UTSC

bring me the bio minor!

Hey there,

I’m a second year student at UTSC. My biggest problem right now is that I’m not sure what my other minor should be… I’m leaning towards Bio since I’m really interested in it and I’ve already got the intro courses done (transfer credits from high school). But the problem with that is that one of the courses which will pretty much unlock the ones I’d like to do (BIOB10Y) has a prerequisite that I failed (CHMA11 due to stress from a then unknown medical condition). While CHMA11 isn’t required to minor in Bio, do you think I could get by if I just register and get into BIOB10? Or do you think that would create any problems? Thanks so much.

Yo!

So yeah BIOB10Y seems to be a necessity for this minor. However, without the prerequisite, you’ll have to either 1) well, get the prerequisite, or 2) beg the instructor to let you in.

But your program requirements for this bio minor would be 4.0 FCE — 1.0 of which must be BIOA01H and BIOA02H and another 1.0 must be in C or D series. It’s not totally impossible to finish the minor without BIOB10Y. For example you can do:

  • BIOAo1H Life on Earth: Unifying Principles
  • BIOA02H Life on Earth: Forms, Functions and Interactions
  • BIOB31H Plant Physiology
  • BIOB50H Ecology
  • BIOB51H Evolutionary Biology
  • BIOC54H Animal Behaviour
  • BIOC62H Role of Zoos in Conservation
  • BIOC63H Conservation Biology

See? Not impossible. 🙂

Cheers!
