Yep I know what you mean. I personally hate BIOS1101 and Genetics myself. But luckily, none of the 3rd year courses are that bad. Those two are the worst courses I've done in 4 years of my undergraduates.
Microbial genetics is really fun (nothing like 2nd year genetics) but it's a difficult course so you need to understand the concepts very well. You learn about bacterial transformation, different sequencing and microarrays methods, HIV and bird flu genetics, bacteriophages etc in lectures, then in the lab, there is a lot of work because the experiments are so long and complex but it's a lot of fun.
Immunology is always one of my favourite but the course cooridinator who ran the course has gone so I'm not sure who ever is running the course is as good as her. You learn from everything T cells to B cells to applications of immunology in clinical settings. The interaction between the immune system and paghogens will also be explored. The lab is a difficult in my year because we have to form groups of 4-5 and we have to design our own immuno experiment from scratch and find the answer to what immunology questions we have in our mind. I'm sure it's changed now becaue it was very expensive to run (e.g. order different reagents and/or mice for 20 different groups). Now you just have set practicals like other courses e.g. learn how to do ELISA etc. I find this course easy just because I am interested in immunology and the concepts come naturally to me. But people said immunology was hard so I'm not sure.
Molecular Biology of Proteins - haven't done it but friends who has said it's pretty good.
You will thoroughly enjoy all of the MICR courses. None of them are boring and difficult to pass if you put in the work. You do have a lot of learn so be prepared and don't fall behind!
I hope this helps.
