Comment:

Had her for Hered/Evo. Awful class. Please, I beg you, do not take her. If you have a good or decent GPA now, it will most likely plummet. Test guidelines are awful, tests are very difficult, and no matter how much you study you will probably only do sub-par. Also, I didn't really care for her as a person. Possibly ****. Terrible class, AVOID.

I lovee her! she's the most laid back teacher, her tests aren't bad, all multiple choice with extra credit, and if you follow her study guides, you'll do fine. she's cool, funny, doesn't take attendance...take her!

Avoid at all cost; she sucks!!! Funny and nice but screws you over in the end. Pointless to show up to class and do her study guides. Putting notes on an overhead for 50mins 3 times a week is not teaching.

AWFUL; worst teacher ever; def was not in her genes to be a teacher. Don't bother showing up to class or doing her study guides; they dont help on bit, i did not miss a class and did every study guide and got a C in the class; hard work in her class does not pay off!!! dont take her

Comment:

Awful, Take her during the night because she spoon feeds them (for exaple gives them extra credit). Dosn't matter if you show up to class or not, it dosn't help and she dosn't give a crap or know who is who anyways. Smart lady, I guess she didnt know this course was for none bio majors.

I learned so much in this class. The tests were not that hard, she gave out study guides, but some of the material was not on her tests. She is also kind of eye candy.

Comment:

I was dreading this class, but it turned out to be one of my favorites. She is so charming and I have never learned so much in one class. I am an English major, but I am so happy I took this course b/c of all the interesting info I learned. Tests are hard, and there is a 6 pg paper. Come to class all the time and she will favor you. Def take Gersh.

Comment:

This is an intense course. I hear it's easier over summer break. You will have to learn A LOT of basic biology to pass. By studying the study guides 4-5 hours before a test and keeping up in class you can get a B. She is a very nice teacher and always willing to help.

Comment:

Why is this woman teaching science for non-majors classes? I don't get it, in 1 class in which I was late I took 12 pages of notes. Didnt understand everything and left feeling defeated. She should ONLY be teaching BIO majors, not the laymen.

If you don't understand you won't get any help from her. If you are not a science major steer clear.

Genetics- This class was hard do not expect an A. Study forever and maybe you will get a B. 4 tests and a paper, a few homeworks. Dr. Gersh is a good teacher and entertaining. Not too bad but I'm glad I'm outta that class

dr gersh is really nice and a good person, but the class was hard, learning genetics as a non-science major is not easy!! also, dr gersh favors women, its so obvious, but she's nice and pleasnt and helpful.
