He is so nice, and definitely has a passion for this course, but he grades on a 50% 50%. Two tests one grade. Two very difficult tests that had completely irrelevant questions to the material. But he is very nice and willing to help.

Go to Lecture and do the reading. I did just the opposite for the first half and got a D on the midterm. I stared paying attention and did the reading and ended up with a B. He curves the class appropriately and is always willing to help.

Super easy class to get an "A" in, and you will learn a great deal about cancer. Attend every lecture because it will not only help you understand the material, but it may even save your life through the choices you make.

He is a great professor, lectures are a must and putting in time to study definately pays off

He is such a sweet guy. Tries to engage the class so the lectures won't be too boring. Reading helped me a lot for the final. I did no reading whatsoever for the midterm and did not pay attention in class so I failed it. But with a little reading from the book, I passed the class with a C. Take it, it's pretty much passable!!

Great guy. Sounds like George from Seinfeld. Lectures were boring for the first part of the quarter and didn't get much better. He obviously is passionate and funny, but I just wasn't too fond of the class. The textbook was the best part. I loved reading it. Concepts were made clear. He should have gone along with the text more. Tests too tricky:/

Kohl kind of sucks. Class seemed really easy at first but the midterm is a whole different story. Questions are totally irrelevant to the material. Lecture and book don't correlate at all. There is no point to this class. Don't be fooled by the 3 units and no section.

kohl really wants people to do well, if you go to office hours he will spend a lot of time helping you individually. the midterm is harder than you would expect, you need to know details but if you go to class and do the reading you should pass the class no problem.

He was a really great lecturer and his class is extremely interesting. I advise anyone who wants an entry level bio class to take this!

He's really nice.

Dr. Kohl is a really nice guy that cares about his students but the class itself was not the best. I would not recommend it unless biology really interest you. He puts the slides online. I never went to lecture-read the slides and the book because the test are hard. Easy class to pass with little work

Class seemed pretty easy until the midterm rolled around. Who knows where he got the questions from but it wasn't lecture. The book is easy but read it carefully because he asks for specific details and facts.
