Reviews of professor Jennifer Koehl

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She gives exams on things you don't talk about in class. The questions are basically the smallest details that you won't study. No study guides are given for the exams only reviews that have nothing to do with the the exam, and you don't get exams back. She is a wonderful person but a lot of people are already failing this class.

Dr. Koehl makes the hardest class in the science department, fun! Its a tough class, but as long as you pay attention, youll do good. Show up, thats a key factor to passing.

Koehl makes lab fun. She helps each student who is struggling to the best of her ability. USE VISIBLE BODY! You only get lab for one day, so use Visible Body often, and youll do good. Review sessions are available usually on Sundays. Definitely take advantage of them if you are struggling with a certain topic.

BIO161 is a "weed" class, so it is going to be difficult no matter who you take, but Dr.Koehl made the class manageable. There are lots of weekly homework and attendance points that helped balance out the difficult exams. She gives good examples and explains things thoroughly. If you're struggling, she is always willing to help during office hours.

Her teaching style made her class confusing to me and I found that I had to teach myself a lot of the information. Her exams were continuous with the information in the lab handouts, and did a good job testing my complete understanding of the concepts. The most helpful thing you can do is to go to the lab reviews before each exam!

She nice and loves to answer questions. You get participation points every class.

You need to go to class and take tons of notes. Her lectures are hard to sit through sometimes because there is so much information but she is really funny and caring. If you miss a class you will be behind because she takes some information off of the in-class slides that you will need.

Most caring professor I've ever had but her exams have NOTHING to do with what you think will be on them. She does drop your lowest exam grade but this class is crazy hard.
