OH EFFIN YES. Its the one course where if you dont have the book, you are microbiologically screwed! (lame line I know)
Anyways, reading the textbook is not as important as reading the figure captions! that is very important.
The test/exam is mostly MC and T/F type of questions and there is like 40 MC and like a 100 T/F questions, so even if you logically guess you can get a good mark. He mostly tests trivial information from his lectures/textbook readings/figure captions.
I got away with a double digit mark while reading the figure captions/paying attention in class to every trivial piece of worthless microbiological crap/lecture material.
Good luck !

Yes, this is one course where having the text is essential. As said above, know the figures! The prof literally posts massive pictures and tables with like 0.2 font and explains them very quickly.

The OP is talking about BIO 2EE3 (MicroBio) but I'm pretty sure the last few comments are talking about BIOCHEM 2EE3. I never heard of anything on Learnlink for Bio 2ee3 =S

Either I'm just horrible at navigating through all the folders or it doesn't exist because I haven't been able to find anything :(
I found BIOCHEM 2EE3, but no BIO 2EE3. |

That's because there's no Bio courses on LL. Only biochem and hth sci courses have folders on there. |

There are tons of notes/tests for other classes outside those faculties though. I figured there would be some Bio stuff, guess not.  |
