Comments
This unit was a bit of a mess, the tutesheets ended up preceeding the content in a couple of instances, and Phil rushed through most of his content (he took us for 8 topics out of 11). Was pretty sad that they didn’t include nucleic acids much on the exam. Elizabeth’s lectures were the highlight of the unit- by far the most interesting topic (coordination compounds).
Next year, this unit is called BPS1022- Medicinal chemistry II: Reactivity and biomolecules.
