Reviews of professor Jordan Ward

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Jordan is an awesome, caring professor teaching a very interesting subject. The lectures can get pretty confusing sometimes, but Jordan usually gives time for many questions for the students to ask. Tests are pretty straight forward with a lenient grading system and as long as you try in this class, you will likely do well.

Ward was an okay Professor. I believe this was his first time teaching Molec Bio or any class but he has a passion for it. However, he would go on tangents in class a lot and I feel we wouldnt learn as much. Not to mention that the in-class activities we did werent very productive and his tests were extremely difficult. MSI and SGT helps a lot!

prof ward was super cool and provided a lot of resources in preparation for tests. hw and occasional in class activities were very helpful for understanding material. he responded to emails in a timely manner (in my experience). the content was tricky, but he was transparent in what he wanted u to know for tests and on what needed to be studied.

Overall a well put together class and lectures. Everything was accessible through canvas which made in person lectures easier to follow and he was open to any questions after class or during OH. The only thing I wish was different was his handwriting on the slides made things difficult to read sometimes, but that wasn't a huge issue.

This professor seems like a very nice guy, and going to discussion sections makes this class way easier to understand. I find his lectures difficult to understand though, and you have to just sit and absorb a lot of complex content. Given that, he does provide INSANELY good preparation for the midterm; utilize everything he gives you.
