-professor makes it very difficult to learn. -forgets a lot of stuff he promises for test. -unorganized with his materials / not prepared to facilitate learning. -expects you to be ready for any question from any slide, any page from any book and anything he mentions, which is way to much information to keep track of. Bad at making tests

Half of the things he talked about did not make sense to me. You have to be there in class or points will be taken off. I felt he just read off the slides and didn't really teach. THE ONLY GOOD PART WAS THE EXTRA CREDIT. if you have this class, sucks to suck

Its difficult to understand what he is saying he has a heavy accent. Copy power point slides before class because you wont understand anything hes saying. He reads off the slides and gives no time to write. Tough grader for presentation. Midterm is difficult. Avoid this class. Midterm 125 Presentation 125 Final 125 Attendance 25

Reads off the ppt slides. No study guides. Exams VERY hard. He just tells you to memorize the slides which are essentially impossible as there are roughly 300 slides to review every exam. Attendance is mandatory in the sense that they count toward points and EVERY point matters! STUDY STUDY STUDY and just maybe you'll pass

One of the hardest courses for me by far. He's a very strict professor and does not play around. Most of his points revolve on iclicker ( for attend.), extra credit, quizzes and homework. Since it require lab to make sure you try your best in the lab, I failed most of the tests for lec and still managed to pass (thank goodness). STUDY, STUDY!!!

Ahmed is extremely rude to students when they ask questions and cuts them off when they do. Is not specific enough and very unclear and vague when giving directions and grades hard despite not telling students what he wants

Professor Ahmed has made my first zoom/ online experience terrible. He was very disorganized, inaccessible outside of class, did not communicate with the class regarding important things (like exam duration or grading criteria), and made it very difficult to be successful in his class. He refused to provide us a study guide for the final exam.

Had to end up teaching myself because I couldnt stand his lectures. He is very sarcastic and makes you feel dumb when you ask a question. A lot of the times he doesnt even answer your question and will say did you check the syllabus? Yes I checked Ahmed, the ANSWER WASNT IN THERE. Also, god forbid you email him. So glad this semester is over!

he knows his stuff but he is a HORRIBLE PROFESSOR. He literally marks you wrong for every little thing possible. Mind you he does not give you enough time to take exams, he does not tell you what is going to be on the exams so you mine as well study EVERYTHING. I have had him for multiple classes and I always get my lowest grade with him.

Lectures are sentences pulled from the textbook. Barely follows his own slides. He likes to mention things he believes are important that are not on the slides and will test you on those topics. Makes the course harder than it has to be because "advanced" is in the title. Only curved the class when we reported him to the department chair.

He will out right tell you he's giving you outdated/incorrect information to prevent cheating. He reads off of slides. When you ask him a question he tells you to shut up or not even answer your question at all. Study the slides and pay attention to what he says is important that ISN'T on the slide

Professor was a little unorganized. He could be a little more understanding and it's a little hard to hear when he speaks. Try your best to take notes when he speaks and be prepared to ask questions. Attendance is mandatory so make sure to go.

Professor Badr can be kind. However, he holds a complete bias towards Connect by McGraw-Hill + Proctorio. If there are any issues by Proctorio or Connect, he will say it's an issue on your end- not on the software's end. Any issues with the WiFi connection, even if it is out of your control (e.g. power outage), will give an automatic ZERO on exam.

Horrible professor. Can't understand what he is saying and gives no opportunity for practice just exams and quizzes. He is so extra about Connect and will flag you for the stupidest things. He just reads off the slides. He takes WEEKS to grade exams so you don't know how you're doing until 1/2 through the semester. Save stress & take someone else.

I never wore my seatbelt while driving to school because i wanted to die before making it to his class.

If you have him, good luck...All i gotta say.

Don't attend lectures? You won't pass. He wants to make the class "fun" by adding clinical scenarios that will come up on the exam. It seems like they come up more on the exam than the actual stuff on the slides. He just reads off slides. 2 homework assignments, three midterms, 1 final. Grade is dependent on these exams. Good luck if you have him.

Extremely rude at times during office hours. He will flag you for just about anything on online exams, for simple things such as moving too much on the camera and being "unfocused." Situation got so bad he got reported to the dean for being unfair. Has a snarky and mean attitude if you get flagged and try to explain your situation.Terrible lecturer

run. run. run. run.

Attendance not mandatory, but if you don't show up you likely won't pass. Even if you do show up you still likely won't pass. He's rude and even once failed a pregnant woman and was proud of doing so. Save yourself time and sanity and take this class with someone else.

Absolute worst professor ever. Never take his class I had to drop last minute because I would show up to lecture and study 3 hours a day just to get a 60% on the exams . AVOID AT ALL COSTS SAVE YOURSELF PLEASE

Very difficult teacher. All tests and quizzes are online, but the grading is super harsh—points are taken off for even the smallest mistakes. Attendance isn't mandatory, but if you want a good grade, you need to go to class. DO NOT take this professor if you're planning to apply to the nursing program.

If you're pre-nursing and do not take this class with him by all means. TAKE IT WITH SOMEONE ELSE PLEASE I'M TRYING TO SAVE YOU FROM LOSING YOUR SPOT AT PACSON. HE WILL TEST YOU ON THE SMALLEST THINGS POSSIBLE. SAVE YOURSELF AND YOUR DREAMS!!!!!!!! WE HAVE 3 CLASS SESSIONS LEFT AND 3 MORE ORGAN SYSTEMS TO LEARN ABT BEFORE THE FINAL. HES TERRIBLE!!!

He doesn't care about his students. He accused me of cheating with 0 proof, gave me a 0, and threatened to report me. I stood up for myself and said it was Proctorio's fault, but he stayed stubborn. Days later, he reversed the zero and blamed it on something totally different. Others went through the same thing. He loves 2 overcomplicate the class

as a bio major with a 4.0 GPA, no class/prof has tested my emotional or mental endurance like this one. human physio should deepen our understanding of the body not leave us anxious defeated & doubting ourselves. His office hours are useless I asked a followup Q & he just said, “It's on the slides." For the sake of your sanity and GPA, avoid him.

Y'all know that one scene from Mean Girls where Regina George is writing in the burn book? Yeah, that's what I could say about this course and about the professor. And if you don't know the scene, look it up and have a laugh bc I haven't laughed since I started this course.

bro is making me crash out like justin bieber level. bros an actual opp. i'm glad to know he's not teaching this course next semester after looking at the course on GET.

He claims to want to help out the pre-nursing and PA students all the time, especially during the beginning of the lecture by saying "I'm on your side, guys," but then goes around telling students after taking his quiz, "That quiz was easy, right? Well, it won't happen again." He probably gets off by making students fail. Don't take him.

WHOEVER SAID KAWII CROCS IS NOT REAL. ERM ACKTAULLY IT WAS HORRIBLE.

If you don't have a religion before taking this class, pick any and start praying like there's no tomorrow :)

HE BLAMES EVERYTHING ON THE STUDENTS. CONNECTION ISSUES, YOUR FAULT. CAN'T LOG INTO QUIZZES AND TESTS, "TAKE SOME RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOURSELVES YOU'RE ADULTS." ASSUMES YOU'RE ALL NURSING STUDENTS, EXPECTS YOU TO KNOW MEDICAL SCHOOL LEVEL QUESTIONS. HAS AN ATTITUDE WORSE THEN A SPOILED 2 YEAR OLD CHILD.

Ahmed is the least empathetic and caring professor in the university. Do not take his class.

For all my pre-nursing majors do not take him. He has some old personal drama that he has to fix and he takes it out on his students. He expects that everyone will get the knowledge right away and he is not kind to other peoples problems. He will say you are guilty even when your innocent and will do anything he has to do in order for you to fail

I would never recommend this teacher for any of his classes. He disguises his personal under kindness but in actuality he makes every student life hell. The vast majority of people drop his class or fails. He believes that every student is cheating and when we raise these problems to the dean he gets very mad and berates students during lecture

In all of my four years at this school, I have never taken a class where a professor hates his students. He's basically if you mix an edgy teenager who thinks the world is out to get him and add a spoiled kid. I don't know why he teaches biology when he has a masters in another field and but he's here to stay because tenure. Glad I'm graduating

I took this class because I thought it would be interesting before I graduated, but I dropped this class because this was the worst class and professor I ever had. Why he became a teacher when he hates teaching and students, I will never know. But if you are reading this do everything in your power to get another teacher, don't need to thank me

I'm one of the few kids in the class who has an 'A' in this class. Badr hates seeing students succeed that why most of the students fail or drop the class. If you can take any other teacher I very much recommend it. He is a teacher on a power trip and never wants to take accountability for it and always pushes any problems on us

The professor always reads from the slides, and whenever he doesn't have an answer to something or can't explain anything, he says, "It's not my area". No clue why he is a physio professor if his only area is the heart. If you go to his office hours and talk about the test, he will question why you got it wrong and make you feel guilty.

To add on, I literally had to fact-check him after the lecture because he said something wrong. I feel like the one thing he is good at is Connect because he loves to brag and talk about it so much. Sometimes this class makes me want to just work at Mc Donalds, heck I would love to be just a snail grooving around.

Karma will get him, and so will the etsy witches. He should've stayed in the cardiac cath lab.

Just read the reviews, he's one of the worst teachers on rmp on csula. Just trust

Glad I'm not taking this class for credits, never meet a teacher who hates students like this guy does

For anyone who takes this class because its necessary for your major try to find any other teach or way to do it because its not worth it

PLEASE HIS RATING IS INFLATED AND NOT REPRESENTED OF HOW BAD HE IS. HE IS WORSE THAN THE RATING, ALL OF THE 5 STARS CAME FROM COVID AND HE'S TERRIBLE. LEAVE WHILE YOU CAN

please, just no, please

avoid him at all costs, if u want an A u have to dedicate every single hour of the day studying for this class

He is the gatekeeper of successes, beware

as a 4.0 gpa student, never have i experienced a professor who belittles and disrespects students as much as him. lecture isn't mandatory but if u want to pass u cant miss them. tests are lecture/discussion heavy and a lot of it isn't on the slides. if ur a pre-nursing major: if u can't avoid him, doing well in lab will help you stay at a B avg.

I taught everything to myself. I learned almost nothing from him. Emphasis on BAD in Badr. This course itself is gonna be at least a little bit hard, no matter who you take it with. Although, Badr will make sure you're miserable throughout the process.

Passed his class but it was absolutely hell. It felt like I was fighting for my grade everyday and each test made me feel like I knew nothing. Your grade is decided by few tests and assignments. He takes a while to grade exams. You won't know how you're doing until like week 6 or 7. He can be rude to you in office hours and during lecture.

DO NOT TAKE. horrible professor, he blames everything on the students, if you have wifi issues, connect issues, or even get kicked out on an exam/quiz its your fault. he will report you to the dean for academic dishonesty for the simplest thing such as zooming in on screen. be prepared to teach yourself.

don't take badr please don't take his class I beg u for ur own sake unless u wanna fail miserably

This teacher nitpicks on the most minor issues especially since I got flagged twice on his end for both the first quiz and the second exam, which made me lose my sanity and faith in his lectures, especially his long notes. This applies especially when he had a schedule on the syllabus that he expected us to follow, yet he didn't follow it himself.

worst professor ever

The lecture on Physiology is very tough. No matter how much you study, it can feel overwhelming because of how detailed and strict the grading is. The professor sets high expectations, and there isn't much flexibility, so you have to stay consistent from the start. Make sure to keep your lab grades at a B or better if you are in nursing to stay in.

If you are not a part of a religion, you better pick one and pray if you take this class.
