Student reviews of Mark Kirkpatrick
Review from a student who took BIO 370
Worst professor I've ever had. There was no textbook, and the material wasn't terribly hard, but he lost me with his grading. He says he wants freely expressed answers, but if you don't write down nearly word for word what's on the answer key, you will lose almost all points. He gives partial credit, but if your answer is 95% correct, you'll get 5% of the credit. If you disagree with his grading, he will take more points away. He ruined what should have been a fun, informative class.
