CSC1

I finalized my first term with my mentor yesterday, and I'm starting out with CSC1 (Nutrition). I was hoping to get feedback from anyone who's finished or currently taking the class about what I'm in store for. My mentor said that typically students don't start out with Nutrition because it's one of the longer classes, but I had already gotten a head start on the reading and didn't want to move on to something else. So far I can definitely tell that it's going to be A LOT of reading (which I'm cool with), but I was wondering if anyone might have some insight about what's more fluff/busy work than the more important stuff.

Thanks!

    I started with nutrition and health assessment and managed to get them both tested about a week and a half after my term started, so it's not so much that they are long, but it is a lot of information and the test can be kinda weird. Lots of 'select all that apply' questions, which are a PITA. :) I would say it depends on how much about nutrition you already know. Don't kill yourself on indepth biochemistry - head for the basics.. How much of whatever do people need, what's a fat soluble vitamin and why is it important, etc. Pregnancy and lactation requirements, as well as children.

    I have my objective assessment scheduled for this Thursday. I took my pre assessment about 1.5 weeks ago with an 81%. My mentor keeps saying that the objective assessment tends to be more difficult than the pre, yet the questions are formatted similarly. For anyone who's taking CSC1, would you say that there's any truth to that, or is my mentor trying to scare me into studying day and night?

    Not in my experience, but they could have revamped the test since I took it. I did very little studying. I read through the COS, then just took the assessment. I think I spent about a week total on that class.
