I took this class with Solhaug, and it was super chill. All exams were take-home, and you could get away with not doing too much reading and still pass the class. He did kind of ask for a lot with the side projects, and he did require attendance on certain days.

Professor Spatafora is very knowledgeable and as a result she flys through the class material. At times her lectures jump around which made it hard to follow and I would have struggled had I not taken AP biology and already had a solid understanding of the material. The exams were difficult even after studying a lot because of the style of multiple choice. There was not much homework but on exam/quiz weeks I put in a lot of time which counterbalanced the other weeks where there was very little work for the class. I would recommend this course if you want to have a very solid understanding of cell bio, but not if you want an easy version of the course. I learned a lot.
