For a two credit class it was pretty difficult. The information was very interesting and the professors were knowledgeable but taught sometimes as if we were pharmacy students with background in the topics. The fast pace lectures could be hard to follow but were also posted online. Beware of very specific questions on exams, though some weren't bad

A great overview of pharmacology, medications, and common conditions many people will understand. The lectures are presented by several professors, so getting used to the differing lecture styles was difficult. I never felt like I did not know what to expect on exams; they were always on the content converted in lecture, and sometimes very specific

Professor Marker is knowledgable, but really just reads off the slides. All professors for this course read off slides and go way more in-depth than necessary to do well on exams. If you actually wanted to understand the material you'd have to have a science background. Overall an easy science credit and interesting material.

Quality 2/5Difficulty 4/5
This class is taught by 2 professors. Paul is kind of boring and his lecture style is dry. This is a basic pharm sci class. Mostly memorizing how drugs work in the body and what the body does with these drugs (receptors, side effetcs, etc). 3 exams which were a little tough & 5 very easy quizzes online, that's it. No tetbook or writting papers.

He goes through slides way too fast to take notes. You must copy them from online, and memorize everything in them. Straightforward exams if you know all the slides, but you do have to study/memorize a large quantity of information for a 2 cr class. Can easily get an A with effort though.
