Reviews of professor Alice Kleinhuizen

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I took the online version. The class structure is the same every week. No surprises when you have to turn items in and she gives grades and feedback quickly. Keep up with the reading and lag attention to the homework and this class is easy.

The study guides she gives provide no path for what will or will not be on the exam. I had over 100 flashcards for a 50-question exam and had to know all info. She expects you to dedicate all time to biology even though its non-majors. She'll ask you to describe your answers in your own words and then takes off points if it isnt just like the book.

Not a bad prof, but very strict when it comes to grading. You really have to make sure you're putting down the right answer, otherwise you will be highly crtiqued. Put in the extra effort, and she will see it and grade accordingly. Same weekly schedule of assignments, except for exam week(s). This was easier than BSC114. Leave room for GPA cushion.

Assignments were due on a consistent schedule so no surprises. Her grading for certain assignments was very harsh (takes off percentage of a point for missing tiny details). She would give helpful feedback on missed short answer questions though. The exams were near impossible to pass even after studying for hours.

I dropped this class almost instantly. She assigns an insane amount of work and grades harshly without providing feedback on what you did wrong. Trust me, do not take her. Even if shes your only option, wait until she isnt. I cannot stress enough how much anxiety her class gave me.

You have a week to do the homework but its a lot for a non majors class. The short answer assignment she grades pretty harsh if you don't have the exact words. To do well on the tests you really have to watch the lecture videos and memorize the little things.

Pretty nice lady but man this class stinks. Homework, Labs, and packback every week and takes about 3 hours. The test are near impossible. I studied 8 hours at least for each exam and made two 75's and an 86 which makes it nearly impossible to get an A since she grades homework and labs hard. I thought online would be better, but stick to in class.

I loved this course. Yes, it is a lot of work but it is a 4 credit class so it's understandable. All the work did help me on the tests and she did provide a study guide for exams. You can tell she is knowledgable about biology. Highly recommend her.
