Biochem 2EE3 or Psych 3BA3?
I'm having trouble deciding which of these courses to take as they conflict in second term. I've heard biochem is easy but I've also taken some of Dr. Day's courses and really enjoyed them. Which would you recommend for overall interest and easiness? (11+)

Well they are completely different courses. Taking the biochem might open up other upper year biochem courses for you to take, while taking Positive Psych wouldn't open anything. You could just take psych next year if you're really interested (and by then, hopefully there will be a test bank because there isnt one yet). Just my opinion, hope it helps you make a decision.

is it a good idea to take biochem 2ee3 in the summer? Also what is the key to do well|?
Is it a course that demands alot of time? Coz i already have 5 course and this would make it 6 in term 2 (regular skool)
I haven't done ANY bio since grade 11. I really have no choice but to take it.

Biochem 2EE3 does not demand a lot of time. There's only midterms (2) and an exam if you decide to take it in the school year. It's not like other courses with assignments, labs, etc that can take up a good amount of time. |

Would you say for the sake of an easy elective, Biochem would be the better choice?

Depends how good you are at memorizing. Some people find it super easy, others find it extremely difficult. |

Memorize EVERYTHING on his slides, I honestly went to 3 lectures (gave up b/c his accent was too thick I couldn't understand what he said :( but basically he just read off the slides :p). Also, try to get past papers off someone b/c he recycles a LOT of his questions, I took it in term 2 and I counted, he had 15/25 questions in the 2nd midterm that I had seen in previous years LOL). This all applies of Professor Zhorov is teaching the course
