Awesome

He is an amazing teacher, and I HIGHLY suggest him. He doesnt truly require a lot of work outside of class, yet you should work on the off chance that you truly need An in the class. Going to SI sessions is overly useful, and talks are essential to the class. He likewise gives arbitrary additional credit only for coming to class, so ensure you go!!!

Prof. Taf is very passionate about teaching and he helped me understand the concepts better! He makes the powerpoint available online which are also taken straight from textbook information. BIOL112 isn't the most interesting subject, but he made it tolerable.

Prof. Tag focuses his class on lectures and material from the book. He genuinely cares about his students and he is my favorite biology professor. He is very accessible in his office hours and will take time to discuss everything you don't understand. He is a great guy. If you go to class, he gives extra points.

Professor tag was a really good instructor for a really difficult class. Lecture portion was tough and the laboratory was by far the toughest in his class. He really engaged us students in his lectures. You for sure have to work for your grades in his class. However, I think he was a good option. He hasn't curved, but hopefully, he will make the exception because of Laboratory 112.

Professor Tag is a good teacher. Tests aren't that hard as long as you pay attention during lecture. Don't forget to take notes on the comments he mentioned that are not on the slides, as they will sometimes appear as test questions.

Professor Tag is very exceptional. You can see that he cares about the information he teaches his students. I suggest that try to get all the little points from the problem sets and pre-laboratory quizzes since they really do count in the end.

Professor Tag was a great instructor during my first semester at Texas A&M University. He gives truly informative lectures and has made all his students more interested in biology. Although many students did not raise their hands in class, he encouraged it and was really receptive to those who did. In addition, his practice exams were very similar in style to the actual test.

Professor Tag's final exams were strange because he said that the finals will be 50/50 composed of the new and old materials. However, it's a lie. For both the Biology 111 and 112 finals, 99% was from the new material. To be honest, I rarely paid attention in the lecture, but I still got an A. Just read the TB and go through his presentation slides and you'll be fine for the tests.

I had Professor Tag for Biology 111 and 112. Fortunately, I got an A in both of those classes. His exams were quite challenging but not impossible. Just go through his presentation slides and read some of the free and online TB if needed. On the other hand, I had a problem I have with his exams though. Sometimes, it covers 95% of one chapter and the rest of the other material. It really surprises me.

Professor Tag is amazing. I had him for Biology 111 and 112. I got an A+ in both semesters. His lectures may be a little quick, but he covers all the material he puts into the exams. He gives optional practice tests beforehand as well, which really helps. SI was a great help in general, but it was never necessary to secure an A.

Biology is not the easiest subject. It requires a lot of effort to learn all the material. Unfortunately, Professor Tag reads mostly from his PowerPoints. So, I find it easier to learn by watching review videos and skimming the PowerPoints he posted. He cares and wants everyone to succeed though. But be sure you don't get left behind.
