Dr. Petrov is the BEST!! He made Cell Bio interesting and understandable. The only grades are exams but you have the opportunity to get bonus on each one (just memorize the steps of mechanisms). Bonus offered at the end of the semester, it is tedious but you should definitely do it because it will help your grade so much! Go to class!

Dr. Petrov is a nice man who is very intelligent. The language barrier makes it a little difficult to understand his lectures. His tests are pretty hard considering it is a mix of questions (fill in the blank, matching, drawing, mult choice etc.) He does give plenty of extra credit to help boost your grade.

I wasnt a fan of Dr. Petrov. He was really hard to understand because of his accent which is fine if he put all the info. on his slides but he didnt. I felt like I would miss parts of the material because I couldnt understand him. Also, when I went to see him in office hours, he was kind of condescending. Id say avoid him.

Honestly, too much material and not enough time to learn all of it. He really needs to narrow it down or you have to study after every lecture. He wasnt a bad person, but his test are hard and the material is massive.

Dr. Petrov is one of the best professors in biological sciences. Hes extremely intelligent and knows the material inside and out. His lecture slides are pretty bland, so going to class and taking notes/recording his lectures are really important. He is also really caring and truly wants his students to understand the material and do well.

Dr. Petrov is great and VERY excited by the material he teaches. He lets you exempt the final if you have a 95+ average in the class, and all of his home works and tests a like 120% is possible if you really know your stuff. His tests are long answer, short answer, fill in the black, T/F and multiple choice with a drawing section. 10/10 love him
