Biology I: Molecule/Cell/Genes (BIO 120) at Bronx Community College has 2 ways to take it in Fall 2026, plus 2 recitation or lab times you pair with a lecture. 2 of 4 sections have an open seat right now.
Professors teaching it: Laura Broughton and Raffaella Diotti.
Of the 2 professors with a Chill Rank, Laura Broughton ranks chillest (Busy) and Raffaella Diotti least chill (Brutal).
Compare them below, check the days and times, and add the course to your schedule.
This course meets as a lecture plus a lab. Your schedule needs one time from each, and the schedule builder picks them together.
Prerequisites: CUNY English proficiency, or ENG 100 or 110 (if required); and CUNY Math Proficiency, or MTH 21.5 or MTH 23.5 or 28.5 (if required)
This is the first semester of a two-semester introductory biology series for science majors, focusing on the cell and molecular levels of biological structure and function. Topics include basic properties of living organisms, metabolism, energy transformation, cellular reproduction, Mendelian genetics, molecular genetics, gene expression, and evolution. Laboratory exercises consist of experimental procedures illustrating basic concepts of biology.

Ordered chillest first. A Chill Rank compares a professor with other CUNY professors on Rate My Professors difficulty, rating and would-take-again; it needs at least 3 ratings. How it works
Seat status as of Oct 4, 4:49 PM ET. Seats can change between refreshes. How fresh is this?
Chill Rank compares professors using Rate My Professors reviews, from Chill to Brutal. What each rank means
You need one lecture and one lab. They can be combined freely, so pick each separately; the schedule builder checks the times together.
