So far he is a great professor, very helpful and has a fun sense of humor
Can anyone say "HOT." Extremely cool and a cutie. Great professor! : )
He is a major hottie. He is very helpful and covers everything that will be on the test. If you need to take anatomy take it with him. You will learn a lot and enjoy what you are looking at (him).
He is an extremely good teacher. One of the best teachers I have had at Cuyamaca. He explains everything very well and gives you lots of review time to go over what he teaches. If you study the material, the tests are a breeze. He is an extremely good teacher but you must do the work to get the grade.
Brad is the best Anatomy professor!!! He has made this semester fun and educational. He has no tricks up his sleeves, he will tell you exactly what you will need to know for the exams. Awesome, awesome!!!!!
Great instructor, organized and consistent.
Great instructor! Everything on his tests and quizzes are covered during lecture. He gives you extra time for lab. His tests are on the easier side, but you still need to study. He teaches really well and his sense of humor makes Anatomy interesting and fun. Plus, you actually learn! What a cutie!
Brad is a great teacher. Very helpful and clear. All material for test is covered in lecture. He knows his stuff and wants you to be able to learn it. He is kind, great sense of humo and very good looking! Great job at teaching!
Brad is a great teacher. He knows his stuff. He gives you plenty of opportunity to learn the material. You just have to take advantage of the time (seriously) stay until the end, it will benefit you. Take his class. He is an awesome teacher. Does'nt hurt that he's a cutie!!!
AWESOME class!!! I only wish it lasted longer. One of the best teacher's I've ever had. (Not too bad on the eyes either!)
Brad is such a great teacher with a fun personallity. If you show him that you're trying and doing fairly well in the class you know he's going to pass you. He is clear and tells you whats going to be on the test. Its a hard class so make sure you study and memorize everything. A C grade in his class is a 69% Luv ya Brad! Thanks for a good semester
Great insptrustor. Hilarious, and extremely hot!!! got an A. Have to study though to get a good grade. An you can email him questions, like I did.
this was the best class, not because of the subject but Brad! all I have to say is YUM!!! I could not keep my eyes off of him and that made the class so much easier to go to. if it was not for him i would have failed the class. but all fun aside, he is a great teacher and very real & does not expect so much of you. hope he knows how much hes liked
I am a male, I'm straight and I have 60 units, so I will say this, They just don't get any better than him. Every students dream teacher. Learning doesnt get better when it is taught thoroughly, organized, clear and full help on anything at anytime. Dont miss class. Bio 140 is no joke. he is a funny guy too. I want to be a teacher like Brad
Brad is a great teacher. He is very helpful. Anatomy is very difficult but Brad helps you understand the concepts. Lots of memorazation but not too difficult as long as you come to each class and make an effort you should do just fine.
Brad is a great teacher. This is not an easy class but it sure helps having him as your teacher. He is fair and wants everyone to succeed. There is alot of memorization. If you study hard and attend all classes you should get an A.

Best class and instructor. I learned so much! He was voted best instructor at Cuyamaca (that should tell you something)If I ever had to take anatomy again I would definitely take it with him.
He is excellent in lecture, makes anatomy interesting, makes learning fun, tough on tests, but very helpful when studying/preparing for tests takes time to answer any questions
He is organized, helps you memorize by repetition, test are hard but he will go over everything before the test- lots of memorization- but you will do well! He's a great teacher.
Brad was okay, but the subject is not easy...and it is not suppose to be. I sat at the table with repeaters and they barely got an A if that. I escaped with an B, but I really didn't apply myself because of the lack of interest in the class. Make sure you sit with great people and you will do great!!!
Brad is a kick ass professor. He made one of the hardest courses in the world actually manageable through great instruction. He's a down to Earth guy and one of the greatest damn teachers I have ever had. Take the summer class with Brad and Kathleen. Sure, it's extremely intense, but it is seriously your best chance at an ace with this course!
Brad is one of the best teachers I have had. This class was a breeze. He does such a good job of explaining things and making the information easy to learn. As long as you study the lecture and lab exercises it's an EASY A. All you have to do is study the lecture. Don't even buy a book. If you want a low stress level for the hardest class take Brad
The best teacher ever...
Put in your honest best effort and you will do well in this dificult class! Brad is a great teacher, and very helpfull to his students!
This is one of the finest Professors I ever had the privileged of taking. He is knowledgeable on the material, He covers a lot of material so you have to come to class or you will not do well. The guys is funny and knows how to teach. I highly recommend him as a professor....In fact I would vote him professor of the year if I could.
Seriously the best teacher I've ever had. He is so extremely helpful and never makes you feel dumb for asking a question. He really knows his stuff and is always there to help. The class is hard and you will still have to study your butt off, but with Brad he makes it as easy as he can for you to succeed and learn the material at the same time.
This guy really knows his stuff! I really enjoy learning in the class. Vote Brad for Governor!
Great class, need to study a lot though. Don't take this class if you have other classes, a lot to learn. Brad is great.
This was my favorite class this semester! There was alot to learn, but Brad is very nice and extremely patient. I would highly recomend taking Brad's class if you want to have fun and learn at the same time. He should also have like a million zillion chili peppers!
Brad is awesome! He treats everyone equally, and offers all the help you need without making you feel stupid. He doesn't make it mandatory for you to be in class, but if you miss class, don't expect to get an A. He gives you all the answers you need to know for tests. You miss class, you miss out. Go to class, learn from him, and have fun!
Brad is such a cool guy. He answers any questions you have. Class usually finishes early but he sticks around to answer any questions students might have. He is easy going and makes a diffcult subject understandable. I recommend him 100%. Good teacher and good looking guy
Brad is simply magical. He is like a double rainbow on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. He is a star in my sky.
GREAT teacher. Your inout in this class equals your ouput. Time consuming, but if you study you're guaranteed a A just about! Brad keeps it interesting and fun! Wish he taugh Physiology =( HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Brad is one of the best teachers!! Class takes lots of study time, but an A+ is possible. He is entertaining, and very helpful. VERY cool guy. Absolutely love this class..and him!
he is the best.
Brad was the best, one of my fav. prof! Very helpful and clear on what he expects and He's also easy to approach. Class is hard b/c the SUBJECT is hard. Study the lab sheets and you'll be good. I always stayed after lecture to review labs, definitely helped, and he's there the entire time to answer quetions along the way also :) TAKE HIM!

Brad is one of 2 of my favorite professors I've ever taken in 60+ units worth of classes. He is a total sweetheart and extremely witty. Definitely handsome too! He has tons of patience and WILL MAKE SURE you know the material for the practicals.I luckily got to know him on a personal level which is beyond me in a college class setting.
HE IS THE BEST PROFESSOR IN THE WORLD! Anatomy is a very hard subject, but he makes it so easy! Just study study study. The tests are straight from the lectures and the lab sheets. An A is possible if you constantly study the material. He is the best, TAKE HIM!!! YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!
Brad is a great instructor! He is extremely helpful. If you ask a "weird" question, he still answers it with professionalism. Anatomy has a lot of content, but he does well with his teaching style. Great sense of humor. Very easy to talk to. I wish he was my instructor for all my classes. I HIGHLY recommend him.
He is literally the best bio teacher, very easy exams and quizzes. I highly recommend him and I wish he teaches other classes.
He made me love anatomy, he is a very nice helpful teacher. :)
Brad makes anatomy very easy. He explains the material in a good manner that you will not forget it. There will be six exams, six quizzes, and six assignments for the whole semester. Extra credit is only available as a question in each exam ( worths 6-7 points). Great teacher overall. Thank you Brad!!!! God bless you ;)
Great teacher, very helpful and easy
He tries to make it as easy as possible but Bio140 is hard by it self, study a lot. Great Prof. He allows to record him only with I-pad, I-pod, no cell phones in class at all.
Very tough class, but Brad makes it understandable. Study hard and take the class seriously and you'll pass. Very helpful and gives great lectures. Makes the class enjoyable . If you're gonna take Anatomy, it's worth it to take it with him. Awesome person and professor, but don't take him for granted. Best professor I've had in college so far!
Anatomy is a hard subject. Brad makes it a bit easier for you. Everything taught in class is on the exam. He does not throw curve balls. Repetition is key! He does give extra credit. He lets you take pictures and record with an IPAD/IPOD. No phones allowed. Study and pay attention in class. Ask for help, he will explain it until you understand it.
HE IS THE BEST TEACHER EVER. HE USUALLY LECTURE FOR TWO HOURS AND THEN YOU CAN EITHER LEAVE OR STAY WITH HIM IN THE CLASS TO STUDY, HE WOULD HELP YOU WITH ANY QUESTION YOU HAVE. I REALLY LOVED HIS CLASS. STUDY THE LAB LISTS REALLY WELL AND YOU WILL GET AN EASY A.
I'm just starting the semester but Brad is clear and concise. He goes over material until you get it. He stays the whole time so I can study more and review. He sure is cute!!
absolutely a real gem. loved professor brad very much. very straightforward. will never try to trick you on anything. Anatomy is very hard you will have to study be he is more than willing to answer any of your questions. 6 units, 6 very simple assignments, 6 quizzes. powerpoints are not confusing and will go around the each table with models.
he is just amazing professor helps to get ready for test , helpful when you have question for him , gives hint, easy A
Professor Brad should be the first one on your list when it comes to taking biology 140. One of the best professors at Cuymaca college. gives clear lectures he makes anatomy much easier. It is true that you need a lot of studying but he will give his students some advises such as going to open labs for more practice.
TAKE BRAD!! he is so kind and really amazing professor super helpful all the time. i really struggle with science classes and he made it do able for sure. always stays the full time to let students study. gives hints and extra credit in exams. this class is very difficult it he is the best trust me. oh yeah and he is a hot DILF
BRAD IS AMAZING. I just took the final in his class and im actually sad to leave. He was able to simplify this extremely difficult class. Hes definitely one of the best teachers ive ever had. Tells you exactly what will be on the test and gives extra credit on every exam. Hes clear, HILARIOUS, fair, and caring. If you get the chance, TAKE BRAD.
Brad is easily the best there is. Sucks to everyone who cant get in since his class fills so fast. Hes hilarious & really makes sure you understand what hes explaining. Ive been waiting to post this review since the 1st day because I was that impressed. Favorite prof. Class wasnt hard if you LEARN the info. Oh yeah, vote brad for governor :)
Brad! All I can say is THANK YOU for being the BEST! Anatomy is hard, however, Brad made it easy to understand. He is very caring, making sure everyone in the class understand his lecture. He offers extra credit on exams. Quizzes and exams are easy as long as you study his lecture and lab manual. Its is crazy on how much I've learned in his class!
6 exams multiple choice/short answer/matching/label, 6 quizzes multiple choice 15Q 10min, 1 HW assignment towards middle/end. Great professor very caring and helpful. He records his lectures and everything is based on his powerpoints and lab manual. No final. Each exam based on each unit for that time same with quizzes. Wish he taught physio/micro.
Brad is a diamond at this school: clear, crisp, and priceless. He should be in the colleges hall of fame for teachers. You have to study hard, but when you have Brad as your teacher, you will excel higher than Mt. Everest.
Brad is such an amazing professor. I was so sad to leave his class. Definitely the most memorable and enjoyable class I have had so far. You will definitely succeed if you put in the time and effort into this course. Very straight forward. He will never try to trick you on exams or quizzes. There are 6 exams and 6 quizzes. No homework!
he makes the class very fun and interesting, even though he doesn't go into as much detail. he wants you to pass and will help you when needed. Non-cumulative exams includes lecture material and labeling. he''s hilarious and always makes jokes to make you understand and remember. highly recommend!!
brad made anatomy so easy to understand. i actually enjoyed coming to class and learning. he really cares about his students. i wish he taught more classes such as physio, micro, etc ):
Class is a lot of material but he makes it easy. Just make sure you put in the time and effort to study. Such a caring professor, really cares about teaching students and making you understand the material. Answers as many questions as you ask without minding. Best professor ever, wish he taught other bios, they would've been easy A's with him.
~ To add on from last comment. 6 quizzes w/ 15 questions that are just lecture material. 6 exams non cumulative for final. Like one assignment. Trust me, you WILL miss the class. As hard as anatomy is, I still look forward to it because of how fun the professor and class is. Oh and good luck on Unit 4. Do good on the first 3 cause unit 4 is hard.
Brad is absolutely amazing. I looked forward to learning with him every T/Th. His lectures are so clear & he always cracks dad jokes which makes the class even better. It is important to pay attention in class and REVIEW! If you can stay the entire class, do so. Brad will help answer any question and will make sure you understand. THE best teacher!
Brad is awesome. They should make a hot sauce called Brad sauce, he is just so awesome. I only took a night class because he teaches at night. He is just like a full moon, bright and glowing. He brings just as much joy as a full eclipse.
He's very easy going. could 100% recommend
Studying is a MUST, you won't get an A if you don't study. Professor Brad is seriously the best ever. He taught so clearly and wanted all his students to do well. As we all know, anatomy is hard. However, Brad used different ways to make it fun to learn! Ask all your questions, don't stay confused because Brad won't mind answering your questions!!
Study, study, study, and then study some more & you'll get a good grade! This professor was amazing… truly puts his students first. The amount of knowledge I gained from his class was amazing.
This class is hard, you will need to study A LOT in order to get the grade you want. Professor Brad is great, but if you also don't put in the work yourself, you will not pass.
I have heard amazing things about this professor but getting a seat in this class is absolutely horrible. I don't have early registration like many out there and literally can't get a seat because the class fills up immediately. He only has one class the entire semester and they fill up before anyone else can even get to it. Have more seats plzzz!
Anatomy requires a lot of hard work and studying. It's not easy you need to study A LOT! As for the professor, he does his best to try to explain everything clearly, he knew when his students were confused and tried to explain it in a different approach.
ALL PROFESSORS NEED TO LEARN FROM BRAD, HE KNOWS HOW TO ACTUALLY TEACH
By no means is this class easy, anatomy is HARD so get ready to stay focused! But the professor is amazing at his job and is sooo sweet and caring, I wish all professors were like him. He goes above and beyond during his lectures and lab!
Dear Brad, (Ik you read these comments) TEACH MICROBIOLOGY WE NEED SOME GOOD PROFESSORS CONSIDERING THE OTHERS ARE ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE at grossmont AND cuyamaca. There are literally no good ones for micro. Also please make a TikTok!! BEST PROFESSOR EVER :) thank you for being you and hope you teach bio152 one day.
Hopefully he's allowed to teach other biology courses in the future; he'd be great at it! I love the way this professor teaches, it's very engaging. He motivates his students to do well :) During lab, this professor goes the extra mile to help his students understand the material!
Sooo caring, sweet, and understanding! Best professor evaaaaa
Brad is like a bald eagle taking care of his little birdlings. And just like a bald eagle, he should also be on the back of dollar bill. Thanks Brad!
This professor has good reviews but don't let that fool you. He goes through the lectures very quickly. His test are very hard when you ask him what to study his only response is everything. There are 7 test and quizzes that's it. He is very disrespectful. He fully expects you to spend all your free time on his class. Don't be fooled by his smile.
I failed anatomy twice with other professors and thought I couldn't do it—until I took Professor Brad Richardson's class. He's clear, focused, and truly gifted at teaching. He breaks it down so it actually makes sense. Just show up, listen, follow his lead, and you'll succeed. Brad is the gold standard for anatomy.
he was nice, kinda sad I won't be seeing him anymore
Brad was a great professor. He set clear guidelines as to what would be expected from us on every exam and was a very fair grader. Anatomy will obviously be difficult, expect to have to teach yourself a lot of the material and be prepared to study A LOT. You can definitely earn at least a B if you put the time and effort in! Thank you Brad!
For a very tough subject, he made what seemed to be impossible, possible! Always practice what was taught, the pace can pick up if you happen to be absent. The tests and quizzes were all super fair, whatever he taught, would be asked, and that's not something you can say about most teachers! By far the best professor there is!
Not sure how anyone could ever say anything bad about Brad. Literally the best professor at that whole school. So caring! I literally would ask him the same question like 50 times and he would answer it again and again until I got it. Unlike other professors who get mad after repeating themselves twice.
Brad is fantastic! He's a truly talented professor who teaches a difficult subject expertly. Course/Quiz/Exam guidelines are clear, and he's incredibly kind and patient - with a touch of goofy Dad humor that I REALLY appreciated. Exceptional teacher.
