Reviews of professor Angeline Lyon

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Lyon is awesome!!! Yes homework and exams are graded harshly but her office hours are a must. She is always willing to help you and is open to all questions (even if they aren't directly about her course). Material is tough and a lot to learn so requires quite a bit of studying

This is a hard class that requires a lot of outside work and memorization. Dr. Lyon's lectures are okay, but she goes pretty fast since she has to cover a lot of material. The grading on homework and exams doesn't seem to be standardized. The quizzes are difficult and require nitpicky details from lectures, and the exams cover a broad range of info

Dr.Lyon is very caring/positive, but her class is the worst it made me cry sm :( Her homeworks/quizzes were graded harshly but she did offer some extra credit. Make sure you review EVERY slide before an exam and take the practice test. Always write your exams in pen bc you can def get points back! She curves well, went from C- to C+.

I really liked her. I wish I would have gone to her office hours more. The exams seem reasonable and I feel like I learned the material well. I would recommend her to everyone. Lots of cool information, but lots of boring stuff (like buffers). Overall, I really liked the class and her! I would say take it!

Hard but fair. Homework, quizzes, and exams are all difficult, but not so difficult that it feels unfair. Lots of memorization. Lectures are info dense but helpful. Final exam was brutal. Gave some extra credit near the end of the semester.

Honestly, the most difficult part of this class is the unnecessarily robust memorization. Dr. Lyon is an alright lecturer, and the content is organized well, but if you don't prepare for quizzes it will screw you over (they're all memorization). TAs are ridiculously hard graders for some reason, so you generally have to be perfect.

Her Biochem 339 class has been the worst class that I've taken so far in college. It is wholly and completely unfair in the amount of information you need to know for quizzes and exams.

Dr. Lyon is an amazing lecturer who keeps the material interesting & uses real world examples. Sadly, the homework and tests are crazy. She said in her last office hour that "we the graders only skim for key words". Use her exact words on everything & write as much as possible. She will test you on all the tiny details, so memorize them.

Highly relevant to the MCAT. The course is becoming reasonable year by year. Highly recommend it for any pre-health majors preparing for the bar exam.

Very hard class. A lot of memorization. Should have exams more multiple choice heavy than basically all open response. Could have done better given more practice problems.
