BIO152 · course not matched
Quality 1/5Difficulty 5/5
152 is the single worst course I've ever taken, mostly due to the lack of organizational skills this man has. Get into the case study or drop the class or it'll be a wild ride.

Quality 2/5Difficulty 4/5
Course coordinator for 152. A lot of homework that is too long to be graded as specific as it is. Consistently met all criteria for stuff, but didn't receive full points because did not go above and beyond. Rude when you email him with questions that he thinks are simple.
