Pros: Bio 171: Easy Research Paper, Everything needed to know for the exams are on the slides and essays "tend" to be from discussion HW, Learn a lot!
Cons: Bio 171: Homework in Discussion is irritating,
Picky at grading the Essay Questions on exams because they are looking for specific wording and some of the multiple choice questions are tricky.
This review is for Bio 171 but the course wasn't listed as an option. Professor OConnor is always willing to help and wants students to succeed.

Cons: Worst professor in the history of college. Is even worse in small groups than in lecture. The class is terrible because the questions are asked in order to mess you up. DO NOT TAKE THIS GUY'S CLASS
