Reviews of professor Jake Warner

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I took BIO439 - stem cell bio - with dr. warner and he is one of my favorite professors ive ever had! lectures are super light and straight forward. class was super interesting and the exams were very easy - he prepares you well for them. class average was always super high. he gives problem set study guides before exams too which is helpful.

He seems like a genuinely caring guy but I don't recommend this class. His tests are not open note and they are extremely difficult. They are often fill in the blank and short answer questions. Not many of the questions are multiple choice. He's extremely unorganized and shows up late to class a lot. He will not respond to emails.

Dr. Jake makes class interesting. He is lecture heavy, but I mean if you watch the lectures and take the quizzes you'll understand the exam. He keeps the exam open for 3-4 days and its always open notes. He is willing to answer any questions and in his online course he keeps his lectures under 45 minutes. 10/10 my favorite teacher. Go make an A.

I. He is late to class almost everyday and comes unprepared II. He doodles on a PowerPoint slide the entire lecture III. He forgot to unlock the door and multiple students missed a quiz because of this. We couldn't retake it. IV. Changed requirements for a project worth 20% of our 3 days before it was due

Attendance is not mandatory but the slides are lacking information, he fills them in during class. This class is really difficult to study for since he provides minimal resources. he also does not seem to respond to emails. The only grades are exams so one bad grade and you already cant get an A. It just seems like he doesn't have time for his job.
