Reviews of professor Jessica Haines

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
She goes through her lecture at a steady pace and its supper easy to follow. When ever i email her she answer my question with examples which help m,e understand the concept more. Her test isnt that hard. during her lecture she also write stuff on the board which is super easy to follow and take note

Nice prof, pretty average though. Her exams are all MC with a few fill-in the blanks. Easy exams as long as you study. She has required textbook readings for most chapters, just make sure you know the big ideas and you'll be fine. 2 midterms worth 15% each, final worth 20%, participation and assignments worth 5% each, lab worth 40%.

Haines was the worst biology prof I've ever had. She kept using her PHD research as an example whenever she had the opportunity, while other classes were using stronger examples that were better suited. She's a very tough and strict grader. The exams were nothing like her notes and lecture slides were always empty. I'll never take her again.

Her tests were quite difficult and didn't give you enough time. She gives easy participation marks and is all PowerPoint. She likes to bounce back and forth between ideas a lot, so it can be tricky to listen to her pre-recorded lectures. Reading the textbook helps a lot. This would be a teacher you would want to pick if the good ones are taken.

Her midterms and final are really straightforward as long as you study the material and take notes. She's sweet and caring too but her slides are always just pictures so if you don't watch her videos you won't understand anything.
