...students are likely to have difficulty, and takes special pains to help them. The labs, under Pomerat, are very fine. Romer's Bio. 2, on Comparative Anatomy and the Evolution of invertebrates, is especially valuable for its lab work, though the lectures are dull. Students who had taken some Math., Physics and Chemistry found that Wyman's half year on the Physics-Chemical aspects of Biology was useful for the last part of the Divisionals, and for their honors theses. It is advanced; there are no labs, but three lectures a week and occasional problems--like a kind...
While not required, both Math A and Math 2 are strongly recommended and practically essential. If you are going into Physical Chemistry, Math 5 is necessary. All of these are excellent courses and the section men in general are all interesting and good...

...course in Physics in also prerequisite for the field and one in Math highly desirable. The two-year combination course in Physics F and G given by various members of the department was considered so much better than either Physics B or C that Chemistry concentrators are strongly advised to take these, preferably in the sophomore and junior years. It was said of both B, for those who have had no Physics, and C that they give you formula with no derivation. Neither Black nor Sanders were spoken of as inspiring lecturers...
...good if sometimes not overly inspiring lecturer. It centers in the laboratory requiring from ten to eighteen hours a week. 2, under Fleser, while less exacting than 4 is a very thorough introduction into organic chemistry, and is generally considered excellent. Likewise 6 under Wilson in physical chemistry. Math and Physics are particularly necessary background for this latter course...
