Comment:

I'm a really good student, I tried my absolute hardest for this class and the best I could get was a C. Her labs are easy but her tests are very hard, be prepared to read whole chapters of the book line by line if you want to get a decent test grade. She also has an attitude problem. Overall she was cool person but she's a rough teacher.

Comment:

She teaches off power points, we had 4 exams. Not a difficult course if you stay on top of everything, but she goes over a lot of chapters. the exams consists of 4-6 chapters each. A lot of labs done, and she is caring. Not a bad experience, I enjoyed her class and lectures. Very interesting and she can be very helpful. I do recommend her.

Comment:

Extremley RUDE!!!! I took her because she had pretty decent reviews but her teaching methods does not add up to her reviews... Teaches off of a powerpoint. Youre going to go to class and listen to her talk while she clicks the powerpoint. The only good thing about her class was the group labs other than that I would not recommend taking her

Comment:

Taking Sweeney for Micro now, Im mad its too late to drop! I only took her because she had pretty decent reviews, but Im not sure if her reviews are matching up with her teaching methods. I despise professors that teach off a powerpoint and just paraphrase. Thats not a good learning method when your'e teaching science. Exams super hard.

Professor Deborah Sweeney will always be all of the previous comments that I wrote, but also wanted to include the fact that she is the best teacher anyone could ever hope for. She is really happy with her life which is awesome because she has that pure energy in her soul to keep you happy, comfy, successful, and valued as a student.

Professor Mrs Deborah Sweeney taught me a lot, in a fun adventurous fashion. I LOVE HER. i strongly advise that you have her for every class available. This woman has a pure soul and would never degrade you or upset you as a student. She is always available with good intentions and she is one of the most intelligent women I have ever met.

Its a tough class, anyway you look at it. Prof. Sweeney makes it as doable as possible. You have to study and really know your stuff to ace the exams. The exams are really tough, but there is a lot of room to do even better between presentations, extra credit, and labs. Also, she has no time for slackers!!!!

Comment:

Labs are easy and second half of the semester is all groups labs. Lecture she prints out all your slides so you can follow along. Exams can be difficult and have to study. Dont waste money on the textbook. There will be a few questions from it but if you understand the slides well enough, youll be fine. Presentation at end of semester is easy.

Professor Sweeney is a real gem! You have to pay attention from her lectures. Get ready to read aside from the powerpoint notes provided. I learned a lot and enjoyed the seminar at the end of the semester. Come to class, dont be late and follow lab instructions. I had her in Microbio so NO shorts, NO flip flops, NO hanging tees. We all love her!

I really enjoyed the class. She is sort of mellow but also very good at making the info understandable. I learned a lot and recommend her to anyone who needs a micro class.

Took her for Biology I last fall. The class is hard no matter who you have. Sweeney gives out copies of her powerpoints, uses lots of examples and always asks if you understand or have any questions. You have to study and work hard. Don't skip classes or show up late all the time. She doesn't tolerate the lazy students very much.

Absolutely loved Professor Sweeney. Such a sweet lady, always willing to help you out and truly cared about teaching. I was very sad when she had to leave for a medical reason and was unable to finish the semester but with the time a did spend with her, I was glad I did. She made a tough subject doable.

Comment:

Sweeney was a pleasure to have, although she had some medical issues this semester if needed I would take her again. Her sub was great as well. Just be prepared for 3 finals that seemed pretty tough, a take home final and do the powerpoint at the end of the class, its an easy A.

Take her! She is a fair grader and does what she can to ensure the success of her students. She offers extra credit questions on tests, gives copies of her power points, gives easy end of semester project to boost your grade and does test reviews. No reason not to do well!

Funny and enjoyable professor. The material is difficult but she makes lectures as enjoyable and interesting as she can. Exams are difficult and you must read the book to pass. Labs are very interesting. Would take her class again!

Comment:

I think this professor is amazing to have for microbiology. I heard the course was hard; however, she is pretty straight-forward. Every lab you are working with bacteria, she gives the questions for her test (I made my personal outline for the outlines she gave us) and you have one major project to do. She is funny and great to have.

Comment:

Overall, good teacher. Only major problem I had with her, is her chattiness. She will try to tell a story that relates to the topic & spend 10 mins telling you about her cat or her college roommates. Also, had a note explaining why I missed class 1 day and she wouldn't give me partial credit on the lab that I had set up the previous class.
