I found this class to be interesting. Dr. St. Clair did a great job--he knows how to teach well. The team teacher who taught some of the lectures was awful, however. I learned a lot in this class.

Dr. St Clair doesn't design the course. There's a whole committee of people. So don't blame THAT on him. Dr. St Clair was wonderful and if I was willing to go see him, he was always willing to help me. If you go to class, you'll get an A...it's simple

He's a great teacher. He explains everything thoroughly and cares immensely for every student in the class. If you have any problems, concerns, or questions he embraces them without becoming annoyed. He is witty and quite entertaining, like a father.

Much better than his team teacher. The class is still pretty boring, though.

St. Clair is entertaining - he has only one open eye, is constantly pulling up his pants and is always yelling at Isaac, the TA (Isaac, if we could go back to the first slide of the lecture outline...). Boring class, easy tests.

Very entertaining and knowledgeable. Really cares about the students.

Pretty interesting. Nice guy, somewhat funny. Not hard to get a good grade if you go to lecture.

LEGEND! Fall asleep in class a lot, but its okay because i only miss like two lines from the notebook cuz people ask stupid questions and waste time. Quasimodo. Yessssssssssssss.

Very nice guy, knows his stuff. A lot of busy work in the class.

Nice guy!

I hated the class to begin with, but after I started understanding what was being taught I really enjoyed the class. Brother St. Clair is a SUPER nice guy! I found that he was really willing to help his students understand what he was talking about. Test I found to be kinda hard. You have to study..

St. Clair is a wonderful professor. I learned a lot. I would recommend this class to anyone.

Bro. St. Clair is the nicest and funniest Book of Mormon teacher. There wasn't a whole lot of class discussion, but the tests were really easy. I am glad I took this class.

All I can say is that the tests are way hard, and there is so much stuff to do. But if you keep up with everything you should get a good grade. Luckily tests aren't worth everything. Pray you get an easy TA.

I was amazed at how interested Dr. St. Clair is in his students. I had the priviledge of talking to him one on one in his office and he was very accommodating to my needs as a student. He explained every question I had and offered extra help with studying for the tests. He's an incredible person and excellent teacher!

hes a nice guy, but make sure you do the assingments. tests can be hard, but there are a lot of other assignments to help boost your grade so dont worry about it. TAs though, GET A GOOD ONE they can make or break a class

He's a nice guy, but he sometimes gets off on tangents during his lectures. Also, he'll yell at you in front of the whole class for ten minutes if you fall asleep, which is very easy to do in this class. Tests are hard and have nothing to do with the lecture or the book. There is also a lot of outside work that isn't necessary in other GE classes.

Guys, the goal is to rate the teacher not the class. Bio 100 is VERY hard, but Mr. St. Clair rocks. Just ask for help and he is absolutely willing and happy to help. He will give you tons of free points as long as you show you're trying.

Dr. St. Clair shows that he cares a lot about the students, but it is just too big of a class for it to matter. His lectures are usually filled with much more detail than a 100-level class should be. The tests are awful and obscure. I think he would be a good prof. is a small class, but he comes off as a jerk in this class.

I was told horror stories about hard tests and busy work before i took this class, but i haven't gotten anything less then a B on a test. The "busy work" is a quiz or assignment or two page paper due once a week. I always did it a few hours before lab, no big deal. The tests are very reasonable and they tell you exwhats on them.

wow! VERY nice guy and always willing to meet with you outside of class even though you have a TA for that. his tests are kinda hard, but he gives a detailed study guide for each test. hes very patient with students, and i bet the student below me tried his patience a lot. i never saw stclair yell at anyone and cant even imagine it really!

I thought this class was pretty easy. Just read the chapters and somewhat pay attention in lecture and you'll be fine. Definitely not the most interesting class I've ever taken though. Fell asleep almost every class...lots of busywork too.

It annoys me that some people have called him unorganized. He has been the MOST organized biology professor I've had at BYU! He gave us regular hand-outs every class, and if you studied the concepts on those hand-outs you can really excel in his class. And go talk to him during office hours he is so willing to help you succeed in biology.

Professor is super easy, loved this class!

I did not like professor St. Clair at all in Biology. But he is by far the best religion teacher I have had at BYU. His tests are take home essays and are not hard as long as you pay attention. He really knows his stuff and makes his Book of Mormon class more than just a glorified seminary lesson. He genuinely cares about his students and

This class isn't as bad as everyone says it is. Sometimes the lectures can get a little boring but I felt like I learned quite a bit. Bro St. Clair is a very kind man and goes the extra mile to help his students succeed.

Stclair is an awesome teacher. He is constantly working to make his class better. I hate biology but he made it bareable.

Anyone who says this class is tough is an idiot. Just read the chapters, go to the review sessions and you will get an A. Yeah St. Clair's lectures are marginal, but he is a plain old nice guy. I have zero interest in biology and I'm telling you the only way you cannot get an A in this class is if you are LAZY.

Brother St. Clair always entertains dumb questions but usually is helpful

His tests are kinda hard. Very boring lectures, but then again its science how interesting could it be. He is nice, and always starts his class off with a prayer. I'd take him, but then again how many other professors teach bio 100?

This class really is okay. Just read the textbook. I repeat: READ THE TEXTBOOK. He's a pretty good teacher. He knows what he's talking about. And about this Jordan guy: I think he's a robot that runs out of batteries every once in a while. ("Next slide, Jordan...Jordan? Jordan?! Never mind. Um...class dismissed.")

I wasn't to bad. I got an A and i hate science.

My best advice is to go to test reviews with BRIAN JORGENSEN or get him as a TA! He is an awesome TA and has helped me get good grades on tests. The class is fine and Prof. St. Clair is a nice guy.

Dr. St. Clair is a great lecturer, but he tends to leave his tests standardized. He doesn't always cover whats on the tests. But he has a small ability to listen to reason.

lectures are kind of ridiculous on some days. class is overall pretty easy. there are weekly assignments: 5 questions each that apply to a specific scenario. super easy. if you have trouble, you can go into the lab & the TAs will just give you the answer. two exams during sem, then the final. not too bad, just do the review sheet and it's cake!

A difficult class. I love the professor but hate the way he set up the class. The only reason I lost points in the class (aside from tests) are not related to the course (off-topic issues - using tertiary sources, answering non-biological questions incorrectly). Very difficult class.

I've heard so many bad things about him, but I really like this guy. The class is not the most exciting thing ever, granted, but it's not hard. You get so many points for cake assignments that an A is pretty attainable. Dr. St. Clair is really nice and could easily be a lot more boring than he is.

This class isnt that interesting, but its not the worst class ever. Your success depends on 3 things: your TA (if your ta sucks, you will be in a hole), your group (same situation as ta), and your ability to read ALL directions and supporting information on "overview assignments". Overall, I thought the class was not too difficult.

I thought this class was super easy. Read the book, show up, take notes, do the assignments and you're good. The only hard part was the group work. The tests aren't bad at all if you study the syllabus. Dr. St. Clair does a good job of emphasizing the important stuff so just write down what he says if he starts repeating himself.

He tries to be as clear as possible and is very good about answering questions. Lecture was boring and I didn't learn anything new.

Tests are difficult, however classwork helps grade become higher.

I really enjoyed his class. He really cares about his students and always takes the time to do in depth reviews before exams. The HW isn't hard. He recommends what pages in the book you should review for the exam. If you just read those and pay attention in lecture, it's a fairly easy class.

He was quite interesting and kept you involved in the class. His lectures rarely put you to sleep, and that's saying a lot cause I took the class in the late afternoon during usual nap time hours. His TAs did a lot of the teaching too.

Professor St. Claire is such a great guy! I love the guy so much, and he's so careful on how he approached evolution. The tests are HARD, but if you get a decent score (even in the 70s) on individual exams, getting an A is very possible. Kind of boring, I would recommend it from someone easier, unless if you like bio, then it's probably fine.

Pretty easy teacher and the TA's are helpful, not a bad class but his voice tends to put me to sleep.

He was an amazing teacher! Because of him I want to be a teacher and help others want to be better! I hope one day I can be as influential to others as he has been for me! Thanks for all of your hard work!

I don't know why everyone is so hard on the guy. He is a little boring early in the morning, but he's just your basic crusty old man. Pretty funny guy. He's great about the amount of depth he goes into and is realistic about the students' interest since it's just a GE.

Must attend class since the tests are mainly based off the stuff he goes over in class. I enjoyed this class, but that could be because of the interest I have in biology. Otherwise I'd probably sleep like the girl next to me in class everyday.

He gives ample opportunities outside of class for extra help if you don't understand. There are many review sessions to prepare for tests, assignments, and everything else.

nice helpful teacher if you need anything he is there for you, attend dont sleep in class you will miss alot. one paper to write 3 or 2 exams then final, 3 homework overviews. its all basic biology so very useful.

Got students into the material, and encouraged participation.

Great teacher. Provides plenty of opportunities for extra credit and is always willing to help students. It's obvious that he cares about people, the subject, and the gospel. I highly recommend him.

Best teacher I ever had. He was helpful and funny. He was willing to work with me and I enjoyed his classes very much.

I really liked Dr. St. Clair. Biology was easy for me, but he explains concepts thoroughly and is always willing to answer questions. He met with me several times because I was confused about some things, and he took the time to individually explain concepts to me. He genuinely wants his students to do well.

He is a fantastic teacher. He explains Biology so well through and overall is such a great guy. He will help you out if you go talk to him one on one. One of the best teachers I have ever had. I would recommend him to everyone and his homework is easy and tests are not to bad

Bro. St Clair always brings the gospel into his lectures. He truly believes in teaching us concepts along with strengthening our testimonies. He is a great teacher. The assignments and tests aren't that hard if you study and go to the review sessions he provides.

I liked St. Clair. He is very thoughtful and you can tell he has a passion for science and God together. I enjoyed the class and it was an easy A. Class attendance doesn't matter other than to get notes.

Easily one of my favorite classes taken at BYU, and not because of the subject! St Clair is passionate about science and incorporates the gospel into every lecture. Assignment details are always clear. It's an easy A, but I wouldn't say it's a "do nothing" class. You absolutely need to do the homework, and you will be just fine. Minimal studying.

Dr. St. Clair is the sweetest! He was always concerned when i was struggling, and responded with caring. I got my lowest score on an exam ever, and still got a good grade in the class because the TA was not a tough grader and a big part of the grade was other assignments. I don't know if that was true for other students and their TA's?

Professor St. Clair's lectures were a little long (I took the class in Spring term), but I think the class would be a lot more interesting if only absorbed in hour increments. His assignments are usually pretty clear and are graded very easily. As a person, Professor St. Clair is wonderful, and his love for the subject really shows.

Brother St. Clair changed my life. As someone who is really not into science or biology, I was sure this class would be horrible. However, it was such an amazing experience. His deep understanding and appreciation for life strengthened my testimony and helped me to gain a more wholesome outlook on my own life. Sad to see that he is retiring :(

I had dropped this course from Bradshaw because of the frustrations of not having clearly defined expectations or even what material would be tested. This was a breath of fresh air in comparison. I enjoyed the class so much I became a TA for professor St. Clair for 2 years. We need more like him.

It's the easiest class I've ever taken, he was awesome!
