Ok, so i was told to take Delaney and i would get an A in the class and love her. Well i failed her. I went to class, studied what she told me and still failed. The only grades you get are tests and she isnt open for discussion on any grades and very unhelpful to all. I will give her credit for being passionate about her work though.

I've taken lots of Biology in HS, so this class has so far been pretty easy for me. Teacher is really nice, speaks slowly, and goes over important stuff 2 or 3 times. All chapter notes are available on the web and are fill in the blank. Study your notes, remember pictures. 3 points added to final grade for attendance of 90%+

The easiest biology class I have ever taken. She gave us 12 extra credit opportunities so it's pretty easy to have a good grade. Attendance is taken by clicker questions so it is probably a good idea to go to class. The tests are VERY easy, she will give you hints of what's on them-take note because it is usually exactly what she tells you

Takes daily attendance, but it doesn't really affect your grade, even if you skip (a lot). Uses mindtap, which can be expensive, just something to consider.
