Spring 2022 - If you are interested in taking this class because you heard it was “easy,” it’s not like that anymore. He’s back to his pre-pandemic style of teaching. This means that the only forms of grading in this class are two midterms that are completely multiple choice. If you miss even a few questions on a midterm, the possibility of getting an A in this class will be close to impossible. I really don’t understand this lame sauce professor and why he made this class suck big time again. He makes us students memorize his course reader (that costs $60) word for word. To get a good grade in this class, you need to memorize every word in the course reader. You cannot gloss over anything. For the first test, we had to memorize just under 30 pages! For the final, we had to memorize around 45 pages! This Professor is just not it anymore. He is so out of touch with reality. I really don’t know why he makes us endlessly memorize these random topics. This style of teaching does not solve anything for anybody. I would suggest taking another class if you want a fun life science GE. I even found classes like MCD BIO 138 to be easier than this…and that’s saying something.
