Reviews of professor Svetlana Radyuk

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
She's very nice and while she can sometimes grade strictly, you can earn points back if you redo your work. Her accent makes her hard to understand at times, but she provides you with a lot of material to help. This is a good lab course and covers a broad range of topics that are relevant to medical school in particular. Take this with the lecture!

Took both lab and lecture. She is amazing. Exams are open book and if you read the book before the exam week, you will do good. Lab was easy, fun, and we learned a lot. She does have accent but if you read the book, you will be able to learn everything.

Dr. Radyuk's class is interesting and she's nice, but she's difficult to understand at times. Tests are open note, but all of the questions are "select all that apply". Reading the textbook to understand the details behind general concepts was useful. You can see exam answers right after you finish, so there was a lot of cheating going on.

A very nice person, but a terrible professor. It's clear she is very knowledgable but as far as explaining concepts to students, a terrible teacher. Textbook is the only way you'll actually understand the material.

If you're a bio major who needs an upper level bio class, take this class. If you go to class she gives extra credit assignments. Each assignment adds 2 points to each test so you can get up to 10 extra credit points per test. Tests are open note, open book, and not on lock down (so you can search the internet too).
