Professor Baballari is a great teacher in my opinion! She explains things well and ties stuff back to other concepts. However, ENST200 is pretty hard and definitely relies on knowledge of chemistry and plant science. She goes a little fast in her slides, but is open to questions and has ample office hours (that people don't go to). The exams are definitely on the harder side and based on lecture slides so you have to go to lecture to know some of the niche things. Also, participation/attendance is graded. The lab kinda sucks to be honest but is mostly graded on completion.

Eni is a great professor! ENST200 is definitely a tricky course, but she provides everything you need to succeed, you just have to be willing to put in the work! Super reasonable workload and the labs are usually pretty enjoyable.

Eni is a kind soul who I have met with in office hours, after lecture, and during lab with questions and she has always shown that she wants her students to succeed. Yes, she is not the best lecturer in the department, but she genuinely cares and will do as much as she can to help you. ENST200 is sort of a weed out course so yes I got 70% on two of the midterms but I met with her after each and tried to make my studying mimic the prior exams, and because Eni was very generous with extra credit and the course curve I got an A-. So yes, I would recommend taking a class with Eni.

Professor Baballari teaches you everything you need to know to succeed. Students probably don't understand content very well since ENST 200 is so intense and they don't read the textbook. The textbook really helps you breeze by. She is extremely nice and you can always ask to review lectures, exams, or quizzes. Plenty of opportunities to succeed in her class.

The Professor is very kind and cares a lot about the topic. When compared to lab courses in bio and chem I would say this is easier than those. I personally found the subject of soils to be really interesting so I enjoyed it. There are a lot of study materials provided. You really need to read the book and attend lectures to do well in the class.

Dr. Baballari is a very nice person, but her class is highly disorganized and her exam prep is very unhelpful. The study guide is a bunch of random terms (many of which were not discussed in lecture or in the slides) and no idea of what exactly you should know about the topics. I've genuinely never felt less prepared for an exam in my life.

First off, enst200 is a really hard course and no one really tells you that. There is a lot of complex concepts that you need to learn. If you are taking other AGNR classes, try your best to learn and retain the basic information because you'll definitely need it for upper-level courses. Also, the lab portion of this class is no joke! As for this professor, she is really kind and understanding. The lectures are very boring, but personally, I think it's just the subject. The textbook is somewhat helpful. I recommend going to her office hours, especially if you have questions about your exam grades. btw I took this spring 2020, completely online during COVID.

This professor is nice to her students, but it doesn't really help with her class structure / teaching style. When asked a question, she usually doesn't give a great answer. Her lectures go really fast and they're also pretty boring. The worst part is her exams -- no one ever knows how to prepare because she says to skim the textbook, but then there will be really crazy questions on the exam that you wouldn't know just from lecture. Then there's even questions you wouldn't know at all from this class' content. She will also put questions from other units into the exam you're taking even though it is not cumulative, or relevant to the current unit. She has a test bank that she takes from so some students can get really hard questions that involve a lot of math and so take more time, but others will get simpler ones. The fact that everything is multiple choice makes it really hard because her opinion on the "best" answer choice can be a bit confusing. Overall, it's a very unbalanced class and has been unnecessarily difficult.
