I took many nutrition courses at Cornell and I found NS 331 (Biochemical Basis of Human Nutrition) to be the hardest…and many of my friends who also took the course share that sentiment. I never took anatomy (NS 341)…but even my friends who received an A in the course said it was challenging.

NS 441 (Nutrition and Disease) was by far my favorite and while there was a lot of material to learn…the way in which we were tested on the material (quizzes, SOAP notes, short 1-2 page paper) made it fun and very easy to retain the information.

I had a lot of fun with my minor in nutrition…if I could do it again, I would have majored in it (or done HBHS with the nutrition focus).
