Reviews of professor Cherie Bond

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
So she's a bit intimidating and she scared most of the class for her exam about how just memorizing wasn't going to be enough, but turns out the exam was almost entirely based off her slides -- so if you study what she tells you to and know the stuff off the slides, the exam will be pretty easy.

Exams are long, but easy if you study the powerpoint slides. There is a project at the end of the semester. Pick a good group, and you should be fine. Lots of in class worksheets that cannot be made up. Bond can be hard to deal with personality-wise at first, but you get used to what she expects.

She expects you to have biochemistry knowledge and will test you on it regardless of her skimming over the material in class. She takes at least a week to teach punnet squares but will expect you to understand complex molecular biology terms even though you haven't been taught it before. Acts like a high school teacher, I wouldn't recommend her!

Dr. bond's segment of was a lot more content than any other section- she really overloaded it. The test wasnt horrible if you memorized her slides, and she told you which ones to study. She gives optional worksheets that didnt really help because she doesnt post answers, but her study guide was true to the test. she is pretty rude at office hours.

The class was relatively easy if you did the work. if you want the A take her. Deep down somewhere in her heart she cares, BUT listen to the reviews she's incrediblyyyyy rude for absolutely no reason. Someone needs to really check her. Ive seen her bash students for asking simple questions.

Dr. Bond taught the genetics unit and she was amazing! Her test was pretty much her lecture slides, but she does put some trick questions. She deeply cares about her students and provides study guide and practice questions to prepare for the exam. I wish she taught the entire class!

Dr. Bond is so unique. Some people might think shes mean, but I admired her enthusiasm. Lots of homework, but it makes a useful grade buffer. Exams are tough. Shouldnt be hard to get an A if you put in effort! Shes strict about students attending class. If you go to her office, dont have anywhere you need to be! You might end up chatting for hours!

She's not a bad lecturer, but she is possibly the most condescending academic professional that I have ever encountered. I wouldn't say that her exam was difficult as it was a replica of her slides (even though she tried to scare us that memorizing would cause us to fail-> not true). Just memorize her slides.

Easy exams, studied directly from the lecture slides. Lot's of homework, but answers are generally accessible online. Group project can be fun. Grade breakdown makes exam failing non-detrimental.
