Reviews of professor Laura Firmani

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
With the summer classes, get ready to hit the ground running. Dr Firmani gives you the tools to be successful in her class. However it is on you to do the work. She is always there on time, she is also always there for help after, if needed. She is very understanding and really cares about her students. I would highly recommend Dr Firmani.

Great professor! This was my first biology course and I really enjoyed it. Because of this class I decided to take another biology course. Dr. Firmani explains concepts well and is always open to going over topics if you don't really understand it. If you study for exams you will do fine.

One of the best professors. Takes her time to make sure you understand the topics. All lectures are recorded and and uploads the notes and study guides. If you rely on those to study from you will pass every test. Labs are super easy. Homework gets done fast.

Prof. Firmani is awesome, really makes sure you learn with all the materials she gives you. I took Bio105 as a hybrid course, HIGHLY suggest you print out all of the notes and study packets to put into a binder, super helpful. It's a tough class, as any bio class is, but you need to dedicate a lot of time.

She's pretty caring and compassionate but I do agree with her unrealistic work load. Especially after Covid. Her lectures are pretty easy to follow but it's pretty unproductive to have to set up a meeting with her just to "go over" assignment results. She isn't horrible but I've had other professors that try to make it easy.. easier then her.

Dr. Firmani is an incredible professor. As I took her hybrid course, lectures were pre-recorded. They were extremely insightful and her explanations were sometimes more important than what was typed in the slideshow. She gives a review packet that is due before each exam. Study this (hard) and rewatch her lectures and you will do fine!

Professor Firmani was great! This was an accelerated summer class and she did her best to make sure we succeeded. She is caring and you can tell she truly loves and enjoys what she does. Keep up the good work professor Firmani!!!

Professor Firmani was an great professor! I learned so much from her course! She gives a clear syllabus and weekly announcements so you know exactly what to do. Study for exams and you'll do fine.

Dr. Firmani is hands down one of the
best professors I've ever had. She goes
above and beyond to make sure all of
her students understand the material to
successfully complete the course. She
is very transparent and more than fair
with her grading system. It is clear that
she loves her job and wants nothing but
the best for her students!
