charmer08 Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Anyone know of some nice upper year (bio related) kine courses at york that are not research based? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanillabear Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 Exercise Phys, Advanced Exercise Phys: Cardiovascular, Endocrine All of those are good as far as I know- only took the first one but Birot teaches cardio and he's great! Leap is probably better able to comment on this. Birot is awesome. He once called out these people who were talking loudly: *French accent* "If you want to chat you can go the cafe and get your coffee and biscotti and chat." Best class ever. hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanillabear Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 Has anyone taken cellular and molecular neuroscience? I was thinking of taking that next year. That and Immune System (3710). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL I really wanted to take 3710 too but they don't allow bio majors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanillabear Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 Performed a search and found the following: I heard functional neuroanatomy was really hard...and I remember looking at the powerpoints for neurosci and they were pretty intense/scientific. Immune is supposedly a good course though, and its taught by Wu which is always a bonus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leap87 Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 Functional anatomy was not bad at all. You just have to keep on top of your work, otherwise you're pretty much screwed. Fallah is an awesome prof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charmer08 Posted May 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 Can you take these kine courses without the prereqs? has anyone ever tried? I'm a bio major and don't have the prereqs for most of these courses but they sound way more interesting than some of the bio courses!! It depends on the course. For eg, I doubt the prof will let you into functional anatomy if you havent taken anatomy. But if you've taken chordate anatomy, he might. If the prereq is fitness and health, human phy I or phys II then the prof will most probably let you in assuming you've taken cell bio. And I've taken a couple without the prereqs. You just need to email the prof and ask for their permission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't hurt to ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charmer08 Posted May 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 so Human phys 2 can be taken without human phys 1? I've heard that part 2 is way harder than part 1 so would you recommend taking it without part 1. I have taken cell bio in 2nd year and animal phys 2 as well..and what about human nutrition? thanks! I took human nutrition without the prereqs. You def don't need the prereqs to do well in that course. For phys 2, yes you can take it without taking phys 1. We go in much more detail in cell biology than they do in phys 1 (phys 1 is physiology at the cellular level i.e. cell biology). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capnamerica Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 OP, what do you mean by research based? I took Advanced Cardio with Birot, and he said himself that it was research based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charmer08 Posted June 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 OP, what do you mean by research based? I took Advanced Cardio with Birot, and he said himself that it was research based. Writing research papers, presentations, reading primary articles etc. A midterm and final does not sound like its research based tho lol. How was the content of that course?

vanillabear Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Did either of you end up signing up for it? I'm taking it- thinking of doing a masters in neuro if I don't get into med this cycle, figured it would be a useful class Be tortured! It involved exercise bikes every single lab and setting the resistance so high that someone had to watch the biker. Not so pleasant. Nope, will possibly take it next year though. Got into some birdies this year: 3710 (Immune System) with Gillian Wu and 3635 (Epidemiology) with Hala Tamin Oh man, I'm taking Exercise Phys next semester...the Human Phys II labs were fun, doesn't seem to be the case with Exercise Phys!
