I would recommend taking Dr. Ladwig for lecture. I had Dr. Lucas for lab and it was ok. However, her lab worksheets were difficult and confusing at times. She will usually write/draw notes on the board, make sure to copy those because they are usually answers to questions on the worksheet. Attendance is key in lab.

The 2.9 review of the professor just shows how biased this website is. Her class is a difficult class but not impossible to get a good grade on it. She makes her own exams which is tough, but she covers the material well in lectures and actually cares for the students.

Dr. Lucas understands that this is a Intro to Bio course and is great at explaining complicated concepts in easy to understand terms. Tests are almost always based off her slides so make sure you understand lecture, no need to read the textbook. There is a lot of info in each module so make sure to start studying early on before the test.

HER EXAMS ARE IMPOSSIBLE! Lectures are very bare bones and memorization but the exams are all conceptual. Our class average for the first exam grade was so low she didn't even share it with us. This class is VERY hard and Dr Lucas is very smart, but she didn't realize this until the last few weeks of the semester. Save yourself and take Kostman.

Dr. Lucas is an amazing person. I really enjoyed her lectures, they are very entertaining and informational. The class is hard and her tests are also very hard. They are all short answer and fill in the blank so be prepared. She is so funny though, and her corny jokes and enthusiasm is what the class needs. Just be prepared for the material.

Look, if yall want the truth about BIO 323, it is HARD. Especially, how she makes her own exams the day before and DOES NOT go base on the powerpoint. She puts it into her own work so you'll have to study hard for it or get into study groups. Also, she is VERY SPECIFIC and complex about her answers. One wrong word could hurt your grade.

She is funny and super nice. I did really well on her tests even without going to SI. Make sure you study and know the material well because it will help you.

Her teaching style did not match up with my learning style at all. She speeds through lectures, making it difficult to retain a thing. Be ready for LOTS of note taking and videos/quizzes/assignments. Tests are very difficult, none of the test material is from the notes.
