He teaches a lot and has a lot of knowledge but you have to KNOW the material he teaches to pass

Difficult prof! Tends to go off the subj. at times trying to be comical or "cool". Very unorganized--tends to bounce back and forth on subjects. Rd the text so you can understand his lectures. His exams are a joke! The ?'s throw you off to the pt. of having an anxiety attack. They are not straightforward so that you can learn from them in any way.

Awesome teacher so far

I was dissapointed in the lack of actual issues in this class, I was expecting in depth discussion on current issues, but it is nothing more than a plain mix of a human bio and regular bio course. Exams were unbearably hard, but curve was very very generous. Therefore I would recommmend this class, just dont hope for discussion.

Very difficult class. Prof Uzwiak is the bomb though. He makes the class so fun. There is so much info and his tests are impossible though. Slight curve.

His lectures are boring but very easy to follow. Doesn't take attendance or make you buy book, however, you must go to class because that's where the tests/notes come from. Even if you know ALL the material presented in the lectures, his tests in H. Sexuality are SO HARD!!! Good luck! Very nice, VERY FUNNY. looks like martin short lol

this guy is the best! he's fun, energetic, prepared, helpful and clear. the class material IS VERY hard and the tests are insane, he does curve, but you better STUDY HARD to do well. overall, take this guy, you won't regret it.

He's a great teacher but this is a hard class. Begins with bio but gets easier as he moves on to pregnancy and STDs. The tests are very hard and sometimes questions are unclear. He's a fascinating man and lectures in an interesting way.

The class itself is really interesting. It sucks to go to a 915 on douglass, but once you are there he usual keeps you interested. His notes are online, but at the end of the day his exams are ridiculous. You need to interpret the questions and read into them. I just feel like thats asking a lot when the material itself is so dense.

very intersting class. but a LOT of work, very in depth and specific exams. but as he said in the beginning of the semester (that this class would probably be one of the most informative classes you'll take in college) i think he is right.

Real good guy. Tests are hard as hell...STUDY!!! But he is a funny, easy going guy.

He is an excellent professor. He makes extremely hard material super easy to understand. His diagrams on the board go a long way in getting the hang of stuff, and questions pertaining to them sometimes show up in exams too. His exams are slightly hard, but fair, and they are all normalized. Good sense of humor. Take him if you can, but GO TO CLASS.

His exams are VERY HARD, but he's a very good guy and he helps you out whenever u need it. Make sure u go to all his classes and study his notes closely. You WILL work hard in this class and very difficult to get an A but its very possible if you know your stuff.

Really nice guy, great professor. He is very knowledgable and if you take him you will learn. His exams are tricky, but he is a fair grader and you will get what you deserve. Highly recommend.

He is hands down the most knowledgable professor I've ever had. Don't let his hard exams scare you into not taking his classes because you will definately learn from him and thats the most important thing. The exams are curved anyway, so in the end you'll get the grade you deserve.

Excellent professor. Exams are based mostly on lecture material and his class notes. Makes the material seem very simple while still keeping the class entertained.

Good professor but just alot of info to cram for each exam. Labs suck. The amount of study time involved for a 100 level class is insane. I recommend taking this course at a community college during the summer.

This class was so hard. Attendance doesn't count, but it hurts you if u dont go. his tests are ridiculously detailed, but the curve gives you a decent grade. Do not take if you don't have to---especially if you're a non-bio major. Don't expect an easy A

exams are hard as HELL...but very interesting class!! Def would advise to take it AFTER you get into nursing program bc it is a GPA killer!!! Even if you fail, you will have probly learned more in this class than any other. I would def take it again. He is extremely nie and so easy going...also probly one of the most "intelleigent" i've met.

peole need to stop complaining....rutgers actually has a decent professor who knows what he is talking about. its def not an easy "a" but you get what you came for....knowledge

I've had professor Uzwiak twice now, and his classes are hard. There is no easy A. His teaching is great and I've learned a lot from his classes, but his exams make your brain hurt. The hardest part is that your grade is based upon how well you do in relation to the rest of your classmates, rather than knowing all the information 100%

He is a pretty good professor. As long as you go to the class, and take all the notes. p.s. write down all he says, not just what he writes on the bored. And write his paper. Cause I didn't and I would have had a B, but I got a C instead. It helps.

One of the nicest guys you're likely to meet on campus. Very helpful, and gives great lectures. Unfortunately, the class is impossibly difficult. I was told it would be great for me since I'm a non-science major. Wrong. Even though you may understand the lecture material, the questions on the tests are obscure and difficult. Be careful.

Funny, when he taught Human Sexuality, his exam are much much easier. But when I took it with him for the Biomed course, his exam are horrible. Conclusion is that if you have to take a course with him, it has to be Human Sexuality which is offered in the Spring semester. I am a non-science major and if I can get an EZ A in it, you can too.

TAKE ONLY HUMAN SEXUALITY WITH HIM... DO NOT! I REPEAT, DO NOT BE STUPID AND TAKE ANATOMY OR BIOMEDICAL ISSUES WITH HIM BECAUSE HE WILL BE HARDCORD ON THOSE TWO. I TOOK ALL THREE COURSES WITH HIM.

took H. Sexuality with him last year and it wasn't bad. just do the review questions he gives out and you will see that most what he wants you to study is on the exam

I do not recommend taking this class with Dr. Uzwiak if you care at all about your GPA. If you want to learn then Uzwiak is great however if your doing this simply to fulfill your requirement then dont take the class. The professor is extremely smart but also arrogant, he brags about his undergraduate career and gets mad at stupid questions.

I am a music major and I got an A for this course because its not only easy but its just EASY. You don't have to be smart to get an A for this class because Dr. Uz's exams are easy and he even drops the lowest exam. YOu have to be literaly stupid if you get a B or lower.

If you see Human Sexuality 119:182 by Dr. Uzwiak, that is the class you would want to take. Class isn't hard at all and there are three exams and he drops the lowest one. Also, easy homework assignment that doesn't even go over 1 hour. However, I also took Anatomy with him, which he could be really hard. So only take Human Sexuality with Dr. U.

Just do the review questions he posts on the website and you will see that majority of the exams are from those review sheets... if you took intro to sociology or log reason persu and thought those are easy., well take this., its even easier.. but MUST look over the review sheet. 70-80% almost same questions.

Favorite class I've taken so far! It is the biology of reproduction so be prepared to know some basic bio. It is mandatory you go because there is no book or lecture notes online but well worth it! He is entertaining and just a genuine nice guy. Not as easy as people described below. The average for the class is about a 75 on an exam. Recommended!

tough tough class. exams are extremely detailed and confusing and i came out of every single one with no clue how i did. however the curve helps a LOT. i dont know where id be without it! really nice prof though and very interesting lectures. learned a lot!! i recommend the class just know the weekends before those monday exams will be ROUGH

Professor Uzwiak is hillarious.. he is really sweet and helpful and he makes the lectures very interesting. Attenance is not mandatory but if you do attend your grade will reflect it. The final is cumulative but bearable and he scales the grades. I would definitely recomend taking this class to suffice natural science requirements.

Personally I like the guy, good teacher, he teachs you, and wants understanding, not reguritation, weeding out the crammers and slackers. His tests are a bit ridiculous, its not facts, its interpreation, half the question is in understanding how he phrases it, which he doesnt do that well. Take his class to learn, not to do well.

ok, i see a lot of comments here bashing uzwiak and i really have to defend him here. i see why people get mad at him because his test are hard but its not like he doesn't scale the points... so in the end your grade will reflect how much effort you put in and you'll get the grade you deserved.

Definitely take this class, believe me life will be much better, you learn a lot of stuff &he is really good. sometimes its not the grades but other things that count when it comes to success in life.. btw his exams are not difficult at all, got As in all. but learnt a lot lot..survival kit to stay healthy in college and l8r!!

His lectures are very interesting. He's a funny guy, I liked him a lot. All his notes are online, and if you study a lot for the test, you'll get B. His tests are really detailed but if you study then theyre ok. Theres no homework, no attendance, no reading. I didnt mind going to this class. the tests are tricky though, so be warned

Prof Uzwiak is well... very unique. his lectures are either really boring or kinda cool. the class isn't to hard tho he makes the exams so hard that he doesn't know the answers but VERY GOOD CURVE. 2 exams,1 final; final worth 50%. i got an A on my first B+ on the second. U NEED TO STUDY in order to do well both class notes and lecture notes.

His lectures are detailed and may seem a tad bit overwhelming, but he is extremely helpful and very funny. His tests are impossibly hard, but the scaling is wonderful.

If you do not like "Reproductive Biology" and you are like me and thought this class was going to be fun and enjoyable, take something else for your own sake! His tests are crazy hard and confusing. He has his entire shpeel on how he WISHES he didn't have to "assess" our skills. Then why doesn't he make the tests a little bit easier!

Uzwiak is a great lecturer, he talks with animation, and you can tell he loves to teach, He makes jokes (some funny, some you just laugh at because he tried so hard) and is an overall nice guy. Very helpful, if you have a question, he'll make it a point to answer. the only problem is: HIS TESTS ARE EXTREMELY HARD! (But he does have a curve)

he's really nice but the tests are impossible...no matter how much you think you know before the test, it will still be difficult. Don't take it if you're looking for an easy class! It's more like reproductive bio not human sexuality. He does curve though

If you are good at memorizing notes than this class should be easy... if your not then don't take this class. I found the class easy bc I am a bio major but ppl who aren't but who are good at memorizing do well. His exams are hard but if you know the material inside and out you should do fine. EASY A!

dr. uzwiak is such a nice and funny man. his only set back are his extremely challenging exams. it just makes taking summer classes so freakin miserable!!!

Nice, intelligent teacher, always open to office hours. But his tests are EXTREMELY hard. Go to class, take good notes, and read the book. Like him as a person, but I thought his tests were unfair for non majors.

Probably one of the coolest, most laid back professors ever! i enjoy coming to class just to hear him talk. however, his tests are RIDICULOUSLY HARD. takes material that isnt that generally difficult and rewords it to be impossible on tests.

I LOVE THIS MAN!! he rocks! his test are absolutely and ridiculously difficult so i am happy with my B+, but he its worth taking his classes just cuz he's awesome

Very nice guy, but very hard tests. I wouldn't say he is impossible and unfair though. He wants his students to understand what he teaches and doesn't want to throw out A's to everyone. You need to earn it. He is always available at office hours and gives you good hints if you go. YOU MUST GO TO CLASS. Got an A both times I took him

I just completed his Human Sexuality class and was part of the "A" curve. I must tell you, though, that this course is not an easy "A!" It's actually Human Reproductive Biology - "Human Sexuality" is a misnomer. Come to every class AND study his note packet (available on his website) religiously, and you'll do well. Uzwiak is also very funny!

He's a brilliant professor. Very tough class and exams. Be sure to read his outlines he likes to use tiny details to trick you on multiple choice. Go to class to get points on the free response. He tends to get pissy after exams but don't take it personally he only expects excellence. study hard and i mean hard or you will will not get above a C+!

LOVED him. It's a great/interesting class about sex/reproduction. I'm a non bio major and I would recommend taking this. no text. just notes. Hard tests, but huge curve. And he's funny.

He is so funny and so sincere! He's a wonderful person and a great professor. Love how he expects the best- it makes you want to meet his expectations. His questions are tricky and you really have to know your stuff but that's the only prerequisite to true learning.

may seem harsh, but very nice and so long as you attend lecture, you will learn about neuro. he expects you to do well so long as you STUDY. just go to lecture, review, and go to office hours. you will eventually learn and understand neurobiology

He's a nice professor but this class was not what I thought it would be. You must study and memorize the notes. I wouldn't recommend it unless you really enjoy learning Biology.

Uzwiak is a nice guy with good intentions, but he's way too smart for his own good. He expects impossible things from the students and his tests are designed to make you fail. You'll learn a lot from this class, but it will also become your ENTIRE life. If this was the only class I was taking, it would still be near-impossible. DON'T expect an A/B.

Toughest exams compared to any other neuro professor. However, he's the most entertaining and smartest professor you'll ever have. Full comprehension and MANY MANY hours of studying is an absolute requirement for taking Uzwiak. Toughest professor ever, you'll work ten times as hard as you would for any other professor, but its worth it in the end(?

Cool proffesor kept class somewhat entertaining but you dont have to go just study out of the book, although he does give questions that are not in the book at all thats why i got B. Huge Curve

Took human sex and biomed issues. Lots of material, READ the slides. He's very entertaining and knows his stuff. Doesnt take attendance, but class makes the material alot less overwhelming for non majors

best science professor i have had, because he challenges you, and that is exactly what a university like Rutgers needs to keep pursuing, the challenge-response theory.Besides his excellent teaching style, he remembers me of a lesson my dad always tells me, challenge yourself, adore the mysterious, because the passion and spirit in us can be the key

Took Fundamentals of Neurobio with Uzwiak; great guy, great professor. GO TO LECTURE. VERY hard tests, but not impossible if you study/go to class regularly and really spend time on it.

Not an easy class although Uzwiak is a nice guy and good lecturer. If you miss class he posts the notes online but it is hard to read and become frustrating that you may look for other sources for info since there is no book. 3 50 question M/C exams and 100 question M/C final. Good luck non majors!!

great class but very difficult!!! Uzwiak is very smart a teaches well but expects a lot on the exams therefore to pass you pretty much need to attend every class. A big help is to actually record each lecture because the exams are only on lecture... NOTHING is used from the book.

he is a nice, funny guy and teaches well in lecture but no matter how hard you study for exams, unless you've memorized every single minute detail (he says to just know the bigger ideas but questions on his exams are so unfairly specific!!!) they are almost impossible!

Nice guy. His exam are just crazy hard. The questions are so hard to understand and are so confusing. I am working my butt off to just get a C.

Tips for taking a class with Anthony:go to lecture (his online notes are there to supplement lecture, not teach it to you--you'll find that difficult), be careful of WORDING during exams, let him know your name, and last but certainly not least:ASK QUESTIONS DURING EXAMS (do not hesitate on this). tough professor, amazing teacher. him in a nutshell

Getting a good grade is definitely possible, you just need to put a lot of time into this course. GO TO LECTURE WITH A RECORDER, TAKE GOOD NOTES, AND THEN LISTEN TO THE RECORDING LATER ON. If you read over your notes and understand the material, the test won't be too difficult.

pretty good professor although exams are quite difficult. one of my least favorite things about him is that he's really bad at responding back to emails. he complains about how much he hates technology so he literally just won't respond back, which is unhelpful and just rude. as someone else said it'd be good to let him know your name (in person).

Absolutely one of the best professor I have ever had. His exams are challenging but expects the most of his students. His summer Biology courses require 100% effort. If you're not willing to put in everything, do NOT take his class. The most important advice would be to bring a recorder,go to every lecture, and make sure he knows your name.

best teacher i've had yet at Rutgers. really fun and has great stories. exams are killer though so just study study study. go to class. don't solely rely on his lecture notes. don't freak out--he's a fun professor so just have fun in his class but when it comes to studying, don't slack off. getting a good grade is very very possible.

absolutely the best and hardest professor I have ever had !

anthonys adorable, hilariously funny, and a complete sweetheart..which is all great, except he doesn't understand that the class is not an informative pass/fail seminar or lecture series, but a requirement, and therefore the grade one gets is crucial. his exams are RIDICULOUSY hard, the hardest exams I ever took @ ru, and I took orgo here...

Dr. Uzwiak is an excellent professor and is truly a genius when it comes to neurobiology. His exams are extremely difficult and only those who really understand the material will succeed, which is how it should be. His methods are "hands-off" but if you go to lecture you will benefit from his extensive knowledge. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

My favorite prof at RU. Very funny and relatable so the lectures are interesting. Always there to help you with class or whatever is going on in your life. Genuine prof that cares which is hard to find a large school. He is brilliant so the exams will kill you.

For Human Sexuality - no textbook required. Provides outlines of all the lectures on his website, so it's not necessary to go to class (although he does keep it interesting if you do, which is a plus if you're taking it at 8:40AM like I did). Good professor.

Most brilliant professor at Rutgers! Loved every minute of his lectures. His exams are no joke tho, a lot of work! I had 1300 notecards for his final. If you REALLY work its not that hard to pull an A - he curves the exams a lot!

Dr. Uzwiak is a great professor. He is a very intelligent man and knows everything you would want to know about the subject. His exams are ridiculously hard and he bases them off of his lectures. Attend lecture, take notes (especially drawings) and go to office hours. He is truly a great profesor.

great prof, just dont take biomedical issues, so much work just to fulfill a requirement. choose a different science

Biology, Society, and Biomedical Issues was an interesting class - but don't be fooled, it's basically a straight up bio class. I'm a bio major and I thought the exams were RIDICULOUSLY hard - study his lecture notes AND practice questions, and watch out for A, B, C, A and B, A and C, or all of the above on exams. Overall good class! He's nice too!

Biomed and social issues class. 8 40 in the morning made lectures hard to attend, but it was definitely necessary to do well on exams. his exams are harder than necessary for non bio majors, but he curves so that your performance is relative to everyone in the class. however, somehow science majors are allowed in which skews the results.

Uziwak is a true boss. I have him for nuerobiology and he really knows his stuff. His tests are hard, but I feel that the student body respects him because they know he is trying to teach us how to think. I had him for nuerobiology.

Hands down, best professor I have ever had at Rutgers. His version of Neurobiology is WELL beyond Auerbach's but if your interest is in Neuro, TAKE HIM. He is absolutely brilliant when it comes to Neuro. As much as I hated his exams, he just wants us to understand the material and apply it. Excellent practice for MCAT questions!

This is a very difficult course. Biology-based material. Although interesting material to learn, it is overwhelming to memorize. Exams are tricky and detailed. Despite all of this, he gives a GENEROUS curve (3 exams - drops the lowest and 1 final). He makes the course a lot more lively and interesting especially because it's an 8AM class.

Interesting class, but I did not find him to be a great professor. Often unclear in his explanations, tests, and handwriting. Tends to start thoughts without completing them. Likes to rant. Test questions are difficult, made more so by atrocious grammar mistakes. Yet curve is huge and with the right amount of studying a good grade is manageable.

Don't take Uzwiak if you're lazy and expect to just get an A or B without putting in the effort. Nevertheless, he is definitely one of the best professors I've had at Rutgers. He gives very clear, thorough lectures and is very helpful. The exams are very difficult but curved so that they average to a C. Definitely record the lectures.

Took this professor summer 2012 and got an A. DON'T READ THE TEXTBOOK. Know his lecture notes like the back of your hand. Exams are crazy hard. Know the material well enough that you can spot minor errors and you will get an A. You have to study 2x more for bio 2. Tutoring is recommended as well as loads of practice problems.

I took bio 101 and 102 this past summer with uzwiak and it was extremely challenging. you dont have to go to lecture and you dont have to read the book, at all!! just know his lecture notes and try to get used to his testing style, it can be tricky but you can certainly get the hang of it. get tutoring and go to him for office hours..and study hard

This guy is such a nice professor. People are just lazy enough to talk about how hard this class is. if you are motivated to do well, you'll do well, since you have an awesome professor with awesome notes. I highly recommend him for those who want to benefit.

this is how you will feel after his exams: you're feeling like you just can't win, but you're trying It's hard to keep on keepin' on, when you're being pushed around Don't even know which way is up, just keep spinning down, 'round, down…

Don't but a book, just attend the lectures. The tests are near impossible so it could be a gpa killer. He knows his stuff but he is a hard teacher. He has a curve so if you study A LOT you can pull off a C+

Great professor but his class is just another specific biology class instead of focusing on the sociology or issues in the title. So if you have trouble with bio i wouldn't take this class. Only gives out important info in lectures and tests are ridiculous even though he's a good, well-organized teacher.

To echo what previous people have said, he's an excellent teacher and an excellent lecturer. However, his exams don't reflect what he teaches in class. If I had not taken the level of biology classes that I had prior to taking this course, I would have been utterly lost. Since that's not me, I have an A, but I don't expect that my case is everones

Having some background knowledge of anatomy definitely helped going in. He is an excellent lecturer and raconteur, however, his tests are extremely thorough and loaded with minute details that can only be known from hours of studying. He is a VERY generous curver though, so do your best and he will do the rest.

Uzwiak is a friendly and highly intelligent guy. You MUST attend lecture to do well. The times I have missed lecture, I did not know that material as well. His tests are difficult, but as long as you put in the effort, it is possible to do well on the tests even without prior info. However, he warns you that most people will get a C.

Good professor, with personality, sense of humor at times. As he said he comes from a medical school, so his exams and even lectures are extremely long and rigorous. I think he curves the grade, or else no one would pass. Good teacher, difficult and complex subject to teach.

Most intelligent man i have ever met. Best professor i ever had, but HOLY T1TS his exams are hard. Really cares that you learn the material and you will, not that it will help on the exam though. You have to think like a neurobiologist to answer his questions and even then its hard. Great class if you actually want to learn the material.

His exams are like taking an AP test every four classes. It is possible to do well in his class if you study hard, but some people aren't used to this rigorous style of learning. I was always the type to cram, but this class has forced me to improve my study skills. I definitely learned so much, and he's such a charming, friendly guy.

He is a great teacher, I learned a lot, but his exams are the worst.

Best professor @ rutgers- HANDS down.. You learn a lot of infomation.. his tests are hard... but thats only because students are used to taking tests that require little thinking.. Spend a lot of time getting the concepts down and memorize what needs to be memorized and if you can out perform the average, a "A" is def. manageable

Best professor I have ever had! Really nice guy but his exams are really hard. However, if you study his lecture notes, bring a recorder to class, and study hard you will be fine. An A is definitely doable. Dont bother even buying the book. I took the summer session if that means anything.

Don't buy the book, you'll never use it! Class is very enjoyable and interesting, there's not much work involved, but man are the exams hard! I recommend recording lectures and really knowing them all the way through! Don't expect him to email back, go to office hours! Be ready to study a lot!!

I took bio 102 over the summer and got an A in bio 101 during the school year. You definitely dont need the book for 102 but he doesn't do much teaching in class. He is a really nice, personable guy but he simply reads through the notes word for word. The exams are ridiculously hard,I would have gotten an A if it was offered during the school year

He is the best teacher in all of rutgers. he seriously cares about what you learn and the fact that you will use it when you get out of college. everyone should take his class. The crazy workload will benefit you so much later on.

His class is very interesting and helpful; however the exams are so difficult. We need to understand rather than recite. But if u work hard you can get good grades.

This class is tough. Uzwiak's exams are very hard to do well on, however he makes the stuff you're learning interesting and easy to understand. Overall, he's a good guy with a positive disposition. You don't use a textbook at all so you only rely on your notes/the notes he posts online (which aren't very detailed)

It is a difficult class, but if you put the time in to actually understand the material it is fair. His tests are not generated to make you fail, but to test your knowledge rather than have you regurgitate information. Also,curves are generous. He is very knowledgable and helpful. I recommend recording the lectures and reading the textbook as well.

He is really smart and interesting, but his exams are hard. If you take him, make sure you don't have many other sciences classes along with his class. If your looking for an east A or B, this is not the class. Attendance is mandatory. don't get the book. class is lecture based. Most people record the lectures.

He's kinda full of himself, but nice. He gives you a lot of info but does not use powerpoint lectures or use the book. He gives you an outline and writes random stuff on the board. I learned nothing. His exams are impossible as well. Take Fund of neuro in the Fall if possible.

I have a lot of respect for this professor because he's definitely very intelligent and knows what he's talking about. But this class is nuts. It's meant to be for non-science majors but I'm a Biochem major and I got a B. His tests are SO tricky and I feel like he doesn't really talk about issues in science anymore than a regular Bio class does.

By far the hardest class I've taken. Dr. Uzwiak is definitely a genius and will work to prepare you for the medical field. Not the typical Anatomy class we all took in high school. Read up before lecture, study afterwards. Such a nice guy too. You'll learn a lot in this course but it's certainly not easy. DON'T SKIP LECTURE.

I won't lie, this class is hard because of the amount of material that you have to know. Don't bother buying the Seely's text, just make sure to have the Lab Manual and to mainly study off of that and lecture notes. As tough as the class is, most people I've talked to did pretty well so don't be too intimidated... just make sure that you study!

The best professor i've had at Rutgers. Hard as hell but I'm excelling in my neuro class in medical school because of him. I will never forget how much knowledge and the way of thinking he has given me and even wrote my letter of rec. He wants you to succeed, you just need to put the effort in and you'll get the A.

Dr. Uzwiak knows everything about what he's teaching by memory. You can tell he is passionate about teaching, especially educating the future healthcare professionals. As a nursing major, this class is the only anatomy class we are allowed to take. It was the most stressful class in the world. But you learn a lot and learn to work hard.

Great professor, you need to record and remember everything he says. He has online practice that is way too easy compared to the exams. The exams are very tricky, but the curve is generous. He wants students to learn and take something from the class and he does a good job of it. Although I got a B, this was one of the best courses I've taken.

This was one of the hardest classes I've ever taken, but I've also learned more in one semester than the rest of my classes combined. He knows it's difficult, but he's extremely helpful and loves answering questions. DO NOT fall behind, constantly review his online lecture notes, and take advantage of lab time. fantastic person and class!

He is a great professor! But his exams and quizzes require strenuous amount of studying. In the middle of the semester, this class gave me so much stress. I'm just happy I passed. Onto Anatomy & Physiology II

Took essentials of Human Reproduction with him. He is a great lecturer, great person and really interesting. His exams are hard but he curves them so as long as you go to class and listen to what he has to say you will get a good grade.

Fantastic professor, brutally hard exams. No matter how I did on the exams I learned more than I had with any other teacher ever. So much important information and it's all really interesting. If you care more about learning than the grade, take this class.

He made me understand what it takes to be a good student. You can not be lazy in this class. He goes though the material quick. Make sure you record his lectures then listen to them and update your notes. Some advice is to be attentive to details., watch extra videos, go to tutoring. Even though the course is difficult he is a great and fun guy.

This class will become the focal point of your semester. Go to class. His photographic memory remembers who is there. He is more likely to help you out or write you a rec. letter if he remembers you. His notes online are your bible, not the book. Listen to his recordings on repeat. You will walk away knowing so much.

Nice guy and I definitely learned a lot, but his exams are poorly worded and most of the time you're just trying to understand his grammar. He tests on material not covered in lecture and posts practice questions with wrong answers. Some lectures are taught very well, and others are not very clear. Too much stress and time put into this class.

Uzwiak is a really personable guy. He presents you with all the material you need to pass, but it is HARD and takes a LOT of studying. A&P will be hard no matter where you take it, so I'm grateful that he is so knowledgeable & helpful. Got a B avg (with curve) and he bumped me to an A without me even asking. Just do your best and show it!

He is an AMAZING lecturer, and i don't think I've ever learned as much information as efficiently in any college class ever. His exams are INSANE tho, the highest score s usually well below an 80% before the curve. He says his exams come straight from the lectures, but there's a lot of random Q's on exams he never went over. Many ppl do poorly :(

Great professor. Actually teaches. TO do well go to class & record and replay everything he says. Exams are hard and you need to understand what's going on because rote memorization can only take you so far (if even somewhere ...). Study hard & he is 100% the best

Anthony has very good lectures, but his exams are probably the roughest I've ever taken. You have to really study and know your stuff if you want to be ahead of the curve.

Professor U is a really smart, interesting guy and he gives amazing lectures. But the style of his class is definitely not for everyone. Your grade is dependent upon 3 exams, no hw or attendance/participation points. If you're like me and would rather study hardcore once in a while than do hw and attend class all semester, take this course

I loved Dr. Uzwiak! This class isn't great to take as a freshmen, it's better if you've learned how to study your own way before taking it. You need to be able to memorize details and everything he talks about in lecture. It's a good class for good test takers. He appreciates hard work and if you make conversation with him. There's a curve.

This class is honestly probably the hardest class youll ever take. But I will say it is totally worth it. as long as do the work and study hard youll do well. I took this class as a prerequisite for OT school, and it helped prepare me profoundly for my graduate level classes. My graduate level anatomy class was a breeze After taking this course

Dr. Uzwiak is great. I learned so much from him. Anatomy is supposed to be difficult, and he makes it fair. I feel really prepared to be a good health professional by his class.

Took Neuropsych w/Mayhew at the same time, and it helped a lot for this class, especially on the 1st exam. His personality is love it or hate it, but he made class interesting. Very good prof. Only uses the blackboard but lets you record. Learned lots, but not sure how well exams reflected that. For us, a final 87.5% avg (already scaled) was an A.

Don't be turned off by any negative comments from those that did poorly (aka the kids who either didn't care or didn't know how to study). He genuinely cares about his students, so put in the work & you'll get an A or B. If you don't want to take this class because you're afraid it'll ruin your GPA then you just lack confidence in yourself.

He is a hard professor and his exams are difficult, but there is a lot of curve. I studied not too hard for an exam and didn't out that much time into it and managed to get a B. You just have to pay attention in class (record the lesson if your smart and wanna do good), I can guarantee you'll at least get a B or A. Just don't be lazy.

Amazing prof, genuinely cares about the success of students & is very enthusiastic. He doesn't make it easy though, you have to go to lecture (he lets you record) & you need to make sure you study his notes. Book can be found online(he doesn't care what edition). Only graded on 3 tests, test are very hard but he has a huge curve, so it works out!

These comments are all so true. However, he has smart kids and you will have a blast in his class. Jk. Very tough tests indeed. Work hard everyone!! Good luck on all your exams much love.

He's a very intelligent person- and holds others to the same standard as him. His exams are difficult and oddly worded (don't point out spelling errors he'll kill you). He tells a lot of funny stories mixed in with lectures, and sometimes completely derails from the current topic. Overall he may be difficult but you can tell he actually cares.

This class is nowhere near as hard as people in the comments have made it out to be! As long as you take detailed notes and study, you'll get a good grade.

What a guy I didnt get an A in this class but this class was the most interesting class ever. If you want an easy do not take it with him but if you actually want to learn something take this class. I took it because I thought it was interesting. No regrets amazing class.

You definitely need to work hard all year. Record lectures, take notes, & copy down everything he puts on the board. I'm not sure the book was of much use besides maybe clarifying a couple things. Its kinda up to you how you study and learn, but he doesn't pass everyone so beware of rumors. I passed both semesters but it's not easy. Stay focused.

really good lecturer, never met a person smarter than him literally a walking anatomy book but his tests are very difficult and you really need to prepare from them to get a good grade; however he does curve everything so even if you don't do amazing you should be fine. all of his tests and quizzes are based on his lectures so record them

He really cares about his students learning! His teaching is extemporaneous and he knows the material very well! Very dedicated to teaching! the class is lecture heavy! if you put in the work the class is easy!

I had this professor for 2 semesters, A&P l and ll, my recommendation is to keep up with the lectures/material and dont fall behind. Anthony is a genius, knows his stuff, and truly wants to you to learn and do well. You will learn a lot but exams are difficult. BUT he curves like crazy and somehow you just dont fail lol.

I took A&P I and II. It is easy to fall behind but make sure that you keep up with all the lectures. His exams are difficult, but you can do well. There is so much to learn and he does a good job presenting the information. I had both professors for lab but I did do better with Bill. It wasn't easy but if you really put in the work you'll be fine!

Had him for 2 semesters, online, A&P I & II. He is not good at answering e-mails. He is kind, VERY knowledgeable about the human body. Had 5 hourly exams, 1 final. Drops lowest hourly exam and replaces it with the average of the other 4. It is a hard class, but watch all lectures and take LOTS of notes. You cannot cram for these exams successfully

Is Anthony tough? Yes. I got an A in his class and there is no doubt his class it tough. However, you will learn so much. Are his exams tough? Yes. You will need to know the material fully and even then you are confused by his exams. However, he genuinely does care and if you take some time to study, you will learn so much about A&P.

Professor Uzwiak is THE BEST teacher Rutgers will EVER offer. you will learn A LOT about biology in a way that will keep you interested in biology throughout your academic career. Unlike most professors here at Rutgers, he teaches everything based on his memory. He doesn't use terribly done and zero-effort-copy-paste presentations.

Dr. Uzwiak is hands-down the best lecturer I've had at Rutgers. He does not use any type of PowerPoint, he simply stands up, talks, and draws on the chalkboard. This makes it easy to follow his lecture and take notes. However, because he does not use PowerPoint, it is necessary to attend class because he does not upload notes. Brilliant professor.

Watch and take notes on his pre-recorded lectures before class to prepare and record his in-person lectures so you don't miss anything. Try not to skip any classes. His lab is also very straightforward. Having Anthony was definitely challenging, but you learn a lot. Anthony is very knowledgeable and greatly prepares students for the medical field!

Bro is brilliant. He cares about teaching you so much, but you have to put in 110% of your effort. Make sure to look at all notes he posts. It'll probably be your first semester ever at RU while taking this course, but you can't relax or go party, as much as you want to. As long as you take this class, A&P is your life now if you want that A.

Prioritize studying over having fun because you will be judged based on the performance of others, and it can be tough to recover. Use no outside resources because most exam questions depend on lectures; develop study material entirely on it. Amazing lectures; you will learn so much. It won't be simple, but it is doable :)

A great prof and I learned a lot in his class, but the style of the class may not be for everyone. Only graded based on 3 exams (lowest is dropped) and a final. He doesn't take attendance, but you have to be present for the lectures bec he doesn't use slides. The exams are very hard but curved. This class is great if this format works for you.

He's a really nice guy but his exams will end you. I took this class during the summer so it was very fast paced but he was a much more lenient grader. He DOES NOT use power points and will usually draw everything on the board or just say it. Record him during his lectures because what he talks about will be the things he tests heavily on.

A great caring professor once you know him one on one. He cares deeply about his students and wants everyone to know all the info. He only grades based on exams but curves and doesn't use PowerPoint. You have to be engaged and listen to do well and review every day. But if you go to class, listen to him, and pay attention you'll be good.

Writing this as an upcoming senior now in nursing. The course is hard esp for freshmen, but Dr. Uzwiak is such a gem and really encouraged me to keep going down this path. Professors who really TEACH like him and Carew are so rare and these are one of the actual nursing relevant courses I feel like I learned so much.

A god in human form. Uzwiak values learning over random grades. As long as you know the material, you can work with him on improving your grade. He has a more old school style of teaching with the blackboard but doesn't expect you to make notes. He posts clear notes that he types out, which are very reflective of what will be on the exam.

Anthony is very knowledgeable about what he teaches but there's no doubt that this class is extremely difficult especially as a freshmen nursing major. Keys to passing: take good notes/recordings/pictures of the board, attend all lectures if possible, and do everything you can to understand EVERYTHING that's taught.

Easily one of the best professors I have had in my life. For someone who skips 'unnecessary' lectures, I looked forward to Dr. Uzwiak's lectures and learned so much from him. He is very knowledgeable and wants you to succeed. Yes, his exams can be tricky. But they force you to retain the material and really learn. Fantastic mentor and inspiration.

Professor Uzwiak cares deeply about teaching, but this class is really tough, especially for freshmen. Key is to stay on top of lectures, take thorough notes, and use resources like unstuckstudy ai to ace the exams. The material is dense, but doable with dedication.

Anthony is a great teacher who truly cares. Many people leave bad reviews about him but those people are usually freshmen and don't know how to study. As a junior in this class, it was easy as long as you put the work in. I used the textbook 80% of the time which helped me earn an A. He curves all exams and the final grade, which really helps.

Anthony is a kind professor who goes out of his way to say hello outside of class. Lecture is important and so is looking through the textbook. Stay on top of studying notes and you will pass. I recommend talking to him before or after lecture if you have a question. Tough content, develop good study techniques. Great curve on exams.

His class is difficult so you need to learn how to study. Take good notes and ask questions when you are stuck or unsure. He is willing to help his students succeed. Quizzes and exams are all curved as well as the final grade. You will learn a lot from him so take it all in and you will do fine.

Anthony is actually a genius and knows every detail about the human body. A really nice, genuine person who wants everyone to do their best. However, his class is tough and makes you learn how to study. Make sure to write down EVERYTHING he says and thoroughly revise your notes before exams. Curves are huge, but don't rely on them to pass.

Attendance isn't mandatory, but treat it as such. Attend every class (go to both lecture times if you're still confused) take notes, and draw everything. This course is challenging; don't expect high school-type grades. You will succeed if you avoid cramming, study with friends, read the pdf text for clarity, & use his lecture notes/past exams.

Anthony is a great professor that you will learn to love by the time you finish A&P 1 and 2. Its not an easy course and you need to find a good way to study. Attend all the lectures and take good notes. Use the textbook and most importantly the pdf notes he provides they have everything you need to know.

anthony is an interesting one. the class is heavily reliant on the lectures and your ability to pay attention and take notes. for me, i never read the textbook or used external sources to review. i solely relied on his lectures and BOX notes and was able to do well. anthony is terrible at responding to emails, so talk to him in-person. good luck!!!

I left another review for Anatomy 127, but I need to clarify again for Anatomy 128. I earned an A in both classes because I put the work in and used his BOX notes and videos to review Anthony's material! Great teacher! He curves a lot which is really nice! Again, freshman do bad in this class because they don't know how to study efficiently.

a&p I and II are notoriously difficult "weed out" classes but if you know how to study you'll be fine; i used flashcards and active recall and got As. exams are insanely difficult but curves are super generous. anthony's really nice, he talks fast but he teaches well. go to lecture or you won't pass the exams!

Nursing student here, I took A&P 1 + 2 with professor uzwiak. He's a very smart person and expects you to know a lot. He grades on a VERY heavy scale on both lab + lecture assessments and overall ending grade. I know people who ended with a 67 and finished with a C. His class is very difficult but doable, don't expect him to post study material tho

Very smart guy who knows what he's talking about. His class relies solely on exam grades, which are quite difficult, but he curves each exam. Focus on the Lecture material and the notes he posts on box, which are crucial to succeed.

An awesome professor, especially if you have him for A&P Lab. Talk to him after the lecture or labs, and he will answer all your questions then. Great Grader also.
