I was very surprised when I saw how few people got an A in this class Fall 15. I thought it was an interesting class, especially if you like science and medicine. The tests were not difficult. She literally gave a study guide of terms and people, and the test was just a selection of them and regurgitating whatever you put on the study guide. So, as long as your study guide is thorough, you're good to go; you can also go to her office and she will tell you how good your study guide answers are. I strongly recommend visiting her office hours to discuss the two papers (only 5-7 pages). She also allows you to submit a draft to her prior to turning in the real thing, and she will give you feedback. Overall, Meldrum was helpful and fair, although lectures could be a bit dry. Again, very surprised to see the poor grade distribution.
