Any advice on which course to take MBB322 or MBB331?

    northwood is insane. she tells you pretty much what's on the test though, but she is a freaking mess.

    mbb 331 is pretty slack ass for an mbb course. and you get like 20% for tutorial which is easy marks.
    i heard sinclair is good, but i haven't ever had him/her before.

    322 is a good class. it has 4 midterms, not cumulative, no final (at least when i took it). it's split up into signal transduction and immunology, if i remember correctly. 331 is also a pretty easy class for MBB, i agree. there are 2 midterms and a final, which are all pretty straight forward as long as you keep up with classes and tutorials. i had 331 with harden, he was a good prof. but, i've had sinclair for 308 and 432, and he is definitely one of my favourite profs in the department. his notes are easy to follow and his exams are fair. northwood is not bad either and she really does tell you exactly what's on the exams. i remember for 322 we had 2 profs though, northwood and someone else (don't remember the name), but i don't know if they do that anymore, or if that was just a one-time thing. all in all, for MBB classes, these are definitely the two i would recommend. i personally liked 322 better, because the class was more interesting and i liked the idea of having no final.
