Reviews of professor Robert Jadin

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
His lectures are easy to follow, which can make them boring at times, but he typically includes videos or extra info that makes the topics more interesting. The exams are easy if you study his slides and pay attention in class. It helps to read the textbook before lectures, but you would probably still be fine if you didn't read at all.

He loves snakes and talks about them often. He is a super boring lecturer so I end up playing solitaire on my laptop most of the time and copying the notes down later. His tests are pretty hard so make sure you actually take notes at some point or read through the powerpoint. We have had very little homework and what we did have was really easy.

Pretty easy class if you listen during lectures and study for exams. Exams are all multiple choice and "big picture". Sometimes he has you recall specific stuff, but not often. Instead of making you hand-write notes, he made PDFs of the slides with extra room to write so you could take notes that way, which I found super helpful. Funny guy too!

he is obsessed with snakes and you can get him to go off on tangents about them. he seems like a great guy but when he lectures he is incredibly boring. moves through the slides very quickly so i just skip class and copy them off of d2l in my room.

Professor Jadin is not the best professor when it came to taking this class. He was knowledgeable about the subject, but the material was way too hard for it being a 100 level course. I took this because it was required for my major and I would recommend taking it with any other professor possible.

Great guy. Biology is generally hard, but his lectures make it even harder. Find ways to study other than his slides. When he says the tests are "the big picture" its straight in-depth

Dr. Jadin is passionate about his area of study and gets you excited about the material as well. He is approachable and easy to talk to, and is humorous during lecture while really making you think about the material. He believes in scientific papers rather than textbooks, and class discussions!

Very boring lectures, lectures feel pointless, obsessed with snakes, strongly believes in evolution

Dr. Jadin is really nice and has a lot of patience when it comes to answering questions and helping people, especially in such a big lecture. He moves really fast and reads right off of the slides so I usually just go and listen and take notes later. Tests are challenging because you're supposed to "apply" what you learned, but he doesn't say how.
