But, since apparently they didn't know how to do it, the just give you half of genetics in one semester, half in the next, still keep it 100% separated, and call it integrated. It seems like they're doing each part together for the current first semesters (they're taking all of genetics in the first semester), but is that any different than when they were just different classes?
And, what's even better, is that they rush through the biochem stuff at a pretty fast speed, don't have time to finish the biochem, so wind up giving us a lecture or two the last day before the exam, and then decide to combine us with first semester to give us a week (so far) of information that we've already had!!

Yeah, I know. In my experience, which is little at this point, I have found that the administration does everything they can to be disorganized and without consistency. The genetics, which is low yield Step material, there is tons of time spent on, but Biochem is rushed. MCB I this semester has biochem the week before the final, aka glycolysis and gluconeogenesis 3-4 days before the final. Now, that's rushed. I feel that there is no consistency at all in the classes and what we're doing. I respect that the MCB department and Dr. A are trying to change things to hopefully make it more coherent, but we're all suffering in the meantime.
