Reviews of professor Urbi Ghosh

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I found Professor Ghosh's online lectures to be both clear and engaging, and I was able to learn a lot from them. She made the biology course truly worth taking. Whenever I had questions, I would email her and she would provide helpful responses.

Dr. Ghosh is an excellent instructor who is organized, fair, and provides clear expectations for students. The course was well-structured and the lectures were engaging. The professor was always available to answer questions and provided helpful feedback on assignments. Felt like I got what I put into the course, and I learned a lot about biology.

I have the highest regard for her as a teacher, and I would strongly suggest her to anyone who might take this class in the future. She uses a free textbook, has online lectures, and you get what you put into the course.

Professor Ghosh made biology an exciting course over the duration of the summer. While the work is hard, she is more than fair in her grading of assignments. In other words, you should expect your grades to reflect your level of work.

This professor does not understand work/life balance. The empathy for her students is not there nor does she make an effort to be empathetic. Her quizzes and tests have multiple grammatical errors, so if you struggle with English, she will make you struggle even more. All the links she provides for labs always are either incorrect or have issues.

This class does give a lot of work, but once you get a routine down, it's easier to manage. I would say the first couple of weeks are difficult and then the workload starts becoming lighter. If you follow all the directions given, she grades easily.

If you want to take a bio class specially in summer, please don't take this professor! I decided to take her class because of the reviews on this site but I don't know why people would lie or maybe she's different know because I had a terrible experience. She didn't make the subject any easier and gave bizarre assignments. I don't recommend!

Please do yourselves a favor and do not take her class! Just the syllabus was about 20 pages which sure- it can be normal.. but first day of class and she's already drowning you in work! You have to log into Moodle 5 days a week + read over 50 pages+slides a week. Also about 4-5 HW assignments a week. She was a nice lady but the work is too much.

The biology course is completely online. The textbook is free and the so is the lab manual. She really knows her biology, gives really good feedback, and grades fast. She does give extensions rarely but with a doctor's note. She does tell you in the syllabus that is a requirement for extensions. The excuses need to legit.
