CLear lecture, great notes in class. Online notes are difficult to follow but can be related when class notes are taken effectively. Exam portion was straightforward if you take the time to understand, make sure you ask questions because he helps. He will also hold review sessions.

Awesome prof! Easygoing, engaging lecturer, responsive to students' questions, and really just a good person. Exam was tough but we all saw that one coming. And don't worry, you're never in lecture for more than 50 minutes- he has a little timer that dings when his time's up! Oh so cute.

His exam portion of the exam was not hard. Some memorization was involved, but concepts were tested too. Definately less memorization compared to Dr. Brownsey's material. Overall, he's a good prof.

Comment:
He is a really good lecturer. But his exams, or everyone else's (molday, brownsey) exam stresses on memorization. I don't know whether mackie or brownsey has control over the exam style but I am certainly very disappointed that bioc303 is all about straight memorization (for term1 at least)

Very very nice guy! You will like his lecture and jokes. But the exams are pretty damn hard, but nothing is not from the notes, so don't worry.

Wonderful Prof! He definitely goes the extra mile to relate with his students! Tries to make things as clear as possible and is more than welcoming when you go for help outside of class! Exceptional prof! (Exams are a bit detail oriented however).
