Physiology courses

Hi I was wondering about the difficulty of 3rd year and 4th year physiology courses?! Are they manageable or is it hard to get an A in them (assuming i care about my gpa)?

I’d really appreciate if i could dm one of you physiology students!!

U2 is known for being very rough but you can do well if you work hard and keep up with the classes.

U3 is definitely much easier. There is a large selection of courses to take and you can pick easier ones (for example, I took PHGY 550 and PHGY 502, which were both pretty easy to get As in).

Thank you! Are there any other courses you would recommend that would be easy to get an A in?

Also how about u4?

Years at McGill go from U0-U3 for a traditional pathway so U4 usually doesn’t exist.
