EEMB2 . Even T J A Month Ago

Guidelines are filtering me. I studied for the exam, and it was still difficult. If you do badly on midterm one, there's a low chance of your grade rising again, exams made up almost ALL of your grade, and there was barely a curve. So many people had to drop.

His personality and lectures are so good but the exam was wack for no reason. Genuinely studied as much as I could to do just okay on it, average was 66%. Lectures are recorded. No iClicker grade. The 2 exams make up 90% of the grade (although there is a decent curve). He genuinely made me enjoy ecology however, and I'm really grateful for that.

Great professor and person. He covers material in a very simplistic but good way. Honestly a great lecturer, very cool material covered alongside him being a great lecturer. However, tests were kinda hard and not totally what we learned in class and I did a bit better than avg in the class, still got a C+, so idk

EEMB40 . Latto J G 4 Months Ago

An absolute GOAT! I loved this class: it was super interesting and well structured. Literally one of the first GEs I actually wanted to go to lecture for. Super knowledgeable. No projects, the online weekly quizzes were super easy with two attempts each, and the online final was almost entirely recycled quiz questions. Take for the easiest A ever!!

This is a super easy class with a very light workload. You get 3 short writing assignments total and one quiz a week. Everything including the final is open note so if you really wanted, you could skip every lecture and just look up the answers. Section is participation based and very relaxed.

He is a very good lecturer and makes students participate in the lecture, which is very helpful. The only reason I am not giving him a 5 is because his grading system is sooooo weird. Unlike every other teacher who has a 80-82.5% (B-), 83-86.5% (B), and 87-89.5% (B+) grading scale, his scores are B-=(80-81), B=82-88, and B+= 89.
