Reviews of professor Carley Knutsen

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
You can tell she really enjoys biology and teaching. Read the book and you should have zero problems with the tests. Homework is straightforward and from the book. Labs are very easy to follow. Nothing should come as a surprise. If you just talk to her about what you have going on she can be very accommodating. Should have no trouble in her class.

This class was challenging; lectures were hard to follow as she was very unsure of herself. What was on the test wasn't really what she said to study; tests are closed books and proctored. Was not always responsive; there was a time that I had emailed four times without hearing back. Class average for exams were never over 68%

She is honestly super sweet and as long was you watch her lecture videos and take notes it's not too hard to pass. She also gives the option of a page of notes for exams which I really appreciated. Maybe I just like her teaching style but I truly feel like I learned a lot from her.

Carley is a new teacher and it shows. She told us what to know for the exams but when we got the exam, the stuff she said to study wasn't on it. One student asked her if we could get a review for the next exam and she said no, because I want you guys to know everything. This was a summer course. Expecting us to know everything is unrealistic.

I absolutely loved her! She was so sweet and understanding and honestly made our class so enjoyable. Anytime someone would ask a question she almost always knew the answer and if she didn't, she'd look into it. She cared a lot about our class and that made going to class actually quite fun. This class is lecture heavy, but study and you're good!
