as of 2023: mastering biology is really helpful. read/skim the textbook before she goes over notes; lectures are super fast and not super helpful. pay attention to the class slides/notes; save yourself some time and don't read sections that are skipped (especially in the end of the year; we usually skip a lot of sections). tests are a really big deal. make sure youre good at graph analysis has a lot of group work so make sure you have your group members' contact info in case someone is slacking

Memorization is key to this class, if you’re not good at it, I recommend you drop. Tests are crazy hard and often focus on details you thought you wouldn’t need. STUDY.

She’s really chill and flexible. Willing to make exceptions for kids.
