I personally enjoyed her creative short-answer style exams a lot as well. It is very rewarding class and has been my favorite class by far this semester. Professor Machunis-Masuoka A survey course on Microorganisms. Although Prof. M has been through a lot this semester, she's still great and hers is one of the lectures I would not miss for the world. She takes everything from her lectures, nothing from the book for her exams.
Exams are short answer.
Tough exams, but she scales down. I really appreciated this esp. She's also very congenial 1 to 1 although she may seem intimidating in lecture. It's one of those highlight courses during the semester. This is a wonderful class.
