Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
Dr. Wilkinson is great. Class was fun and super informative. Will be an easy class if you've taken intro chem and intro bio. Attendance is not mandatory, but lectures are not recorded, and the exams are based solely on lecture material, so I recommend going to class. Grace is also very caring and willing to work with students on assignments.
