Comment:
The online version of the course is pretty challenging already and heavy on the details, but it was made even more difficult by the lack of accessibility to the teaching team. Grading is highly variable based on the TA you get and when you ask questions Dr. Szewczuk is extremely rude and dismissive. Would not recommend at all!

Eek. Take good notes, and really go over the material well. He doesn't teach it clearly, so try to be as thorough as you can while studying.

Good prof!In order to do well in the course, you have to attend every lecture so you won't miss any possible exam material.The quizzes are fairly easy.The midterm was not too bad.The final contains all the material from the beginning and about the same difficulty as the midterm.

Comment:
I think some of these comments are a bit harsh, in my opinion he is the easiest of the three profs who teach the course in terms of exam questions. midterm class average was 85 which was exceptional, however final was much harder and class average ended up being a 79. almost 70% of the class got above a 80. strict memorization, study whats in bold!

Comment:
The class was boring, but the notes package was extremely useful when studying (I didn't buy, nor look at the textbook and still ended getting an A with little effort). There is a ton of memorization, and little material that would spark your interest in the subject.

I thought the course would be interesting. It was not. He was totally boring. Probably the worst prof I have ever had. He made you feel like an idiot if you went for extra help. Really bad....

went to his office to ask him about some questions and my low mark and all he wanted to do was talk about how world famous he was? His lectures were like watching paint dry or having your balls sandpapered.

Comment:
He told us a retrovirus was based on going in and out of a cell. He is a complete moron. He even looks like one. He gives out candy to all the girls. He is the worst prof I have ever had. How can Queen's allow him to teach.

Comment:
He seems like he wants to help you when you ask him questions. His final exam is soooooo easy since it is 80% similiar to the past exams!!! He just changed some questions (i.e. instead of T-cell, he will ask about B-cell in the same question format.) He is very very nice, and he likes to give students chances! Ooh...lectures are very interesting!!

Tough course, a lot of in-depth material, brutal midterm. But if you go see him outside of class he's awesome and will explain anything, even if it's a dumb question.

Comment:
This class had the potential to be interesting, but Dr. Szewczuk is not very clear and is so boring that I feel like cutting off my arm and hitting myself with it just to stay awake. Exams are tough, know your stuff. WebCT quizzes are pretty easy. If you go in to see him, he makes you feel dumb.

I wish I'd known about the repeat questions on past exams! The final is really hard! In class, he's nice. In person, he makes you feel absolutely stupid and isn't very helpful.
