Biochemistry (UG): Year One Academic Representative

Quick! Duck! Now that I’ve got your attention, I’m Juliette and I’m running to be your Academic Representative for Biochem and Tech. My goal is to help us all SMASH the first 7% of our degree. Having done both IB and A-Levels, yes, I complain about both of them, but they have taught me how study, mostly that success is a group effort! So let's coordinate.

  • Let’s get some study groups going! With anti-bonding going the way it is, let’s make opportunities to "trauma" bond in the library, and explain concepts to each other. (We can even migrate to the Union afterwards)
  • If work is piling up and time running out; I am ready to ask for deadline extensions. I will email Professor Kurt at 3am, if the Biochemistry class demands it! Armed with my custom email sign-off, I am ready to email our lecturers to clarify assignments, plead for deadlines or to simply ask questions.
  • Let’s start a resource library! With Anita firing 10 facts at us a second, shared notes and flashcards will get us through our modules, especially as exams approach. Using GoogleDocs, we can build a Biochemist’s guidebook, and I volunteer to share resources first!
  • A final reminder, if you ever miss a lecture, or don’t understand something;
  1. You’re not alone
  2. Let’s work it out together!
  • If you’re not comfortable messaging on the groupchat, you can message me. Even if I don’t understand it, let's work through it together!

See you in lectures!
