Lol did you just determine his tru identity??

Yeah...I had a hunch when the event page said it was an MD1 student who got all of these Micro/Immuno prizes.

I don't mean to brag but I wrote that event page *preens feathers*.

Did you wish you could write 'stonecold' instead of his name every time?

Despite my best attempts over the past three weeks, I finally had enough time to start exam revision today and did one hour of productive organic chemistry study.

Haha I had no idea it was him. I just thought his last name was awesome.

I'm tempted to make a stonecold pun in the event description just to see if any non-AN people notice.

Research phys was the besttt! So laid-back.

Just a question for those who have done research phys in previous years. Would you recommend doing research phys in 3rd year and doing a 3rd year science in second year? One of my friends who is a 3rd year said I should look into because it benefits your GPA as research phys is easier so to speak.

Has anybody done the third year protein biochem subject? I think it's called Protein Structure and Function. Any good?

Thanks! 

spalvains and scribble: you are now tasked with delivering blow-by-blow reports on the subject.

Also, I feel like I need to let the world know that Gary Hime, one of the cell biology lecturers, described cell cycle regulation as having "layers upon layers, just like a Sara Lee cheesecake". This makes the entire subject worth it.

If it were a third year subject, you would have to make sure that research based phys isn't a prerequisite. E.g. you would have to complete research based phys prior to taking muscle and exercise in third year as it is a prerequisite. So there would be that hassle of having to ask the student centre if you can take RBP concurrently in third year etc. I think it would expand your options for subjects in 3rd year by taking RBP in 2nd year.

We had Gary too and he also didn't tell any good jokes like that!!

Really? He's really friendly and nice, he reminds me of a Womble a little <3
