Reviews of professor Richard Conroy

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He is a very fair and present professor. All assignments were returned in a timely manor and relative feedback was always given. He responded quickly to emails and inquiries. His zoom office hours were very beneficial and gave insight on bioinformatics outside of the classroom setting (internships, jobs, etc.) Very eye opening and rewarding!

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Large amount of work required for discussion posts with no clear critera for an A grade. Grades for assignments were arbitrary (feedback didn't say where points were missed or why even though assignment requirements were all met). Seemed to expect students to have expert level knowledge but provided surface level course materials.

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor grades strictly and expects exact phrases and responses for credit in essay formats. If data is extrapolated from sources asks, "Where does this data come from"?
