All of the biology classes are memorization. These classes and tests are critical thinking. You HAVE to be able to think outside the box. For some people, that can be very difficult. But overall,...

I'm midway through week four. Things I've learned so far: -TAKE THE TOOLBOX CLASS!!!!! It's a life saver. -The students that post crap up on Facebook make themselves ultra paranoid about stupid...
