    The lifesci 7 series is known to be difficult but this professor is very resourceful and genuinely wants all of his students to get the best grade possible. I would recommend him alot

    overall, dr. pham did a great job of teaching the class and was very attentive to the students' learning. the only thing about this class is that the wording of the tests is weird, so be sure to watch out for that.

    Quarter Taken: Summer 2022 Online
    Grade: A

    Took it online over summer. Was pretty condensed and had some weird concepts to learn. Plenty of resources to help out though and tests were very fair. Received an A after a good amount of work. Course felt like it started super slow and then went lightspeed second week or so. Came away learning a good amount, but forgot a good amount as well because of the small period of time I learned the material in.

    I found this class to be the least interesting of he 7 series, but Pham is a good professor

    Honestly surprised I did OK in this class, considering how ass all the midterms went for me (and, like, everyone else). Try to get to know the material as well as you can but don't beat yourself up if you fall for trick questions on the exam. It's still possible to do well. Really, really miss that boost of 50/50 individual and group exams from 7a...

    Pham is able to clearly answer any questions you have and he's very knowledgable about the course
