Her English is really bad. Shes really good, knows her material but she has such a soft voice so i advice you to sit in the front. She gives a powerpoint presentation and draws on the board so thats always helpful. For her quizes she mainly asks about functions instead of names!!
She is a good teacher shehelps alot and she really cares if u have good grades she is always for you if u need help. u get a lit confuse for her english but she is an awsome teaher who doesnt get an A is because ur not studying i had anatomy1 andknow anatomy 2 and sheis the best lab teacher
She is excellent. She cares that you know the material, if you you did not understand she will go out of her way to explain it to you. Other proffesors only mission in life is to fail you she is out help you learn. She is the best MDC has ever had as faculty.
She is a great prof but it's very hard to understand her. And if you don't know a word of spanish you'll be in trouble b/c she tries real hard but she has a very heavy hispanic accent. I liked her though and if she was teach BSC2086 i would take her again!
SHE IS ONE OF THE BEST BIOLOGY PROFESSORS ON CAMPUS.IF YOU WANT TO LEARN, THIS IS THE WAY TO GO!
this professor is the best if you study what she gives you ....you will be able to pass
She is the best teacher, very few like her ! she really cares about students progress & she goes out of her way to help you understand the material. She is GREAT !
SHE WAS A REALLY GOOD TEACHER, VERY HELPFULL AND UNDERSTANDING. SHE IS AT THE ANATOMY LAB ALL THE TIME READY TO HELP YOU. IF YOU WANT AN A, TAKE HER AS A PROFESSOR FOR ANATOMY LAB, SHE WAS THE GREATES LAB TEACHER I HAVE HAD IN MDC.
Shes a good teacher..........her practicums arent that easy...........u gotta study really hard and go to the labs
Very nice lady. She is very helpful and kind. I would take her again. She will give any help you need.
She's awesome, always trying to make it easier for the student. tells you exactly whats on the quizzes and practicums.
SHE HAS A HEAVY ACCENT BUT SHE'S ALSO VERY HELPFUL AND CARES ABOUT YOUR PROGRESS. IF YOU STUDY WHAT SHE TELLS YOU, YOU'RE GUARANTEED TO PASS. GREAT TEACHER!
let me just start off with the fact that I suck at anatomy but for some reason she made this class seem easy because she goes through everything that is going to be on the quizes and practicals.
She is very helpful, and always at the lab. if she sees you are interested and and in need of help, she will go the extra mile to assist you
SHE IS VERY HELPFUL!! EVERYTHING SHE COVERS IN CLASS IS RIGHT THERE ON THE TEST. I PASSED WITH AN A. THAT CLASS COULDN'T BE EASIER AND YOU ACTUALLY LEARN. VERY GOOD AND HELPFUL TEACHER
Very good teacher!! She actually takes time to go over everything and doesn't go on until you understand the material. Her tests are easy (straight from the material in the book) and she always tells you exactly what's going to be on the tests. As long as you actually pay attention in class, you will pass with no problems!
Excellent instructor. cares about students, takes time to explain and most of all tutors in the lab. Great Professor!
She is a sweetheart... if u r not do ing good she will help ypu by telling you what you need.. and even give you some points por perfect attendance... great teacher!!! very clear!!!! also very helpful
She helps you learn the material. She is always willing to help you understand, uses all the models available in the lab, and also gives you time at the end of the class to ask questions and go over the models.
Dr. Carmona is very helpful, clear and takes the time to help you. She is also a tutor at the lab. I went to the lab 3 times a week and learned a lot from her. SHE IS A GREAT TEACHER!!!!!To learn and memorize the student has to do their part.
Professor Carmona explains everything very well. She is very helpful and wants everyone to do excellent in her class. SHE IS THE GREATEST TEACHER EVER!!!! I GIVE HER AN A+ DID I MENTION SHE'S HOTT!
Take this class with her. You will pass with an A. She explains everything really well and she gives you bonus quizzes all the time. I got an A in her class which I thought was not possible!! Best Lab I have ever had at teacher at Dade.
She is really helpful and clear in her explanations.Personally she is really sweet and makes her class very interesting.She tryes everyone to have a good grade.Teachers like her are the ones we all need.
She is very good teacher. she explain and tell u what is going to be on the quiz exactly. Her accent is a little difficult to understand but she's an awesome teacher. Ask all questions during class. Its kinda hard to locate her. Alot of memorizing so its up to u to pass.
Mrs. Carmona is definitely a GREAT teacher!!! Her quizzes and practicums are fair and she gives extra credit questions to help bring up your class grade. She's very helpful, and will cover material over if any1 in class is in doubt. Very patient and understanding... overall GREAT TEACHER!! Take her for Lab.
she teaches the lab class/ she is a good teacher and very helpfull. She is also very hot. Her practicums are fair, nothing off the chart If she didnt teach it, she would not put it on the test. Fair teacher. Highly recommended it.
She is one of the best lab professors you can get! She's great at teaching, if you don't get it she will explain again. Don't get me wrong, you really need to study, but as long as you're willing to do that, you should be just fine. Too bad she isn't teaching A&P II lab this semester, otherwise I would take her again!!!
Excellent teacher. Explanations clear and to the point. I highly recommend her for A & P Lab. I would take a class with her again without hesitation.
SHE IS THE BEST OF THE BEST. SHE KNOWS WHAT SHE'S TALKING ABOUT AND CARES THAT THE STUDENTS LEARNS AS WELL. SHE GIVES EXTRA CREDIT ON PRACTICUMS AND EXTRA CREDIT QUIZZES. EVENTHOUGH SHE HAS A HISPANIC ACCENT YOU CAN UNDERSTAND HER BECAUSE SHE KNOWS HER MATERIAL. TAKE HER IF YOU TO LEARN HAVE FUN AND PASS THE CLASS
She doesn't care about students. She runs over the material and expects you know everything at the moment. The quizzes are very hard, you need to learn like a 100 terms and then she asks for the 10 worst ones, and you have to write them(no multiple choice). Also, for the practicum you have to write 60 questions. That's abusive.
She is great, you have to study but "is annatomy, you need to know the material" she give some extra credit and she eve lets you come to one of her other classes so you will not miss a quiz, she is very specific with the material that will be an the test and very nice person over all. I will take her again if she will teach BSC2086.
IMPOSSIBLE!! Save your money and take it with someone else. This lab is harder than the class. You work like 10 times more for 1 credit! No multiple choice, asks the hardest questions, just not worth it if you have a life outside this class.
Great teacher. Very strong accent but you get used to it. Wants you to understand. Quiz each week, but usually the easiest information she provided. Gives random extra points. 90% recommended.
Prof. Carmona is really awesome!! I enjoyed her class!If you asked her pertaining from the subject, she will help you..In fact, we still keep in touch..
SHE IS THE BEST SHE HELPS YOU A LOT AND HER TESTS ARE EASY. YOU HAVE TO STUDY BUT THATS IN EVERYTHING YOU ARE NOT BORN KNOWING IT ALL. TAKE HER I REALLY RECOMMENDED.
(Lab). Loved Professor Carmona..i wanted to take her for BSC2086 lecture and lab, but she appears with a/other name on MDC system and was too late when i found out...Learned A LOT...very helpful and clear class... It was an awesome class...i really really really recommend her...I feel ready for BSC2086, learned more at her lab than in the lecture G
I had her for bsc 2085L. She is the best lab professor. I learned a lot and I recommend her.
Talk about destroy the english language.When you say your going to give a study guide you dont put 500 questions on it & give you 4 days to study it!!Her test are super hard I understand you have to study but you could atleast compress the material & make it easier for the student. She thinks people are only taking ONE class.
I took her for both the lab and the class! i have to say she was better in the lab than in class, overall she was good, her accent is a little difficult but after the first week you begin to understand her! make sure your willing to study because her study guides are over 200 questions, but shes nice.. and gives extra credit!!
took her for both BSC2085 and BSC2085L (lab) great teacher, gives reviews that are a bit long but if you study it youll ace her exams. helpful at all times.
This rating is for the LAB. I took both labs with her and she was more difficult for 2086L. Quizzes and practicums are still similar, but she gave us less extra credit then in 2085L. Best advice is study from the email powerpoints she sends, quizzes are based on those. Practicums are based on the models in class. There are 10 quizzes, 3 practicums.
Do Not, I REPEAT DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS! She expects you to learn too much material for 1 exam. Also her accent is so thick that she shouldn't be aloud to teach. No one can understand her. Also, she has no patience. When I ask her to repeat something specific she looks at me with an attitude. She has to be the worst professor I've ever had.
shes an awesome professor, at first she might seem a little mean or hard but she just wants you to learn the material. she teaches and explains very good and motivates you to do good. shes also with time very nice and helpful, and wants to see you do good. this has to be the class where i worked the hardest in, and it payed off. i love this class
shes the best you do need to study for the class and you do have to go to the anatomy lab i mean if you want to pass and you do get a quiz every class but if i did it you can i average 104% at the end of the class so it can be done good luck and God Bless!!!
Awsome teacher! she goes over everything on the quizzes you need to know, there is alot of material for some quizzes though! If you study her slides, easy A!
She's the best professor ever. I took her for BSC2085l, and I got an A. every class a 10 q quiz, easy things. Extra credits in every quiz and practicum. She is very nice and knowlegable. I really recommend her. He class is awsome!!!
Really fast pace. Very interesting. Very nice teacher and great class :-)
Very good professor. Go to class, study power point for quizzes and go to practice Lab for practicum.
Wonderful teacher! You will enjoy her class. She grades fairly and really tries to help students. Covers all of the material needed for the exams. You will have to study for this class, and learn the material. She is one of the best teachers I have ever had. Quizzes every class and 3 practicums.
Great professor and an amazing class, I enjoyed it a lot. You have to study but it is not a new thing any of these classes needs efforts. She knows a lot and she explains million of times....super nice, wonderful lab.
Quizzes are basically what she goes over in Powerpoints. Gives extra credit questions on quizzes & practi****which comes in handy.Use the atlas for more clarity and utilize the lab. Try not to miss a class but if necessary speak to her to make arrangements for a make-up. She is fair and understanding and most likely will accomodate you.Good teacher
This teacher was by far the worst teacher i have ever taken a course with in MDC. she goes way to fast and has a very strong cuban accent. two things that don't mix. she tells you to study one things but then test you on something way different. on the bright side shes nice.
Took her for the Lab. She is super nice, has an accent, but you can understand her. She is flexible and understands there is alot of info. to memorize. She is fair and will help you if you don't understand something. You have to study and memorize alot of names. She is great in explaining things. I highly recommend her.
I Personally do not recommend...She is very nice but if you work full time like me and have kids this class is going to take a lot of that time away....but she is very nice though...
She is a good teacher only if you have no life and no kids. She wants you to know structures and functions. She doesn't give you extra credit and she gives you the same structure in 10 different angles and wants you to know all the sides. If you want to study extra hard then take her!!!
She's a great prof. She makes everything crystal clear and repeats everything until she sees that everyone understood. None of her tests are multiple choice but they aren't hard and if you study you will actually learn. She has an accent but it's nothing you wouldn't be able to deal with. I definitely recommend her!
I TOOK HER FOR LAB SHE IS GREAT!LOVEEE GOING TO HER CLASS EVERYTHING SHE TEACHES IS ON THE TEST SHE HELPS YOU UNDERSTAND AND I REALLY LEARNED ALOT RECOMMEND HER 100%!!
she was a great professor in letting us understand the material. However, her tests are totally worded very tricky and are hard. so beware of that
Professor is one the best in Miami Dade College. I recommend her to any who are pursuing a degree in the Medical Field. You will learn alot in her class and will be ready for BSC2086(Anatomy 2). Take her! It's worth it.
She's great, you have to study for sure though. I had her for lab passed her class with a B, simply because i slacked at the beginning, if you study u'll end up with an A. Her practicums are intense but if you've studied for her quizzes then you'll do just fine
I am in her lecture and very disappointed. Aside from her heavy accent she races through the material and does not like to answer questions during class. The class time is 1:20 min but she ends class before the hour thus sacrificing valuable teaching time. Her TEACHING skills leave much to be desired. I do not recommend her at all for lecture.
Professor Carmona does not have great teaching skills. Her classes are very short. Waste too much time before she acctually starts the class. Read from powerpoint and that is it. She does not answer any questions. Very disapointing. You have to study a lot on the side. Try Dr.Goodman on youtube. He is great.
i had her for lab she's alright mostly its teaching yourself since she just rushes through the material and doesn't answer our questions as much. study alot from the manual and a quiz every class. its easy if you study what your suppose to
she doesn't have the best teaching skills and doesn't like to answer questions. her power point slides are 200+ and she expects you to study on your own because you're in college. it's your responsibility to read the textbook. basically i go to class for the attendance. I honestly don't recommend her.
DO NOT WANT. You've been warned. I'm an PREMED honors student ok, so this interested me alot. It is an unnecessarily difficult course. Just don't. Your 3rd week of class you'll remember reading this and wish you'd listenened. Exponentially difficult material. Entirely too much memorization, none functional. Tests are on obscure hidden facts. AVOID
Its very sad that this professor does not care if you learn or not. If she is asked a question she cannot explain or give you the time of day. Do not take this so called professor.
She does go over the powerpoints really quick but she is a good teacher! if you show u are interested in the class she will help you out! you do NEED TO STUDY you have to memorize the lab manuel but it isn't that hard. just study and you will do fine in her class! he is a good teacher!
horrible! do not take unless uhave lots of time in hand. has bad accent.
Her accent makes the class interesting and she goes over exactly what you need to know for the test and skips the rest then home you go! She's very compassionate when it comes to making up stuff or going to her when you have a bad grade, show interest and she'll love you!
Prof. Carmona is nice and she knows what she's talking about when teaching. I like the way whe taught the class when I was taking anatomy 1. She is definately a very good teacher. The thing is that I think that people don't get it, they don't realize that we're in college.....she's amazing. I'll take her again if I had to do it.
she dont have indepth knowledge about the course.when you ask any qs she try to avoid it.her lecture does not cover the test.please dont take her
This is an awesome teacher. Not many like her. Very nice and helpfull, anyone who cares can pass with a good grade. Will take classes with her again! A++++
She is the BESTTTTT TEACHER EVER, Definitely must take her!!! You have to study hard and if you are interested in class you will pass. she is super nice and knows what she is doing. THE BEST OF THE BEST!!! TAKE HER!!!!!!!!!!
This teacher is incredible. I have never taken an anatomy class and because of her repetidness style of teaching I got. The book is a must open before and after class. She made it fun. I recommend recording the class if you can, take the online quizes for sure. Plus she is amazingly HOT.
Mrs Carmona is a very nice teacher with a heart of gold. She would help you when you show interest. She is a little bit repetitive. And get upset when people talks during lecture. Exams are hard. So read the book before and after or FAIL. Yet the online test worth 20%,plus class credit. So easy A or B.
this teacher is awesome. she really knows here stuff. its all repeated a lot but helps you memorize all the information. test are easy as long as you study. take her you wont regret it
BSC2085 + BSC2085L: This teacher is extremely kind and helpful. What she goes over in class is exactly what will be on the exam. Keep in mind, if you plan to take upper level sciences classes taking her will not help.Other teachers are harder and more advanced so you will have to do extra work. But she is great for what she teaches! Loved her.
This professor is very unprofessional. She missed several classes this semester including the last lecture and sent some lame substitute who could barely speak english. She postponed a test on the day it was supposed to be taken.I was up late studying for nothing. I could have devoted that time to studying more for the other test I had that day.
She is not as good as her previous reviews say. She missed 4 classes this semester so you miss out on those lectures. Also her study guides are not helpful at all. You don't know what to expect in her exams you have to know everything in the chapters in order to get an A. I got my A, but it was very hard.
Not the best professor, study guides don't match up with test questions (not focused on test questions alone), she missed several lectures and seemed to be a little grouchy most of the time. Not all that clear. Tests were tricky. No midterm and the final was optional. I am an A student and got a B from this class. Not the worst but not the best.
She does not do test review. Not very sympathetic.
She is not a very good professor. I didnt really learn much in her class and her test are ALL written test, NO multiple chioce. I do not recommend her for lab
She is really hard, text do not match w/ study guide.She is nice, but in the lab is so difficult to get A in the quizzes because if you fail one question you get B.
Online class,unlimited attempts for practice test,3 attempts for quizzes. You will and can get 100's in these. Now you will fail the midterm and final,guaranteed. (the whole class failed both test),and she does not care. No reviews,there is no rhyme or reason to these test.I do not know how she is in person,but not recommended for online.
Agree with comment below. Also had her for online. You can get A's on the quizzes and Course Compass tests but be prepared for the Midterm and Final because EVERYONE in the class failed. Gives no extra credit other than if you complete all the activities in course compass which in my opinion is pretty useless.
You must take a lot of notes since it is A&P!! But everything she says and talks about and repeats is on the tests!!! Just study your notes. Classwork sometimes could take home are easy A's. And online quiz's answers are in the book. Too easy. Very nice teacher. Would def. take her again!!! And attendance IS mandatory!!! >.<
Took her for A&P lecture & lab. Tests have what she teaches in class. Attendance is necessary (approximately 20% of grade) and especially since there are graded-in-class assignments that is part of overall grade. Lab has weekly quizzes, so read labs ahead of time. Online access is needed, and VERY HELPFUL for both lecture and lab.
Took her for the lecture class for anatomy and i did not like her class at all. This class was very boring and she could have been better at teaching the material. Attendance is mandatory you will be lost. She gives you study guides but after doing them i stil did not do well on the tests. If you can take another teacher and get a better grade.
I currently have this professor and yeah she can get a little boring but she covers what's going to be on the test, you just have to do your part and go over what she lectured about..gives online coursecompass which i find very helpful. I am very satisfied with her and y grade in the class so far.
I had her online. Great teacher. Very helpful. Gives study guides for the midterm and final. We had to do one chapter a week with its corresponding work on masteringaandp and a quiz (which you get two chances at.) Taking her again next semester for Anatomy 2
Took her class online the tests were ok, 2 attempts to pass. However, I garuntee you will fail the midterm and final (the entire class did). No study guides or curves!
Prof. Carmona is a very nice professor. She does go over and over some thing but its for you to know it and because it will be on the test. Do her study guides they do help. As well read the book, and plus her powerpoints are very helpful. I recommend this professor.
AWESOME PROFESSOR!!!! I RECOMMEND HER FOR BSC2085, BECAUSE THAT WAS THE CLASS I TOOK WITH HER.SHE IS THE BEST PROFESSOR I TOOK IN KENDALL CAMPUS.
This teacher is the bomb.com. Test are easy if you study the homework questions. And her power points as well. Don't need the book that much. Trust me STUDY THE HOMEWORK questions from the mastering website. her labs are easy tOo. Shell tell you what you need to know so memorize and you'll Ace her classes.
I had her for anatomy 1 for lab and she was a really good teacher, you really have to work for your A though.
As you should know, it is imperative to study hard in this class. However, she cares about you learning and understanding the material. If you study, you not only will have a good grade, but will know a lot about Anatomy for sure
This Professor is awesome! She works well with students and is very helpful. I took her last semester for BSC2085 and this semester for BSC2086 (online). Passed both times. If you miss something she will help you get back on track. She really wants you to learn! I recommend this teacher to anyone taking anatomy.
Prof Carmona is so far the best Anatomy teacher in all MDC. Before taking her, I tried two times, one in Wolfson and other in Interamerican, I got F, No blaming the teacher but this class needs encouragement , I take her and not only got A but I really enjoyed the class, learned a lot, she makes it interesting, that is it!!!!!!!
Her class was okay... I failed the midterm, got a C on the final and aced all of the quizzes, completed the assignments and extra credit and came out with a B. The proctored exams are a killer but the teacher was okay.
Dr. Carmona is the best Anatomy professor in all MDC. She makes the class very interesting and not boring at all. She helps and give extra credit opportunities. Anatomy is hard but she explains it so good that makes it look easy.
has a bit of a spanish accent, all of her powerpoints are on angel including study guide, final is optional(only if needed)
excellent professor if you dont do well with her is because you dont pay attention and you no study at all
A great professor, her class is made up of five tests and a series of online quizzes and assignments. The book is useless as she provides study guides for each chapter. If you complete and study the reviews you will ace the course! The lectures were interesting sometimes and boring at other times. I'd recommend her.
Horrible professor. She just reads off her powerpoints. Her reviews are not helpful at all! about 300 questions on the review per chapter and none relate to the test.her test are HARD and She doesnt help her students succeed,Greatly regret taking her.
Did not like her class at all. Bad Professor. Very Unefficient and unhelpful.
Dr. Carmona is a professional & dedicated teacher. You must study to get an "A" in her class. If you aren't interested in learning, then this class is not for you. She is funny but expects the same respects she gives her students. SHE IS AN EXCELLENT TEACHER!!!
I DO NOT RECCOMMEND!!!!! you can barley understand a word she says because she has a very heavy accent and she races through all the material like you are a sponge. no classwork so your grade rides on the 4 tests that she gives. shes nice but unless your glued to your anatomy book at home you will fail
12 quizzes, in which she only counts 6. 3 practicums. She goes way too fast in every powerpoint, all she does is read it and talks about things that aren't related to the current chapter. So it's confusing. She is nice though. Also, all quizzes/practicums are fill in the blank. Print out the powerpoints before going to class so you can take notes.
She is nice, but she teaches VERY fast. shes super hard to keep up with. 12 quizzes, she counts the 6 with the highest grade. 3 practicums (half powerpoint, half models) you have to REALLY STUDY to pass this class but it is passable. she has a thick accent. take her if your good at studying and retaining info. if your not, I wouldnt recommend.
Overall she is an OKAY professor. It's almost impossible to get an A in her class. There's 3 practicum's and I got an A in the first two and a high B in the last one and I still ended up one point away from an A which she didn't give me. She goes really fast and isn't really helpful. Quiz every class, drops the 6 quizes you did the worst in.
I took this class and we met once a week because it was a blended class! I don't understand the previous comments b/c she speaks CLEARLY, and she is helpful and kind. Everything on the powerpoint and quizzes are on the tests. Only reason you don't pass is if you don't put an effort or you don't care. I ended with an A+ on every test/quiz
Took her blended course. Her exams are long, multiple choice. some questions come from the angel quizzes. if you will take her she is a great person. attendance is mandatory. study for her exam they are long and can be tricky. memorize the quizzes and you should be fine. I would take her again. study! study!
This class was extremely easy. My laziness was the only reason I got a B. However the lectures are extremely boring. I didn't mind her heavy accent, but I did mind the fact that she talks to the students as if we are five years old and unnecessarily dumbs things down to the point that its annoying. The book teaches everything you need to know.
I've heard that anatomy is one of the toughest courses to take. But this woman made me actually interested in some subjects that we talked about. My classes was blended (highly recommend) so quizzes were easy, 2 tests virtually and 2 in class, and she assigns extra credit. And she HATES when phones go off.
I got A but you have to study a lot period. The book will be your friend so go and eat it all. Good professor quick presentations if you class is blend, she had no time to finish up the power points in blended classes. Yes it is blended, that means more time for you to study.
I took her class online. Quizzes and assignments are easy but midterm and final exams are 150 questions and very hard to study for since She provides a study guide that is 16 pages long and expects you to complete it and study it instead of just telling you to study the 10 quizzes and 300+ questions you already answered. DO NOT TAKE.
In person I enjoyed her class, but as an online professor, there was much to be desired. Power points are long and do not provide any indication on what to expect on the test. Models on the test are outdated and DO NOT MATCH THE BOOK OR POWERPOINTS. Study guide is 20+ Pages, Final and midterm 30% of your grade, 12 quizzes, 2 discussions, Extra Cred
She is nice and funny. Gives extra credit for the test and you must study! You Work for your grade
MRS. CARMONA is the best professor you will ever have. she understands you and helps you a lot. she makes the class interesting and she is very repetitive to make sure that you understand everything. Study the questions in the quizzes because most of them are gonna be in your tests. Don't be lazy, if study and you will be ok. TAKE HER!!!
BEST PROFESSOR EVER. YOU WILL LAUGH A LOT, SHE HAS A HEAVY ACCENT BUT IT IS NOT DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND HER. IM GOING TO TAKE HER AGAIN FOR FALL. SHE GIVES A LOT OF EXTRA CREDIT THAT WILL HELP YOU BOOST YOUR GRADE, STUDY AND YOU WILL GET A'S. ALSO, YOU WILL LEARN A LOT AND SHE WILL MAKE YOU LOVE THE SUBJECT.
She's an amazing professor! She has an accent but that doesn't affect her lectures at all because she's very passionate about the subject she teaches and makes sure you learn if you put your part. Complete the online assignments, review the quiz questions, study hard for the tests and you will pass.

I took her class expecting it to be great, but honestly I wish I had taken another professor. Don't get me wrong, she's very nice but her teaching style isn't for me. She reads off the PowerPoint and doesn't even explain anything, and when she runs out of time she zooms passed it just saying, "you need to know this this and this and this."good luck
Is never able to fit her lectures into the whole class period, so most of the class is self-taught. Only saving grace are the easy online assignments and her study-guides for the tests. But even then, plenty of questions pop up that aren't from the guides. Only take as a last resort, because there's definitely worse professors out there.
I took this class online. She is not very understanding of any circumstances you may have for tests and is disorganized for dates in assignments. The extra credit is what saved my grade. Anatomy should be taken on-campus with a good professor not online so concepts can be understood better and u won't have to be referred to a link when u have issue
Prof. Carmona is very passionate about Anatomy and Physiology, she gets excited & is far from boring, we need more professors like her. Her tests are HARD, read, do the Blackboard Assignments and study guides. They're do-able as long as you study. Other reviews might say shes tough but shes getting us ready for Anatomy 2, you'll thank her later!!
She's a great teacher but it is difficult to remember all three chapters per test. There's only four tests, each based off of three chapters. The study guides aren't that helpful. I wish it was a test per chapter. It would be much easier to not only remember the material but people would pass with higher grades. Goodluck to whomever takes her!
Took an online class. Found her instructions confusing, she sends a million emails with weird font and spelling/grammar mistakes, this was made worse by Blackboard's user-unfriendly platform. She only offers two tests, I felt like it was a little tough for such a heavy course, but if you read and study hard you will get an A.
Horrible. She does not care about her students, and if you're late she marks you absent even if its by 5 minutes.
This professor is a good professor, she is super sweet and nice. Yes, she does have a heavy accent but its not hard to understand. She knows her stuff and she has good power point slides to help you along the way. Her study guides have similar questions to the tests. And her blended class is heavily based on blackboard. Easy class would take again
350 characters isn't enough to describe how annoying this woman is. The first two tests are online, the second two in person. Lectures are tedious and she teaches like a hs teacher. She'll stop teaching if you even whisper to someone. Only allows 2 absences. Take it with someone who doesn't put you to sleep and isn't as uptight, you'll thank me!!
All assignments are on blackboard including the quizzes and two of the tests. The other two are in class and are extremely hard. Final is optional to bring up the lowest test grade
Professor carmona sucks. Everything is on online except of course exams. Only 1 out of 4 exams are online. Quizzes are online. Heavy accent so its impossible to understand her. In class all shegoes through a power point extremely fast. Her exams are NOTHING like the quizes or study guides. She also has an attitude problem.
DO NOT TAKE. I honestly learned more in my lab than my lecture. She doesn't even teach just tells you to review everything and speeds through the power points because of limited time. I haven't learned anything from her and offers limited extra credit. Take advantage of that one test online and ace it because it'll probably be the only test you ace
Great Professor that repeats everything at least once and answers questions . Gives all the material for the tests on PP and even gives study guides for each chapter . Also gives extra credit homework which helped get me an A in the class. What more could you ask for?
Her class was a challenge but she's really helpful outside of class as well as in class, you just have to work for it. The grades in class are earned which is a really great feeling, she goes faster than lecture. There's a quiz every Friday the class meets, I encourage you visit her office hours!
There are not enough words to describe how bad this teacher is. Her lectures are really heavy. She skins all the PowerPoints. She talks really fast & has a heavy accent, gets tangeled within her own words. 2 exams online and 2 in person. Test in person are nothing like the study guides, quizzes online are the only easy thing. Study hard to pass.
I took this professor online 2085 class and lab. It was terrible. Your lectures are different from the quiz and exams. You couldnt find the answers either the lecture nor the book. The final was very difficult . And also is very desorganizada. You have to keep checking the calendar because sometimes she doesnt give access to quiz .
The exam is taken from wherever. You can study a lot , but the quiz and exam are different from the lecture . Also she is very desorganized.
Im taking her for the lecture & the Lab. The class itself its really hard. So if students dont care and think they will pass cramming the night before the test, oh boy they r wrong, with all due respect. If you wanna get an A, you'll have to spend at least 4 hours a week studying for the quizzes and exams. LOts of homework.
I took the lecture and the lab in 8 weeks, was very tough !! but the only thing u have to do is study !! don't wait until the night before to the test to study, prof Carmona, for me, was amazing, she gives a lot of extra credits, more than many people deserve, she repeats, again and again, the most important, I would take h
Carmona is an average teacher who speaks "Spanglish". Her powerpoints/lectures do NOT help with exams so READ the book. Also, when she says she gives "3 extra credit points" at the semester's end, do not count on them because it's actually 00.03% to overall grade. Prepare for the last exam to be the hardest/different from the previous exams!
I would take her again! Prof. Carmona is the best! Make you study but her class is inspiring
Nice professor extremely hard class. Reads of power point the whole class yet it is interesting. Power points have around 100 slides. STUDY STUDY STUDY OR FAIL!
I took this class online, it is not hard but since it is summer it makes it harder. The calendar in my opinion is very messy you could barely understand it. The lab exercises are easy and short which is good. The quiz are fair and not hard but you still have to read.
This woman's course that was worth ONE CREDIT had me working harder than BOTH of my 3 credit courses combined. She assigns WAY too much homework and her quizzes require intense memorization (they are all fill-in-the-blank and we all know that anatomy has obscure, difficult words). She allows no make ups for any of the three tests! Horrible!
There's 1 Clinical Discussion. Registration is Mandatory for Pearson Mastering, provides your eBook. Each module has 1 or 2 assignments in Pearson My Lab Mastering. Assignments A are mandatory & B are for extra credit. Each module in Black Board will have a quiz with 2 attempts. 4 Exams; 2 online and 2 proctored. Not good at responding to emails.
I took this class online. Very hard to get in touch with this teacher, takes forever to answer an email, and WILL NOT give you a chance to make up any work. Her tests are very hard even if you do study.
I passed in spite of her. Quizzes are online and also count as attendance for the online portion of it. Do everything on Pearson, it helped me. Its also where you learn the most. Classes are boring, really boring. PowerPoint heavy.
Great Professor!!! Show up to class and studying, and you are good to go 4 STARS....
Professor Carmona is a GREAT professor! I took her for anatomy 1 (BSC 2085) and she's so passionate about the subject and makes sure to accommodate to her students. I had a few issues in my personal life and she accommodated to them to make sure I passed the class. Her lectures are on powerpoint and they are uploaded on blackboard so you can study.
Very intelligent and kind. Took her for anatomy I lab and lecture; she made the topics very clear and easy to understand. Don't miss class. Would take her again. Super super sweet. You do need purchase the online Pearson mastering for her class.
Horrible!! I study for her class like crazy through her studies guide and I didnt pass her test were nothing like the review,the quizzes or homework difficult to understand her lecture and she doesnt Gelo the students, i personal ask for help and she said she didnt had time. Wasted my money, super stressful experience
Very friendly and kind, and very knowledgable. I took her for anatomy lecture and lab. There is a lot of online homework but it's not too difficult and she gives you credit for late work. If you pay attention in class and go over her power points, you can get away with not reading the book (though you will still need the online access code).
LOVED HER. I took her online class and she is super responsive and caring. She gives clear instructions and truly sets you up for success. I enjoyed this class very much. We had a quiz every week, online assignments, 2 exams, midterm and final! Super easy if you apply yourself and try.
She is an amazing professor and caring person. Yes, you have to study like crazy because she wants you to really learn the subject, but you wont regret it. In lab, she gives a quiz every class and you also have online assignments plus 3 tests. Lecture was a little bit harder because my class was 8 weeks, however it was only 3 tests no quizzes.
SHE IS AMAZING!!! I took her for the lecture and I wish she was teaching 2086 because she's that good! She really helps you understand the material by explaining and drawing everything out. Her tests are a little hard and you need to study, but it is so worth it! Definitely recommend her if you want to learn the material.
I LOVED HER LAB CLASS! My favorite college class by far and I would love to take her class again with the same group of people too. She will give a lot, but I believe thanks to her way of teaching, I found it entertaining to learn all that she gave, even if it meant staying up late at night. If you really want to study anatomy, then she is the one.
Worst professor ever! I am taking this class for the summer but it was to be in person of course but with the whole covid it became online. She doesn't respond to her emails, she doesn't let you know in advance for the exam if you need a camera for the exam, since the 1st one didnt require. EXAMS ARE NOTHING LIKE STUDY GUIDES!!! Horrible accent btw
She is a nice teacher unfortunately i had her online and never responds back to emails. Test online are on a lock down browser. Studying guides arent like the test. Unless you study HARD goodluck on the exams. Attendance and hw is apart of your grade but the exams weigh alot. She isnt bad but i wouldnt take her again.
She is amazing for those who are visual learners. She literally points out on her own body when teaching anatomy and gives us pointers on how to remember what goes where. Would most definitely take her again.
Professor Carmona is an amazing professor. She teaches very well and explains every concept many times in class which is a very good way to retain new information. It is not an easy course but if you study and dont miss any homework or quizzes, you can get an A. Exams are fair, she gives enough time. Only lazy students wont like her. Loved her.
Professor Carmona is great! She does respond to emails if you ever need help. Shes very considerate and really cares for her students. Great lectures! Love her. This course is not an easy A. There is a lot of homework and a few quizzes which is a lot if you take it in summer A like I did. But it is doable if you work hard. Excellent teacher!
Professor Carmona was amazing! I took her for Spring Term A (8 weeks) MDC Live. It's fast so pay attention. Genuinely cares. Makes learning easy, does demonstrations and repeats things for retention purposes. There is a fair amount of hw on Pearson but not difficult. 2 Exams on BlackBoard. I will be taking her for BSC2086/L
EXCELLENT PROFESSOR. I really recomend it if you want to learn anatomy, she teaches the subject in a very understandable way and you wont have trouble to get an A as long as you pay attention to the classes. Her grading critirea is great, it all depends on homeworks and two exams. She answer emails immediately and care a lot about your concerns.
Incredible professor! Sent multiple emails weekly reminding what & when things were due. Midterm and Final were both only on 2 lessons each, so it was super easy to study for. Only thing I didn't like is that she doesn't open assignments until the week they're due so you cant work ahead. So work by the calendar. Definitely would recommend. 10/10!
I enjoyed her class , yes there are quizzes, 1 midterm and 1 final, but if you keep up with the study guides you are sure to pass .
the best!! i have a hard time learning online but this professor teaches really well. she genuinely cares and if you ever have a question she is there to help. is always sending emails reminding of due dates, easy quizzes because she covers it all. 10/10
Chill grading system. At the start, she said we could take our tests at home (could also go to class) We're all running out of gas here in miami and she decided to make the last test in person... Smart. Reason being: no one responds to her in class when she asks questions. If you take good notes, you're fine. Lots of pearson work but honestly okay.
She seems intimidating at first. But then you realize she is charming. Take her. She will give you every opportunity to pass the class.
Decent professor. was dropped two weeks before class ended. Missed a third day even though I had a doctors note and was dropped instantly.
The best ,she is very friendly and his classes are very interesting.
Prof. Carmona lectures the entire class time, she gives weekly Pearson homeworks and exams on canvas not proctored, she cares alot about attendance so if you take her beware of that. overall, she's really great!
Attendance is MANDATORY. She really doesn't play when it comes to dropping your grade for attendance. Very hard to get in contact with, had to write her several times and remind her in class a handful of times to check her messages. She has a heavy accent but not a bad prof. at all, class is manageable. No proctored test, but 4 exams & lots of HW.
She is a very sweet lady and teaches really well. She always makes sure you understand the material during class. The homework assignments are a little time consuming but not terrible in general. Exams are what weighs the most with your grade so i recommend you go over the material using the Pearson assignments since that is what i used to help me.
Best Teacher I've taken in a long time. Records every lecture, assignment for every 4 -5 chapters. Four Exams 68% unproctored and online. Super nice explains everything every well, she sometimes mixes up terms in spainsh. You'll for sure pass with Dr. Carmona
Professor Carmona is an amazing lecturer. Her classes are informative and she does a great job explaining everything in simplified terms. She repeats information and has students repeat back so that you really know the material well. She cares for her students and gives you lots of opportunities to get a good grade. I'm going to miss her class!
Paces weekly assignments in an extremely manageable way that had me working ahead every chance I could. Couldn't ask for a better or more well organized online course. Don't hesitate to enroll!
PLEASE TAKE HER! She is one of those professors that really cares about students. You have assignments for every chapter that are very straightforward and don't take long. There is one midterm and then a final. If you study, you can pass easily. Overall, Professor Carmona was the best! I don't regret choosing her at all!
This professor is truly one of a kind. She is EXTREMELY knowledgeable and tries her absolute best to explain herself in a way that everyone will understand. She is very understanding and caring towards her students. You will not regret taking her course. I took the quick 8 week semester, and I have never learned more in such a short amount of time.
Professor Carmona is a fantastic lecturer. She breaks down a hard subject like Anatomy & Physiology into lessons that are much less daunting and more digestible, and the homework is very manageable if you take good notes in class. You can tell she really cares about her students, and I'm honestly going to miss her lectures. A+ teacher
Amazing professor! Very clear and precise in her online lectures. She makes sure to explain everything thoroughly and she answers all your questions and records all the meetings so you can go back and review them. She's very kind and caring, and puts the students first. If you study and take good notes, you should pass this class!
She is amazing! The best professor so far!! She is really caring and a great great teacher, she really wants us to learn and is always there for us🫶🏼
Took her for the 8-week term and she is one of those professors who cares and understands her students. There is a midterm and a final. Homework is assigned at the end of every chapter but very simple. She explains stuff very well and repeats information if you don't understand. Loved her and I don't regret taking her class :)
This teacher was a very good caring teacher. not too much homework( you have 3 attempts to get a good grade.) the highest grade will be graded. If you study well you will pass the class. lots of notes and tests are based on the homework.
A professor who genuinely enjoys her job. The workload is manageable with just one weekly assignment, and the tests are like the assignments. If you are worried about her accent or email responses, Reading the PowerPoints is enough, and she's always ready to answer questions on Zoom.
She is good and nice, her accent makes the class a little more complicated that already is, but she would explain to you until you get it, LOTS of HomeWorks and proctored exams.
I have mad respect for her. I like her, she is my style because she is thorough, I perfectly understand what she is saying and when I take her class I retain the information and I have a clear understanding of what I know and what we haven't touched upon yet when we finish class and have to take the assignments on Pearson. I recommend her so much!
I took her for BSC2085 online and honestly she's great, she gives one homework assignment and one quiz weekly and 4 exams total ( 2 exams non proctored and midterm + final proctored) obviously the class itself is not super easy since its Anatomy but I am taking her right now for BSC2086 as well. Shes also there to answer any questions.
Professor Carmona was a nice professor, and she cares that you fully understand the topics in anatomy. If you have any questions, she will help you. There is a lot of homework. The homework can range from 30 to 50 questions and some questions will have up to 8 parts in it. There was two tests: one in person and the second one online, unproctored.
She was really sweet, I took her for the 8wk lecture and she gave us lots of time to turn in our assignments and none of our exams or work were proctored. Lots of info to learn though, so I 100% suggest you study on your own time as well! All around really great prof, loved her class.
She was a great prof, I took her for the 8wk course and none of the tests or HWs were proctored- very easy to pass, and she's quick to respond to emails. All around very sweet, her class is very easy to pass!
Professor Carmona was always super sweet and caring. She sometimes moved due dates further back to help students complete them. She likes it when people participate during lectures. Tests are not lockdown browser (so you can use your notes lol).
Pros: Class was easy, weekly quizzes not proctored; midterm/final proctored. Reading textbook is a must. Responds to emails quickly. Cons: Will drop grade if any flags show up in proctored exam. She takes them seriously and will drop grade if anything is out of place. If you do decide to take her, take all your proctored exams in-person, on-campus.
took class online, consisted of 2 exams, and weekly homeworks. classes were very thorough; you will pass if you pay attention / study. she's very caring and nice, responsive to emails
She talked a lot, but she knows her stuff. Her assignments were long but easy, and you have 3 attempts. The tests weren't proctored.
This class was pretty easy overall. You have weekly Pearson assignments, and you can always do them after the due date for the same grade. Mid-term and final were unproctored, and homework assignment answers were pretty easy to find. I would definitely take her class again.
She's super funny, caring, and attentive. She never treated anyone badly in class and always took great care of us. There were quite a few exams, but overall, she's great.
Her lectures are amazing; she has a wealth of knowledge of her subject. If you attend her classes, you'll get an A without much effort. She's also flexible, and give you a lot of tools and study guides.
Professor Carmona class was not bad at all, there was a lot of McGrawHill assignments but they were doable. The only issue with her is the way she grades her midterm/final. She is a tough grader when it comes to the proctored tests. I would recommend to take her if you want a class that doesn't require much only some studying when those tests come.
This professor cares about your grade and your performance in the class. She is very prompt with emails. However, the Pearson assignments took >1 hour each and are 35% of your grade. The homework is very time-consuming. She is also a very tough grader when it comes to proctored exams; anything that gets flagged gets you a 10-point deduction. No EC.
She's a great professor! She explains the material very well. She's genuinely caring, accessible, and attentive. Her homeworks can be time consuming. However, she gives ample time to complete them, even in 8 week courses. Her time management for her lectures isn't amazing. You'll find yourself cramming to read long passages before the final.
Professor is a tough grader. She does study guides that are not helpful. Her first midterm is based on four chapters and the study guide had 100 questions for each chapter that's 400 questions as a study guide. Don't breath or make noises if you are proctoring exam, she deducts, her exam questions nothing based on assignments or study guide.
She moves pretty fast, quizzes every class about the last topic (even if you just brushed over it). She's super nice. Gives you a study guide of everything you must know, If you're in person you might have to sit closer to hear her. I sat in the back on some emo nonchalant type but it ended being really hard to hear her when I wanted to listen.
My class has been more stressed about this professor deducting points for anything, than about the actual exams. If you care about your grade or your mental health, do not take her. Even her homework is timed (20 min. to do a quiz), adding unnecessary stress to every single day throughout the course.
Avoid this professor if you have other time consuming classes. I've had her for both A&P 1 and 2, and both required more time, studying, and work than my organic chemistry courses! Midterm and final are proctored, and she deducts points for the dumbest reasons. Homework deadlines are horribly scheduled, and you'll cover multiple chapters per week.
She takes points off a lot during exams on flags. Study guides do not help. She does not round grades or drop or help students give them a chances, or extends an assignment, often blames virtual school but other professors online help out students during circumstances, her exams do not match her guidelines, gives impression she doesnt like teaching
i took both a&p 1 lecture and lab with this prof, and I don't regret it at all. just take her. shes super caring, and very lenient. no proctored exam in the lecture class which was an 8 week term, and for the lab there were small quizzes every week and 3 practicums. I know it sounds crazy but trust me j lock in w her class and you will pass.
This class was extremely difficult & stressful. The online quizzes were easy, however the mid term and final were worth 25% each and very difficult. Questions were too specific for 4 chapters worth of info. Study guide was not helpful and wasted time studying things that weren't on the test because questions could be about any random thing in book
