Comment:

Her section of the midterm is much easier than Dr. Maurus, however she was very unclear when explaining what we needed to know for the midterm. And when asked questions on calculating ATP cost/made she contradicted herself constantly and confused everyone, luckily I had an awesome TA.

Comment:

Was extremely unclear. Got frustrated when students asked for clarification about parts of pathways we should know. Often was not respectful of students time, wasting class answering obscure but irrelevant questions she found interesting, but failing to clarify parts of the course we were responsible for. Not hard, just boring and frustrating.

Comment:

She was sweet but not very organized and contradicted herself and her slides multiple times which just confused the entire class. Despite this her lecture slides were better than Maurus's (less of your own notes to add) and her exam questions were fair and relatively straightforward.

Comment:

Alice was a fairly nice prof, and I enjoyed her section of BIOC 302. She seemed into the course and was very straight forward on what we needed to know, what we should know and was just pure interest. I wish she taught the whole course! I think the best part was she tied the course into medical diseases and how you would treat it and why it worked.

Comment:

She makes a great effort in the beginning of the term to engage the class. I actually enjoyed her portion alot more than the maurus' lecture. She might not be very clear during her lecture, but her slides are straight forward ( she notes what material is not needed). Her questions in the MT are actually pretty enjoyable, needs some thinking.

Comment:

Dr. Mui was a decent professor for a very challenging course. However, I felt her test questions were not at all proportional to what she taught. And although she says to memorize huge amounts of compounds and reactions, virtually none of them get tested. Her slides were clear, but a lot of her questions were based on things outside of the slides.

Comment:

She is great and really makes this interesting. Clearly labels on slides what stuff is necessary. Downside is the stuff she spends the most time on in class isn't reflective of what is emphasized on the exam.

Has a high voice so sometimes hard to pay attention. Lots of memorization! But a fun course. Exams are pretty easy if you can memorize everything and attend/understand tutorial Q;s.

Comment:

Clear notes, knowledgeable about the course material, helpful and considerate to students, exam was fair and straightforward. The only problem she has is her extremely quiet voice but other then that she's probably the best of the biochem profs

Good professor, receptive to questions, seems knowledgeable. Her voice is very high so its sometimes hard to understand. Not much in class slides but writes down clear notes in class. Exam was fair; nothing to complain about.
