NOT good, bunch of works, unorganized, you have to keep your eyes on every single pattern, otherwise you'll miss some assignment and discussion. and you have to do presentation and slides and exam in one course. Take it before you think about it,but Lara is a nice prof. thoBIOT5145 2025-12-14 04:21:17 +0000 UTC
She doesn't teaches well but grades ok.BIOT5145 2024-11-13 13:20:08 +0000 UTC
Always come late Will cancer the exam in the last minute Over relay on the TABIOT5145 2024-09-19 21:38:21 +0000 UTC
Lab course PHSC7010: Showed incredible unprofessionalism, will cancel lab last minute or just won't show up and let the TA carry. Will purposely jeopardize experiments and you will have to figure out what went wrong. Get defensive when asked questions by students. Pulled students out to the hall to do oral quiz for no reason (it wasn't even graded)BIOT5145 2024-03-16 04:12:30 +0000 UTC
During her all the lab session we never got proper results of experiments, I lost confidence I will not be a good scientist. She gave us wrong media not suitable for cell line all of the cells died she told we are doing it for the first so there might contamination, I saw one TA adding water into reagent bottle because they ran out of the reagent.BIOT5145 2023-03-16 18:33:22 +0000 UTC
Her final exam traumatize me, it was about a data analysis problem that we have never learned, she even never post any instructions but expect you to self-learn within the 1 hour exam. And guess what? The average was 54% after curved. Her quiz are always some random things that are unexpected. Just stay away from her if you have choice!!!BIOT5145 2023-01-13 02:43:15 +0000 UTC
She allots you 15 minutes for quizzes, but 5 of that is the TA reading the questions to you for you to write down. She doesn't prepare the lab adequately and claims Northeastern is too "poor" for proper equipment. Gives condescending responses to any question asked.BIOT5145 2022-01-24 07:12:23 +0000 UTC
