    • What would we put on a survey to the undergrads?
    1. Which restricted electives are you taking/planning to take?
    2. What are the criteria that you use for selecting BE electives? (Rank: ease of class, subject content, reviews, professor, etc.)
    3. If BE offered something similar to Biotracks in Course 7, would you take electives more seriously?
    4. What do you expect to get out of a restricted elective? (Choices: letter of recommendation, minor, an easy A, further exploration of a particular BE field, tangentially applicable knowledge to BE, etc.)
