Second was easier in workload than third year (5 biology courses & physiology course list courses). I got better marks in third year though.

Actually, we took 2CC3 in 3rd year and 2C03 during fourth year because we had to wait until we were done Bio 2A03 first which was only offered 2nd year, 2nd term. Taking 2CC3 3rd year did make things slightly easier because it overlapped some of the stuff we covered in Bio 2A03, but it took a more "kinesiological" angle, if that's a word . 2C03 also covers some 2A03 stuff but is primarily pretty different in material. I found it a bit harder and less interesting than 2CC3.

AGREED. Honestly, you're likely going to have a pretty heavy workload no matter what. Good time management and focus is key.

Eww 3G03. Did not like that course. Workload could be considered low as there are no labs or assignments, but there are quizzes every 2 or 3 weeks (? someone correct me if I'm wrong). The quizzes are...often very tricky, let's just say. Dr. Yang reuses old questions but sometimes he changes one little thing around to confuse you, and I just never did that great -_-. I did not find the course useful, but it's mandatory for physiology students. I know of some people who did very well in that course though.
