Neuroscience

I loved this course with Dr. Cave. This was my third class with him and I just think he is one of the best professors I have ever had. Lectures are a large part of his class, and he is a very clear and engaging lecturer and always takes questions and wants us to love the material as much as he does. This was BY FAR the most interesting class I have ever taken at Midd- I found the topics to be so fascinating and I wanted to keep knowing more about them. While his exams are difficult, they are reasonable and you can do well if you pay attention in class and go talk to him about the stuff you don't understand. There are weekly homework questions to aid the lectures. The labs with this class are also so fun, you get to do a lot of experiments involving mice and rats and using things we learn in lecture towards the experiments. I have so many positive things to say about this class and while it has to do with the material, it mainly has to do with Dr. Cave and his awesome teaching.

This class was entirely group work, so be prepared for that. There were no exams, a creative midterm project, two group presentations, and a final mock-grant. Crocker is a fair grader and if you show that you put in a good amount of effort, you will receive a good grade in this class. The material was super interesting, and I highly recommend this course for anyone interested in genetic disorders or neuroscience.

I love Professor Parker, I think she is a great instructor and is very good at making difficult content digestible. She prints out all her slides for you before every class so you can write what she says, which at times can be very fast-paced but the content is extremely interesting. If you go to her office hours to ask about information you might've missed, she is very happy to catch you up. For exams, she sends you a list of 20 ish possible open-ended questions she will ask. If you study well the content of these questions and practice answering them, you will do fine on the exams. Her open-ended questions are easy if you use the information she sends you, and her multiple choice can be tricky but manageable. I would 100% take this course with her again.
