Reviews of professor Cristina Zavaleta

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Zavaleta is an amazing professor who really cares about what she is teaching and her students. If you read the slides that are provided during lectures nothing on the tests comes as surprise. Lectures are long but only once a week. Overall her class is very interesting and gives a foundation on all types of biomedical imaging.

Took BME 427 (not BME 425) and she was great! Very enthusiastic about the content. The course moves quickly and is over after seven weeks, so you need to be on top of it at the start of the semester.

The lectures are super boring, going over bunch of slides which she basically reads from and watching some videos. The grading criteria for the class is pretty vague and it is not very clear how to study for the class. you will have two homework and bunch of presentations, midterm and final. You can bring cheat sheets, but be very thorough.

Good professor, very informative and cares about what she is teaching. Although, very boring. impossible to focus for 3 hours, when it is just straight lecture. Midterm is straight from the slides can bring cheat sheet. Would take again if this class was offered 3 days a week for 50 minutes each day. 3 hour class, not the move.
