Reviews of professor Sandhya Boyapalle

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
I learnt a lot from this class. Its lot of hard work on part of the students. At home practice quizzes and most importantly review sessions helped in keeping up with an A grade. Concepts are hard but the Professor made it easy to understand with detailed presentations. Those who like to face challenges it is a very interesting subject.

I've taken every major science class getting ready for PA school and this is the worst class I've ever taken. I've actually read multiple genetics books, was excited about taking this class, but this class was a total let down. The homework has nothing to do with the tests (which are 85% of the grade). Good luck staying awake!

Amazing lectures designed for the online class. Heard very good things about Dr. Boyapalle's in-class teaching. So took her course. Online class was not as comfortable but the Professor made the leatures easy to follow. Supplememntary info was great. Enjoyed the class. I would retake the professor.

Great power points and the homework assignments take time but they are 5% of the total grade which is not bad. Attend review sessions and don't skip classes. She emphasizes important topics and focus points in the class and the review sessions. There is lot of reading folks!

She is a very sweet lady and is super nice and helpful if you go to her office hours (highly recommend). This was her first time teaching a large genetics class, so you could tell that she was nervous. You have 4 exams and final. She drops the lowest exam. Homework heavy (but easy) and clickers everyday. Exams were difficult. So study ahead of time

Took this course online over the summer. 3 block exams, a quiz each week all which are proctored so be ready to study. Powerpoints were helpful but this class does require a bit of time studying & understanding the concepts as it continues to build throughout the course. Very knowledgeable professor and I learned a lot through this course.

Very interesting lectures with the focus on current biomedical research. Highly recommend her. Exams are easy and an easy A.

H er accent was REALLY hard to understand. Her lectures are boring. Your grade is 85% tests, 5% hw, 10% attendance. IT SUCKED. I had to drop, and I've never had to do that before. Her tests are 30 questions and HARD. Unless you really care about this subject and are good at bio 1 & 2, it's really difficult. She was 30 min late to office hours too!

If you skip classes and review sessions its not an easy A.
