Very good professor. Some people struggled in the class, but if you read what you're supposed to and pay attention in class, you should have no problem. Was very helpful with test prep: posted powerpoints, study guides, practice tests, and had many office hours. Was always willing to help and her powerpoints were helpful during class.

She is very helpful and wants you to do very well...however, the class is quite challenging. You may think that you understand the info, but when you get to the test its like another language. She posts study guides and holds review sessions which helps alot. This class took up the majority of my study time and the class moves extreemly fast.

Class was difficult but really if you do the work you'll do fine! I got an A in the class and really did not have to work that hard, however you MUST study for the exams. If you study all the slides you'll do fine on the exams. It is common to feel like the tests were horrible right away but if you study you'll do fine!

Extremely challenging...the first two tests were brutal! She changed them after that since so many students were failing, so the following semesters tests will be a lot easier. I would recommend locking yourself in a white board room and teaching yourself everything and making yourself learn the processes w/o looking at your notes. Good luck!

Dr. B is so nice! She truly wants her students to succeed and is more than willing to meet with students who need a little extra help. She is not always consistent in the difficulty level of her tests so don't assume that since the first one wasn't bad the next will be the same. The exams aren't as impossible as they may seem as long as you study.

I really enjoyed this bio class. I had never taken biology before. EVeryone else seemed liek this was the class from hell. I barely went to class and just really focused on the textbook and got an A. But when i went to class it seemed like she knew what she was talking about. ppl just can't take a challenge. Id take her again!

Dr. B. is very clear about what she will put on her tests. It is very easy to get an A in her class if you strive for that particular grade. Studying persistantly, multiple times a week WILL get you that A grade on the test. She doesn't do cumulative tests, so you don't have to retain info throughout the semester. She's great!

Dr.B was really nice, and she was very clear about her expectations for the course. I thought the exams were straight forward and easy if you were prepared. The class requires that you read and understand each chapter, but as long as you keep up on that, study often, and pay attention to the powerpoints, getting an A is simple.

It sounds like Dr. B's teaching style has changed quite a bit for this semester. She is trying really hard to accomadate her students and I think she is doing a great job! Studying outside of class is mandatory to do well but she will answer any and all questions. The group test component is also great!

Dr. Beadles-Bohling really cares and does a great job answering questions. Her class is difficult and includes weekly pop quizzes so studying is a must. After exams we take a group exam that can only benefit your grade. I advise printing out the powerpoints she reviews in class to keep up since she goes through a lot of material quickly. Overall :)

Dr. B's class was my first real exposure to biology and she could not have taught it better. Her classes were structured very well and her lectures held my interest. The tests were difficult, but definitely manageable with thorough studying. I studied really hard for this class and ended up with an A.

Dr. B is awesome! She is incredibly helpful and is great at explaining topics until you completely understand it. You definitely have to work hard in her class but overall I would highly recommend her!

Sweet lady who really knows her subject well. I thought the class was really easy. She offers extra credit and the quizzes are easy to prep for. If you aren't into ppt, it probably isn't the class for you, but they prepare you for the tests. Need the textbook for access to online quizzes.

Dr. B is willing and wants to help you pass her class. She will gladly meet with you during office hours and will explain the concept in numerous ways until you understand. If you study and pay attention to her lectures, you will pass.

Dr. B is wonderful. Her class was pretty much completely lecture, but she crammed in a lot of valuable information and was always willing to explain more. She is often available for office hours and encourages students to come. There are one or two quizzes a week on the reading. It's tough material, but Dr. B teaches it well and wants to help.

I absolutely adore Dr. B. She is super helpful, and if you print out the powerpoints and attend workshop every week you are pretty much guaranteed at least a B. She makes things easy to understand in relate to.

Dr. B's great. The way she explained things helped clear up a lot of material I was confused about in AP Bio in high school. Print out her powerpoints, go to workshop, and pay attention in class and you'll be fine. Pretty easy A.

I hadn't taken biology since my freshman year, but it wasn't a problem. There is a bio workshop that is very helpful every week and you get extra credit for going. Textbook shouldn't really be used unless for clarification on something you don't understand. Mastering bio is mandatory (and kinda sucks), but it's helpful and occasionally on the test

Very good.

super nice lady and really wants you to succeed, LOTS of material is covered in her class, the only thing that I find frustrating is that she tends to get behind and then rushes through some of the newer material at the end of the course.

Pretty typical intro to bio lecture. She does a really good job of making sure to pause for questions which is nice. Sit in the front if you can since 205 tends to be a fairly large class.

She is very nice and willing to help you during office hours. Tests are very hard and she expects you to spend a lot of time studying for her class. She can be pretty disorganized with makes it difficult.

She is an excellent lecture-style prof. She is very good at connecting the lecture notes to real-life scenarios that are easier to understand. She does group tests after individual tests which can only help your grade. Tests are all application based, making them tough.

Dr. B's class is a nice person but a really hard prof. She cares about her students but doesn't care about piling on lots of work. She expects us to know small details about everything so scheduling office hours to get help is almost necessary. I never skipped a class and still felt overwhelmed so go to every class.

Course can be pretty difficult if you didn't take advance bio in high school. If you did the course is dragging and slow. Daily participation points in clicker questions and records her lectures if you miss class. Always extra credit on exams that can raise your score by a couple percent

Biology 205 is a tough class, I won't deny that. There are 4 exams total and they are all pretty challenging. That being said, Dr. B does a great job of lecturing in class and provides a TON of outside resources to help you if you're struggling (lecture captures, lots of extra credit, mastering biology) The workshops are helpful so GO.

The class is hard but welcome to college, you need to study a decent amount for this class. Her test are hard and stupid but not impossible, overall just get ready to study for this class. The textbook is optional, we never use it in class but it doesn't hurt to have it, honestly just borrow from a friend who bought it.

This class was really hard. You definitely have to figure out how to study. The questions are very difficult, specific, and require you to apply many different pieces of informations you've learned. The class is test heavy yet she gives homework, class attendance and workshop participation to soften your grade. Theres no better teacher for BIO205.

Bio 205 is fundamentally difficult. You simply cannot delve into bio without touching base on chem. With 4 exams, you will need to work for that A and so do take advantage of your resources (she offers detailed lect. capt., extra cred., online assignments, and workshops). Dr. B is patient and so if you are struggling, voice your concerns early.

Dr. B is a lovely person super sweet, she was very accommodating and helpful when it came to my accommodations. Only problem is shes not super organized so her lectures can be a bit messy. Tests are super hard and a large part of your grade. 2-3 long homework assignments per week.

Took online BIO205 with her and loved it. It is a tough class, but she explains all material thoroughly and is very caring with her students. Overall, a great professor!

I took Bio 205 online this semester and I'm not going to lie it was hard. However, Dr. B is an incredible teacher and makes the topics as easy as one could make for a bio class. She is so nice and gives you so many resources to help you succeed.

Dr. B is great! I had her for bio-205 which is a medium-level class, and she always did a great job of ensuring that she explained the tougher subjects well and that everyone understands. She's very flexible and has tons of office hours and availability outside of class!

Super sweet person, the subject is very difficult but she is very accommodating and willing to work with you. Just be prepared to study your heart out and take lots of notes, tests are ridiculously difficult but the homework is always quite easy. 4 tests in total worth a total of 80% of your grade.

I love Dr. B! The exams are a large portion of your grade. She holds many office hours (by appointment or walk-in). Her lectures are amazing and easy to understand. She asks clicker questions to make sure students are understanding the main concept. I would definitely recommend attending workshop to ask questions and test your knowledge.

Dr. B is great, has accessible office hours to help students, and offers extra credit by attending the workshop classes. Homework is given pretty often but is never too hard to finish (she grades on completion). BIO-205 is lecture and test heavy though, but she offers group exams to boost your grade a little bit.

Dr. B will do her best to accommodate you. I had a hard time meeting deadlines due to huge time zone difference (online class), she allowed me to submit assignments on deadlines of my time zone. Her exams are crazy difficult. It's definitely not an easy A class. Even if I listened to the lectures head to tail, the exams were still out of hand.

Was this class an easy A? No. Put in the time and effort and you will succeed. Dr. B is always avaliable outside of class for questions and will walk you through any problems. Do the homework it will help prepare for the exams. The exams are very difficult but doable.

Dr. B is an amazing prof. During COVID she made my online class exciting and engaging, she really cares about her students. Tests are difficult but she is really understanding about how hard it is. She always makes time for office hour appointments and you have a chance to up your grade during the group test.

Dr. B always tried her best to make lab as enjoyable as possible. She spent a long time explaining processes that we needed to know. The post labs are relatively easy, but are graded on accuracy. Make sure to go over the homework assignments as well as the powerpoints for tests. The anatomy is definitely easier than bio365.

The content itself is extremely difficult. I would be rewatching lecture videos making sure that I didn't miss anything, but the exam is still not it. Dr. B is very nice, though. She tries her best to accommodate your needs. There's not much homework. The MasteringA&P code has an e-text included so you don't have to buy the textbook separately.

Dr. B is so understanding and nice. Great at teaching the material. Her clicker questions are super helpful for tests. The material is almost the same as what you learn in high school. She expects you to read along in the textbook to get a deeper understanding of the material. Will sometimes leave out information that appears on exams so do read!

Dr. B is an amazing profesor. She is very kind and supportive, as well as super accessible outside of class. She does go pretty fast through a lot of heavy content, but she posts both the presentations and recordings after class.

I love her straightforward lecture style. Everything on the exams is in the powerpoints. Tests are hard. She is very kind!

I suggest writing notes before class because of how fast pace it can be and the amount of info covered. Her exams can be so hard our first exam was altered after she compared results with other professors because our class did the worst! group exams and attending workshop help your grade. she's considerate though, made buying the textbook easy

Good professor, she does go a bit fast during lectures but she posts the recordings online for everyone to watch. The only thing is that sometimes shes a bit slow to upload slides and recordings from previous classes. Study guides for each chapter are very helpful.

Dr. B shows that she cares for her students and wants them to succeed. Her lectures are witty and informative, and I found it easy to learn from her. She actively walks around and makes sure students understand the activity or lesson and is willing to do any amount of explaining or working with the student until they understand. My favorite!

Class was definitely hard, but she's a really lovely professor that definitely knows her stuff. She is great at making sure everyone is following, and assigns frequent but light homework to keep the content fresh. Missing her class is not a great idea but she Zooms and records it, so she's super accessible. Love Dr. B!

Dr.B really knows her stuff. Her class is lecture heavy so it could be easy to get lost but as long as you can go back and study the concepts outside of class, you should be good. Dr.B tries her best to help her students succeeded. She's very nice however her exam are very difficult. Out of all the biology professors, her exams are the hardest.

Dr. B is a good professor, very caring about her students and is accessible outside of class. A&P II lab is definitely harder than A&P I. Focus on studying the physiology and go into office hours if you need it.

Dr. B is very qualified- not only is she super knowledgeable in her subject but has researched which ways of learning are the most effective for students- and implements her research in class! She provides tons of resources and opportunities to master the material. Her exams are hard but not impossible. Show up to class, workshop, and do the HWs!

As someone who didn't take AP Bio, this class was tough. Dr. B's lectures were fast but engaging, and her visuals were helpful. Don't waste time reading the textbook—focus on lectures and processes. She doesn't reply to emails, so go to office hours—they're incredibly useful. Tests are application-based, but you adjust!

Explains things thoroughly and provides lots of resources for help or further understanding on a topic. Not too much homework and grades it mostly on completion, so tests don't end up mattering THAT much for your grade. Lectures are fast-paced, but that's just because there's a lot of content, so if you study outside of class, you'll do good.

Dr. B is controversial but if you are willing to work hard, she will work with you. Lectures were very important for me, I never read the textbook. She is very willing to help out in office hours, come prepared with what you want to discuss! Sometimes confusing about what material will/won't be on exams, which can be frustrating.

Dr. B is a very caring professor and she is available frequently to help students. The grading criteria is clear and she offers extra credit opportunities throughout the semester. The exams are tough but attending office hours is helpful to do well in the class!
