MBB 222 @ SFU
 

Anyone take this course before? I have it with Scott Briscoe if that matters, I was wondering what this course is like? Memorization or is it problem solving sort of like Genetics/Ochem? Any info would be great thanks

Took it with him, i think i saw more than half of the class when i retook it the next semester :P I'd say it's a bit of both

Memorization for sure, not really problem solving so much as analysis.
Ie: Which type of molecule will sediment most quickly?

(a) A small globular protein
(b) An icosahedral virus
(c) A filamentous virus
(d) A tetrameric globular protein

ans: b

I had it with Northwood though, I dont know what Briscoe is like. For MBB, unless you reach 4th year, you're gonna want to attend lecture no matter how boring the prof. Everytime I look back, the prof would have dropped one form of hint or another to prepare you for the mt.

Good luck! Hope this helps

PS: I have a practice midterm if you want a copy. PM me with your email addy :)
