Microbiology was definitely one of the most interesting courses I have ever taken and that's thanks to Wade. Her way of teaching is so great! And she makes learning Microbiology so fun. Lab was always something to look forward to. And she somehow knows everyone's name! Definitely a memorable teacher, she honestly care for her students.

This was the best class I have ever had and the world's best Professor! You should take Micro with her just for fun that's how good she is! You need to buy her notes from the bookstore but you do not need the textbook, though it seemed helpful for some as a supplement. Attendance isn't mandatory but you should show up if you want to do well!

BIO033 is a hefty course. Even though she states it's a self paced class, it's definitely not especially with the due dates she has on the assignments. I would recommend treating this class as if it's two because there's a lot of assignments per chapter and if you want to stay on top of it, do one chapter a week.

Uses the publisher's learning system so she doesn't have to teach or do anything. It's an easy class but with a crazy amount of assignments so time management is key

Pretty easy going class. There are only a few due dates through out the semester where a few weeks worth of assignments are due. All of the work is in Cengage so the professor doesn't really teach.

Dr Wade is amazing. Took her for Micro, its a lot of work and I really mean that. Id say maybe over 200 assignments, but that does not mean its hard. You can reattempt every assignment until you get full credit excluding quizzes and exams. Even on the quiz she lets you check your answer. Easy A show up do the work dont fall behind.

Dr Wade was very informative and everything came from her personal notes that she wrote on the board herself and each student just copied. Everything on the test came from the her notes. She also made lab very fun!!

Prof. was alright. The whole course is on MindTap, and she sends reminders about "sugg." deadlines,comp. issue solu. , etc. Arguably, too many announcements, but I digress. The sugg. vs actual deadlines were nice tho. Easy to fall behind, suggested one chapter per week, 3 actual deadlines. A lot of work and reading, + 5 discussion q's.
