Prof Moore is an excellent and knowledgeable professor, his lectures are interesting. He gave us just 1 exam and the final since I took the class as a Midterm, I would recommend the regular term. READ THE BOOK, DO MASTERING BIOLOGY AND PAY ATTENTION TO CLASS. The Bio Lab was the best thing happened to me this semester. Lab Exams NO multiple choice!

Make sure you only take this class and the lab during a given semester. Heavy Work! get ready for an endless homework, online assignments, quizzes per chapter, get ready to learn Latin to the max, drawing skills? useful! and even get ready for two labs per session. Take notes of everything he says as everything will be in his tricky tests.

I took him online- no access code required for his class so thankfully the textbook was pretty cheap. I didn't talk to him much but his class is very easy to pass- weekly quizzes with 6 discussions and one proctored exam, and all his quizzes are on quizlet... but I genuinely learned with his material. Highly recommend for virtual.

This professor has singlehandedly made this term my most difficult one. He assigns a LOT of homework on a weekly basis and you have to take a quiz every other week (however they are not incredibly difficult, but do have 20 questions each). My real issue comes to the amount of work that he gives. It becomes almost unmanageable. Not an easy class.
