Biol 260

[zenith92]

Has anybody by any chance have taken/heard of anything about this course?

 

It says "fundamentals of physiology" in course description but thats not quite enough for me to get the basic idea of the course.

 

Thanks in advance for your reply!

BIOL 230, 234, and 260 are all new courses this year so you won't be able to find anyone who's taken them. But I heard they're dumbed-down versions of the similar third year biology courses. However, some of them have credit exclusion with the third year courses:

 

BIOL 230=BIOL 304

BIOL 234=BIOL 334

But BIOL 260 doesn't have an equivalent course... If I had to guess, it would seem pretty similar to BIOL 361

 

This is all speculation though... I'm not exactly sure if the second year versions are in fact easier.

May as well take Physiology 301 if you really want to learn something useful about human body.

 

This is the only course I found useful back in the days.

They actually suggest 260 as a pre-req for 361:

"Pre-reqs: BIOL 200. (One of BIOL 260 or BIOL 201 recommended.)"
