God he is so hot
Great professor! Tests were fairly easy. Give away extra points! Overall great personality...relates to students well and always has something funny or interesting to say. Makes you feel like hes a more of a friend than a teacher. Not too bad looking either! I highly recommend him!
Very interesting class. Quite easy. Very clear on what's on the mid-terms and finals. Easy to get along with. Overall enjoyed the class.
awesome teacher! hate bio, but loved this class. really straightforward and the tests are easy if you study for atleast an hour before
Best teacher I ever had. His lectures are fun and interesting. His class made me want to take more biology classes.
This professor knows how to teach a lecture hall and still make you feel like he is talking to you. He does this both by telling personal stories of his adventures in the field and by bringing in examples be they overhead representations or real.
Great guy, great class, and I actually enjoyed science even though I usually steer clear of it. I highly recommend this class and especially this professor...very hot too.
awesome
Great prof, hott, funny, easy going. Only went to class to sit in the front to stare at him. Learned a lot.
Bio is my favorite and Prof. Even just added to my love for it! Its my favorite class this quarter, he is always making jokes and playing music before class. I like all of his personal stories he throughs in for emphasis!
Class was extremely easy and fun. Lectures were helpful and entertaining and be sure to go becuase 80% of the exams are on lectures.
It is professors like this that make me love Biology! Very interesting class and uses visuals to help explain! You will love this class, I did! Great Professor!!!!
Even is such a great teacher...he made coming to class something to look forward to...which is very rare for most pro.fessors
Great class, this guy is funny, and the tests are easy.
Best professor I have ever had. Soooo hot, sooo helpful and intelligent. Very funny. I learned a lot in the class
Dr. Even is just amazing. His style of teaching is unmatched and is probably the most informative and engaging way for students to learn. His midterms are extremely fair and considering the means for both midterms were above 80%, you can tell his teaching is effective and grading is fair. love him and his bald head.
I got mixed feelings about Dr. Even. On one hand he's incredibly passionate about teaching and it rlly shows in his lectures. On top of that it is apparent that he truly cares about his students and is capable of the utmost compassion. One tip: Dr. Even constantly emphasizes not memorizing and going for a more conceptual studying style but MEMORIZE
Dr. Even is a REALLY good professor. He dedicates time to understanding how he should teach students, and what works best for them. His lectures during the online formate were the most engaging I have experienced so far. I had him in person for EEMB2, and online for EEMB159, and he was great both times. 1 midterm, final, and section work.
Class graded on 2 midterm, 1 final, and discussion section. Dr Even likes to say his exams test your understanding of how material connects together but got my best score when I memorized slides and what he said. The TA's grade harshly since you need to write exactly what they're looking for otherwise your answer is worth nothing. Still a fun class
Not bad, but doesn't deserve a rating this high. He explains things clearly, but focuses on basic stuff, so its hard to get left behind, but there is not much meat for more advanced students. Also he is convinced his tests test "understanding" not rote knowledge, but to get good marks you legit have to basically memorize his explanations of things
He's an extremely straight forward professor. He tells you what is going to be on the test. The material was interesting and easy to grasp with some time. The class is memorization heavy, but if you put in the work you will get an A. He monitors his tests through Zoom.
Dr Even is one of my favorite profs at UCSB. Even though the quarter was online I felt I still received a UC quality class and experience. His lectures were engaging (even on zoom), and it is clear that he cares about his students. I recommend listening to what he says in lecture (dont just memorize slides, learn the concepts) to get a higher grade
He's really knowledgable about the subject and has a passion for teaching. He talks more indepth in lecture than just off the slides so go to lecture if you want to do well. Although his exam questions ask for way too much imo and I barely finish in time & my hand is dead afterwards. He wants everyone to do well so class and really cares about you.
Dr. Even is the best biology professor I've had at UCSB! He has a lot of passion in the subject matter and it shows in his lectures. His powerpoints do not have much info on them and he gives most of the details in class. His exams are pretty long (5 pages mostly short answer) but doable. I highly recommend you take any of his classes.
