Chill lab prof, grades reports a little harshly
positive
- LeniencyNo
Good prof in my opinion! He's chill—like do the floss in class when there's nothing to do kind of chill. He'll walk around during lab just to see what everyone's up to, make some comments, or just sit around and scroll on his phone for a bit if he's not needed. He's very easy to go up to and talk to, so don't be afraid to ask about anything. He grades lab reports a little harshly, but he gives good feedback on how you can improve. It's just up to you and your groupmates to manage your time wisely to incorporate everything he expects and make a solid paper. He's a good lab prof, he demonstrates what you need to do technically, though he prefers if you read the lab experiment prior to coming in, especially for the calculations. In the nature of microbio, he'll expect you to come into lab outside of class hours to check on your cultures, or disinfect your glassware. He expects proper aeseptic technique and sanitation, so be sure to wash your hands and sanitize your station often, he's pretty particular about that. If you become beadle, expect him to be kind of vague and quick about his emails. He's quirky like that /hj Overall, as an BS ES major, he made me enjoy the subject and most of the labwork. But that's just me, I already have some interest in microbiology. I've heard from others that he doesn't do much to really foster a persistent love for the subject in you. Just know that if you do end up with him, you'll do great as long as you take the subject seriously, be proactive, and think critically.more

The written practical was an online asynchronous paper with some guide questions on the first few topics of the course, he gave a pretty generous deadline and relatively easy questions. You were allowed to ask him or peers to better understand the topics if you needed some help, but asking them to solve the guide questions themselves wasn't allowed. The practical exam was also easy to ace. We performed innoculation and aseptic techniques without the actual cultures (we just used water in place of bacterial cultures, saline, broth, and agar), but it's important to pretend and do the practical as if you had the real media. He was verrryyy particular again about preserving the sterility, so pay attention whenever he mentions that during lessons.more

we had 10 questions, they're just meant to test your understanding of the basic concepts and theory of the experiments, they weren't too hard! There was no word count/limit but as long as you were concise and included everything necessary, so your answer could technically be like two sentences as long as it included all the important points.more
