Reviews of professor Carolee Caffrey

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Really enjoyed Prof Caffreys Bio 100 class. Shes passionate about biology, makes the material interesting and related to real life. She wants the students to do well and learn the material. There are lots of opportunities for extra credit. Although the test are tricky, she covers the material in class and allows you to take it twice. Great class!

Prof. Caffrey is an amazing professor. She really cares about her students and wants them to succeed. If you attend the lectures, follow her outlines that she already makes for you, and study, then you'll do fine. Tests are multiple choice. There is a lot of lab homework, and a few writing assignments. EC opportunities. Office hours are so helpful.

She really loves what she does. Definitely a great teacher to have if you dont like Bio because she keeps it interesting. Very fair grading and great personality. You do need to pay attention and do the work to do well.

Dr. Caffrey is so passionate about biology and it shows. She wants you to do well and if you work hard and go to class you will do well. This class opened my eyes to a lot of issues and changed my life . Please take this class so you can make a difference in this world. She works hard to make sure we understand what shes teaching.

Disclaimer: this is during Covid-19. Computer literacy leaves something to be desired. Assignment instructions are unclear, lab regimen is futile, as her experiments demand a certain amount of standardization which just isnt available at home. Also, Prof C cant seem to keep politics out of class, which is distasteful.

She is very unorganized and changes things last minute. She is an extremely tough grader and knocks down points with no explaination or reasoning provided as to why. Take this is class if your Jimmy Neutron and have all the equipment to even attempt any of her labs.

Did not like this teacher at all. Always looking to take points off. Passionate but overly emotional. Does not hesitate to scream at students. Easy material to learn for BIOL 100 but again, she is just a difficult teacher to deal with. Many dropped form her class because of it. Do not buy the book, study off lecture notes and old tests.

Professor Caffrey gives out outlines for all her powerpoints. She gives out her old exams for students to study and she drops your lowest test grade. If you study your notes, outlines and the old exams you'll pass the exams. She does care about her students and will help them out to pass her class. If you need help she has office hours after class.
