are good at rote memorization, I thought Bio 3MM3 wasn't bad. Web assignments/dissections were fun and simple, but the lab reports (every other week) were sometimes a bit of hassle. I also heard that Biochem 2EE3 was pretty easy (?)...I'm pretty sure this course is in the course reviews.

Bio 3MM3 - O'Donnell is awesome.

Biochem 2Easy3? Boring course, though.

I'm taking Eth Sci 2GG3 right now, and its still easy. Even compressed, there isn't much new material each lecture, I can imagine it would just crawl by in the regular year.
