The pace is fast, but very interesting!!!

Not as easy as it may seem; she covers a LOT of stuff!

this became one of my favorite classes, she was very helpful and happy!

gives good notes, easy to follow, very nice woman

Good prof, kinda reminds me of my mom the way she explains things and lectures, the midterm is hard so make sure you know your stuff, very detalied so do not take lightly, final is easier then the midterm. If you can get ahold of an old midterm do so.

clear, detailed notes

Sorry, I found this class to be one of the easiest classes I've ever taken. How could anyone think it was hard?

Loved this class! So interesting and applicable. She goes very fast with the notes, but tests fair. If this subject interests you, she is great. She sometimes seems a bit snotty and condescending.

Take notes fast!!! She always goes 5 minutes over...she doesn't seem to acknowledge that you probably have other classes to rush to when she puts notes up after class should be done.

I really liked this class...made me want to enter nursing! I didn't even buy a textbook and I got an 80%(good notes)!!

Good teacher, very straightforward exams, all multiple choice. This class requires minimal time and is very interesting. The only class I have ever taken that helps me in everyday life.

Hey guys, This class is cool. I'd recommend it for sure. Melanie was good and her notes were clear and organized. She did go super long a lot though ... kind of think that a MWF class would fix that.

Great class! Very interesting, and easy to pass with a good mark as long as you pay attention in class. Helpful in answering questions. Do your work, and this class will be very easy. Highly reccomended.

Alot of material, but a great class. She's very enthusiastic about the subject and is very approachable and helpful. As long as you read her notes the exams are easy.

Great Prof..alot of notes, but really good class. I definately recommend taking it.

she is all over the place, and shes the only person to teach it, not really organised, although if u go to her on an appointment, or email her, shell give u lotsa help

She lectures to the max...I don't think we ever had a class that DIDN'T go a few minutes over. Lots of notes! She knows her stuff, and the lectures are organized well, though. Class material is interesting. If you can keep up, its well worth taking!

She's too much!

She is a good instructor with lots of knoweldge about her field. She is very excited about nutrition and it shows. Her exams were fairly easy if you studied, which I think lots of people didn't do. This is one of the only classes I have ever took where I have learned things that will actually be usefull to me in everyday life. Take this class!

She is extreemly knowledgable, and is s true professional in the nutrition field. The only issues I had with her is that she is not as clear as I would have liked on what material you needed to know on the exams, as well as it would really be helpful if she would give up the overheads and start anew with powerpoint.

Very good prof. a bit anal about exam procedures but in general very fair. exams are on the picky details but nothing outside of what was covered in class.

Great prof with a good knowledge of her subject, as well as others (has a degree in microbiology as well IIRC). Notes can be a bit random and all over the place, but by and large they all fit together.

She is great. So enthusiastic and really knows her stuff. Melanie makes everything very interesting and you can tell she really cares about what she is teaching. She does expect a lot from her students, but she is always there to help you achieve her expectations. Excellent teaching method.

Best Prof. Ive had at the University yet. She actually has a B.Ed, so she knows how to teach. Her subject material and the text are facinating. Her exams are very fair, and she always tells you what is important. Show up to all classes, do the assigned readings and quizzes and you'll do awesome. Besides it is interesting and applicable information.

This class is so applicable to life and she does a fantastic job of teaching it. The lectures flew by. Her tests are very tricky so pay attention to all the details in class and the bolded words in the textbook. Also know examples of foods.

Definitely a very interesting class. Material is fascinating, but packed in. She expects you to know a lot for each test. Make sure you read the book as well as go over lecture notes for quizzes because there are lots of questions pulled straight from the book. Questions are fair, but fairly intensive so make sure you know your stuff.

she's pretty good, the exams are not that hard if you read.

She definitely expects a LOT! If you have a chance to get someone's notes from the previous years definitely do so as the pace of the class is very quick. Melanie knows her stuff and expects her students to know it as well as she does. READ the text and study all the notes as she tests on the minute deetails that are easy to ignore. Good class

Very good teacher. Hard Test, be sure to study lots for her exams and take good notes. Be sure the read the text extensively to get marks in hight 80's/90's. overall quite good class.

If you have a basic understanding of physiology and biochemistry, this class will be very informative and interesting. Don't come to class expecting to sit there and socialize, as she will stop the lecture to tell you to either be quiet or leave. Four years of university and she is one of the best profs I've had.

One of the best profs I've ever had!! She is way too smart and loves to share her knowledge!! She definitely made the class interesting, and if she didn't know the answer to a question, she always did her research and came to class the next day with the answer. Awesome, keep up the amazing work.

Theres alot of writing from the board. So to make studying notes easiest. Bring a laptop to take notes down. Just make sure your laptop last up to 2 hours. (no plugs) its the best way to get everything she says. most of the stuff she tests on is from class notes, and the extra things she talks about.

Great prof. You *have* to go to class, to get all her notes. She is so organized that it is easy to study for her exams. Exams are straight forward.

Tough prof., and she expected a lot from her students. If you go in knowing it will be a lot of work and you are willing to do it, then you will be fine. She is very clear with what she wants you to know...everything...no lie. Know as much as you can, and do the assignments. Write down everything she says. It is not easy but its doable.

Very competent instructor. Knows her stuff inside and out. Easy class.

It is very possible to get a great mark in this class. Lectures are excellent, presented energetically and rife with anecdotes and up-to-date nutrition information. Attending all lectures and faithfully studying those notes will net students above 80 - dutifully reading the excellent textbook will ensure an even higher mark. Interesting and fair.

Intelligent, organized, passionate, and fair with high standards pretty much sums Melanie up. Don't take her classes if you are not prepared to do the work. Much personal benefit if you do, though!

Hands down one of the best profs I have ever had. She explains everything so clearly and if you read the text book often then you will surly receive a great mark! She was AWESOME!

Melanie is crazy. plain and simple. She is so smart and totally knows her stuff. Tests are tricky though. bewaare the midterm

Great class, easy enough but required some studying.

Loved this class, I don't know why she has so many bad reviews, she was one of the best profs I have encountered in first year classes. You HAVE to go to class to get the notes, and she straight up tells you that anything in the text, or that she tells you in class is fair game for tests. Tests were straightforward if you studied! overall super!

Love her! Only 8:30 am class that I have ever been able to stay awake for. The lecture goes by so fast and always left me wanting to read the textbook, which you need to do, to learn more details. Lectures are easy to follow. I am a biochem major, I studied the night before both midterms and pulled off 90s. So easy!

Very helpful and understands the material herself and is able to answer questions

Great class, very interesting and helpful. Must attend every class because the notes are extremely important. Make sure you read the textbook, A LOT of random questions from it. Overall tough class, be ready to work hard and keep up.

Melanie was a wonderful proff. The material was very interesting and she made it easy for you to understand. This class is a class you must attend all the time or you will have troubles with the material. Overall, she is one of my favorite proffs at the U of S!

She is one of the best profs. Gotta attend class because she makes you take notes, but this helps you pay attention and learn. Tests are easy if you study. Overall great prof and great class

Melanie is an awesome prof! She is very helpful, and her notes were clear and concise. I pulled off a 90, but I do warn you, you must put in the work. She mostly tests from her notes, so if you know her notes inside out, you should get high 90s! Attending class is mandatory, she makes you take notes in class!! Overall, an amazing class and prof!!

Great prof! She teaches in an old school way tho(aka. handwritten notes on an overhead). Classes are podcast, but because she doesn't use powerpoint the notes are not video captured. Exams are based on her notes but she does pull random stuff from the text figures/charts/readings -- Mainly the stuff she doesn't cover in class.

Great Professor. Handwrites her notes so attending class is extremely important unless there are podcasts of her lectures. Goes over what is important for you to know from the textbook and she usually only pulls a couple of questions straight from the textbook. Most of the material ties in together near the end so the final is not too difficult!

My favourite prof throughout university. The class is easy besides the final. 95+ average if you study hard

Best prof I have had yet at this university! She is very passionate about what she teaches. Also extremely knowledgeable about the subject. She knows how to grab the attention of the class. Highly recommend you take this class!

Favorite prof so far, very enthusiastic, outgoing, easy to listen to and understand. She is very thourough and knows what she's teaching very well. She is great at answering questions and gives a good outline of the class, i love this class due to her teaching she makes it fun and interesting. Everyone clapped for her on our last class day.

You will either love or hate this class. I loved it. Melanie is passionate about Nutrition, and takes a very scientific approach. If you like Biology & Chemistry combined with Nutrition concepts, you'll enjoy the course. It is challenging because there is a lot of material, so be prepared to work hard for a good grade!

The course was interesting and engaging.. even though it was an online course. I had an 90 going in to the final.. but I found that the course did NOT prepare me for the final exam whatsoever. It almost seemed like it was an exam for a different course. Not sure how I did on that yet. But If you are going to take this course, BEWARE the final.

Made class interesting and engaging. Exams were straightforward, however a lot of material is covered, particularly in the things that are the in the textbook and not covered in class. Overall she is a great prof, it's just a lot of things to remember before the final exam.

Melanie is one of those prof's who really wants her students to do well, so she puts a lot of effort in. There is a lot of material and a lot of required reading but the midterm and final were fairly straightforward. The class is much easier if you've done bio, chem and biochem courses before!

Melanie tends to get a bad rap, but she's actually one of the best teachers I've had. It's not an easy class with lots of required readings and very bio orientated. But she uses lots of cute diagrams and does her best to answer questions thoroughly.

I adored this class, especially with Melanie. The material is lengthy but if you study you won't have a problem! There are online quizzes and I found the textbook very necessary! She also writes in her notes and doesnt post them online but she's very easy to pay attention to, I highly recommend this prof. My favourite by far!

Good professor, very hard exams. smart lady but expects you to spend hours each night on homework. Doesn't think about all the other classes you are in. only about herself and her class. But a very very interesting course and recommend taking it to anybody

Really liked this class and the prof! Definitely would recommend! It is a very information intense course but very interesting and great!

Melanie is a phenomenal instructor! Go to class, and keep up with readings. For a science class, Nutrition 120 was fairly light and very interesting. If your interested in health and disease, I strongly recommend this course.I finished with a 97.

She is an excellent, charismatic teacher and she knows what she is talking about!

I have never had such a passionate, enthusiastic, and all around incredible professor. Her lectures were well paced and the material was interesting. Her exams were very fair! This is how a university class should be taught!

She is a great prof. Her lectures are well organized and interesting. She is very good at explaining topics and records her lectures! Exams are fair. She is passionate about what she does.

Melanie was an amazing teacher with a passion for nutrition. This was the most interesting class I have ever taken that is so applicable in every day life. I found the tests very difficult but her lectures were well-organized and she made the concepts very clear.

Melanie is awesome!

She's truly passionate about nutrition and health, and somehow manages to make even the most boring topics seem interesting! She's always willing to go the extra mile to help explain a concept, and answers emails promptly and politely! It's a long class, but with her up-beat attitude, they time flies by! Definitely my favorite professor!

Melanie lays out the class material in a simple manner, that is easy to understand. Nutrition 120 is a practical course that can easily be applied to one's day to day life. Those that complain about the difficulty of this course are, most probably, first years; it's not high school, you do have to study.

Nice lady. Well structure lectures and interesting but definitely you have to go to class and read everything in textbook in order to do well in the test.

Very knowledgeable and engaging

energetic prof, would like to explain everything if questioned, interesting lectures,

She's great at clarifying difficult subject matter. She has an odd sense of humor, but managed to make an 8:30am class easy to focus in!

Melanie was easily one of the best profs I've had. She's super passionate and loves answering questions in class. The work load is very heavy, with weekly quizzes and tons of material. It's best not to miss a lecture, although she does offer lecture capture. Unfortunately she doesn't post any slides, notes or other information online.

Best class!

Melanie is one of the best profs I've ever had. She's makes an 830 class enjoyable. The weekly online quizzes are easy if you read the textbook carefully. Tons of material throughout the term which sometimes makes it hard to keep up but definitely well worth it. Her exams are relatively easy, its mostly material covered in the lectures. Best class!

Very passionate about what she is teaching, which makes the lectures very interesting. The questions for the online quiz's come right out of the textbook. Most of the exam material is covered in class, but there is some detail memorization (from textbook) required. Overall a great class! Course content has real-life applications, which is a plus!

You have to keep up, you might think its easy until you see her tests. She is a very good professor, keeps you interested and provides lots of extra information to be able to really apply what you are learning to your life. She is really good at answering any questions and provides review sessions before each test.

Professor Rozwadowski is a kind professor who is passionate about her work. If you would like to take this class, be prepared to do a lot of reading and studying because course material is heavy and she assigns a lot of materials. She also makes hard concepts easy to understand, so don't miss class!

Loved her class.. She did her best to make dry topics interesting. A lot of assigned readings that are necessary to do well in the course. However, er passion for the subject is contagious. One of my favourite courses because of its application to my everyday life.

One of the best profs I've ever had as far as teaching ability. I have seen a lot of complaints about test difficulty, the tests are in no way difficult if you complete the assigned readings they are MC on key course terms and concepts. This class piqued my interest in health and the human body and probably changed my eating habits forever.

Melanie was a fantastic prof. She covered material clearly and well and made sure to note when you should cover it further by reading the text. I would certainly suggest reading the text as many questions from the exams aren't covered in her lecture material.

I really disliked this class... Melanie has good lecture skills but the content to me was very very boring.... the amount of reading you have to do is ridiculous.. there are 2 midterms wrth 25% each.. (horrible I know).. I also find her exams extremely hard as you have to know nitty gritty detail.. would not take this course again ever

Loved this class! The material was interesting and Melanie is a great lecturer. One thing I loved was that she was so organized (she gave a calendar of what we are doing, what you need to read,etc on the 1st day and she stuck to it). She was a bit stuck up & sometimes treats students like they're stupid when they ask ques. Easy class overall & fun!

Melanie is a great prof with a clear enthusiasm for her subject, but the course is not an "easy A" and she makes that clear from the start. It may seem easy for the first few weeks, but it felt there was more content than a biology class. Discussion groups were an easy way to boost your mark tho (and you'll need it). She posts recorded lectures.

Melanie is really nice prof! She tries her best to make an 8:30 class not boring. Her midterms come from the notes usually, so better pay attention to what she's saying. There's lecture capture as well.

Overall great professor. Her lectures are interesting and the material is easy to understand. As long as you study it is easy to get an 80+ in the class

Melanie was an amazing professor! The material was very hard and I didn't have time to put as much effort needed to do good in this class. You really need to work hard if you want a good grade. I didnt go to discussion groups but I would recommend it to help you have a higher grade if you have the time to go to them

Take this class if you have an interest in Nutrition topics, otherwise the material will seem very heavy. I barely used the textbook, but is still worth the buy due to the interesting content. I looked forward to this class, and it is by far my best mark. Melanie is an awesome prof that doesn't make things harder than it needs to be.

Melanie is passionate about nutrition and explains concepts and expectations clearly. Her exams are fair, albeit content heavy for a first year class. She can be insensitive/uncompassionate in instances of unforeseen circumstances (e.g. family emergencies, Huskies athletics) so missing class or re-scheduling exams is a battle.

Melanie is an excellent professor. She is clearly passionate about the study of nutrition. She is very organized and explains concepts thoroughly. She always makes the time to email you back in case you have any questions. I believe that everyone should take this course.

Lectures were sometimes a little irrelevant to the tested material. Very good lecturer though and definitely knows her stuff. Tests were quite hard but use WileyPlus if it's an option as it really helped me.

She kept lectures interesting and was great at explaining stuff. Also very good at answering questions and responding to e-mails. Tests were very fair, testing on both lecture material and the textbook. Also made lectures available on blackboard. Honestly just a great professor!

She was an amazing prof who was really interested in what she was teaching and made it interesting for her students! There are weekly quizzes but most of her examable material is based on lectures. Would definitely take another class of hers!

This was my best class and best prof this year. If you attend classes and study, you will pass. Her explanations are awesome and you almost don't need to study the text in detail if you attend class. The some of material can be tough but that's just the subject area. Great prof, would highly recommend her. Respected, caring and knows her stuff.

She's accessible outside of class. Listen to her and pay attention!

She is a great Prof and she explains concepts very well. Make the textbook your friend along with Wiley plus the online code you get when you buy the textbook. The website has quizzes once you complete chapters and they are recommended and will help with your grades!! good luck

her teaching style is awesome and she is really passionate about what she teaches so it makes the content more interesting. although the content is interesting it is tough stuff and you will have to review on your own if you want a good mark

Great prof! Really emphasizes what you need to know for the midterms/final in class. Do the group discussions if you can as they are an easy 10%. If you take good notes in class then you won't need to read the textbook at all. However, you do need to buy it to do the quizzes. Melanie is very passionate and knowledgeable about all things nutrition!

Melanie is a lady that knows and loves what she talks about. She is my favorite teacher so far in my university history. Loved her classes, her lectures and her notes. She is pasionate and carring and loves her dogs. I would take another of her classes in a heartbeat!

Overall an amazing prof. Highly recommend her if you have the opportunity to take her classes! She does do lecture capture, but much more entertaining when you attend lecture. A lot of reading involved, but it's worth it.

Be prepared to draw, as it is a necessary part of the course. Lecture captures are a blessing for this course.

Favorite prof and class by far. Melanie is so interesting and loooves nutrition. So many chances to boost your mark in this class with basically 20% worth of Extra credit type stuff. Material is interesting but heavy so studying is necessary but it is so interesting. Going to class is in my opinion mandatory to pass, plus she is amazing!

Good prof, very good at explaining difficult concepts. She loves nutrition and it shows in her lectures. Attendance isn't mandaotory because she posts videos of all her lectures online. Overall, if you study and do the assignments you'll do good in this class.

She is the best professor I have come across! Her lectures are great and enticing because she is so passionate about nutrition. She also always accepts questions and is willing to reexplain things when needed. Because of Melanie, I have now want to go into nutrition!

Melanie loves teaching, and has great engaging notes. Read the text book to fill in the blanks from lecture notes. Textbook is basically another prof, learn from both. Quizzes are online, and easy. If you email her with a problem she'll reply asap. Quick teaching style. Pauses for questions so use that to your advantage. Would take again.

Melaine was a great instructor, she is very passionate about nutrition and makes the course enjoyable and interesting.

Professor Rozwadowski is so passionate about Nutrition, which makes it easy to get excited about the content. She is very clear with what she expects of her students. I took NUTR120 as an elective in my 4th year and personally I think it's pretty heavy for a first year class, but definitely do-able.

I never went to class (sorry Melanie!) BUT I watched all her lectures online. If you pay attention and learn from her lectures/take notes you will do well in the class. 95%-98% of exam material is covered in the lectures. She actually teaches the material, does not read slides! Passionate and makes you love learning! 10/10 !

Melanie is super passionate about nutrition, and makes her class very interesting and easy to apply to your own life! The textbook is needed, reading it definitely helps you understand everything a bit better. The discussion groups are DEFINITELY recommended, easy 10%. Her exams can be difficult, especially the final.

Melanie is a great prof! i loved taking nutrition with her, although her tests and lectures are heavy and the textbook is mandatory! if you put some work in it you can get a good grade.. make sure to do the 10% discussion groups it helps so much since the tests are heavy!

First of all, Melanie posts video recordings of all her lectures on BB, so attendance is not mandatory & you can do your notes on your own time. She is VERY knowledgeable & has a passion for nutrition that shows in the amount of detail she provides in lectures. This class isn't "easy" per se, it's very science-based, but you can get an A for sure!

She's the best prof I've ever had: enthusiastic, passionate, and knowledgeable! I was already somewhat interested in nutrition but her class turned my interest into a passion. It was by far the best class I've taken and very applicable to life, every class I would get my mind blown. I would HIGHLY recommend this course to anyone.

Melanie is an absolutely amazing professor! I came into the class not knowing what to expect since nutrition has never been a science studied in high school. But after taking this class, I can guarantee that you will love it. Her lectures are so captivating and interesting, and she gives room for questions in class. There is lecture capture too!

Melanie was my favorite prof that I encountered at the U of S. She does not just read off the slides and makes notes that students can follow. She uses lecture capture which is very useful. She can seem snarky towards the students and does expect that students are quiet and not on their phones. Held really helpful midterm review sessions as well.

Man. Prof Rozwadowski is a tough one. BUT... she delivers the material so well (which is a very broad science) and wants her students to do well. very meticulous, too. although the class was no doubt very tough, i thoroughly enjoyed it and i did learn so much from her. I read the text through and through, studied hard, and got an A. you should too

Melanie is passionate and knowledgeable about nutrition. I personally believe that her nutrition lectures are changing the lives of some of her students each year. This class will change your life. Exams are 100% multiple choice, there are easy weekly online quizzes that boost your grade. Also there is an option for extra credit.

One of the best profs I had in my 1.5 years so far. Her lectures are really good and the class itself is pretty interesting. I pretty much find every single class ever insanely boring but this one is okay. The material is really hard though, and it seems that stuff we never talked about appears on exams. But still a good class and good prof.

I really loved Nutr120 and I think the main reason was because of this amazing professor, she is so passionate about the material she teaches and presents information in a logical and clear way. I recommend doing the discussion groups for 10% and taking the time to read the textbook. Memorize everything in the notes and what she says.

Melanie is a fabulous professor who sparks interest in her students. Quite evident that she is passionate about her field, and her teaching reflects this. For a 1st year course, the material can be tricky to understand, so stay on top of text readings + lecture materials. Tests are fair, but challenging (examine the finer details).

MELANIE MADE 8:30 CLASSES BEARABLE !! The class was heavy but she made it very interesting. Did not just read off the slides and evident that she is very intelligent and is passionate about teaching! I would take her again 10/10

Her tests were very hard. Although you can tell shes passionate about what she is teaching so it makes it a bit better.

She's great. She is very professional and I found her to respond to emails fairly quick, especially given how many students are in her class. I took this course online and watched all of the lectures online. Her teaching style makes it easy for the student to take notes; important in her class. There's quite a bit of reading and work. Recommend tho

Melanie offers many opportunities to do better in class. Her class was very hard and heavy but doable. Join DG if you want to increase your marks. I learned a lot of useful information. She's very passionate about what she teaches. Even though lectures are recorded, still attend. Her tests are very, very hard and focuses on application situations.

Great prof, does an awesome job teaching through online lectures. Her lecture videos are interesting to watch and are engaging and make you want to learn. Very impressed.

This is one of the most informative and interesting classes I have ever taken. I can apply the information I have learned to my life every single day. She moves the class at a good pace and the work load is not overly heavy. As long as you watch her lectures and read the assigned readings you will have no issues in this class.

She has been very understanding for classes since we have been moved to online.

Melanie's class the best online class I had this semester. Although she doesn't post the slides, taking good notes is not difficult as her lectures are informative and most diagrams that she uses are found in the textbook. Quizzes were text based and fairly easy (best 8/11). The 4 midterms were a grind but not difficult. Would recommend.

There is lots of material to learn for this class, but Melanie does an excellent job of staying on track. Standards are high, but the homework is useful. If you keep up with the hw, the exams will be relevant. I skimmed most of the textbook readings, only do them if you don't understand something.

Ensure you watch the lectures. Professor Rozwadowski gives very detailed lectures but a lot of them were about drawing internal structures/organs and that's very hard to do online. She also sent out an email saying that recording more lectures is a "waste of her time" which indicated that she did not care that much about this class.

Melanie put in the most effort of all my professors to make sure her online class was as close to in-person as possible. Her work ethic is unparalleled. She is organized and has a tough exterior, but is very fair and accommodating if unforeseen circumstances arise. Work half as hard as her and you'll get an A.

I had her 2 yrs ago. But I came here to say that I rly loved her as a prof. The content was extremely well-explained. She took complex concepts & broke them down so they were easier to understand. If things are the same, you HAVE to go to class. If she teaches it, it's prob on the test. If there's a textbook, she will make 2-3 questions from there!

She was awesome. Probably the best and most well designed course I have ever taken. She explains things very well. Have never enjoyed a prof more. She genuinely cares for students and there are plenty of opportunities to improve your grade. Exams and Quizzes are very fair, just pay attention to the details during her lectures. Very reasonable prof

She's a very nice lady who genuinely cares about her students, and overall I liked this class. I did find that there's quite a bit of reading, so to do well in this class, you need to stay on schedule. The only thing I didn't really like was how there were quizzes every week and multiple midterms, but that's just my preference.

I loved Melanie! Super passionate & good at explaining complex topics. You need to spend $70 to get an account to write quizzes which sucks, but I barely touched my textbook (I prob should have though). If discussion groups are optional, JOIN THEM. easiest 10% of my grade ever.

A really good professor, and genuinely cares about students doing well, just a lot of content to get through. JOIN THE DISCUSSION GROUPS, the easiest 10% I've ever received. Keep up with readings or you will fall behind very quickly.

Makes the lectures very interesting and answers all the questions students would ask. Really made you work hard in this class. Content heavy and lots of reading. Lots of quizzes (10), midterms (3), and a very long final. After completing this course you learn a lot of useful and applicable information about overall health, diet, and nutrition.

Lectures were very long, I didn't go. Weekly quizzes based 100% on the textbook, 1-3 chapters at a time. You HAVE to buy a brand new textbook to get a 1 time use code for the quizzes. Wasn't a huge fan of the midterm and final. Kind of hard for a first year class... I've taken 3rd year classes easier than this, Just content heavy and weird exams.

Her midterm was difficult (class average of 58%) However, if you understand the concepts in her lectures, you'll do just fine. I don't have time to complete all the textbook readings each week. The midterm was based on her lectures. Listening to her recorded lectures at a slow pace is what helped me excel on the midterm. She is engaging and funny.

Melanie is a good person, she's nice & sweet. She gives you lots of resources to make sure you know what you're doing. But in all honesty, I got maybe 10% of the textbook readings done, it's just way too much. She posts her lecture recordings on Canvas so it was nice to have those. Probably my hardest 1st-year class.

Melanie is an amazing professor. A lot of the poor ratings from Nutrition 120 students are from first years who don't appreciate that she does not hand out marks but rather encourages learning unlike any other prof I have had. Her lectures are inspiring and she has taught me more in a semester than any other university course I have taken.

One of the best professors I've had. Loved NUTR 120, and loved NUTR 322 even more. Created an environment where it was easy to learn and retain content. There are lots of readings and time, but Melanie points you to the key points. Tests were fair, and so much feedback is given to help improve for the next one. Put in the work and it will pay off!

Melanie goes above and beyond to explain material in her lectures. I appreciate that she showed emotion when teaching something she was passionate about. She does not hand out grades; you must study the material outside of class to understand. This class has taught me how to study and work for my grades properly. Her class has taught me so much.

Definitely would recommend this class. The professor was so caring towards her students. You get to know so much from this course.

Melanie is an amazing prof! Makes getting up early for an 8:30 am lecture way easier when the prof is actually passionate and super educated about their material, and it is very clear how compassionate she is towards her students. Very welcoming overall! Will definitely be taking Melanie's classes again!

Professor Rozwadowski is amazing and I appreciated that she always took the time to answer ALL of my questions, she teaches in a way that is interactive and informative and is very funny. I have learned many things that will benefit me both academically and personally, thank you Professor Rozwadowski for being so amazing at what you do.

She is a very good prof and really gives you all the resources you need if you want to do really well. It isn't a super easy class and she really tests on everything but if you go to lectures and study an average amount you will do fine. She really knows her stuff and explains concepts well. I also appreciated that she recorded all her lectures.

Melanie is an amazing prof. If you work hard and study in her class, you will do well. This class really teaches you how to study and you can tell she is passionate about what she teaches. She goes through notes slowly and makes sure people understand what she said before moving on. This class isn't a grade booster, however it's super interesting!

Melanie challenges students to apply their learning and go beyond what is mentioned in lectures. I took away so much information from this class regarding the content and how to study and write exams. The class might seem intimidating at first, but it was a great class, would take again. Get the textbook! It flows very nicely alongside lectures.

Professor Rozwadowski was a good professor. She is very knowledgeable. This is very heavy and includes a lot of information but it is all interesting. Her lectures are recorded which is great for reviewing them. The midterms and test are tough so make sure you study well! She is nice.

I honestly was surprised how much I enjoyed this class due to the reviews that were left. Her exams definitely test your knowledge but if you study well, they are fine. She says the textbook is required, but tests really only focused on lecture material. Would not recommend as a elective though

- Lectures, either going in person or viewing online, are essential. Dr. Rozwadowski elaborates on the textbook content and offers insights and additional information to the textbook. Listen to the lecture instead of copying the slides; quick, efficient note-taking is essential. Read the textbook and come prepared. First years: take this in year 2.

Amazing professor. Midterms are straight to point. Not too much memorization as long as you're keeping up with content. Lectures are recorded just in case class is missed. Gives good explanations to help students understand the course material.

Everyone is being so dramatic about the course and about melanie. The course was probably one of my easier courses in STEM and melanie always covered what would be on the exams. I would suggest going to class as you'd just have to watch her lectures to get all the notes down anyways. DO THE DISCUSSION GROUPS!

Very kind prof she comes off as scary to some but that's because she's taught this course for years and wants everyone to do well. Tou must read the textbook otherwise you will fail. The final was much easier than the midterms. I feared I was going to fail the class as it is content heavy and lots of numbers and names to memorize but I got through!

Very nice professor with informative lectures. It is very possible to get an A in this class if you show up and read the textbook!

The truth is she is a great professor. She wants students to succeed and how she approaches that is through tough work and effort. Melania prepares you for the reality as not every class is a easy credit. She encourages to do your own research on the topic as well as study continuously throughout the term. Take her classes.

bruh the way ppl were dogging on her and talking about this class like it was rocket science is crazy. this course aint even allat. never read the textbooks + just took notes on the recordings and scored a 90 on the midterm.

It was a lot of memorizing, if you took the discussion group it was a saving grace fr it literally boosted my mark so good. I have anxiety and hate talking but they were nice. Her tests did include tiny details that were like come on how am I supposed to know. But, I did like her as a person, studied really hard for second midterm and did good:)
