Genetics Final Assessment Postponed!



HI All,

The genetics final has been move to after the CMT testing period. I'll get back to you with a date for the test later this week.

Use the time to study and post any questions for me right here!

One question I already received is, :Will we need to draw the reproductive systems?" The answer is that I would be able to label one and identify the parts but NOT draw one from scratch.

All the best!

Mr. F :-)
