im not sure where im going, but i think it'd be a good idea to take a class in it. ive been accepted at houston and sa; not sure where to go yet. does anyone else not have biochem? and do you think it would be ridiculously hard if you havent had it?

Most professors don't want to teach in the summer, with fall and spring schedule classes taking up most of their time, they don't have a lot of research time, so as a result they don't teach in the summer, in order to get some research/writing done. It makes it really tough for bio majors at UH to graduate early.

also to add, most professors who are hired are on some type of tenured track, where they have X amount of time to get tenured, in order to get tenured you have to teach X amount of time, bring in X amount of students for graduate work, Get x amounts of Grants for research, attend X amount of conferences, Mentor undergrad students, blah, blah, blah.

the summer schedule at utd is not out yet, but if i remember right they have offered it there in the past summers. you can go to there website and look up archived summer schedules, say from 2004. I'm pretty sure they did offer it last year. good luck!
i suggest you do this one :
http://distance.une.edu/
it's through the University of New England and it's online. tons of people take this class (mainly aspiring PA's and Nurses). fits any schedule.

According to the professor that taught biochem at UT Arlington last summer, it should be offered again this summer. He said that he was pretty sure that it would be offered again this summer (since it has been offered every summer for the past 10-15 years), but he couldn't guarantee 100% that it would be offered. I believe they should have their summer course schedule sometime in March.
