Title: 2nd year 2nd sem selective
Post by: Belgarion on March 08, 2014, 12:42:39 pm

Hey guys,

Originally i planned to do MIIM20002: Microbes, Infections and Responses as my other selective (im a 2nd year biomed) to keep a couple of the other majors open (genetics and microbiology, infection & immunology). However i know i am definitely going to major in either HSF or neuroscience next year (genetics is not for me and i deplore anything to do with the immune system). I have read the review and asked some 3rd year friends about MIIM and they said it would be more trouble than it is worth (as it is quite difficult), especially if i dont plan to major in subjects requiring them. I was thinking of doing PHRM20001: Pharmacology, How Drugs Work as the reviews are quite positive. I am looking for a subject that i will somewhat like and is not too difficult given i have my double core subject.

Can anyone give me an opinion on whether this is a good choice? Is there something better suited?

Thanks

If you deplore the immune system, why are you considering a MIIM subject?

Because i wanted to make sure i had access to all the majors. 1st year mindset i guess. Plus i didnt know what else i should do.
