There was so much work in this class, but most of it was a huge waste of time. We did not learn much for what we put into it. There are a lot of chances for extra credit though. Our third test was a take-home(as were the first two), but was absolutely ridiculous, and had 180 questions. Other students found the questions on other colleges' websites.

Although his tests come straight from the quizzes, his grading is very biased and unfair at times. His lectures are way behind so there's almost no point in going to class.

Mr. Egremy is horrible as a professor. He expects everyone to teach themselves biology and doesn't add much to PowerPoint lectures that he goes over in class. Doesn't respond to phone calls either. I'm sure there are better biology professors at Vista, but he's definitely not one of them.

It is a confusing class. Textbook and homework are online modules. They rarely match up with what the professor is trying to teach in class. Assignments from lecture and lab are stacked upon top of each including lab reports, online assignments, online tests, and in class assignments. You need time to study and do the online modules

Worst professor ever!! The final chapter presentation has to be done in a group, and he wants you to actually have 3 hours of one on ones with him or a tutor for this dumb project. Must of us have lives and don't have time for the nonsense. He actually makes each group try and teach a chapter. If I wanted to be a teacher I would be. Don't take him!

This class was not hard but it felt pointless to show up to class. Your whole class is basically done through canvas and online modules and quizzes. Tests are online and you show up to class just for boring lectures. There is a final project that you have to do with a group, its not to hard you just have to make time for it.

Genuinely, he is a nice person. HOWEVER, when it comes to being a professor, he leaves much to be desired. EX: We had a test over Ch's 4 5 6 and he was still covering Ch.2.

Dr. Egremy is an awesome professor. His lectures are gravy if you pay attention and the lab is fun if you have cool partners. The reading is kind of tough, but he goes over it in class so no worries.

Comes across very bland at first, but once you get to know him he is very kind and funny. Heavy accent, but I was able to understand very quickly. All his homework assignments are quizlet related. Exams are done at home online, no essays. Very monotone, so you might get sleepy in class, but overall, his class is fine.

Absolutely terrible. I will never put myself through that again. Wouldn't even touch the sign up button with a 1000 foot pole. Please take this as a severe warning. He is terrible. The worst. He has this extra credit thing where if your'e his favorite then he'll give you extra points, if you say something it in his boring style.emphasis on boring

Taking this class i thought it was going to be easy. He is a very tough grader if you don't know the material good thing is you can always go back. Test were always multiple choice with 2 essay questions at the end. If taking his class try to take your time on the essay questions to make it perfect because he's picky. I really do not recommend...

The whole course revolves on 6 essay questions total, your whole grade depends you write an essay. Don't take this professor. Boring lectures that do not match the test at all.

If you can write essays, this class is easy. It's a non-science major class, we never went too in-depth into topics. The essays weren't too demanding, but it is good to be thorough. If you struggle w/ essays, this class will likely burn you. Tests=take home, HW assignments=easy, grp project=easy-worth 2 test grades. B or higher=exempt from final.

This is the single worst teacher I've ever had the displeasure of studying under. It was uniquely disrespectful to be spoken to like a third grader who had never heard of the word "Biology" before. He is infuriating to listen to, a dreadful lecturer, and some how managed to make the class more awkward than 8th grade sex ed. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS!!

Professor E.'s class is a mixed bag. Lectures can be dry, but the content is manageable if you stay on top of readings and assignments. Unstuckstudy proved helpful for essay prep. Overall, it's doable with effort, but not the most engaging experience.

He is very good at teaching the topic at hand, he uses a lot of examples to help you understand the topic. He is however a very hard grader as he often asks for super specific answers on the test and he will take off a lot of points if you are not detailed enough.
