Dr Mullen, is very helpful and will tell you what you need to know from her power points slides. She gives short question for her quizzes and exams, ANP is tough but she assists you very much and she will guide you if you are not sure of something, not that she will give answers but she will guide you.I would recommend her, she is supper hot

Dr. Mullen does not give extra credit. She includes Multiple Choice, True/False and Short Answer on ALL of her quizzes and tests. The more you add, the more points she gives you. There is homework online as well as Lab assignments. She does give "push points" on exams. Record her lectures, take notes off them and you will do fine!

Dr. Mullen is wonderful! Not sure what the person below is talking about. I printed up all my powerpoints for lab and lecture about a month before hand. And the reason for the time on grading is because she does an idemized analysis and gives points back if its a bad question. Its always for your benefit. Study hard. It's very doable. Shes great!

Prof Mullen is an excellent teacher! She is extremely helpful and knowledgeable. She has the tendency to speak very fast when she lectures so recording her is a wise idea. However, despite her fast talking, she is very thorough. Also, taking her for both lecture and lab is a good idea because she repeats many key points for exams and practicals.

Always there to help. Little dry on lecture unlike Preston-she uses words that will stick to you. She gives you blank paper in lab for practical-study her slides and manual. Make sure you're not taking any classes, the exams are life consuming. Uses slides and book-but most tests out of slides. Exams includes 2 pages of mechanism(draw out)

Dr. Mullen is a great professor. A&P is difficult so be prepared to study, however she is truly willing to help you to be successful, just don't be afraid to ask for help. She has grades posted usually within a day, sometime two for exams, but if you go to her office hours she will grade on the spot. I will be taking her again for A&P 2.

I took her for both A&P1 + A&P2 & made an A in both. She talks fast so a recorder would be useful. Her exams are roughly about 60 MCQ's & about 5 short-answer questions, but she gives partial credit on those which helps your grade a whole lot. Powerpoints are given to you so just print them off, take notes, & make an A. Highly recommend!!!!!!

Had to drop the class, the class is highly based on Chemistry at the beginning of the class, yet it is not a prerequisite to A&P 1. She is very informative, and sometimes talks way over your head. The lab and the lecture have multiple assignments all at the same time that you must attempt to keep up with. Do not recommend taking with another class.

Mullen is great! Don't expect to pass if you don't study. Print ppts and record lectures! Lect long- covers a lot of info, you will NOT be able to take good notes if you don't record it. Test ?s are NOT directly from PPT. Q + T are hard but gives extra cred with short answer ?s- grades these generously. Comprehensive HW is review for final. STUDY!
