Quality 1/5Difficulty 5/5
Taken at evergreen for M2O Worst microbiology professor ever. She talks too fast, and is incredibly unclear. Exams were over very specific things when her homework was asking very vague questions. She didn't give good study material. Do not take a class from her

Quality 2/5Difficulty 4/5
This professor is nice, but she is not very clear when she explains concepts in Biology. She avoids answering the question being presented to her by a student and rambles on about something that has nothing to do with the question. She goes over mechanisms briefly and expects a lot of detail in exams, and her exam questions are very broad.

Robin is a very wonderful lady. She really does care about her class and does her best to bring a lot of information into lecture. However, her lectures are often unclear and a bit confusing. Many times when I would ask for help, I would get feedback like "I think you're doing well in the class, you should be fine." Even though I was getting a C.
