CHEM/GENETICS 626
Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
Accomplished intellectual. Expect your only assignment (50 min presentation) to be critiqued, with continuous interactive feedback, resultingly becoming stronger. While understanding novel genomics tools, you also see genomics as more than a set of tools. "Easy A" in terms of showing up, being professional, and putting serious effort into project.

CHEM/GENETICS 626
Quality 1/5Difficulty 4/5
This course is evaluated based on a presentation, mainly. He doesn't share the lecture slides with you. He will talk about movies and almost 75 % of the semester is the presentation by students. Your project matters, a lot. I do not recommend taking this course because it is not worth it. Everyone either works on their laptop or takes a nap.
