Reviews of professor Jordan Yorgason

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
All the content is on the slides, which make a lot more sense when you attend the lectures. But his lectures are not very engaging. Reasonable grading, he would drop questions from the test if it seemed like most people didn't get it. He changed an A from a 95 to a 93 halfway through the semester. Nice guy.

Professor Yorgason is definitely one of the best professors I've ever had. The class is difficult, but he is the best teacher and such a help. I've seen over and over again that he cares more about the student than the grade or anything else. Take any class from him!!!!

Great class with a great professor. Dr. Yorgason gives more resources (preclass quizzes and review slides) that help you to direct you study to things that are on the test. the homework is easy because the TA will help to make sure you understand concepts aren't guessing on anything. If you can, take this class from Jordan, his class does best.

Jordan is super nice and wants to help students succeed. Hes new to teaching but willing to throw out bad questions or admit when he doesnt know the answer. He makes difficult concepts concise and understandable. There are a lot of group projects which I didnt love but otherwise its a great class. He made a tough class enjoyable.

Cell Bio is a lot of work. There is a lot of readings and staying on top of the lectures is a must. that being said, Dr. Yorgason is an amazing professor and offers great feedback and does a great job in answering questions.

Dr. Jordan makes lectures engaging and he definitely cares about his students. Cell biology is no joke, so the class is hard no matter what. There's a lot of writing required for the class and the homework is much harder than the tests.

Professor Yorgason was a pretty solid professor. There was a lot of material and terms to know so get ready to memorize. There was a lot of group work that helped you apply what you were learning. Class was set up to retain information better. Pre-class quiz, lecture, group work, individual work, and tests. He dropped low accuracy test questions.

This class was really great! Very interesting, but it is very dense. His slides cover everything you need to know and he has notes on each slide in the presenter box that pretty much reiterates everything that he said. Midterms are pretty much straight from slide material. You do work in groups for research paper break down, but it's a great course

Jordan (he asks us to call him by his first name) is FANTASTIC. I've taken multiple classes from him. He teaches you how to approach a problem and how to read a scientific paper for understanding. He is a great example of high love, high expectations. He is not afraid of challenging you but the class is completely doable. Would highly recommend!
