Comment:
Nice, but not a great teacher. Talks as if she's completely bored with the material. Forgets what she said and makes you double back and re-do. All in all a decent class and the lab was easy. Doesn't grade your labs, just looks to see that you did - if the answer was wrong - you're studying a wrong answer for a test! Paper was long but not too hard

VERY easy! She explains what to do at beginning of lab. You keep a notebook with notes, prelabs, etc. Do this! It's def helps your grade! As long as you know what you're doing in the labs, you'll ace the practicals. Even though she rarely cracked a smile, she was very helpful and nice. If doing bad in lecture, lab will help-it's 40% of total grade!

She is very nice. but i found myself to be very confused most of the time adn sitll ended up with and A. tests are not hard just read the notes. labs aren't hard either but you have no idea what you are doing or how it makes a connection to the real world. recommend this class

she explained most of the labs at the beginning of class. she's picky about grading so make sure to put down as much info about a question as you can. if you don't know an answer she'll help you figure it out.

not a bad class at all. good to fulfill ADR. take it if you can. tests & labs but she gives a review for tests. the project wasnt too bad either. labs aren't too bad and we almost always get out early.

Comment:
Great atmosphere to learn. Lots of hands on activities. Provides vague instructions for labs but labs are not difficult to complete. Posts notes and gives good details of what to study for on exams. There are 3 exams, lots of labs, and one group project. Good for those not majoring in biology or science. Informative, at times disgusting!

Mrs. Taylor is rude and is such a pain, she doesn't mind embarassing people and she will yell at you if she wants. She hates being bothered and always has a look of digruntle on her face. I thought this would be a fun class, but I cant wait until the end of the semester.

She is such a pain. She loves all males and plays favorites with everyone. When she is in a bad mood, dont even try because you wont get anywhere. Avoid her and go with Dr. Mathur, who is so much more helpful.

Tests are very easy, you only have about two pages of info to memorize, as long as you write out the answers to the study guides and memorize you'll do fine. Easiest lab I've ever taken and fun to.

Comment:
Taylor is very helpful and usually nice. If she sees that you aren't following directions, she will insult you. Don't get too hung up on that, or it will be a long semester. Lab practical is VERY tricky. Lab is a lot of fun and if you have any questions, just ask her and she'll help ya out.

she was an alright teacher until i noticed how she picked on certain students. the whole semester she gave them a hard time. then she turned around and gave me a hard time at the end, kinda if she was singling me out like a wolf to sheep.

For some reason she was satisfied that her high test grades were in the low 80's while the rest of the class hovered around the failing point. Disection was awful and she made us do projects with a partner---that is never fun!
