Clegg is an entertaining lecturer & helped make 8am lectures more bearable by starting a few mins late & doing jokes throughout the lecture. He sometimes speeds through lecture tho. I also have personal beef with his exam questions bc he expects you to remember very small details from lecture. He LOVES all of the above/none of the above options.

I really appreciated Feinstein's lectures because he connected all the topics very well and didn't speed through everything like the other MCDB 1A profs did. His test questions for the midterm/final were very fair and reflective of the lectures. Overall great guy!

Words the questions weirdly.

It sucks I have to rate this class so low, because my TA was really good. The subject matter was not as interesting as MCDB lab, but the exercises were much easier since we got instant feedback/unlimited attempts. Nguyen is not very responsive, you should never ask for help unless really necessary. So many tech issues, and she's not very helpful.

NOOOOOO! She sent out emails about tech issues happening but also still asked for proof of the tech issues, will give you 3+ grading criteria docs before giving any proper instructions on the finals, cannot hold herself accountable to save her life. Screenshot everything because she will blame issues on you before accepting she messed up.

This whole course is in shambles. TAs are always unclear of how to set up experiments, but it's not their fault, because they aren't properly prepped. Unclear lab directions messed up our research poster project, which was a HASSLE for half the quarter. The actual biology was interesting, but the department honestly needs to scrap/rework this class
