I made this thread for Genetics students here on TWW. We can exchange information regarding the course, especially the REPORTS. By doing so and corroborating on a regular basis, we shall all get an A I believe. Nobody communicates via WebCT vista, so I thought this may be of help.

Next Report is 4 and 5. I am starting on report 4.

What do you guys think?

those lab reports are hell

2/21/2006 3:24:59 PM

i'm down on group work...

2/21/2006 11:51:40 PM

yeah lets do those stupid hwks together and get full credit.
i keep missing points here and there

2/22/2006 7:40:58 AM

hey, persian, you were in both my religion 407/408 classes. LOL.

Yeah we should all work. Freakin' 1000 points for a 1 credit class?

2/22/2006 9:23:54 AM

It irritates me how those taking the lab with the TA have it so much easier than those taking the lab with Gardner

Reports 4, 5 and a midterm due next week?! That's ridiculous!

2/22/2006 1:44:33 PM

nosir. its no easy with a TA.

we have the same shit as you guys.

some people just tend to know how to BS more

2/22/2006 4:20:59 PM

i killed so many flies and c. elegans in that lab...

2/22/2006 4:27:29 PM

bttt

2/26/2006 11:11:59 PM

Better memorize your formulas for constructing a loci chart (r1, r2, C, etc.) I had forgotten to do that and it probably cost me the better part of 20 pts, oh well fuck it.

2/27/2006 1:48:41 PM

hey ryan what was on the midterm besides the mapping you mentioned?

I am working on the lab reports as of now. I will try to post if anyone is willing to!

2/27/2006 7:25:21 PM

hey does anyone want to get together tonight to work on these freakin' lab reports
and what's on the midterm? i have a biochem test this week too.....i am so gonna die this week

2/27/2006 7:49:56 PM

I can't say anything else in here since Dr. Gardner specifically said not to disclose information on the test, and I don't want to violate acadmeic integrity. Accordingly, I won't say anything else in this thread about it.

2/27/2006 10:15:09 PM

I think some professors need to review the course credits and degree of work involved... This is a one credit hour course and I feel the workload they're asking us to do for this course is ridiculous. This lab has got to be the worst lab I've ever taken in all of the labs I've taken for my biological sciences degree (I graduate in May).

2/27/2006 10:29:41 PM

Hanykypank is sooo right!!!....I graduate in May as well and this lab sucks ASS. We should at least get 3 credits for it. The midterm is harder than the original genetics class. This lady is on a power trip, take it easy woman, its only a freakin' LAB.

2/28/2006 8:25:19 AM

Academic Integrity?

Oh, yeah that is right, I posted the answers to the fill in the blanks, and where is the integrity in COPYING???? Dude, come on! Don't use these covert sayings, we know you did bad!

I think you guys need to relax, even though i know it is hard, but face it, it is only 1 credit, so if you get an A, B, C, it is either 4 points, 3 points, 2 points total (e.g. 4 X 1 credit=4points).

Indeed this lab is loathsome.

2/28/2006 10:26:39 AM

so can anyone help me with report 4 and 5?
if so aim me plz. i promise you won't be disapointed.

2/28/2006 8:36:52 PM

hey everyone... all I'm sayin is... watch what you say on here. A few points on a lab isn't gonna be worth it if the wrong person finds this thread.

3/1/2006 10:04:16 PM

Still a shitty-ass lab. I absolutely dread going to this lab.

3/1/2006 10:24:46 PM

yeah this is absolutely ridiculous for a 1 credit hour lab. I have not taken genetics so I don't really feel on top of this stuff especially when she lectures for an hour and a half going on and on with new material.

3/1/2006 11:11:34 PM

I was in the library working about 4 hours on the reports, but still to no avail in solving them....

3/2/2006 1:24:09 AM

why are they both so picky about grading (Emigh and Gardner). I thought Knopp was bad until I came to Emigh's class, and then I thought Emigh was bad until I met Gardner. Uggh!

3/2/2006 12:20:07 PM

anyone workin on report 6?

3/16/2006 8:32:51 PM

turned mine in yesterday.

not actually all that bad once you sit down and read it.

sucks that i waited til the last second

3/17/2006 10:45:41 AM

anyone done lab report 10?

the first half wasnt bad, cant figure the 2nd half

4/20/2006 12:33:39 PM

agreed.. i'm in the same situation on report 10

4/20/2006 10:09:31 PM

already turned mine in on Monday, sorry guys

Let me warn you in advance, you'll laugh at the final exam review PACKET that we get this week in lab. Fucking absurd.

4/20/2006 10:54:39 PM

I'll be in the library first floor studying for the final if anyone wants to come study with me

4/23/2006 10:35:53 PM

You guys ready?

I am just gonna study the problem types listed in the review packet. The other semantics are too much, especially for a freakin' 1 hour class.

Good luck to all.

[Edited on April 24, 2006 at 7:29 PM. Reason : ]

4/24/2006 7:27:14 PM

Final was ridiculously long. I think I did well on it though.

4/25/2006 6:59:24 PM

what is the name of this type of epistasis????????

4/26/2006 4:45:01 PM

were those practice problems helpful for the final?

anyone have the answers for the review packet so i can study it?

4/26/2006 5:59:23 PM

Dr. Gardner,

I was wondering if you would be able to send me the solutions to the exam
review so that I could check over my work. It would be greatly
appreciated. I do not know if the door is locked to the room where the
answers are posted and did not want to venture out in the rain without
knowing so.

Thank you,
Me



Her Response:

I am not emailing that file. It is posted outside my office and outside
the lab. The door is probably locked at this time but should be open 8-5
daily



why can't they just be helpful?

4/26/2006 8:39:49 PM

so this lab that's due... what is the epistasis question

4/26/2006 9:19:41 PM

the lab final sucks a lot

4/27/2006 9:23:12 AM

single recessive

4/27/2006 5:48:31 PM

How'd you guys do on the final exam?

4/27/2006 8:54:06 PM

got done in less than 45 minutes if that means anything.

4/29/2006 3:39:26 PM

grades currently in retrieve past semester section of packtracs...I hope everybody make it throught relatively unscathed

B is just fine for me

and I'm amazed AFGASN got a B+, I had thought that she didn't use the +/- grading system (at least that's what I had got from previous students)

5/3/2006 8:31:58 PM

YAAAYYYAAYYYY...i somehow got an A

5/3/2006 10:49:14 PM

C+

5/4/2006 12:58:23 AM

as Rattler stated...i got a B+....now i wish I made an A-...


The thread will now die away....
