Reviews of professor Allison McDonald

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
This course is awesome and Dr. McDonald is hands down one of the best bio profs at Laurier! She is very passionate about science and that is evident in the content she teaches. You are given the option of either taking a cumulative test or a group research presentation, which is great! Also had her for plant phys and got the same mark.

Does not give good feedback, takes days to respond to emails (3-5 business days, and sometimes not at all), she will tell you one thing is right and her TAs will tell you its wrong and take off marks for something you were told was right. Never had a prof take so long to give back grades. The course could be taught better by a high school teacher..

Listen. She seems like a nice professor, but this course is disappointing. Not really worth the tuition money. She uploads 20 minutes of lecture material for a 50 minute class period. Very simple stuff and is picky marking personal reflections. I will give her points for catering to student wellbeing during the pandemic by lightening the workload.
