Catherine Combelles
BIOL
Super cool group style learning. I feel I learned much more than I would have in a traditional lecture style class. There is definitely less time with the professor than a typical class, so office and TA hours can be extremely useful.
A lot of outside of class work but as long as you keep up with everything and work with your class team and TA during the lecture period, you'll do fine. Combelles is super sweet and definitely loves the material so she will help you understand through whatever means necessary.
This course wasn't too hard, but Professor Combelles's teaching style made it very difficult to learn anything. Class time was spent working in groups answering questions, but I feel as though it did not give me a good foundation in biology.
