Comment:
Do not take this class for Gen Bio unless you really are into biology and have no other classes to study for. His lectures are boring and long, most of the test material isn't even covered He does not care about the students in gen bio all he cares about are his upper level classes I have not missed one single class and i'm still struggling to pass

Comment:
Tests are extremely hard, the lectures would be very interesting if only this professor did not spend 20 minutes per slide, it looses the attention of the class very quickly. He cares about his upper level classes, but in Gen Bio, he is extremely unhelpful. Do not take for Gen Bio.

Comment:
I would highly recommend that you do NOT take this course. Dr. Caire has been one of the least caring professors I have ever had. His class is way too hard and he expects you to be an expert on EVERYTHING before you take the class. Attendance is mandatory, and class is boring. Also, I am a very diligent student and I still did not do well.

Comment:
Dr.Caire should stick to teaching upper level classes..He is way to difficult of a teacher when it comes to a General Bio. class. You don't really need the book if you take good notes! The test were HARD, about 100 questions each time. AND NO quizzes. The homework was so simple but I think he could have toned down the difficulty of the exams.

This professor is amazing! Class is easy as long as you take notes from powerpoints. Do go to class he does take attendance points. His tests are easy and short all multiple choice. I love his stories as well they brighten my day. This class has truly made my interest in biology go way up!

Comment:
if you have no other classes, you will do extremely well in this class. If you are taking mammalogy and other science classes. Drop or dont even think about it. His class is easy but, time consuming. The test are short but the information you need to know is pages pages long. A thick 3 inch binder you will need. Skinning rats, moles, and etc.

He is a great teacher one of the best at UCO. If you still need to take bio take it with him. Attendance is not mandatory but you will miss the notes which makes up the majority of the test that you will have.

Great teacher! Take really good notes and do his key word worksheets and you can easily make an A. Attendance is not mandatory but 90% of his test are straight from notes. He makes silly jokes but shows his love for Biology and it becomes contagious!I would recommend him to anyone!

Biometrics: If you are going into research, medical school, whatever, you should definitely take this class! It's so useful, I cannot believe it's not required. It's not the most interesting class, but before this class I couldn't understand the statistical portion of research papers, but now it's crystal clear!

Attendance not mandatory, but you will miss notes. Don't need the book, everything is from his notes. Tests are pretty hard so be prepared to set aside time to study if you want to make a good grade. Final is comp but he gives back old tests so you can study them. He is very helpful and nice. Not too hard to make a B if you put forth effort.

He was a good teacher , but he was very hard. i got a C in his class i ended up with a 79 and didn't bump me up. he is very nice and did learn a lot, but he should be teaching bio for majors. he is very smart and will help you out. with more effort i could of had a B. dont buy the book, its all from notes. NO Attendance but you will miss the notes.

Great professor loves to teach and it's obvious. Tests are all multiple choice but very hard because he covers alot of material like several chapters before the first test. Very very helpful though take notes they help!!

The best professor I've ever had, and I'm a senior. He is so helpful, so friendly, and so knowledgable. He genuinely wants everyone to have an A in his class, but very few do, at least in the intro class. But he is always there to help you.

Biometrics-I'm DONE! Statistcs class with a biology spin. Unfortunately the information in this class is becoming more important as some programs are requiring it. Be ready to not like the class. Dr. Caire is a true biologist and genuinely cares about his students. This was the most boring science class I've ever taken. Only take if you have to!!!

Great person, very smart. Lots and lots and lots and lots of notes. Helpful if you ask him. Be prepared to study, as you would in any upper division class. Attendance isn't manditory, but you better be there or you will never catch up, so much to learn. Lab is alot of memorization.
