Naturally I know I’ve only done one year of the degree but hey if you don't like the sound of year one you probably won’t like any of it!
I tried to cram it all in to these sections:
STRUCTURE (labs lectures contact hours etc) 2:58
CONTENT (modules) 8:46
EXAMS/FREE TIME/“HOMEWORK” ETC 10:55
Modules: www.bath.ac.uk/catalogues/2018...

My final year in my biochem degree.. Best advice i can give is MEMORIZE ALL THE STRUCTURES AND PATHWAYS IN THE BEGINNING. Update : I'm a grad student now

@Biomeducated 4 года назад

Amen! Same applies for Biomed :D There's tons of overlap with Biochem/Biotech. Classes like Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Protein Chemistry, Genetic Engineering... Can't write down a full Krebs cycle myself anymore, but then again, haven't come across situations were I needed to. Perhaps the essence is more to remember how different macromolecules enter in different cycles, and how much ATP is generated. Ow, and then there's signal transduction pathways also, haha. Damn you, JAK/STAT :D

I recently discovered this video while researching university topics to look into, I came across Biochemistry, and really wanted a rundown on what it was all about and this really helps a lot 😎 I am 25 years old, from America who's never been to a college or uni, but despite an interest in Biochem, I've been studying languages, and linguistics on my own for the last 5 years, but career wise, I have been looking into something that is challenging and involved in the sciences to help the general public. Lastly, this video was very informative and I appreciate your enthusiasm, thank you from the US 🙌🏻

@williamevans9426 4 года назад

I studied biochemistry at Cardiff University (BSc 1987; PhD 1991). My bachelor's degree involved equal proportions of biochemistry, chemistry and microbiology in year one, half-and-half biochemistry and chemistry in year two, and biochemistry only (with an elective) in year three. In my experience, the days (other than Wednesday afternoons) were filled with lectures, tutorials and labs., with evenings reviewing the day's lecture notes and completing assignments. My advice would be to make thorough notes, memorize the metabolic pathways (and understand what they mean) and work consistently. Don't rely on 'cramming' and you should be fine!

@Laws2 3 года назад

Going to graduate this spring with a BS in biochem and a minor in chemistry . All I can say is keep an open mind on your final major, you’ll be exposed to a lot of different sciences and math. If something piques your interest, I suggest you take a class or two to explore it. The further along you go into biochemistry, the tighter your schedule becomes and you’ll get less opportunity to switch over to something you might like more. Feel free to shoot me any questions if you have any!

( I'm not much of a public commenter but here I go! ) You see I love theories and using ur head to figure things out ( even though I usually fail at stuff like that I enjoy them ) and like science and biodiversity in general. I didn't do much research in the field itself but after we did some random formulas in class i cried. It was so confusing and I didn't quite understand it tbh... I was wondering if the field itself is mostly based on confusing formulas and less hands on work like looking at a organism and specimens through a microscope. Is there specific types of biochemists that specialize in different things? This is a old video so I doubt you'll reply but if anybody in the comments could I would really appreciate that!

@NooStenningVideos 3 года назад

Hey, welcome to comments haha! I would say it’s definitely a mix, it’s hard to say for sure as all the areas are different and I’ve never worked full time in a lab! But biochemists definitely specialise in different things and there are different jobs which use different skills- if you’re interested in human biology on a small molecular scale, I would go for it :)

I've read some forums (they're from 7 yrs ago which I'm skeptical about) but like some people said that a biochemistry won't be able to get you a job and all that stuff like it maybe hard to get a job. Like I was interested in biochemistry just not looked at it that much. Basically , is it worth going into? Do universities help in getting a job with research or whatever?

+Master Chief hi, you will get a reply haha! Biochemistry is very well renowned for being broad enough that you can get quite a few jobs from it- especially from a good uni like Manchester! They absolutely help you getting a job, for example at Bath they also recommend you do a placement year which gives you work experience and potentially the opportunity for a job there when you graduate. Obviously optometry has a clear job path unlike biochem but that doesn’t mean there aren’t a lot of jobs especially in research.

@naimasoussi6281 6 лет назад

Hello there ! Its my last year in high school this year, and im really interested in everything related to biology, biochemistry, etc. But the only issue i have is that i don’t know what jobs these kind of degrees can help me get in the future. I’d reaally appreciate your help, thank you.

+Naïma Soussi hey, I think I answered a super similar question on this video already but in case I'm getting mixed up, basically biochem is very broad so anything from drug research-conservation, lots of medical related careers and general research into plants and the body! I'm sure the internet is more helpful than me x

I don’t know if I want to study biochemistry or chemistry, I much prefer chemistry but I don’t mind biology and so I’m open to studying either. The only factors affecting my issue with deciding is the careers available to me with each, like is there more options if I study one of them? Would I benefit more from studying one than the other?

Thank you so much for this video !! IK applying to college (in the us) and I’m torn between biochem or biomed/biomes engineering but can’t decide ? Could you offer any insight on all three ?? That’d b great, thanks !!

@NooStenningVideos 5 лет назад

Biochem is the detailed basis of living processes, biomed has a body/drug focus and to my knowledge boomed engineering would be things like prosthetic limbs but would have a good chunk of biomed in it x

Ik your comment is a year old but I’m basically in the same shoes you were in back then. If you happen to see this, what major did you end up choosing and why?

@bhsprinkle 5 лет назад

Wanted to go into biochemistry. To go to college in it. I'm planning on going after a P.H.D Do you hafta pick a specific specialty? What options do they give you for specialization? I'm planning to do it online. Do you know of anything about online college? Do you have any advice on what parts of biochemistry require the most attention? Do you recommend biochemistry? Do you regret it?Are the lessons dependant on specialization? How soon must you specialize ?

@shannonelaine9052 5 лет назад

Which degree are you doing?, and is your degree a specific one?, cause i want to specialize in a degree but not sure which one, (If there are many). As i want to peruse my career in a hospital/Medical Faculty. Please advise me.

@shadowstrike234 Год назад

I'll be going to uni in a few months to study undergrad biochemistry. I read a few textbooks in my sophomore and junior year of high school to familiarize myself with stuff (Michaelis Menten, Edman Degradation) to sort of prepare for this, but i'm super anxious. Hopefully I remember to update this lmao.

@matthewnair4151 6 лет назад

Just wondering how you found the transition of A lvl bio/chem to learning through lectures

@NooStenningVideos 6 лет назад

+Matthew Nair as in the content difficult or physically learning in a classroom vs lectures?

@imxn1000 3 года назад

@@NooStenningVideos i want to know too

@NooStenningVideos 3 года назад

It was fairly different as they don’t really stop to explain too much in lectures but the content was more interesting! It gets harder but not too much that it’s overwhelming in my experience

@makingprogressnow5324 5 лет назад

I cant decide between studying microbiology and fisiology on Belgrade university or studying biochemistry?

+Making progress Now depends on what you might want to do after- the websites should have lots of detailed information on the courses

@Dr_SalmanOfficial День назад

I have been studying my Bachelors Biochemistry degree in my university and What I have learnt during this degree is that, You have to prepare your lecture on your own, Prepare lecture notes, take time to research on the lecture topic and gather as much information as you can, because its biochemistry and exams can include information from any source. Make notes physically available and make sure to revise them once or twice a semester and then assess your abilities.

Hi, this was such a helpful video! In your video you said that you enjoy the science but don't want to end up in a lab, that is exactly me as well. I was worried that doing a biochem/biomedical degree only opens up lab career opportunities so I wanted to ask what other jobs you could go into that are not specifically lab related with a biochem/biomed degree?

@NooStenningVideos 6 лет назад

+Amelie Heimann I'm really glad! Basically those sorts of degrees are some of the best for transferable skills, you still have to write whilst gaining all the technical skills and using key parts of your brain haha! So in theory you could go into nearly any job. You could work in the front of business areas so marketing/business etc for anything biochem related so pharmaceutical company, cosmetics, food and beverage etc! I'm sure if you googled around you would find things x

I know that York had quite a lot of chemistry in the biochem course if that helps! Pure Chem has a lot of careers as it’s such a broad degree at undergrad, have a look on UCAS for some of those jobs :)

hi i'm in year 10 (year before GCSE's) i'm strong in all my sciences and just wanted to know, is the work at university similar or different to the work level at 6th form?

@NooStenningVideos 6 лет назад

+luca tristram hmm that's tough because it's so different in every other way that it's hard to say! The content is SO much more complex but you have more time to go over it and far less "homework" to do in 1st year at least. You won't notice being more stressed about work I don't think (depends on the person) but you would notice the content shifts a great deal to more detailed understanding and a faster pace of learning x
