Additional comments:
The overall course load was pretty manageable but I was lacking towards the end of the semester since I was getting really over it and burnt out. It was great that I only had to be in class fortnightly and the PhD students were super chill. Everyone was willing to help out and answer any questions you may have. The quizzes at the end of each module weren't bad at all and you could pass as long as you paid attention during the modules and did the work. Workshop assignments did have increase in difficulty each time (or maybe I'm just dumb lol). Remember to read the question carefully (sounds obs) but there some were created with underlying stuff. Like how I mentioned rotator cuff but it was acc something else. I found this to be one of the easier ones in my program. If you didn't do bio in hs or previously dw cos they really bring in back the basics and make sure its drilled in from day one.

Additional comments:
Dan was extremely unorganised at times and cancelled lectures last minute. There were defs part of the content released that was over saturated since you could tell the material was close to a decade ago. All of the group posters that were made to present weren't even marked for the presentation. Things in this course felt extremely last minute at times. I feel like I would have liked this course more had there had been more communication on the assessments and hurdles that were given out.
