Honestly the best Molecules and Cells professor. But expect a B going in. She curves to B - average. Also, be prepared for "SELECT ALL THAT APPLY" questions. Really attentive and caring professor. Attendance not required. Homeworks and in-class activities "help" prepare you for midterms.

Mols and Cells is super hard no matter who you take it with, but Dunn is really caring and tries to engage the class. If she gives advice on how to do better, TAKE IT. The exams are pretty hard but if you go to office hours and study consistently instead of cramming, it is manageable.
