Exams were a little tricky bc there was hardly any time to finish and no time to look over any answers all multiple choice. Overall pretty easy and good to satisfy science credit",

He has awesome lectures where he explains things in great detail but also at a beginner level of learning. The things he taught in this class stuck with me and have changed my life. Exams are hard though. Really hard.",

I took this class online, and most of the lectures have videos and do well explaining things, while others are black screens with only audio and no visual representation. This class was horrible online.",

However there is a lot of homework that although is very easy to do, it's also very easy to miss due dates which lowers your grades. Tests are way harder than you'd think.",
