Comment :
For a physicist this class was a complete joke. The math was ALL high school and quite a laugh when we were "taught" how to do logarithms right after a class of differential equations. It really is just a plug and calculate course.

A very math heavy course so make sure you have a good base in it. Overall a challenging course; you need to apply a wide range of knowledge. Some concepts were interesting but not as much from a biology perspective.
