Attendance is technically not mandatory but there are in class activities you turn in SOMETIMES, the tests have a lot of questions with little time, the tests didn't seem too hard for me as long as you go over the textbook, since you take the tests from the textbook's website.

Pariza is a really sweet teacher! She really does want all her students to succeed. I had to study my butt off for the exams because we had very limited time. Make sure you do learning curves because they are really helpful!

Nice professor, but the class was boring most of the time. Lecture-Heavy reads off slides and goes really quickly. I advise you to take notes before the lecture. Do not buy the physical book!!! Save your money, you will not need it. Quizlet game, an opportunity for extra credit before an exam. The exams are exactly like Learning Curve assignments.

She is a pretty good teacher, but she gives NO time for tests. Basically in this class there is a total of 3 exams online. Keep in mind its about 50 questions with only 55 minutes, that is actually very little time if you didnt study, so STUDY. Other than that, she answers emails within 24-48 hours, and those offer a few extra credit assignments!

Hard class. The lectures aren't very helpful, so you end up teaching yourself most of the material.

She's really nice, however it was so hard to pay attention. She just read off the slides most of the time. I stopped showing up to class, did all my readings and activities and I did just fine. Just make sure you do well on your midterms/finals and you will secure the A.

This class is pretty easy. The material is quite similar to that of high school bio. You use an online textbook and do all the homework and exams online. You honestly don't need to show up to class and can simply read the book online if you're confident in basic bio. A lot of the exam questions can also be found on quizlet.

I tried really hard to pay attention but somehow I would find myself falling asleep in her lectures. All homeworks and test are online also powerpoints so its really pointless to go to class. I got a B and attended her class around 5 times the whole semester. Basically I tough myself. Jazbi is a really nice person tries to make it fun sometimes.

The amount of time the professor gives for online exams should be a little longer. The professor barley gave extra credit and was not a great lecturer. Passive quiet voice made it hard to enjoy the lecture. Homework and readings are done online.

Parisa Jazbi is an okay professor. Not my favorite professor but she knows what she's talking about. Lectures every single class with lots of information. She talks and goes through slides super fast but her powerpoints are all on canvas to look back on later.

Im not sure why Professor Jazbi has received so many poor reviews. You have to put in the time to get the grade you want, don't be lazy, ask questions-you'll be fine. Super sweet

Dont listen to the reviews because there only from people who most likely did not try. Prof Jazbi is nice, knowledgeable & cares about her students. I attended office hours and she'd help me with my questions. this is a class you need to work for however it is very doable. Bio isnt even my major and i still did well. study guides are eh but its ok

Comment:

(Continuing from previous review): The study guides are vague & doesn't inform you on things you should focus on. Some students earned A's in the class bc they are really smart & independent self-taught learners. Other students, we need a little more detail & guidance. Good study guides have helped me earn A's & it would have helped a lot here.

Comment:

I've just read other students' reviews on her & the class. It is a challenging class but put in a lot of time & focus then you may achieve A or B grade. Professor Jazbi: I felt disconnected from her overall teaching. Her study guide was HORRIBLE. It was not a realistic study guide. All she did was copy & paste chapter topic titles from the book.

So there was homework every week. For exams and quizzes she would give you an idea of what will be on the quiz. The homework is alright there would be easy or hard questions. Read before class and you should be alright.
