Absolutely hilarious guy makes lectures really fun. He says things in a way that you will remember them during the tests and everything is very straight forward, there's no trick questions or surprises.

Dr. Yount is hands down one of my favorite professors. He's funny and makes lectures so interesting, making it easier to absorb information. He's brilliant, definitely knows every subject he teaches very well. You have to put in the work to earn your grade, but it just makes it that much more rewarding. Highly recommend him to everyone!!

Comment:

I was worried going into the class because I had heard not to take bio with Dr Yount but he was probably my favorite professor I had at EFSC. His lectures are really good and the labs helped me understand what we were learning. As long as you study before the tests and take notes youll do fine. (I do recommend watching crash course videos too)

Comment:

Best professor I ever had. He never just sits and read his powerpoint like almost every other professor you would have. For the first time in many semesters, I was coming out of the lecture with information retained. His lectures are interesting and he won't get mad if you ask him questions. But you do have to study in his class.

Dr. Yount is very smart. He knows his stuff and wants you to succeed. He doesnt play around and expects the very best out of his students. Be prepared to study very hard for this class! If you plan to slack, text in class, or skip all together dont waste your time. If you work hard and have motivation, you can absolutely succeed in this class.

Comment:

I am horrible at science but I didn't mind Yount's class. All the information I needed for the tests I got from his lectures (I didn't open my book once). The tests are hard but if you study even just a little they're not so bad. Yount is hilarious, couldn't have asked for a better bio teacher. Do the labs and pay attention and you'll be fine.

As someone who is awful at science, Yount was definitely my best bet for biology. Lectures were long but bearable. As long as you complete the labs and extra credit modules and STUDY, this class is not too difficult.

Comment:

Dr. Yount is a great professor. As long as you participate and study the lectures (which are all posted online) you should be able to pass with an A or B. Material is difficult but the labs are the worst! Don't miss a lab or you will lose out on a lot of points. ALOT of labs with essay questions. Nice curve on tests. Get a good lab partner!!

Comment:

I just finished Environmental Science Online, and I will say it was a lot of work and assignments. But if you do them well you will get an A. There is only one test which I failed and still ended with an A in the class. He gives a 7 day grace period for late assignments! I could get an entire assignment done in a couple hours no problem.

Comment:

He has his good moments but the devil was also once an angel. This guy knows what hes talking about; and he knows so much that is all comes out as the most complicated science talk ever. If youre willing to read chapters on chapters and actually comprehend everything take this class. If not failure is yours to take.

Comment:

Prof. Younts test are impossible to pass I studied for hours on every test and never got higher than a C. We started the class with 30 and ended with 9 because so many people had dropped it because he makes it impossible to pass. No extra credit given if you fail one test your screwed

He knows what he is teaching. He makes it easy to remember the hard stuff with everyday examples. Talks a lot and does not like to be interrupted. He is mostly in his office if not in class so he is easy to find and ask questions. Doesn't have a grade catagory on canvas which is annoying so you never know your grade.

He makes you work for it and you have to really know the material. He is hilarious and related concepts to everyday life. Do all of your labs on time and reference them because of practicals.

He is a great teacher. Really helps students understand anatomy. Study over his unit objectives and study after class at the models he has in class and you should be great. You're going to work hard but in the end he teaches very well.

Dr. Yount is an amazing teacher who knows what he is talking about. Tests are reasonable (if you studied) and you get an automatic 10% added to your tests. His lectures are very interesting, and he goes over all the material on exams.

Dr. Yount was probably one of my favorite professors. He taught me that good grades aren't just handed to you. If you want them, you gotta study and work for it. He always has a funny story to tell. He doesn't take any BS, which could be a good or bad thing. The labs are very involved and the tests can be tough. Get a good lab partner & study!

Great teacher, hard class. If you're taking this class, you obviously have to study. Study and complete each and EVERY objective and thoroughly go over each lab before test and you will be fine. Pay attention in class and take a week before each test to study. Flash cards and study groups. He gives 10% extra credit on each test. A is achievable.
