This is the class that causes most Biology majors to switch to Management. Beware...

Lots of material to learn, print off the old exams and memorize them verbatim! If you can do that you'll get a B

*DON'T BUY THE BOOK* STUDY THE PRACTICE EXAMS- 50% of questions are the same* This professor is boring, I mean Ben Stein on depressants. Go to IU, real BIO students have no reason to go to an Engineering school.

Comment:

Nice guy, but the class is boring. The tests are poorly worded; you must memorize exactly what Robinson has said in class in order to get full credit. I didn't enjoy the class, but I'll admit I learned a lot. He is helpful but only to a certain degree. It sucks that the grade is only comprised of the 4 exams.

K-Rob's fine as far as class material is. He's just very boring and he's got a huge stick up his bum.

Comment:

This class is very easy. Everyone complains about how hard it is but these people are usually just lazy. In fact, if you just study the old exams, you have no excuse of getting less than an 80%. Plus, Robinson is extremely clear on what he expects of you.

Comment:

Most people hated him, but I thought he was great. If you have a pulse, the class is cake. Go to lecture, do the problem sets, and you're fine. His expectations of you are obvious from the beginning, and the only way to do poorly is to not put out a minimum amount of effort.

If you like Calcium, you'll love this class. The man could knock the whole room out in five minutes. This was the class that killed my Bio Major.

It's not his fault thatthe class is too easy for people to want to pay attention....it would help if he wouldn't speak in such a monotone...also i think if he did some more examples that would be helpful

Comment:

he knows his stuff! even though he's a physicist, he knows the material he teaches and does a good job of explaining what is important and going to be on the exams. the exams are VERY hard, he likes to trick you, but the good thing is all the past exams are basically the same as the present one.
