    Quarter Taken: Fall 2020 Online
    Grade: A

    It was pretty easy as long as you keep on top of things. A lot of it is built off of high school bio, but I took this online so some things could have been different. Tests are harder than you expect but nothing crazy.

    The tests are heavily based on the diagrams reviewed. Not so much in the textbook itself.

    class was alright, overall the 7 series class structure isn't for me personally but I know others really liked it

    I hate, hate, hate the LS 7 series. The classes were pretty useless, but participate is mandatory. There's a lot of busywork, but it is overall not that hard if you just do the work and complete the extra credit. Overall, I would say that taking it with Lazazzara was pretty tough because she didn't explain the concepts super clearly, but that could also be a fault of the entire structure of the LS 7 series. TBH, don't take it unless it's necessary for your major.
