I went to her office hours frequently and she is very helpful and approachable! This class was not easy but if you actually go to lecture and study you will find the tests are fine. She is such a nice sweet lady and does not deserve most of these comments. I think she's a great teacher.

She's a nice teacher. Lectures might be a bit all over the place. But the tests are straight forward. I have to disagree w/ these other ppl's comments about her, because she's a nice person and very approachable and helpful. If you think her class is hard, it's probably your fault. Because I worked hard and I got a really good grade. No complaints.

OMG! SHE MADE MY LIFE SOOOOO MISERABLE THAT QUARTER. Her tests are the worst tests you could imagine to take EVER. Basically : "It's A but not B, It's A, B and C, it's not B but it could be A or D, or it's none of the above except E" She just wants to screw you over with her Plant hormone questions. AVOID!!!!!

she teaches WAY TOO FAST!!! she thrOws SOO MUCH maTeriaL aT yOu in one LeCTure. tip: if ur LosT, RAiSE UR HAND and maKe her repeaT iT if iTs nOT cLear! oTherwise, yOuLL be SOO LOST... cause she'LL keep on gOing and throWing mOre maTeriaL aT yOu!

Enjoyed Ruth. Not the most dynamic lecturer, but not terrible. Not sure why so many folk complain about the grading. Too much time on DP to earn a A?

sooooo boring

plant development, not too many people in class. her tests are pretty straight forward and from lecture.
