    "comment": "Professor Pagliarini was an excellent lecturer who took the time to make the material clear and interesting. His expectations for the exams were laid out lecture by lecture in a study guide which made preparing for the exams quite simple. I found that his exam followed the study guide and was very straight forward. Would definitely take again.",

He is very clear with what will and won't be tested on the exam. His lectures were interesting & he was friendly when asking questions. Its a shame he only taught 1/4 of the class.",

    "comment": "He is a phenomenal teacher. It is unfortunate that he is so busy with his research that he can only teach 1/4 of the course. He is by far one of the greatest professors at the university. Super clear with his lectures. Gives very fair exams, and overall a very kind guy.  The other two biochem professors leave much to be desired",

I left each lecture with a complete understanding of the concepts; which is rare. He did a great job. The tests are very fair so it will clearly reflect if you studied",
