I was extremely hesitant about taking Biology Lab (1005) and even more worried because it would be in a 6 week summer course. However, this professor proved to be extremely good, and really made the course interesting and the material easy to understand. He created such a welcoming and friendly environment that by the end of the course everyone kne
This is the best teacher I’ve had in Dade. I liked it so much I even volunteered to be the class monitor, which is very unlikely for me to do because never liked Biology. He is very helpful and always makes himself available to the students. It helps if you read the book, and study, but his lectures are very helpful too, so I suggest not missing cl
He is extremely sweet and very helpful.Like any other science class u must read the material. U cannot fail his class.
This professor is extreamely good. I would recommend him to any one. He has a strong accent and if you don't understand him he is more than willing to repeat himself. He gives alot of extra credit points so don't miss cl****. He sends his lectures too you before cl**** and he helps alot during his quizes. He is the best at Dade so far.
This proffesor is excellent, send power point for quizes,helps in class, gives extra points,helps helps and helps....he's the best ever, no matter his accent...who doesn't have it? I extremely recomend him, don't miss him.
could of gotten a better grade but i was doing too much other things. this guy place everything on his pp. and sends them to you. great lab teacher.
This is a great prof. He cares about students. He gives pp before each class. You are expected to study for quizes. If you attend class, pay attention, and participate, you can't get lower than an A. He is all about participation. Wonderful prof.
He is very hard to understand (thick Cuban accent) and his quizzes are totally arbitrary- sometimes really hard, sometimes so easy, and he does not prepare you properly for them.
I highly recommend Mr. Bidot!!Great teacher. Hard class. He will work with you if you show interest in the clas(but you must show interest). The Quizzes are hard sometimes so you must prepare for them. Excellent teacher over all, I passed the class with an A.
Very nice&funny oldman. His quizzes are super easy you just have to actually pay attention to the pp in class-which no one does. His practicums are exactly from the reviews he gives but you have to study the models. Every test or quiz has 5ish extracredit q's so even if you miss them you can get 100%. Im passing with an A with just a little study:)
Super nice professor. He willing to help you (even after you are out of his course). Tests and practi****come right from his power point presentations. Opened the lab manual once. Learn what he tells you to learn and he's an A for sure.
HE IS THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER !!!!,STUDY THE POWER POINTS AND HIS STUDY GUIDES FOR PRACTICUMS AND YOU WILL GET AN A+ IN THE CLASS FOR SURE ...TAKE HIM!!!!!STRONG ACCENT BUT YOU WILL UNDERSTAND HIM, HE LIKES TO HELP STUDENTS TO GET A GOOD GRADE ,EX EXTRA CREDITS ,EXTRA QUESTIONS IN QUIZ AND TESTS ,HE IS AWESOME !!!!!
He is a really sweet guy and truly interested in making sure you understand the material. His english isn't that great, but still manages to teach very well, and I learned a lot.
AWESOME PROFESSOR!! i love his teaching, as long as you study the powerpoints you're fine! his test reviews are GREAT. he is very sweet and cares about his students.
He's the BEST
Lab: At first I wanted to drop this class but am glad I stayed! He is very helpful. A little hard to understand his English but he is happy to help and checks your quizes during the quiz to hint you if you're correct. He also gives study guides that show exactly on test! Study though, the practicums cover alot of info!
he is the best...very helpful
I have one word for him AWESOME! This class is an easy "A" study his powerpoints and pay attention to him in class, because his tests contain whatever he specifically talks about. And you will be fine.I would definitely take him again!!!
He is an awesome professor! I had him Anatomy and physiology I Lecture and I got an A. Make sure you read and study his powerpoints because that is what is going to be on the exams. He will hightlight certain information in the powerpoint. You can print out his powerpoints from his wedsite. Also, he takes attendance so be in class every day.
He's the best professor ever. As soon as you study the PPP and study by the notes he sends, easy A. He teaches u a chapter, do a Quiz and the class after the quiz, the test. Very important to get A in the first quizes and test. I really enjoyed his class and took him for next semester. Important; First class a test about biology, and chemistry.
This for the lecture. Bidot is a nice man, no doubt. Very respectful to his students, and communicative. The class consists of a lot of quizzes and about 5 tests. Pay attention & study the PPP and BOOK (no need, but I recommend). Easy GROUP research paper. Get version A of quiz or test if you can *wink* Just try your BEST, guarantee you will an A.
take this professor! just gotta study powerpoints, and lots of quizzes. but he will let you take quizzes to raise your exam grades. strogly recommend.
I really enjoyed his class. He is a very good professor.
Best professor ever!
He's great! hE GIVES U HIS WEB SITE YOU PRINT YOUR POWER POINTS FOR EVERY LECTURE. HE TELLS YOU TO HIGHLIGHT IMPORTANT STUFF* IF YOU HAVE AN A AVERAGE YOU DONT HAVE TO TAKE LAST TEST OR FINAL. VERY HELPFUL AND NICE. GREAT SENCE OF HUMOR! DEFFINETLEY RECOMMEND!
Definitely would recommend. He gives you pointers on what is important so you have an idea what will be on the quiz. You can print out the entire lecture notes on his website. Helps you in anyway he can as long as you do your part (study and doing the homework), you'll be fine in his class. On top of that he is funny.
I took this professor for 2085 lecture and lab and 2086 lab I wish he would have taught the lecture at Kendall b.c he's amazing. He really cares about his students passing and gives you homeworks and guides for the lab practicums. I wish he would teach micro. Your amazing professor Bidot. Take him he's very helpful, you will need to study of cours
WORLDS BEST PROFESSOR!!! take him, you wont regret it! gives you all the information you need for the tests, and pay attention in class and you will get an A!!!
I have to agree that Prof.Bidot makes an effort to pass you. But I would not rate his class as a "great class". He reads from powerpoint with little or no comments. You have to study hard to learn. He does not take too many questions. He mispronounces most of the technical terms. Has a good character and he's fun. But far from a great lecturer.
Just took him this semester.The class is super slack.Everyone helps each other out on the quizzes & tests. He really helps in every way to help u pass.He cares about his students. Super nice, take him.There is no way u can fail his class.U do have to study though but it's not that bad. Huge cuban accent but u can understand him.Take him.
Bidot!!! is the man i lovee him:)) great professor REALLY cares about his students and goes out of his way to help..he is also very funny HIGHLY recommend him he is very fair:)
awesome teacher. will help in all he can and youll be sure to pass. had him for 2085/2086 and labs all A's.
the best professor. very helpful. gives extra credit. he cares about his students. highly recommended!
Bidot is the best!I took him for lab at bc this is his first time teaching at bc. He rocks! he gives extra credit and make sure all his students pass. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!Easy A or B
Awesome professor, he teaches thru powerpoint and answers questions as students ask.You can manage to pass by just studying the powerpoints but you need the book if you really want to excel. Gives study guides and is helpful. I learned a lot in the class I'd definetly take him again for BSC2086.
Very nice and helpful professor. He will answer any questions you have. He cares about his students and knows what he is teaching about. You will have homework and you will have to study, but pay attention and you will get an A.
GREAT TEACHER! The sweetest person and most caring professor I've ever had! He helps you learn and lets you know whats important. A++++ ! I wish I could take another class with him!
Lecture: I found that I was never able to predict this professor. When we had class he would run through the powerpoints quickly and just tell us to memorize it all. Dates were always moved around. He rarely answered emails or questions on time. The tests weren't too hard and he does try to make his students get a good grade. Study from the book!
I would love comments from people currently in his class..how was he this semester? Are the test really hard?
he is a good teacher. he give his test are like 50 question and der 6 test in total and 6 quiz in total..the quiz are like from 13 to 25 questions easy quiz..test are easy only if you study at least 3 to 4 hours a week. he give extra credit and homework. ders a homework assignment every test date.nice guy
Very helpful professor that really wants to see students succeed. Tells you whats important and gives extra credit thought i would get b and I got an A.
prof bitot is an excellent person, but what he put on the tests is not what is on the power points he gives. you have to learn a lot of material that will not be on the tests at all.
He is anice guy but not a very good professor, he does not know how to teach. He does give extra points in every test and the tests are easy only if you study from the book and at least 5 hours per week, usually the information that is on his power points it's not in the test so you really have ti study from the book and try to understand by yourse
I think he was a great professor. He curves the grading scale for test and he gives study guides for everything. You also have one research paper that he lets you do in groups of like 8 people about one disease. I strongly recommend to take him for anatomy.
AMAZING ANATOMY TEACHER!!! EASSSSSSYYYYYY A YOU WONT REGRET ITTTT
Funny teacher, does have a tendency to read from power points. Lots of tests and quizzes. It is possible to do well on tests but you must study powerpoints and you must use the book to help calirfy points that are not clear. Work hard in the beginning and it will pay off in the end when the material gets more challenging.
Funny teacher, does tend to read from powerpoints. Listen to what he says is important. Lots of tests and quizzes. Study both powerpoints and use book for material that is unclear. Work hard in the beginning anf it will pay off in the end when material is more challenging.
Dr.bidot is a great professor. He really cares and will help you. I am so glad to have had him for my anatomy lecture !
Awesome professor!!! Study his power points and you will do great. If you have questions he is always eager to help.
I love this professor, he is un pendazo de pan, is willing to help you and is super nice you will need to STUDY but is like everything in life. IF YOU STUDY YOU WILL DO FINE OHH AND BY THE WAY YOU HAVE TO PAY ATTENTION > VERY IMPORTANT IS POWER POINT :) GOOD LUCK
He is not a great teacher BUT he will help you get a good grade. You must study everything in the book, do all assignments & have good attendance in order to get an A. He Wants everyone to get an A, but you have to be willing to work hard. Very nice person.
he is truely amazing. you guys have to realize that anatomy is a very tough subject so it wont be cake but he truely helps you. i love him! test and quizes are hard but not impossible. he is very funny :) and you wont regret taking him!
I had him for bsc2085L very clear his quizes come from the power point, easy to pass he drops 2 of the lowest grades, homework, lab books,and project you will learn REALLY helpfull.
He is a nice guy and funny too. But you definitely have to study for this class, tests are hard, but he gives you extra points if you do the homework. You have a lot of studying for his class, but overall I was glad I had him for BSC2085.
He was awesome! Good power points, was funny, and gave reviews for test. If you can take him, choose him! You wont regret it!
Took him for human anatomy 1 and lab. Great professor. Got an A in both class. He's there to help and not fail you. Alot of reading though. Quiz and test every week or so. Great teacher!!!!!
Took him for human anatomy 1 and lab. Great professor. Got an A in both class. He's there to help and not fail you. Alot of reading though. Quiz and test every week or so. Great teacher!!!!!
Had Dr. Bidot for lab. Awesome and interesting guy. You show initiative and he'll help you out. Has a thick accent, but easy to understand (once you get the hang of it). Very much recommend.
He has a strong accent, but the class itself seems Chinese unless you study. HE WORKS WITH YOU. IF YOUR NOT READY FOR THE QUIZ TELL HIM AND HE WILL LET YOU TAKE IT NEXT CLASS! He wants you to pass hand down.The final all you have to do is pass and he bumps you up a letter grade. I WOULD RECOMMEND ANYONE TO TAKE HIM, HE'S AWESOME!!!
BEST PROF EVER.. HE GIVE A LOT OF EXTRA POINT.. IF YOU PRESS ATTENTION, YOU WILL DO GOOD IN HIS TEST, SO WONT HAVE TO DO FINALS... I TOOK HIM FOR 2085 AND THAN JUST WHEN TO DOWNTOWN TO TAKE 2086 JUST FOR HIM.. YOU WONT REGRET IF YOU TAKE HIM!!!
Excellent Professor.You have to study, but he is extremely helpful.If you pay attention to his lecture, and study on your own you can get an easy A!! Highly Recommend
Awesomeeeee!! Highly recommed him!!!
had him for anatomy lab. dont buy the book u wont use it much. super easy class took him for summer and if i could i would take him again...SUPER EASY!!!
Great professor. Took him for A&P lab. Very knowledgeable. Got an A
This is a great teacher. I learned alot and he is extremely helpful even during the tests if you ask him he will give you hints to the answer. He does not want anyone to fail. There is alot of information so you must study but he makes it fun. Every class is a stand up comedy. I loved it. Highly reccomend him if you want to learn and get an A
GREAT!! HAD HIM FOR BSC LAB... LOOKED FORWARD TO CLASS EVERY WEEK...HAD A BLAST WHILE LEARNING...HE'S EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE, BUT VERY HUMBLE. THIS IS NOT EASY MATERIAL SO YOU NEED TO STUDY, IF YOU DO HE WILL DO ANYTHING TO HELP YOU...BEST TEACHER SO FAR!!!
he is an amazig teacher, the subject is hard but he makes it easy quiz every class but not so much information and helps youu a lot i got an A
He is an excellent teacher. He is always trying to help his students and help them improve.You must study. VERY IMPT! Go To Class! His powerpoints are all available on his webpage. I recommend him!
If you just want to pass without learning anything, take him. He will be your GPA booster c: But one thing i dislike about this old man is that he tries to make fun of you to make himself stand out, and he won't even notice that the jokes he makes are actually insulting.
Nice guy .. Your on your own when it comes to studying. He has power points you will have to study because he just reads off of them.
WOW I wish every professor was like him! He is such an amazing person both on a personal level and professor level. He is fun and so helpful! And you do learn alot! He genuinely cares for his students and is willing to help in any way.
This teacher i definitely recommend.
This class was great! STUDY THE PP'S!! Powerpoints are very clear and precise. Study guides may be given, but if not he will review before exams. Attendance affects your grade so be sure to show up! Group project due at end of the semester. Exams come from material in class/power points. Record lectures and you will be sure to do GREAT! I did! :)
I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS PROFESSOR!. No textbook needed everything is off his power points this is deff an easy A! but you do have to study if you show him your trying he will help you. Best A&P Professor in MDC.
AMAZING professor! This guy truly cares about your grade! He will do anything to help you. Study his powerpoints and you'll be good!
All I can say is take him he is the BEST without a doubt, he cares about his students very important and he knows his stuff,, they should have him training some of the other proff that give this course,,Absoluteley THE BEST,,TAKE HIM!!!!!there is no other like him he is there to help you not mess up your grades,, unlike some of the others
Absolutely awesome. His tests are tough and sometimes involve very specific information, but he is an excellent professor.
Prof. Bidot is great! Very helpful, super understanding and lets you make up quizzes and tests. Drops the lowest quiz grade and test grade.
Students if you were dying to know one of the world's most marvelous master piece,I encourage you all to take a class with this guy.This is it.He is super talented,eminent professional plus he makes the class sooo hilarious and you learn actually.He is super empathetic and helpful @ all times.He is not complicated @ all,always approachable.Nice!
Students this teacher is not only easy but very approachable. Go to class, pay attention. Very simple and easy assignments. I guarantee you will pass with an A! Have fun!
This prof. is outstanding!Took him for the Spring 2012 semester lecture/lab and passed with an A. The material is not easy but he makes it fun and he is very flexible when it comes to grades. His power points are good enough that you do not need the book for class. Best teacher at the campus!
This prof is super fun!!! U will love to be on his class!! he's very nice, funny and clear while explaining! I took lab with him, if u wanna do good, just be on time so u have time to do the quizzes, and study for the quizzes they are 80% of ur grade :)
This prof is super fun and noce!!! You will love to be on his class!! I took lab with him, just be on time so u have time to do the quizzes, and study for the quizzes they are 80% of ur grade :)....quizzes are not that hard if you study...
Great professor, his test are very easy if you study with his power points, very understandable and dedicated I highly recommend him to get an A
I had Dr.Bidot for the Spring term and had him for lecture and lab. I'm so glad I took his class. He is super funny and gives reviews before his tests. You need to study for the tests. He is very understanding and tries to help out his students. He's not out to fail you. DR.BIDOT IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!
HE IS THE BEST!!!!! Take him you will not regret it. So far BEST teacher I've ever had :)
Great professor. A&P 1 is hard as it is, but he does a great job in simplifying it so we can understand. The tests were a bit difficult and studying is a must. We barely ever used the book as we used the PPT, but studying the book really helps you grasp the content. He is funny & keeps you awake. He does have a minor latin accent. No biggie.
He is a great professor!! He gives you a lot of chances to bring your grade up if you need it, I had a C and was able to bring it up to an A with the final!! Take him you won't regret it!!
This is one of the nicest professors, but he is not clear at all when telling you what will be on the quizzes and tests. He tells you to study the powerpoints and to read the text if you want "extra knowledge" but the test reflects more of what the BOOK says than the powerpoint. Not an easy class, but he tries to make it bearable. Strong accent too
This is one of the best professors that MDC has. Those who are complaining about him its probably because they have never taken a science class. He does have an accent, but who does not in this college??. He provides lots of materials to get an A. Do not even need the book.
Took him last semester he is great enough said.
There are not enough nice words to say about this man! Truly special! So intelligent, understanding, helpful, gosh I can say so much about him. Definitely one of the few professors that have left an impact on me. You dont find them like him anymore. Love him! I just hope he knows how truly special he is!
This professor is super funny, he get the whole class laughing. He wants everyone to pass and also learn. I will definitely miss him.
LOVE HIM LOVE HIM LOVE HIM EVENTHOUGH WHEN HE SAID "ONE POINT FOR YOU" WAS ALL A LIE. LOL. VERY HELPFUL PROFESSOR AND FUNNY. HAD A BLAST IN HIS CLASS. GOT AN A. TAKE HIM!
Took him for bsc2085 and got an A.He is clearly a very knowledgeable person and doctor.Very smart!He is a little bit disorganized.Final is optional!Easy research paper!Funny professor.I recommend him.Must study!
His classes are sweet & short, he teaches what you must know for his test. You must study the power points & read the book for extra knowledge. He does e-mail you a study guide prior to his test, which makes it easier. You definitely have to study and work hard. Final is optional to those with good grades. Highly recommend him!
any one that has something negative to say because this man is lying! Dr.Bidot is the nicest prof. ive had in a long time he really cares about his students and wants you to learn. the test arent cake but if your willign to study take his class because his an amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!prof and an even better person!!!
He is AMAZING !!! the best professor ever. Make sure to pay attention to the remarks he does in class, it is only with the purpose of making you remember what he is teaching. In class, he uses his power points but you need to read the chapter in order to understand the lessons. The class requierds dedication; study hard.
Great professor, He is very knowledgeable. Dr. Bidot will help you if you are willing to study and show interest in his class. Pay attention in lecture and the lab should he easy to understand.
Dr Bidot is awesome!! He is the best, knows the material very well. Quiz almost every class, very helpful.. Take him you will not regret it
He's an excellent professor. You have to pay attention in his class, do quizzes and homeworks almost every week. A lot of work, but you will learn. He explains and he is also funny.
this man is such a sweetheart. he's an amazing individual and in my opinion, the best teacher at dade. he's always talking about "love" for some reason lol anyway, if you apply yourself, you'll definitely pass this course. I passed with an A but i did have to work for it. no need to buy the book at all. just stufy his slides. take him!
He is such a sweet guy, but he is too unorganized and unclear about testing. He provides a study guide and a review the class before the test, but only 50% of what you study is on the tests. You literally need to study EVERYTHING. Dont be fooled by a study guide.
Best professor! Cannot stress what an amazing human being he is. I can honestly say I've met less than a handful of people like him in my life. I had to bust my butt studying but it was well worth it. Show your interest and dedication and he will work with you. Take him!
He is one of the nicest professors I have ever met. He is a doctor and knows a ton. His power points are very basic. Just study, you will do fine. A+++ for Dr. Bidot. Take him!!!!
He is an amazing human, sweet person, he worried about his students, he tell you what is very important and give you a study guide every time before test and send it to your email, he reply your email quietly and if you need extra help he is there, take him you won't regret
Great guy, very good doctor and professor. You will definitely learn. Although not a class for slackers. Cuban accent but worth it, makes class interesting. Does not like absences. One of the best professors I've ever had.
I took this professor for BSC 2085 / 2085 L and 2086 class. This professor is amazing he is extremely helpful, and explains all material very well. This professor does have an accent. He speaks Spanish / English . He uses a PowerPoint presentation to teach his classes. He has a website that you could download every PowerPoint presentation, and study it and it's exactly to the quizzes as well as the exams. This professor is a Sweet heart. I highly recommend him if you want to pass anatomy w/ A
Take him!!! The best anatomy professor you could ever have, he is amazing. Makes everything soo clear to understand. He uses powerpoints which you can download from his website, buying the book is optional. Not only is he a great professor, but an amazing person. He is very helpful,caring, and understanding. Study what he tells you have an A++.
Professor Bidot is a great professor. He really wants you to learn and at the same time is really helpful. The only downside is that the test and quizzes are really hard you need to study everything. He gives you a study guide for the test but it's not helpful.
I learned so much in this class. He's very understanding, but unorganized. Over all hes great! And yes, he curves your final grade.
Dr. Carlos Bidot is a great, knowledgeable professor. He uses power points to teach & his sense of humor puts the cherry on top! He gives 5 tests and drops the lowest score. Those with an A wont have to take the final.
hes a great professor. he makes everything clear to understand. uses powerpoints. knows what hes talking about. if you pay attention in class you can def pass with an "A" all powerpoints are online so you don't really have to go to class, he rarely takes attendance. thick Cuban accent. funny and jokes around. take him.
Dr. Bidot is a great professor, he is rather funny. He uses powerpoints to teach and they are literally summaries of each section and subsection in the book but the book is just more detailed for those who are interested. 5Test, 6Quizzes, drops 1of each. Pass the Final and you get the next grade up! Awesome!
He's a great professor! He has good sense of Humor, and he teaches very well, definitely take him!
first day of class was already telling us that we had to do a project and homework and test no i didn't like this professor at all
Great prof!!He uses PPP which works great since he highlights over what your should remember. He does have a bit of a Spanish accent but overall you could understand this man easily! He is funny, cracks jokes & truly cares about his students. He will give you extra credit points, & even let you make up the quizzes and exams, trust me take him!
I like this professor so much when I had him on from BSC2085 lecture had to take him for another class. He is a great prof. that goes over exactly what you need to know for the exams on the labs, one of the very few prof. that actually utilizes the models in class & in the exams, truly learned a lot in this class. Will always take him if possible
I took this class for the spring semester He has a very heavy cuban accent. He tries to help his students. If you pass the final he pushes you one grade up. I had a D in the class and I pass the finals I got a C for final grade. he gives powerpoint and study guide but the study guides doesnt help at all. Nothing on the study guides are on the te
I loved taking BSC2085 with this professor, its true he has a heavy Cuban accent but he helps you a lot with reviews for the test and explains very well the lectures . I'm taking him again this semester. He doesn't make the lecture hard you have to study if you want to pass
He's a pretty good teacher Anatomy itself can be a bit challenging but thankfully he didn't make it too hard. When it comes to tests he gives you the list of things to expect for the test so you know what to study for and he allows Make Ups for test, quizzes, and homework. There is also a group project which is NOT HARD AT ALL. Would recommend him!
I would not recommend him. He does not give any clues as to what will be on the test. He Is very difficult to understand. And does not care if you do not know the material. This is my last class of my associates degree and It has been by far the worst due to this teacher only because the subject is so interesting.
I adore professor Bidot, yes the class is not easy, he does not give free grades out and if you want an A then you are going to have to work hard for it. But overall he is an amazing professor and EXTREMELY knowledgeable. One thing is for sure, you will learn in the class and if you like learning then this is the class for you.
I recommended taking this class with another professor. Nice teacher but heavy accent, he makes the exams really hard. Made it impossible to get an A. 5 tests, 5 quizzes, 5 homework's, 1 research paper. Last exam is Comprehensive. He does give extra credit on each test which is a plus and he does give a study guide. But again like I said its hard
I would not recommend this teacher. If you can take this class else where or with another professor than go ahead. There are 5 tests, he drops lowest grade, 5 quizzes, 1 research paper,& 5HW The Good: The good thing is that he does give extra credit on each exam. The Bad: You have to bust your but to get an A he makes the exams really hard!!!
Amazing professor. He cares and is knowledgeable in the subject. BSC 2085 is hard no matter who is the professor. In my opinion, if the student expect to get an easy A. Then good luck finding one. With this class you need to study and make effort. If this is done, then you will pass this class; I did, and with an A!
BSC 2085 was a hard class because of the content and the amount of information, not because of the professor. I think if you expect to get and easy A without putting the effort then do not expect to get an A. He knows his material and cares for his students to do well. You just have to make the effort and study!!
Dr Bidot is the best! Great professor and human being. His classes are very interesting. He is extremely intelligent and has many decades of experience as a Dr. I took Dr Bidot for BSC2085 and BSC2086. I got A on both! The subject is difficult but not impossible. Some lazy students blame the professor for their lack of commitment to the class.
Awesome professor! Just study and you will pass with A.
Knows his anatomy, he is a Doctor. Will help you if he sees that you try. He wants you to pass. You will learn. Not for lazy people. He is one of the best professors I have had in my college experience. Gives test reviews and all his power points! He is AMAZING take him
He's a wonderful professor and are available to his students. If you do your part by reading and following his lectures you'll pass your tests. I needed help understanding a topic he taught in class, he responded immediately with a well written response! Don't miss out. Took him for 2 semesters, earned A's both times. He knows his subject well!
Lectures are long and boring but the man knows his stuff. He does give study guides that help a lot but you definitely need to study. There is some homework but that's easy and expect to do a group presentation project at the end of the course. Read the book and go over his PPTs and you'll be fine. Try not to be late to his class.
Anatomy is hard either way you put it. But I highly recommend to take it with him. He is a great professor and really knows his stuff. I took him for summer. He informs you regularly how you are doing. He is funny and will make it easy for you to remember certain things! Gooo for him :)
He's mediocre at best. He reads off a powerpoint, and the powerpoints he reads off of in class are different from the ones he gives you on his website. His lectures are boring to say the least. You're basically teaching yourself the entire semester. He's funny, but funny doesn't help you learn.
I'm a former University of Miami lecturer and decided to take this course in order to expand my studies in the sciences. In all my years working in academia, I can honestly say he is probably the best professor I've ever had! His teaching style is professional and the curriculum is structured in a way that if you study hard, you can get an A!!
Anatomy is a difficult subject, so if you expect to get an A without making any efforts you will probably do as bad as the people on here with the hate comments. Yes, you have to study, but this professor loves this subject and he makes sure we love it too; so read the PPT, pay attention, always he is able to help don't regret and take this class.
Great professor, Anatomy is hard anyways but he makes it a little bit more interesting and kind of fun. Really enjoyed his class, well prepared and really know his stuff.
Anatomy is not an easy class, but Professor Bidot lectures and explanations were clear, he explains in a way that makes it easy to understand, always provides real life examples, he's very dynamic and funny, study the power point presentations, do extra credit homework, read topics in the book related to study guide and pass with an A.
I took both BSC2085 & BSC2086 with Professor Bidot! and I'd take him again if he taught another subject! He's a very knowledgeable and experienced professor, understanding, caring, and with a good sense of humor. He wants you to learn and pass. His lectures are clear, attend to class, do homework, study power point study guide with book, You pass!
I took anatomy classes with Dr. Bitot and it was very wonderful moments. If you have a chance to take this professor, take Him. You will pass with an A +. He gives many opportunities to boost your grade, and he covers it a lot in the end of the semester. Take him!
Dr. Bidot is beyond amazing professor ! He is very helpful! He makes you feel like family. Give great reviews before exam. And also give extra credit for easy homework. Do not miss class, and you will pass. 4 exams, and he will drop the lowest grade. One a presentation in group in the end of the semester for more extra points. I finished with A.
He is great,if you enjoy learning he truly open your eyes ! He makes you think, but not suffer. I will definitively take him again . Offer extra credit, do the homework, follow his ptts, show up for class, and you are done. No stress
This professor is awesome! He knows what he is teaching. His classes are not bored. He gaves 6 quizzes,5 exams and 1 final, he drops the lower grade. He send a study guide for each test, and yessss! you have to study harder, but if you do it, you will finish with A or B
This is the 2nd time I have taken professor Bidot, and I am taking him again this coming semester. He is a wonderful teacher, truly cares about whether you understand, and has a fair grading policy -- 6 quizzes, 5 exams, & 1 final test, plus homework (extra credit) that is really easy and it's there to help your grade. Take him! You won't regret it
Dr. Bidot is one of the best, smartest, nicest, clearest and friendliest anatomy professor at MDC. He is ALWAYS willing to help you if he sees you putting a considerable amount of effort in his class. Negative reviews must come from truly lazy students that doesn't take the time to do the work.. Although it's not easy, he makes it enjoyable! :)
I appreciated Prof Bidot's grading system. You have 5 quizzes,5 tests & 1 final +group project. He will drop your worst quiz & test to help your grade if you are struggling. Do your best from the beginning so you dont have to worry about taking the final!! Those whining b/c they want to be spoon fed need a reality check. This is college!
Good professor. Nice guy
Best Professor Ever! Anatomy is such a hard and boring class, but not with Professor Bidot! Class is always interesting and he keeps you awake with his funny jokes!
Study power points go in deep with the book, do homework that's helpful for quiz review and extra credit at the end, you'll pass! Class is not boring at all, with professor Bidot was always clear and fun!
AMAZING. I'm taking him now and he's just super caring for his students. He really tries to teach you and is funny sometimes, which helps to make anatomy fun. Tests and quizzes are EASY (if you study and READ). Drops one quiz and one test. Take him, you won't regret it, just make sure to get involved in the class and ask questions, he'll explain.
best anatomy professor!! would recommend him!
Great Professor and makes lectures fun! If you're taking Anatomy & Physiology1 he drops one test and one quiz so if you go to class plus read the book you'll do fine. Keep in mind that the last chapters are the hardest, so make sure you get off to a good start. Highly recommend his class!
If you take this class you're going to have to learn everything on your own. The power points he goes over in class are different than the ones on his website and only about 10% of what he teaches in class is on the test. Even his study guides don't go over the same stuff from the tests. You'll be blind sided every test.
Professor Bidot is funny and knows his subject well. Interesting class all semester, some chapters were boring but that was anatomy. Has 5 exams and a final to help people who are struggling. Would take again!
Anatomy is tough. But Professor Bidot makes it a breeze. If you read negative comments about him they are untrue, those students either didn't bother studying or paying attention. You have 5 tests and a final. If you get an A in class he dosent make you take the final. He's super nice and caring. If you try you will get an A no doubt. Take him!
Its a joke how high this guy is ranked, he is decent at best. For his lectures he reads off the slideshows and doesn't even go over info he puts on the test. His study guides are nothing like the test & he makes the tests way harder than it needs to be. Do yourself a favor and find another professor who doesn't make it harder than it already is.
He drops your lowest test & quiz grade so that always helps. If you have an A in the class by the end of the semester you don't have to take the final. His lectures are based off of his powerpoints which he reads word from word. You'll have to go back and teach yourself the details because his tests are so specific if you don't you will fail.
Professor Bidot gives 5 test and drops the lowest one and 5 quizzes and dropest the lowest one. He reads off the power points, but he is flexible if you wish to talk to him, and is open to any questions you may have. He is not an easy A but if you put in the time and effort you should be fine. He makes a lot of jokes. Overall he is a good prof.
I enjoy having him for a class, hes really nice and understand once he sees youre trying hard. A lot of reading of the power points he gives but you dont need the textbook. Theres 5 quizzes and 5 tests. He drops your lowest quiz and test grade. As long as you do your part, you study a lot and does everything he tells you, you will get a A.
Bidot is a nice guy who wants to see his students do well. His tests are pretty hard but if you study you will do fine. He uploads all his lectures online. He gives easy HW to help out your grade. His study guides are nothing like the test so don't rely on them to study. The textbook isn't mandatory but it is really helpful.
Very difficult tests you need to study everything dont go by his study guides good luck
Professor Bidot is good. He gives a lot of extra credit, drops the lowest quiz, lowest exam, and it gives you a third chance at the final to receive a better grade! Regarding his teaching methodology, he explains everything well, the only bad thing is that he tries to cover a lot of material for one exam and you get super overload. No need for Book
He makes his class fun and always has a joke up his sleeve but his tests are very difficult .If you take his class you need to study at least 3 hours on a daily basis otherwise you wil fail every test .Dont go by his study guides and good luck
If you read the text book and his PowerPoint detail and what he points to be very important you will pass.
I hope this is the right professor I'm writing this review for because I don't know how he has so many good reviews. His accent is heavy (not a huge deal) but when you don't understand something and ask for help he gives you an attitude. He expects you to remember EVERY single thing from AP 1. His attitude affects my learning. Just don't take him.
Professor Bidot was amazing, he truly cares for his students, he wants everyone to succeed & learn. He gives you many chances to improve your overall grade. If you think its a lot of reading, then maybe you should change your major. Nothing good will come easy, you gotta want it. Hes funny & shows that hes passion about his career. Blessing
Good professor. You have to study a lot in order to do good. He explains things in detail which can help for the lecture class. Solid choice just get ready to study a lot.
Professor Bidot is great. He is very considerate and he cares about his students. The chapters are way too long because it covers a lot of materials. If you want to pass his class you need to study, but besides that he is perfect. One final group project at the end, and he drops your lowest score. Final is optional if you need a better grade.
he is an amazing person in and out of class. he is willing to help students before classes on tough topics. would def recommend ! super glad I took this class
ENROLL!! Most caring professor I've ever had hands down. 5 tests and quizzes, drops lowest test AND quiz Final is optional if u have an A Simple group project, u can do it in a day Homework is extra credit for tests, DO IT There is a lot to learn but he makes class awesome, trust me. DO WELL ON TEST 1 bc he'll like u and help u on other tests.
Too many tests, does not explain enough, just read the PowerPoint and it is not enough to pass the tests, if you do not have anatomical knowledge, do not take this class. If you are going to take this class you have to be prepared to study at least 3 hours a day. Good luck!
Wasn't impressed at all with Prof Bidot this semester. Going to class was pointless unless it was for a quiz or test. All he does is read off of the ppt slides the entire class. He assigns this heavy group project that's only worth 5 points... 5 POINTS !!! I tell you. He's extremely rude when you ask him questions about your progress in the class.
I really enjoyed the class. Its not very often that an instructor can make a subject come alive the way he does. He is an older instructor but you often forget this when you hear him explaining concepts with passion or curiosity. This made it much easier to get through some of the more boring chapters. You can tell he cares about students education
5 tests plus a final; drops lowest test. 6 quizzes; drops lowest. homework is extra credit, 6 page research paper, attendance counts. He may be an MD but he does not know how to teach, reads off PowerPoint. Gets defensive if you question him. Says tests are based off PowerPoint but thats a lie, you need to read the chapters in order to do well.
Awful. No real teaching, just glosses over the material so you have to teach urself with the book. Unorganized. Accent gets in the way of understanding terminology, often pronounces the names wrong, which causes confusion. 5 tests & final, 6 quizzes, research paper. No point to attend class other than to get credit. I regret taking him 100%
I love Professor Bidot! Honestly, this is an Anatomy class and is not supposed to be easy. You are required to study and if you dont you probably wont do well, but that goes with just about any other class. Professor Bidot is really funny and makes the lectures interesting, I was able to remember a lot of the terminology because of his jokes.
Good/funny professor! Hes passionate about his students and anatomy. He is very straight forward. Reads from PowerPoint. Everything in PowerPoint will be on quiz and test. 5 quiz 5 test 1 group project. You have to work for it. Dont take him if youre sensitive!
Easy A if ur already in medical field. MUST read book to grasp information well enough to do well in tests, powerpoints are NOT enough. His lectures are boring , not "funny" & he doesn't delve into the material. Asking for clarification was useless. Gives plenty of opportunities cause it would be impossible to pass otherwise. HW is NOT extra credit
I'm really surprised at the good reviews for him. I consider myself a really serious student, who puts in the time and I found the class unnecessarily hard. I have several friends that took A&P with other professors and they didn't struggle as much because their professors actually taught the material and paced it out. Very disappointed.
Do Not take him. He does not teach , do your self a favor and find someone else!!!
Great professor! Anatomy is hard but he make this class easy. He is inspirational and support his students with his PPPs and study guides. But of course you have to study
This professor is excellent, his grading method allow you to improved your grade although you didn't start with good grade in your first test. He give study guides and his Power points presentations, that help a lot. Quiz before each regular test but this help you to be prepare for the tests. Take care of his students, and is inspirational.
Professor Bidot is amazing! He cares about the students and what you are learning, he also uses little anecdotes that make you remember the material. He gives HW for extra credit to help you with exams, but don't miss class because he tells you during lecture what the different extra credits will be.
Tests are solely based on power points - no need for the textbook. His lectures are interesting b/c he is a funny man. If you don't pass, this class its b/c you didn't care to learn the material on the power points he provides. A few tests, hw (xtra credit) and a group project (really easy). I did the bare minimum & got an A - just do your part.
He's on my top worst professors list. He yells at you in class and is very disrespectful in general. He is constantly raising his voice and he really doesn't know what he is talking about. Tough grader but if he likes you then you'll do ok. You never really know where you stand in lab. Very unorganized. I'd never ever take a class with this guy.
Highly recommend Dr. Bidot. Hes a very kind professor with many years of experience in the field and classroom. His labs are entertaining. Hes very caring. Great teacher. He takes good notes on the board so take pictures of that and all the body part models because those will be on the practicums. Participate in class. Multiple quizzes in class.
Professor Bidot is very concern about our learning process, he is always willing to help us if we have any question, always motivates us to participate in class. He uses learning strategies to keep us alert in class, he also has a good sense of humor. I would really take him for my next class.
He's a great professor. If you pay attention and interactive with the class you will pass
I loved having Professor Bidot for my lab. He is a very good teacher that actually cares for his students. Tests were always based on PowerPoints so no need for extra studying. Also he is funny which can make the class more enjoyable. If you pay attention, you will excel for sure. I learned so much from this lab and I would take it again.
At first, Bidot can come off as harsh, but you quickly learn that he will only get on your case if you repeatedly show lack of interest. I took his lab and learned more in his lab than I did in lecture w/a different professor. He makes corny jokes throughout to help you remember the material, and he starts each class with a summary on the board.
I wish all my sciences were with him! I truly appreciate a Professor who genuinely wants to see you succeed. Read the material before coming to class so that you use the class as a review. He's so funny and gives you opportunities to earn a high grade! I had him for Lab 2086 as well and also got an A. Hands down the best AP prof.
I don't recommend him at all. He just read the PowerPoint presentations, and sometimes he didn't bother to finish explaining the material for a text. Every time I tried to contact him it would take me days before he responded back and by then I didn't need it the information.
Prof. Bidot is AMAZING! He goes very far to help you pass and is very lenient with due dates. He doesnt give many assignments so you wont hate the class and his lectures are very helpful.
Lock down browser , easy hw assignments , test and quizzes based of powerpoints no going back on previous question - if there is a 11 question test you only get 15 mins to take the test.
HW for each chapter with drawing & labeling. Test & quizzes based of PowerPoints with Lock down browser & are timed (15 Min) & are not allowed to go back on previous question. The Test/Quiz that are 11 questions includes 1 xtra credit question. Reviews quizzes and practicums so if your paying attention you will know what's on the exams. Considerate
Professor Bidot is a good professor given that you take him in person, I had him for the lab and he was a good teacher. he relies a lot on class participation so be ready to answer questions. there is three practicums and the rest is just homework and quizzes on Pearson. if you attend class and pay attention you will pass the class
Honestly I wouldn't recommend at all. He reads straight off the powerpoint which for me doesn't help me learn what so ever. He also is constantly changing the dates for tests and quizzes so you're pretty much just confused the whole time. Don't even bother emailing him because he will not respond to you until like 3 or 4 days after.
He was great teacher, all you need to do is listen and study.
Overall the class was okay, i took a mini term so it was a lot of info in a short time, he knows what he's teaching but he reads the power point, every class we had a quiz of 10 or more question about what we were learning. so yes if you don't do good in those quizzes you will fail because there is no final. A lot of info hard class,but he was nice
Amazing professor; knowledgeable, caring, and helpful. He has a clear grading criteria so know what to expect. However, this class is not easy, so it does not matter the professor you take; you will need to study to get an A. If you pay attention to his lecture you'll be fine
Very sweet, funny, cuban man who listened when we said we were struggling. He rearranged some things to try and help us on the quizzes and tests. As long as you keep up with your assignments, you will be fine.
He is very rude, when you ask for help he never helps you .When you have issues with the computer he tells you to figure it out. Gives you a little bit of time for test and quizzes.Professor has a very heavy accent.
He uses picture labels on the test from another source instead of the picture labels on the homework that take hours to complete which is really frustrating because you have to complete those homework and study those from the textbook and then study from another source in order to get a good grade on the test. He is very educated on this topic.
Professor Bidot is a funny, caring Cuban who makes the class enjoyable. Readings and quizzes are key, but Unstuck study was a lifesaver for my study prep.
This professor is respectful but extremely awful. He gives you a quiz at the beginning of every class and it's mostly based on his powerpoints, the ebook, and the homework assignments. Most of the questions on his quizzes are labeling or naming a structure. Also, be very careful as some of his quizzes are only 3 questions. Wouldn't recommend him.
I absolutely love bidot. I took him for BSC 2085 & BSC 2086. In 2085 I missed 3 quizes and he let me make them up. He always lets students make up the quizzes he also doesnt grade the hw by grade but by completion. I honestly enjoyed having him as a professor.
Professor Bidot is very sweet and truly has a passion for what he teaches. If you miss one or more of his quizzes, he allows you to make them up which is a plus for students. I will say that his quizzes can be challenging because almost all of the questions are asking to identify parts of a model image so I would study from the Pearson study area.
This professor makes the class really tough because he doesn't provide any study materials, no PowerPoints, no study guides, nothing. The quizzes and homework are quite hard, and he doesn't give any feedback on what you get wrong. I wouldn't recommend him at all.
I don't like this professor at all, he doesn't give any study materials whatsoever, the quizzes and homework are very hard, and he reads off the slides, I wouldn't take him again, just awful.
He is very bad with Canvas and tech, it was very disorganized. Lets you make up quizzes and tests, but be ready to study the book and ppt. The homework is kinda tedious, but its alright. Only tests are proctored, quizzes aren't. If u have an A, you don't need to take final. There's a research paper you gotta do (in group if you want) thats ez.
Nice professor, The class can feel long and a bit boring, but he gives us time for Pearson homework, and weekly quizzes (done in class without Lockdown Browser) are manageable. I recommend studying using the homework since it helps a lot. There are 2 practicums total definitely doable if you stay consistent.
My mother had Professor Bidot as a professor many years ago. He is still just as passionate, it seems. While he is not the easiest to understand, he is very sympathetic and it shows. I would definitely take him again, even if anatomy was not at all my best subject.
Bros the Goat would absolutely take him again for labs I took the other class with someone else I got into a car accident and he was extremely understanding and helped me take the quizzes I missed
Do not recommend this professor at all. His lectures are boring, he reads directly from the slides. He assigned a research paper only worth 5 points and HWs worth 5 points. Exams about 40 questions each, content heavy. The only good part is that he gives study guides.
kind of a grumpy old man and is rude to a few students first thing in the morning for not being able to log into the test site on time or if they're on a question for too long. Tests are not proctored which is always nice, just do good on exams and do your hw on time and you'll be good.
