This class is WAYYY to much work. Emphasis on the way. Lab should be more about learning new techniques and less about writing 10 page lab reports sometimes multiple times a week. I will say though, people give her a bit too much hate. She had to adapt the stuff from even worse professors before her. You got this soldier

This course was poorly designed. The lab manuals and lecture slides were full of mistakes, often resulting in confusion for us and the TA's. There is so much work and very little information for help. Unfortunately, the course cannot be avoided and the TA makes or breaks your grade. Mine was a king (thank god), but I know others were not. Good luck

This class was horribly managed, the lectures were disorganized and paced incredibly pooly. The slides were frequently full of errors, the workload of the class greatly exceeds any other class here at UCSB, and the final was full of multiple incredibly irrelevant questions that provide no benefit to the student for knowing.

it's unavoidable to take a lab class with her as the head professor if you're a biochem (chem dpt) major. have fun hating your life in this class! chem 125L gets slightly better but like barely. just get a good TA

Unarguably the worst professor of this department. She has limited understanding on biochemistry and I can teacher better than she. She has been here in UCSB since 2010 and her academic "achievements" contributed little to the field of biochemistry. If she can find a job in university, then I think everyone can.

So disorganized and unclear. Unfair policies about absences for things like medical excuses. Way too much content thrown at us at once without supplemental readings given, the manuals are messy and hard to follow.
