The tests were terrible, the quizzes were annoying, and the nature notes essays were absolutely ridiculous.  Wayyy to difficult to be a 101 class, that's for sure.  ONLY TAKE THIS CLASS IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO GO INTO THE SCIENCES.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/535442","quality_rating":2.0,"difficulty_rating":4.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:06:01.893687+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTIxNzgzNjg3","source_instructor_id":"rmp:535442","instructor_name":"Sharon Thoma","course_label":"ZOOLOGY101","course_id":"BIOLOGY/ZOOLOGY 101","course_uid":"course_8c99a612c2020145d67e29b1","review_date":"2013-05-17 15:47:10 +0000 UTC","comment":"This class expects much more than any other 101 class I've ever taken. Besides mandatory daily clicker points to check attendance, you take 4 intense exams covering an entire textbook of material in one semester. This class is much more work than 3 credits, and the professors don't care about you.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/535442","quality_rating":2.0,"difficulty_rating":5.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:06:01.893687+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTIxMzk4MjY5","source_instructor_id":"rmp:535442","instructor_name":"Sharon Thoma","course_label":"BIOLOGY101","course_id":"BIOLOGY/ZOOLOGY 101","course_uid":"course_8c99a612c2020145d67e29b1","review_date":"2013-03-09 16:45:06 +0000 UTC","comment":"Very approachable and if you make an effort in her class she makes an effort to know you","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/535442","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":2.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:06:01.893687+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTExODQyMTQz","source_instructor_id":"rmp:535442","instructor_name":"Sharon Thoma","course_label":"ZOOLOGY101","course_id":"BIOLOGY/ZOOLOGY 101","course_uid":"course_8c99a612c2020145d67e29b1","review_date":"2006-05-08 00:43:56 +0000 UTC","comment":"Very good, very clear, funny tests...cartoons","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/535442","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":3.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:06:01.893687+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTEwODc2OTA0","source_instructor_id":"rmp:535442","instructor_name":"Sharon Thoma","course_label":"ZOOLOGY101","course_id":"BIOLOGY/ZOOLOGY 101","course_uid":"course_8c99a612c2020145d67e29b1","review_date":"2005-11-10 17:25:32 +0000 UTC","comment":"Explains everything well so it's easy to understand everything she teaches.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/535442","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":1.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:06:01.893687+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTEwODQ1OTM2","source_instructor_id":"rmp:535442","instructor_name":"Sharon Thoma","course_label":"ZOOLOGY101","course_id":"BIOLOGY/ZOOLOGY 101","course_uid":"course_8c99a612c2020145d67e29b1","review_date":"2005-11-07 20:10:38 +0000 UTC","comment":"She does a great job of explaining all the information, really good about asking questions.
