Reviews of professor Kavita Manhas

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Incredibly difficult class. VERY lecture and memorization heavy. You won't know your standing in the class until the grades are officially out at the end of the semester because the exams are difficult (around 60 free response questions). Interesting class/topic, but too much information and little time for it. Tip: memorize all the famous people!

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
The lectures are packed with information but it helps to print the notes before class, read the book and record the lectures. The review sessions held by the TA are very helpful and provide study guides! While it is a hard subject, Dr. Manhas cares and will take time to help you understand the material, you just have to ask. Great class, loved it.

4 tests , 1 is dropped. Final is not optional, alot of material and grade is only tests. Tests are 50-60 questions free response not curved individually but curved over all.

Class is 4 tests, 1 dropped test. The lectures are fast paced, often breezing over important concepts. I was really interested in this class before but after taking it with Kavita, I don't have the same interest in immunology. It was pretty sad.

Difficult class to begin with but made more difficult with a confusing teacher. Sudy guides only given during the review sessions. If you have a class during that time she will not give you the packet. Guess she wants you to miss your other classes. Must memorize famous immunology people! Read the book and look things up online, it helps

She's a great lecturer! Also be sure to go to office hours, she's incredibly helpful and clearly cares about her students! Immunology is difficult, but an A is possible if you put the work in! To do well in this course, I would recommend recording lectures, and taking a few hours after each lecture to take diligent notes from those recordings.

Lectures didn't make any sense, get ready to learn on your own.
