Reviews of professor Leslie Cizmas

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
LOVE HER! I found this course to be very easy. Make sure to attend class bc she does polls. 4 tests and 5 quizzes. If you look over the slides/study with quizlet, you should do fine on the exams and quizzes (did that and made As on every exam/quiz). The quiz questions will sometimes be on exams (go to office hours to get answers missed).

Very nice professor, you can tell she really cares about the students and is very easy to talk to outside of class. There is no final, but the final grade is 75% based on exams. The attendance is mandatory, but I don't mind. The  lectures and slides are easy to understand.

As someone who has always struggled with bio, I did well in her class. Lectures can be bland but she gives you all the information you need and is very kind. Tests are straightforward. Strict on grading curves, but sometimes gives extra credit questions on tests. One test I got 7 bonus points from extra questions. Pay attention and you'll make an A

Tests (4) are 75% of grade, Quizzes 5%, and Participation 10%! Lectures are quite heavy with information similar to BIOL112. Though units are broken down there is a lot of information covered in each. You must study and KNOW the material on her slides to do well on the exams. I liked that there was no final exam. I recommend Quizlet to study.

The class consists of 4 exams and a quiz before each exam. The quizzes are lockdown browser but still pretty easy. Lecture is pretty boring, but there is attendance so go to class. The exams are very easy and are true or false questions. I would recommend taking her and it was an easy A.

Prof Cizmas was honestly one of the best professors I have ever had! She is super caring and listens to the feedback from students after tests/quizzes and makes adjustments accordingly. If you just attend lectures and pay attention all you have to do is re-read the slides to make an A on the tests! Trust me you'll love her!

She is incredibly sweet and a willing to accept feedback easily. Very thorough in her lectures and respectful to her students. She does expect you to be engaged but does not call on anyone unwillingly.

Professor Cizmas is super sweet!! The class has no homework and consists of attendance, quizzes, and exams.  Just study right from her slides and it should be an easy A!

Dr. Cizmas is very monotone and doesn't do much to spruce her lectures up. Her question format for exams is designed to confuse her students. She does a lot of trick questions on quizzes and exams, and she even confuses herself sometimes. Also would not round my 89 to an A. Shes not the worst but I would look into taking someone else if you can.
