Jeremy Ward
BIOL
Professor Ward is one of my favorite people at this school. While he does have a tendency to get on tangents about all of the cool scientists he has met throughout his (very impressive) career, the stuff that we talked about in this class in this class was super interesting. It is essentially Cell Bio on steroids. There were no exams this semester, just problem sets, which was a gift from Jeremy, and I genuinely think I learned more because of it. Do I think this course prepared me well for Med School? Probably not. Did I enjoy it and learn a lot? Yes. Jeremy made a genuine effort to get to know me as a person and ask questions about what was going on in my life, which I greatly appreciated. Also, the lab component of this class is super confusing at times but also super chill and self driven. I definitely recommend taking any class (but especially this one) with Jeremy if you get the chance.

Class lectures were super interesting but had little relevancy to the actual material on the exams. Better off reading the book than attending lecture. Exams were fair and consisted of multiple choice and short answer sections. Super friendly guy who knows his stuff.
Professor Ward is the best. He makes the nitty gritty material super engaging and will also help you with life guidance and advising even if he isn't your advisor. Go to his office hours to make a personal connection and I'm sure you will benefit.
