BME 2104

Interesting material but nonetheless a dissapointing class

Guilford is one of the best professors in the department. He is extremely knowledgeable on the material and he makes wonderful slides to explain all of the concepts. You will learn a lot in his class, but his tests tend to be on the tricky side even with his slides, but they are still doable. Overall, a better class than most.

challenging, gilford's lectures are recorded and put online. never went to class and still did well

Look at the grade distribution. Notice how there is a DRASTIC drop in how many As were granted this past semester? That was Guilford making his class more "difficult" by giving fewer As although the students presented the same quality of work as previous years. How nice.

Overall a very worthwhile class. There are no midterms, but quick ten question quizzes every class. There is one paper due at the end of the course, but plenty of helpful revisions are given.

This class is probably one of the most interesting classes that I have ever taken. There are no midterms but there is a clicker quiz every class. He teaches cell biology by tying it into a disease or real-world application.

This was a great class, beginning Spring 2009 we didn't have any midterms, just a quiz every day, which made the class much easier to stay on top of, and you learn a lot. There's a significant group review paper that's due at the end of the semester and takes a lot of time, but it's worth it to put the added effort in and get a good grade.

Very informative and interesting class. Guilford does a great job explaining difficult concepts and the class is very fair. The research paper is a lot of work but definitely doable.

Decent class. You learn a lot of information but it is kind of dry. Daily quizzes which are each worth 2% of your overall grade. Just study the slides he presents in class and you will do fine. There is one HUGE paper worth 40% of your grade. Don't put it off till the last minute.

Quizzes, Quizzes, Quizzes, and more Quizzes. When you take this class I hope you're in the mood for quizzes. You have one every class and it counts for 50% of grade. 40% is a paper that takes mad hours of research and writing to do. And the last measly 10% is of course a multiple choice final exam and don't think for a second that he won't give you your last quiz on the same day as your final! Good class if you like mad work to do for three credits, but then again you have to take the class if your biomed. Karen was great though.
