Comment:

If you're not a bio major, do not take her! Lab quizzes are twice a week, all with proctorio. If she forgets there's a holiday, get ready to do 3 labs, 2 quizzes and 1 exam on the same day. She says she won't test lab material on the lecture and vice-versa but she does not follow that. She's been teaching for 20+ years so perhaps she got tired.

DONT TAKE HER! In her online class she gave 20 secs to answer each question, 90 questions in 40 min. Not flexible, I studied on average 35-40 hours a week and I got a B in the class

Comment:

Content isn't difficult to understand. It just involves LOTS of memorisation. If you're skilled in that, this class will go smoothly. Don't take this class if you're not willing to put in the work. Good test grades are extremely important. It's clear what will be on tests; studying is straight forward. Labs can be a bit tedious but not too bad.

Tough but nice professor. Study a lot for her exams, need weeks of preparation. Class is memorization basically. Didn't offer much EC w/ online transition. Don't take other hard classes w/ this 1. 4 exams, 2 lab exams, 1 presentation, online hw (easy), 1 final. Read the book and do many flashcards. Ask for help if needed, she notices your effort.

Comment:

Professor Green has been a real gem during this pandemic. She is very knowledgeable of the topic, but it is very hard even though she makes it easier to understand. Labster has been used for labs, and now for the next 2 years she will be the biology chair. Take her especially if you're a bio major.

Comment:

Genetics as an online class isn't easy, but Dr. Green-Marroquin is very organized and available. All the homework was on MasteringGenetics and they're easy points to rack up. Quizzes are useful to understand her question style. Her lecture are pre-recorded, but they weren't enough to do exceptionally well on exams (use the book).

I have nothing but good words for Dr. Green. Shes an amazing professor. Bio 7 is not an easy subject, but she makes sure you understand it. Reading the textbook is a MUST! Online transition was tough for everyone, but she was always available even when remotely. Recorded lectures are gold! Flash cards are your best friend in this class.

Comment:

If you just memorize all the notes taken during lecture your guaranteed an A. She may seem intimidating at first but she is actually nice once you get to be in her class. Her exams are exactly like her lecture notes. If you write everything down thats in red in her powerpoint you can get an A.

Comment:

I took Professor Green for a hybrid class. The videos (lectures) are filled with a lot of info, but she highlights in red what you need to study. Don't get me wrong, it's A LOT but it is more than doable. She makes you work for an A, but if you put in the time and effort you can definitely get it. You have a quiz every lab period based on the labs

(1/2) Dr. Green is passionate and caring! She wants EVERYONE to succeed but she can only do so much for her students. Lec. is straightforward- know the stuff in red like your ABCs. Dont cram before exams you will start mixing things up. Very info. dense class, but that bio for you! 5 exams including final- very doable but you need to invest time!

This class takes a lot of time and effort to get an A. It's super memorization and test heavy. Fair class. She tells you exactly what is going to be on the tests, and gives opportunities for extra credit.

Comment:

She is absolutely my favorite. She tells you EXACTLY what will be on her tests and what to study. If you don't do well it is truly on you. I had her for her hybrid class so she had videotaped lectures on canvas that you needed to keep up with. The labs were fair and fun. You learn useless info in this class but she finds a way to make it fun. TAKE

Doctor Green-Marroquin is a solid professor. I took her for Bio 3 and got a B in the class. Homework is online and it costs about $60 to access the textbook. It is a very fast paced lecture and test heavy class but shes very funny and interesting to listen to. Make sure you study or else you wont pass. Id recommend taking her.

Took bio 7 with her in spring and I loved it! Shes literally the best. If you get a B, C or lower its your fault. She tells you whats on the tests. You literally have to try to fail the class. Its a lot of info but its so interesting. Tests 1,2 were easy, test 3 was hard. Its all doable if you watch all the videos before class starts!

I took her Sp18 Bio6. It was a tough semester. I got a A though. There were 3 exams. If you study her lectures, you will pass. If you want an A, memorize everything. Finals was not cumulative but there were 6-7 ch, so still a lot. 1 project and 1 extra credit/volunteer. Project was a 7+ pg research. Treat your lab notebook like a professional.

Start preparing for your lab midterm the first class. on the lab midterm we had things like naming microscope parts, cell parts, the phylum of certain species, etc but the more difficult thing was the life cycles, pay attention to those. also make flash cards of the species and include their taxonomy because thats important too.

tests 1-2 are ok. Test 3 is a lot of info. have nothing better to do? you can watch all her videos in one week. Overall if you put in hours itll pay off. I studied around 30-40 per test. And for gods sake write down as much info when she talks during lec about labs. And always draw ur pictures. Overall great prof. Wanna take hr for bio 6

Comment:

Despite what people say Dr. Green is a good professor. She is however very strict. Labs are due at the beginning of class and she will take off points if you are late. The tests are taken from the lecture slides, study those and the test will be a breeze. Quizlet will be your best friend for the labs *hint hint*. Don't take if you need an easy A
