Really solid set of modules. Straightforward assignments and manageable workload. @leaf_ey
I was dreading having to do Biostats but it was a great subject experience. Perfectly organised and taught, made everything so easy to learn. Assignments are also well aligned with content being taught, so no tricks. I had Nadia as my coordinator and she delivered a fantastic subject.
