I have notes for Geo 1HA3 from Winter 2011 with Dr. Mercier, will that work for you? If it does, what's your email?

I have notes for Geo 1HA3. If I were you I wouldnt attend a single lecture, the mid-term and exam are both fairly easy, atleast I thought so and I didnt study a second, skipped most lectures and slept through the ones I did attend. Study from the notes and make sure to go to labs, besides that enjoy a nice bird course.

I've always found that making notes makes up a good portion of my learning in a course. I've had notes for classes before and all it does is take away one of the largest methods of retaining content.

Basically, if you make your own notes you'll be a lot more prepared when it comes time to study.

Thank you so much! I would greatly appreciate it if you send the notes to [email protected] om. Thanks again, and take care!

Hey, yes I'm not planning to skip any lectures this term, did that for the past term, and ended up with extremely bad results...So yeah, notes/midterms are just for extra assistance, if you have it typed up please send it to [email protected] om. Thank you so much

If it's anything typed-up, you can send it to [email protected] om. Appreciate it, and lol do you think mastering-bio is worth it, they say it's "optional' now?

@ Mr: Haha, thanks for 'thinking of giving it to me' XD

The rest: I understand making my own notes is better, but having additonal input is EVEN BETTER!

mastering bio is useless imo. the course is easy except for the final exam which was much harder imo than the midterms. the profs dont even mention mastering bio.
