Fall 2024 - professor burton is an engaging professor and has more of a personality than most of the professors i've come across. for the 7 series, the professors don't individually write the exams, so picking the class based on professor isn't super important. although she is very engaging, i did find myself teaching myself all the content on my own. she is very knowledgable about biology, but that also means she teaches it as if we already understand the material. i didn't find the class very difficult, as there is a lot of grade cushion, but the tests are written very poorly. overall, this class wasn't too bad, despite what most people may think, and professor burton is one of the better professors i've come across here.

Spring 2025 - Andrea was a pretty good professor and was really nice to talk to if you had any questions. Pires on the other hand was sort of a nightmare to talk to. The whole class itself is fine but you really need to understand everything to be able to answer the theoretical aspects of the exam. I had to take an Incomplete this quarter due to extenuating circumstances but if you average 70% on both midterms and the final, I'm sure you'd end up with at least a B.
