Comment:

Eileen's hella chill n laid back. There's 3 tests and 3 quizzes all multiple choice and sometimes structure-function label. Study her powerpoints online, skim through the book, then read the review at the end of the chapter, and you should do fine. We have labs too which is good to boost up ur grade. Had her over the summer and loved the class! =]

Comment:

Thought it was going to be and easy class, but turns out you do have to read some of the book to pass. Review her slides like its do or die. Tests are based off of them. Go to her classes, do your project, and memorize her MT's and you'll ace the final. Thought I was going to get a C in her class, I came out with an A!!!

Comment:

Professor Pacier is very helpful and nice. Her class was a bit tough, but if you study the PowerPoint slides, then it will be an easy A course. Folks that speaks badly about her are lame...very sweet lady and really understanding.

boring lectures but EASY grader. didn't even need to use the textbook since she uploaded her powerpoint lectures online. final was comprised of questions from previous midterms and the answers to the questions were posted online before the final.

Comment:

Her tests are hard (I averaged D's), but homework boosted up my grade a lot, along with presentations. She's a bit of a hypocite for telling us not to eat junk food when she walks in with a McDonalds drink :|

Comment:

Not a very inspiring lecturer, but okay once you get used to her style. Grade is based on tests, final, writing assignments, and oral report. The writing assignments are essentially 1-page opinion pieces about current events. Oral report is 5 minutes in lab about any topic you want. Questions on final come directly from previous tests.

Comment:

Biology is exciting, and she makes it boring. If you like listening to someone read directly off power points, this class is for you. She uses outdated films, sometimes for the entire period. Her tests are easy, but it is a boring class.

Comment:

There is no need to buy the textbook for this class, if you study off of the ppt notes she posts on the internet, you will do wonderfully. Her labs are easy (you always get out early), her lectures are boring but her final is easy. Overall nice lady but slow class. She drops lowest test score, so do well on 3/4, then cruise :)

Oh come on. She's a nice lady, thorough, no surprises. Labs are interesting. Good web site. Easy A. I bought the study guide and it made a world of difference. Lectures are long, but it's an intro biology class, what else did you expect? I liked her.

Her lectures are very easy to follow and if you happen to miss it you can just download it from her website. She's a very nice teacher and the class itself is easy going. All you need to do is study her outlines from the lectures and you'll pass with an A, don't even bother buying the textbook for this class!

Pacier is an easy going teacher. Her lectures are all power point and she gives outilnes for each chapter, so you don't have to do much work. no textbook needed. her tests are kind of difficult but all you have to do is study. she posts the notes online and she is always willing to help. i highly recommend her.

Comment:

I dont understand whats going on with the bad reviews?? This class was EASY and kinda fun. Her labs were easy, Her lectures where long but somewhat intresting. She puts up powerpoint presentations on her website so you can study them before tests. She drops the lowest grade and her final exam a piece of cake. Highly recommended.

Comment:

Oh my god. Take a class with her and you will regret it. She's so damn boring and drones on and on and doesn't really seem to know what she's doing. I keep forgetting to bring my cd player and a pillow so I can forget I'm there.
