<p>Regarding Chem 3B/L: In an ideal scenario, you should not take EITHER Biology 1 course with this course. You definitely should NOT take Bio 1A/L with this class. Also, this class is better in the Spring. Vollhardt teaches this class in the Fall, Pedersen in the Spring, Viernes in the Summer.
Pedersen is better than Viernes who is better than Vollhardt.</p>
<p>Regarding Biology 1A: I know people get uber-stressed by the Spring genetics professor, so that might be a cue to take the class in fall. I took this course in fall, the professors were great. </p>
<p>Regarding Biology 1AL: This class is the same every term, as Meighan is always the teacher.</p>
<p>Regarding Biology 1B: I used to say that Biology 1B is easier in the spring, but now that it appears Mishler is not teaching Bio 1B in the fall anymore, I cannot definitively say much</p>
