Immunology is hands-down one of the best courses you will take during the first year. The classes are well taught, the course is organized, and most of the topics are interesting. The course is composed of lectures and small group case study sessions. While the material can be confusing at times, the professors and TAs work hard to make the information understandable. I would highly recommend attending the high-yield TA review sessions that are held throughout the block. The course pack is great and so is Parham (if you need additional material). Appreciate the awesomeness that is immunology and say thank you to the department for funding the Super Bowl party!
