Not an easy A but Dr Bard was an excellent professor. I found him very helpful and knowledgable. I gained an interest in genetics because of his enthusiasm about the subject. Everyone has a LOT of respect for Dr Bard.

Comment:
Not an easy class but Dr. Bard is fair and keeps things interesting. Do the assigned readings and sample problems and attend class (he gives random attendance points) and you'll do fine. Math content starts heavy with the first test and decreases through the last. Overall, a good professor, would definitely sit another class with him.

I thought the course provided a well rounded study of genetics including molecular, cellular and many other types of genetics. This class has only deepened my interest in Genetics and I would enjoy taking another course from him.

To succeed in the class, go to lecture and listen to istream to make sure you have everything he says in class and do the homework problems he assigns and you will get an A. He gave 7 extra credit points during the semester for going to lecture. He can ramble on sometimes, but overall he is a great teacher.

prof Bard is very helpful and an enthusiastic instructor. The material isn't easy and requires work but class is more enjoyable than I thought.

This was a hard class and no easy A but Dr. Bard did a good job explaining a difficult subject. I found him accessible to answer difficult questions. Everyone who put time and effort into the class received and A or B. The people who did not receive and A or B took the class as an easy A and never put in the much needed effort.

He is a difficult teacher to have. Deals with lots of powerpoint slides. Sometime very unclear. Found it very hard to approach him for questioning.Overall I wish there was another genetics teacher!

Comment:
I was originally looking forward to this class, and it was true disappointment in the end. Dr. Bard makes exams which are virtually unrealistic and can be rude to students who are trying to clarify content before he moves on. His powerpoints are nonsensical and his lectures are very unorganized. I wish I had taken Malkova for Genetics.

You want to do well...Do this in this order...listen to istream. do problem sets. do assigned problems. Read assigned chapters. That should put you in the A-B range at least.
