Reviews of professor Lisa Byrum

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Hands down the best college prof I've had in my 3 years so far. This woman is brilliant, can answer pretty much any question with great detail related to the field. She cares about her students and knows how to keep them engaged. Pathophys was a really difficult class but if you go to class and spend time studying you'll be fine

This semester, something seemed off. YouTube videos were played during class and lectures did not take up the whole 1 hour and 15 minutes. Most days after week 3, we were out of class after 30-40 minutes. She is easy to access via email. There were 10 quizzes and some weeks were quizzes over material from 2-3 weeks ago. Scheduling was just off.

This class is really hard but don't be fooled- Dr. B is the BEST! She knows how to keep her students engaged and gives extra credit on the tests. More like a friend than a prof, I would take this class over and over again.

This class was kinda stressful. The only thing we were being graded on was 2 quizzes every Sunday, so if you constantly fail these quizzes, you're done. Her lectures were confusing and the PowerPoints could only do so much. It's really a 50/50 on this class either you pass or fail. Study and ask questions.

Had this professor last year for 250, same thing grades are based on 2 quizzes every Sunday. Not too hard but can be confusing.

Out of my 4 years here at ODU, Dr. Byrum has been my absolute favorite professor BY FAR! Dr. B made me excited to come to class and I never wanted to skip. The lab portion of her class is an easy A and if you pay attention and study her powerpoints, you will do just fine on her lecture tests. I wish I could take her for every single class. Do it!!

Took Dr. Byrum for A&P II over the Summer. At first, it was really difficult & you could tell that she was not used to teaching under the new pressures that COVID-19 put on her as a professor, especially in an only 6 week & all online course. However, she really accommodated to us and helped us to succeed. I loved her & would strongly recommend!
