Class is hard, but manageable. She is a good teacher, but you have to come to class and pay attention. Multiple Choice tests are only graded material, lab counts 25%.

Mrs. Williamson is a really sweet lady. Her lectures aren't exactly enthralling, unless you just get all excited by power point, but she really knows her stuff. I learned alot in her class. It's alot of info, but if you ever need help, she is willing.

she is a good teacher, she knows what she is talking about. if you like biology definately take her, if you want to learn biology she is a good start also.

Phenomenal Teacher. She is very intelligent, and can answer any question you have. Tests are sometimes worded differently than notes, but if you studied enough, you'll be able to answer them. She gives extra points some days when few people are in class. Study a few days before test.

very helpful

This class has a ton of material, so be ready to remember alot. Its not a horrible class ( although I loathed the labs ) just a lot to try and memorize. She does a good job explaining, and is easy to talk to outside of class.

Very easy teacher. all power point notes..kinda boring. she is very understanding of bad lab instructors. be sure to attend class on fridays, towards the end of the semester, and days right before school lets out for a holiday-she likes to give freebie quizzes & bonus points on these days.tests are straight from the notes-just study-lot of material

Williamson seemed knowledgeable about most material. I don't think she believed in evolution, which was a bit bothersome, considering she was teaching zoology. After the first test, I regretted studying the book at all because all of her test material comes directly from her notes.

Very straight forward, incredibly easy class. Just memorize your notes and you're good to go for her tests.

Pretty easy class, just don't depend on her posting items when she says she will.

Gives tons of notes. while she doesnt always post what she says she will she is very good about helping you. you have a notebook that you have to buy so that makes it easier

Super easy. The class is labeled animal biology, but you will never learn a thing about any animals.

This is one of the best teachers I have ever had. If you go to class and do your work you will be fine, no "genius" brains necessary!

The class is pretty easy. Her tests are straight from the notes. I didn't do the best on her test but she gives a ton of bonus points and tries to give you the best grade possible. She was always sweet and helpful when I would see her after class.

Tests were so easy! Basic biology knowledge. Go to class for notes - not difficult. Study night before test and you'll make straight As. She knows her biology, too.

Her tests are fairly easy if you study. As long as you go to class and take notes you will pass the class with flying colors. I made Cs on all the tests and still pulled out a B in the class. The final is optional but it will help your grade! Labs are super easy but you have to write 800 words or you will receive a zero for the lab grades. Easy A.

If you go to class, take the notes, and get good grades on the lab it is an easy A. The tests are straight from the guided notes. Just make flashcards and I promise you will get an A. Pretty much a joke. Take if you can!!! The "textbook" is a spiraled guided notes. GET IT!

A lot of people complain about Williamson but I didn't find her to be too bad. She is very helpful if you stay after class and her test are very fair. Not my favorite professor but I would take her again.

All of the tests are multiple choice. There are multiple quizlets already created for the class search them before you try to make your own. GO TO LAB! It counts for a large portion of your grade! Also, you will have one or two online homeworks weekly, I suggest do as many as you can!

I would definitely recommend taking Animal Biology with her. Lectures are boring but if you take notes during class and study those notes before tests you'll make an A on every test. There are four tests during the semester that are 50 multiple choice each. Tests are basically copy and paste from the lecture notebook.

I found her class fairly easy. Go to class, take the notes, study them. The tests are straight from the notes. She gives lots of extra credit for homework. If you have good study habits you'll be fine!

Lecture notes follow along the manual exactly. Attendance and pop quizzes are bonus and do not affect your grade. Homework adds up to around 10 bonus points to your overall average. The biology department makes the tests, but she does not count material she doesn't cover. Very easy to work with

Bio II is a tough course, but Mrs. Williamson does her best to make it easier on you. If a topic is difficult to explain or understand, she will sometimes skip it all together and let the upper level professors teach it when you reach their courses. She is very fair with tests and only grades material you have properly covered.

Her lectures can be boring, but it's hard to make Biology extremely interesting. The final is optional, but it helps your grade if you do well. She is strict about phones and talking during class. Take good notes and don't miss much and you'll pass for sure.

Lectures are boring but worth going to for the notes. Lab is easy and has a drop grade so you should get an A in it. Her tests are usually from the slides so as long as you study you will be fine. There are plenty of quizlets for her class that help. She also gives an optional final.

Lab is slow and boring, lecture is straight from a powerpoint, she's strict on phone use, but if you attend and take notes the class is super easy and she gives bonus points for attendance sometimes.

I took animal biology with Dr. Williamson, It was a huge class and she lectures most of the time. If you make quizlets with the notes her tests are easy and practically just like the notes. I recommend buying the note guide.

Buy the note manual and take notes every time. She does not post slides. Tests are are easy, and as long as you study, the questions will seem word for word off of the note guide.

You go to class and fill out the note manual while she lectures. The tests are given directly from the notes you take in class. If you go to the SI session, the test will be pretty easy, but you do have to study a decent amount. You will always get a 100 on hw if you just do it. The lab is so easy and only takes 30 min. I would definitely recommend

If you show up and take notes, you can easily pass the class. If you go the the SI as well, then its an easy A. Tests are practically the same as the notes. Her lecture can be a little boring sometimes but she knows what shes talking about and wants her students to do well.

Really easy to understand, but she doesn't post notes online so you need to be there to get them

I really liked her class which was weird because I typically hate anything to do with science. A lot of comments are saying shes rude, but I would say shes just strict. There were a lot of people in the class and she just doesnt deal with people talking and not paying attention. I went to her office hours and she was really nice & helpful.

Her lectures follow along with the note manual, so you just fill in the blanks. The tests is just information word for word from the note manuals. The lab was online so it was super easy and never took more than 20 minutes. Also on the homework you have unlimited attempts. Overall, it was a very straight forward class.

Mrs. Williamson's Vertebrate Histology class can be very intimidating for students who are not adept at memorization or visual identification. The textbook is required and notes are filled in from her lectures. The exams and lab practicals can be difficult, but after getting a hang of her formatting and expectations, the class becomes easier.

She pretty much just reads off the powerpoint during class. There's a lecture manual where she tells you exactly what to write down, and that's what's on the test. The tests are super easy if you study; it's usually about 50 multiple choice questions. There's online labs and homework every week which are also easy.

Professor Williamson was great! The only thing you had to do is make sure you have her lecture notes , memorize them and BOOM you are ready for the exam! If you can't memorize though I do not recommend taking her class because it does need at least 3-4 days to get all the material done. Make sure to do your HW on time, and you'll do good!
