Comment:
Randy is the best prof at StFX. He is known for marking tough and for having high expectations and alot of people who aren't willing to put in the work will complain about him. His exams are hard, he makes that clear so its not a shock. His lectures are amazing and his passion for biology is inspiring. I loved every minute of being his student

My favorite instructor at the school. He's a good enough all-around guy and fantastic instructor to make up for the difficult tests. Extremely helpful, and extremely hilarious. He's really passionate about what he teaches.

Comment:
This guy is a nutcase! Don't drink water in his class (even if your about to die) or else he'll freak out in front of everyone! In his opening lecture he says "okay" about 100 times. And if your late, don't bother going, or else he'll make you feel like an idiot. Be very afraid of the lab exam.

Extremely helpful in and out of lab. Lab exams are hard, but not unreasonable. Just know your stuff and you'll be fine.

I think randy may have been the only prof i hated at X, at least for a while. I was getting good marks in all my other courses, but in his courses my marks just sucked. If uncertain , he always assumes you are wrong, rather than right.

Comment:
The lab for 304 is brutal b/c Randy expects you to know why everything happens without actually telling you, so you either have to get someone's notes or go ask him ALOT of questions. The lab midterm/exam is very difficult-I usually get 80's and 90's and I got a 60 on the midterm!! Advice: make sure you understand EVERYTHING in the lab!

Probably too hard. Lab is boring and the relevance of the lab topics are highly questionable. Thankfully Brankenbury is a breeze.
