She is nice but a terrible professor. She says she takes questions right from her notes and what she says but that's not true. Study her notes not the textbook and know classes of drugs and SIDE EFFECTS!
Prof. Zarcone is amazing. She is no joke tho.She is hardcore.U absolutely MUST tape her class. She talks @ WARP speed-there is NO WAY that you are able to write down everything that she is saying.U absolutely MUST know your therapeutic levels,side effects, what 2 test 4, etc. Talk 2 her if u are having a problem though. She'll help u if u need it.
She makes the class interesting. She is very friendly and helpful, but not a pushover either. I would take another class of hers if there is a need for my requirements. I truly appreciate her teaching style and it promotes and good learning environment. With all due respect, she is cute and attractive.
she talks at lighting speed, so I would definitely record her and study the drugs everyday don't wait until the last minute to study because its way too much info and your barely pass. the tests are really difficult and you need to know everything about each drug
2 exams a final & pamphlet. Memorize everything in slides, read textbook to understand classes. Pamphlet and ati are given grade boosters. If you mess up on exam 1 or 2, don't be hard on self, go and review them in very much detail, they will be on final!
Zarcone is a good professor. She is very smart and knows her stuff, especially cardiac meds. There are only two tests and a final. Her exams are very straight forward and pretty simple if you know her notes, she doesn't throw any curveballs at all. Yes she talks fast, but when she stays on a topic for more than a minute or two, know it!
She's a great teacher and at the end of class does a little review of everything. She is very straight forward and cares about her students. She's awesome and post the test grades right away. I would definitely recommond her. Read her PowerPoints study a little bit every every night and you'll do fine.
Dr. Zarcone is an amazing professor! She is such an intelligent woman! Only 2 tests, the final and a group project. Do not try and study the night before, there are too many meds to know. Her exams are straight forward, all you have to do is put the work into it. She truly cares about her students and I wish I could have her again!!!!!!
After taking her I feel like I know drugs like the back of my hand. There's only 2 tests so study hard for both of them since theres a lot of material for each but the tests are straight forward if you study hard enough. Know your side effects, adverse, MOA, and ranges! Just go by her slides, RECORD HER!! Ati homework grades and project ar boosters
This professor is extremely brilliant! She does not throw any curveballs at you she tells you exactly what is on the test but definitely take her advice on how to prepare for them. Since taking this class I feel like I 100% know the material and I'm prepared for med-surg 2.
You have to have to have to study like 2 weeks in advance for tests. Her lectures are amazing, and there's only 2 tests. You have to know your side effects. I feel like I know my drugs more than ever.
Dr. Zarcone is amazing! Pharm II is not an easy course, but she explains subject matter VERY well to make it understandable and easy. Love her, definitely take!
Take it from someone that has taken many different professors before. You will NOT regret taking her! She teaches her students to know the information and not only to pass the test. She is absolutely amazing! Her power points are great, and great way to study. Take her, you will not regret it!
My favorite professor at Molloy! Unlike some nursing professors here, she is actually competent and teachers her students. I feel like I have learned so much from her. Her lectures and powerpoints are detailed and well-written. She gives you everything you need to know! I took her for pharm 1, as well and she makes me which there was a pharm 3!!!
Great Professor! Take her if you can. She's VERY fair. You WILL learn a lot. If you study beforehand you can easily get an A. There's ALOT of drugs so if you don't study before hand you won't pass. She tells you what you need to know about the drugs. Her lectures are amazing. I would take her again.
Patho is a tough class. A lot of material to learn in a short amount of time. Professor Zarcone is a fair grader, very approachable & is straight forward. I like how she breaks everything down for you to understand more clearly. She will go over things again if it's not clear enough for you. 3 exams, a paper & the final. Study hard. Don't slack!
Dr. Zarcone is very knowledgeable and caring. Her tests are straight forward from the PowerPoint. But it is so important to STUDY EARLY for her exams since it is a lot of material. Studying last minute wont work at all. So start early and she is willing to help. Very approachable too.
Prof Zarcone is the best nursing professor I have taken. She makes you really understand what you are learning. Sometimes it might be overwhelming to listen for 3ish hrs but usually she will let you out a little early. Tests are fair as long as you study a little bit starting 2 weeks before exams. Presentation is an easy grade booster
Prof. Zarcone is great with pharm, okay with patho. Her slides are not as good as her pharm pwrpoints, and has a habit of telling you that your test will be split equally, but she actually means 10 questions on 1 chapter and 90 on the other chapter. She decided to completely screw over the class for the final by doing so. Take her, but study it all
She is an amazing professor. Her teaching methods are superb, makes it easy to understand. Her exams are very hard. But what nursing classes are not hard.
Dr. Zarcone is one of the most amazing professors at Molloy. She is personable and well-liked by a ton of students. Patho has a TON of info, and she keeps lecture interesting/fun. As long as you prepare ahead & know everything for the exams, you will be fine! Just make sure you study it all- what she says to focus on isn't always the case!
Zarcone is one of the best professors I've had. I had the gift of having her for pharm 1 and patho... and i have her again for pharm 2! The class is a hard class in general, but she gives you all the material you need. Work hard and she'll give it back to you. Her power points are almost verbatim on the test.
She is the absolute best. There was so many medications to memorize and she worked with the class to make sure they understand everything. She does talk a little fast so definitely record her lectures and then re listen to them for the exams. I really wish there was more professors like her! She is so straightforward and cares about her students!
Dr Zarcone breaks down complex topics so that its easy to understand since this is your first year of nursing classes. Her tests are straight off her power points. Index cards are your best friend to succeed in this class. Its a lot of information, but welcome to nursing school.
Love love love Prof. Zarcone! Hands down one of my top favorites, sadly I won't be able to take her again unless I go to grad school since she teaches up to 259. Take her, you won't regret it. Super funny, super smart, and just an amazing prof over all. Study straight from her slides and go to lecture to understand it all. Fair grader, take her!
She's ok
Shes the best! You must go to class to pass the class. Only 2 test so study hard for both
I would have loved professor Zarcone if it wasn't for the final. I work hard for the grades I get rarely ever complaining about the difficulty of a test but her final is just unfair. There is no point of studying if it isn't even her final that she uses. You HAVE TO do good on the tests in order to pass because if you rely on the final, good luck.
Awesome teacher! Explains everything very clearly. Study from her slides and you will do well! Does not try to trick you at all. Tests are pretty straight forward. If you go to class and pay attention, you will do well. Group project & ATI assignments for easy points. So happy I had her!
Tests are very fair. Recording and listening to her lecture helped A LOT
Such a kind and strong woman. Always more than willing to further explain any questions but she is tough. Her exams are difficult but recording the lectures helps because she does try to emphasize the most important things to know. Moves very fast but I'm sure they all do based on how much content is taught.
Pathophysiology is not an easy class, but Dr. Zarcone makes it enjoyable. She always gives her students benefit of the doubt and curves the tests as well. She is friendly, respectable, and always has the best interest of all her students at heart. Would definitely take her again!
Makes concepts easy to understand. She is very nice and caring to students. Will let you have a 10 minute break during lecture - because it is a lot of info. Lectures are amazing when it relates to stuff in work experience (cardiac) because she goes into a lot of depth. Very nice.
Zarcone is an amazing professor, she will explain a topic in every aspect to try and make students understand. She is motivating and really wants students to succeed. Test are very difficult but do-able you have to really work for your grade. Group project is an easy A. Patho is not an easy class but if you pay attention you'll do fine.
She is wonderful. Patho is not an easy class, but she makes it understandable, fun, and interesting. She can go a bit fast, but always checks to make sure everyone understands. Her tests can be a little challenging but everything is straight from her lecture. Record and take good notes on her powerpoints and study hard, you will do fine!
Prof. Zarcone is a really sweet professor who always has the best interest of her students in mind. Her final isnt that hard and theres 3 tests, and a group project to also help boost up your grade. Shes so friendly and makes patho enjoyable!
Absolutely love Zarcone. Literally the best pharm professor ever. All the other prof either don't cover the entire course or teach unwanted materials. Zarcone focuses only on the things you need and the only professor that actually gives feedback on the exams we take and we go over. Tests are based on ppts and doesn't try to screw you over
I was really nervous for pharm but she's the best professor for it. She focuses on drugs but will leave time to review math and make sure everyone understands it. Taking her again for pharm 2.
Professor Zarcone is a great professor in terms of explaining and challenging you. In any nursing class from this semester on, you have to really study. If you want a professor that actually explains in detail the way things work and relates them to pharm and 209 take her. She is a very sweet woman, tests are fair and project helps boost your grade
A great professor, there is little to no textbook use required. However be warned the lecture is heavy, its a lot of information condensed but the PowerPoints are exactly whats on the exams.
Dr. Zarcone gives you everything you need to succeed in this class. Its Pharm 2, so it's triple the meds from pharm 1 but just stay on top of it. Time management is super important because of all the other classes juggling at the same time, but study a little each night and you'll do fine.
The BEST professor I have ever taken at Molloy. This gem of a woman makes pharmacology interesting and shes a phenomenal teacher. Everything you need to know is straight from the powerpoints. She genuinely makes an effort to learn every students name in her class as well. I wish she taught more courses!
Had her for both 229 and 239. She is the best teacher that you could possible get for both of these classes. Both of these classes are VERY challenging but she breaks it down the best out of all the professors. If you have the chance to take her, TAKE HER! You wont regret it! This is the hardest semester at Molloy, so make it a little easier.
She's a good professor but not for my personal choice of learning, if your looking for a hand hold through the class don't because you still have to put in the time to study. You will have to go back and make sure you understand everything on her slides.
Dr Zarcone is someone I aspire to be. She is a phenomenal professor and explains things in a way where you're have a better understanding. She genuinely cares for her students and wants them to succeed, and most importantly she loves what she does. I'm looking forward to taking her for Pharm 1.
She is absolutely amazing! You will work for your grade but when you get out of the class you will be prepared for the next semester. Her exams are not easy but the group project is an easy grade booster worth 15%. Ask questions and watch videos after lecture to supplement the information she teaches.
This teacher made a hard semester easy to bear. Pathophysiology is supposed to be a hard class but she broke it down very well and explained everything to know for the tests and finals. She even gave us a group project that everyone received a high grade for if they did what they were supposed to do. This teacher is amazing! TAKE HER!
I took Zarcone after failing pharm one. I took her for both Pharm one and two and she made the material very understandable. She explains everything thoroughly and always asks if anyone needs clarification. She will throw around a ball and ask questions about prior weeks so make sure you study from week to week. Great professor 100% would reccomend
Dr. Zarcone is very understanding and sweet. She wants her students to do well. You really have to study and put in work though. Everything comes from her powerpoint so she's not trying to trick anyone, but there is a lot of material. Study and you'll be fine!
Good teacher for patho, just listen to what she says and study her powerpoints and you will do great! Her test are reasonable as long as you study and ask questions! Taking her again for pharm 2!
No funny business on exams. Read/Study Pass. Tell her you do not understand, she will make sure you get it & explain it 20 different ways. Yes, she is a sweetheart, but this is Patho & you have to work for it. I listened to her panaptos once a week with my notes & did really well on exams. 1 group project which was the worse because lazyness.
I've heard great things about this professor and I'm very disappointed with her online transition. Teaching Pharm 2 was not a priority for her. All we did was listen to the panopto and during lecture she would just say exactly what was on the panopto. If you are not an aduitory learner avoid. We also had a group progect... during online learning...
She is a vey nice professor. However, my only criticism is that she can make lecture really boring! We have to listen to her panaptos each week prior to class, and It can get very tiresome! She just reiterates what was said in her panaptos during class. Tests were very challenging but if you study and critically think, you'll be okay.
She is amazing. I honestly never thought exams were challenging. I always got in the 90s and one time I got in the 80s and I take responsibility for that. Her exams are right from the powerpoints and panoptos. I really feel like I left this class knowing a lot of patho. Love her!!! Taking her for pharm 2!!!! Also really cares about you doing well.
Very caring and approachable. Tests are very fair. Tons of information she breaks down super well. Do not wait until last minute to study, Patho is tons of information and can get extremely overwhelming. Must study to pass. Not many grades make up the final grade so you need to do well on each test. Group project is interesting and not overly hard.
A kind professor who is knowledgeable and won't stop explaining something until you understand it. Patho is a very difficult class however, and she posts the panoptos you must watch before coming to class. The best way to utilize lecture time is by bringing questions, otherwise it's useless. A lot of content so study study study, It's a hard class!
Lots to memorize so dont procrastinate. She never curves tests so no use asking. But her project is 15% of the grade and she gives 100s so that is a boost. Get ready to read! But u CAN do this!
Great Professor. She post her lectures along with PowerPointa and a study guide. 3 exams and final. The exams are straight forward. A group project. She is not bad at all compared to what's out there at Molloy. You have to study.
Took her for patho & pharm 2. She is amazing. She sticks to exactly what you need to know and emphasizes the important things. Her PowerPoints & lectures include everything you need to know. The textbook is only good for practice questions. She's so nice and understands how stressed we are. You MUST study HARD as exams include everything!!!
Had her for Patho and Pharm. I'm glad I was able to take her this semester for Pharm 2. She made studying for her exams very easy and stress-free. I did a lot better this semester in Pharm 2 than in Pharm 1 and that is because I was lucky enough to have her as my professor! Amazing choice! Highly recommend. However, STUDY! ALOT of MEDICATIONS!!!!
Really enjoyed her class. She gave you everything you needed in order to pass the class. We had several ATIs and a group project, which can help boost your grade. Get ready to put in the work bc you are going to have to pull material from Pharm I
Had her for patho & pharm II. I love her! Her lectures are extremely organized and easy to follow. She tells you exactly what you need to know for the exams by emphasizing the important information! Exams are extremely fair if you just follow her lecture and PowerPoints. Never opened the textbook once. She is so sweet and really wants u to do well
Zarcone is a sweet woman and cares about her students. Although if you take her remotely, it's primarily self-teaching. You watch panopto recordings prior to class, learn the material, and briefly review in class meetings. Her tests are VERY straightforward and she only asks key takeaways of drug classes. If you put the work in, it's an easy A.
Definitely one of my top 5 BEST nursing professors at Molloy. She is caring and soo sweet to her students. Pharm 2 is a lot harder than Pharm 1 being that you will be required to know ALOT more medications, especially for the Content Mastery. She made Pharm 2 Doable, but you have to put in the work to succeed. Wish I can take her for everything els
Honestly do not even need the textbook. Just read her lectures and panptos and maybe ATI. I definitely would have gotten a higher grade if I studied more, but even not studying I was able to do well. She is so sweet and an amazing professor, took her for patho and pharm. It would be impossible to fail her class!
a fantastic professor who cares and knows how tough this semester is for nursing students. she breaks down all the diseases and explains what you need to know. tests are pretty straight forward but require you to think. never used the textbook but study her powerpoints. Qs come direct from there. she goes back over the test and gives points back
Dr. Zarcone is one of the best professors Ive met at Molloy. Not only is she super sweet, she makes it evident that she cares (which is really rare now-a-days). She provides good feedback and breaks down a hard topic to try to make it as easiest as possible. Anyone is lucky to have her as a professor, so take her because she fills quick!
One of the best professors I ever had at Molloy!! Please use this advice if taking her for patho STUDY THE SLIDES AND YOU WILL PASS!! Breaks down lectures to understand lecture material. Watch her panaptos too if you need to listen to her lectures again!
Dr. Zarcone is great and truly wants her students to succeed. Pay attention in lecture and watch her panaptos and you will do great!
Dr. Zarcone is a great choice for pathophysiology. She posts recordings for each lecture which are great study tools. The lectures are boring and long but I can't blame her for that because she always tried her best to keep us interested and gave us frequent breaks. The tests definitely weren't easy but she always made sure we were prepared.
Professor Zarcone was amazing! Day 1 she tells you not to get the textbook. If you study her slides, pay attention to her lectures, and take notes you'll be fine! There's one group presentation but she basically hands out free 100s.
GREAT professor. If you see Zarcone has an opening, TAKE HER!!!! You will never regret it. She is just the sweetest, she wants everyone to succeed and helps break down hard concepts into simple everyday language and understanding! She's so so nice. Makes class fun, tells stories, does games to test us. She's great and how all professors should be
TAKE THIS TEACHER. Professor Zarcone is an amazing teacher! you will NOT need the textbook. Her powerpoints are helpful but you also must take notes in class. There's an easy 100 group project which is 15%. Each test is 20% do not slack off!!! The only bad thing is there are no assignments besides the project that can up your grade a little.
Dr. Zarcone is a real sweetheart- but the course material is pretty heavy. The three hour lecture can get droning, but she does her best to make sure everyone stays engaged. Her tests are straightforward mainly- but definitely require studying! Manageable if you know the information she goes over. Gives a group presentation that's an easy 100
I one of the main reasons I didnt enjoy taking this class is bc of the trouble in getting her to respond to your emails. The tests was from the slides but she never gave you any help review or suggestions how to best prepare for the tests! Also lectures were boring and straight from the slides. Felt like a waste just going for lectures!
Love her!! Exams are VERY straightforward if you study directly from the ppt. It is a lot of material so study early and don't fall behind. Personally, quizlets helped the most, or retype the ppt. She gives a big grade booster with the project. She is so nice but not very accessible outside class /: Very knowledgeable professor. 100% take again!
Please just avoid her, if you can help it. She doesn't really care about her students. She comes, runs through the slides, and leaves. She doesn't meet one on one with you, she meets with you at the end of class at the front of the classroom. She doesn't even manually review her exams, she will probably owe you points on each exam.
Im taking Dr. Zarcone this semester and so far she is so awesome! I never rate professors but I had to. Shes awesome, shes funny, shes smart, her lectures are not boring, and to top it off, wow she is hot! Like super sexy hot! Im almost tempted to fail this class to take her again next semester ����
Her exams and quizzes are based on her slides but the slides are difficult to study. Feel like her notes are every where. Some are repetitive and some are not clear to follow. She makes you get the textbook and do quizzes that don't count toward your total grade.
Dr. Zarcone is beyond intelligent, and a great professor. Grading criteria is clear. Her Pharm II is lecture heavy and the material is difficult. Attendance is taken every class. It is IMPERATIVE you study early to keep up. No textbook, all the material is contained in PP Slides. Make flashcards and know interactions/nursing implications. Take her!
Professor Zarcone is so great! She is very smart and is great at conveying the information to her students. I did not purchase the Textbook for this course and just used her Panapto recordings to study and did very well. You definitely have to put in work because there is a lot of material but she is very understanding and such a great professor!
Dr. Zarcone is a great professor! She is very knowledgeable and passionate about pathophysiology. Her tests are extremely fair if you study her power points. Don't get the textbook, you won't need it for the tests at all. Only thing is she doesn't give "reviews" but she does give review worksheets that are helpful. I would definitely recommend
Professor Zarcone is a great person she is kind and understanding. however, during her lectures she spoke REALLY fast it was like watching a lecture in 2x speed. For exams be prepared to memorize every little thing on her powerpoints because she does not give accurate study guides. however, she gives a group project which is a grade booster.
I had Zarcone for patho, and decided to take her for Pharm 2. It's overall a difficult course no matter who you take, so be prepared to study... a lot. Her tests are definitely fair, but not easy. She's a really sweet and funny lady, and very approachable. The class itself is just a lot to learn.
Dr. Zarcone was very caring in and out of the classroom. Lectures were very long and heavy. Adds a lot of extra information to powerpoints on topics we don't learn about till classes later on. Tests were extremely fair and directly from the slides. Group presentation at the end that helps your average a lot!
FANTASTIC! Lectures can be a little lengthy/intense and get a little dry, but she tries her best to make it palatable. Overall no complaints. GREAT PROFESSOR!
Professor Zarcone is so so sweet as a person, but I just did not do well with her as my teacher. I studied my butt off all the time and still could not do well on her exams. I felt that a lot of her questions were tricky and had 2 correct answers. She doesn't tell you whats on the tests, theres ATI's and group presentation that help your grade.
Her lectures are very fast paced but I honestly liked them. Pay attention to what she says in class, it'll help you with the tests. She also posts panoptos to help you review/study. Only thing I didn't like about her class is that she does NOT give out test review guides and expects you to know everything for every test. Besides that, she's great!
3 exams, 1 group project that boosts grade, & final. Coming in w/ a strong medical background, I did very well, but w/o one this class could be difficult. Lots of medical terminology that is like a new language if you don't know it. Great lecturer, but sometimes goes too fast; use her Panoptos in that case. Exams are straight from lectures/ppts.
I loves Professor Zarcone! She's genuinely so sweet and is very knowledgeable. She tells stories and makes analogies that are easier to understand. Her tests are fair and there's a group project which boosts your grade a lot. She also doesn't give review sheets which is my only thing, but otherwise she's wonderful! Shes also willing to review exams
Pharm 2 is a hard course so be prepared to study from day 1. No textbook is needed. All of the info needed is on Zarcone's slides and she posts panoptos so we can review it. She doesn't give review sheets so it is hard to figure out what exactly to study. She is easily accessible outside of class and is really nice. She wants us to succeed.
She's sweet and knowledgeable! She knows her stuff but goes way too fast! Tests are very lecture heavy and I felt like I had to study every little thing to do well but tests were fair. She will make sure you understand the material. No review sheets, everything is fair game! Easy group project to boost grade! Lots of material, study everyday!
Professor Zarcone is great, just be ready to study. When she tells you to study a week in advance, she means it. I took her for pathophysiology and pharm 2. My only complaint is she talks wayyyy too fast its hard to keep up sometimes. Overall I recommend her. Just really be ready to allocate time to study for her classes.
She is very thorough and quick. If you don't learn well with quick professors, you shouldn't take her. She is very quick and definitely knows what she is talking about. She posts the lectures online for you to review and rewatch which is very helpful. It is a lot of information but she tells you what you need to know for the exams.
Dr. Zarcone is the best pharm professor to have. She explains things very well for a really tough course. It's true what they say about studying every day, it's a lot of medications to memorize. Tests were usually fair and CAM project was a good grade booster as well as the ATI's. Definitely take her she makes lecture bearable!
I loved Zarcone! I also took her for patho and she was absolutely wonderful! Pharm 2 isn't nearly as easy as pharm 1 but she makes it manageable. She gives study tips and tells us stories related to medications which help so much. Only thing is that she doesn't give exam review so you have to study EVERYTHING but her tests are more than fair.
Class consists of 2 exams, ATI contest exam, a final, a group presentation, & few ATIs. Great, clear lectures that contain all the info needed for exams. Exams are more than fair and really focus on the important information for each drug - not random interactions or side effects. Class is scary bc 2 exams make up 25% of grade so constantly study
I have had Dr. Zarcone for two semesters. She is an amazing lecturer and professor! She gives you all the resources you need to succeed. Pharm is a difficult class, but she makes it more manageable. I wish she. Pay attention in class, use the panoptos to study, and ask questions if you are unsure! She wants you to succeed!!!
I LOVED Dr. Zarcone. I would take her again in an instant. She made learning pharm 2 (a very hard class) so much more manageable. She posted Panaptos to watch which were identical to her lectures, her exams are very cardio heavy but she is overall the best and I would love to have her again.
Zarcone made pharmacology as easy as she could make it. Her lectures laid out what would be expected for the exam. I would take her again if I could.
An AMAZING professor. Her lectures are clear, and are consistent with the panoptos she uploads. She does not give any test review, so there is a lot of studying to be done for exams. Exams are very fair if you take the time to learn the material. She is pretty fast paced, but always open for and encourages questions. I would take her again any day.
You will not get a review sheet, she will just tell you to make flashcards. She is extremely condescending always saying she's an NP. Exam questions are very difficult and use terms we do not know. you can study hard and get a 70. She teaches 3 different slide topics, but the 50-question tests are primarily 1 of those chapters. Don't recommend her.
STUDY! Zarcone is an amazing professor and teaches the content very well. She will tell you to study everyday and she is right about that. Her tests can get hyper-specific so study everything and she does not do test review. Patho is such an important class, I would really recommend her because she makes you actually LEARN and comprehend concepts.
Most god-awful teacher I had. I have a learning diability and totally felt unaccommodated by her. Her tests go way into detail on the slides. Her class will make you rip your hair out. It's so stressful part of my head is actually bald now just from stress, thanks for nothing Zarcone. News flash: can't study 3 weeks ahead with 5 other classes.
Patho is a really hard class and is graded by a few things. Don't buy the textbook all you need are her videos and slides. Exams were always fair. Lectures can get very boring but she will give breaks when they are needed. The group project is an easy 15% of the grade. Will be taking her again for Pharm 2
Dr. Zarcone is one of the best professors I have had at Molloy. She makes an extremely difficult class managable and learning over 200 medications simplified as much as possible. She doesn't give exam outlines but her tests are straight forward if you study her notes and panoptos. TAKE HER!!
Great professor, very intelligent and you will learn a lot. She is hard on u bc she wants u to be great nurses one day. Her class is hard, but you will learn a lot. Make sure to study a lot or u will not be able to keep up, it is a hard class, but she is one of the best professors i've had. her class is not an easy 100 u have to put in the work!
Overall, Zarcone is a good professor, who you learn a lot from. Lectures and tests were both very heavy. You need to study weeks in advance, and study every little detail on her slides. Powerpoint slides were helpful, but gives no review sheet/outline for exams and gives no extra credit. You only have the group project to help boost your grade.
Dr. Zarcone is not the type to cut material out or give you a test outline, NOR DOES SHE HAVE TO. Her lectures make something as dense as patho easy to understand, let alone that her tests are extremely fair. She is one of those professors I would take for everything if I could, she is amazing!
I personally love Zarcone, i think the people who rate her bad just don't like putting the work in to actually study. She is really engaging in class and always makes sure everyone understands a topic before moving on. I had her for patho and for pharm 2 now. The subjects are heavy, but if you manage right, you'll be good. Definitely recommend her.
She explains the topics well and helps you understand them, but you must study everything because she does not give a study guide. Use her panoptos while you are studying to help you refresh your memory. You have to study in advance if you want to do well.
Heavy lectures, Heavy testing but will learn a lot from her. her lectures are robust make sure you study every day a little to pass. 2 tests and a final.
The lecture moved a little fast but she has Panoptos lectures for every PowerPoint if you missed something. She makes things simple and guides you through grouping content so that you don't have to memorize so much. The main challenge for is needing to constantly study, the tests are straightforward and heavy on side and adverse effects
Zarcone was amazing! Even though she doesn't give reviews, her tests were fair if you studied. You need to pay attention to all the little details in her slides, but you also learn to recognize what she thinks is important. Posts panoptos with every powerpoint which help when studying. I wish I could take her again.
Dr. Zarcone is a great option for Pharm II. You truly learn a lot from her. Make sure to stay on top of your notes and study every day. Exams were fair.
Professor Zarcone is a really nice professor and cares about her students. The class is very test heavy, so it is important to study for her tests. There is a group project that will help boost your grade.
She's super great when it comes to explaining things, she wants you to pass but you have to put in the effort. She is also super down to earth and I love it, take her but be prepared to take notes and actively study to do well. If you do not do too well on exams, she makes time to review what you need help on. Super approachable as well!
If you have to take patho, take her, she is an amazing teacher, her class helps to set you up for success. As long as you pay attention and listen to her advice you will do good!
Professor Zarcone is one of the best! Lectures can be a lot, but she gives breaks every 50 mins so our brains can relax. Teaches topics very well and won't hesitate to answer any questions. Answers emails quick. Take notes and study the slides and you will do great! Just make sure to put in the work. TAKE HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dr. Zarcone is such a great professor! Patho is a lot of material, but she breaks it down in a way that can be easily understood. Her exams are very fair and if you take notes and listen you will do great!
Knows what she's talking about but wouldn't take again. Goes so fast through lectures. About 10 power points per test and no study guide so you study everything for a third to be on test. One group project. Not the worst option if you have to.
Honestly, she picks and chooses who she wants to succeed. No hw just 3 tests, the final, and group presentation. There is not enough studying in the world for her exams and she goes way too fast in lecture. Even if I got a 100 for her class I would still give her the same rating based off her teaching style and attitude with students.
Patho is definitely a hard class in terms of content however Prof Zarcone did a great job in explaining topics and really wanting you to understand and succeed. Tests are very fair, you need to put in the work and you will do good. Taking her again for pharm!!!
Zarcone is my absolute favorite professor - I have learned so much from her class. You have to study but just like any other nursing course. Genuinely love her and she is so intelligent. Her class was never boring and I always was so interested in her lectures!
Dr Zarcone is such an amazing professor! Patho is an extremely hard class but she breaks down the material in a very easy way and gives lots of examples and stories to help you remember. Her tests are extremely fair even though there is no review. As long as you study her ppts you will do well! Definitely recommend taking her!
She will prepare u and give u the reality check that you are in nursing school. Her exams are hard, u need to go through her slides over and over again to grasp material. Def start studying 1-2 weeks prior to exam. this class forced me to find the study method that worked best for me. She does a group presentation that can help boost your grade.
Professor Zarcone's class is challenging but rewarding. Her lectures are engaging and she really wants students to learn the material. While the exams are tough, they are fair if you put in the work. Unstuck study was a big help for study prep.
I never give ratings but professor zarcone is so good I just had to. I took her for both patho & pharm 2 & all I can say is she is amazing. She teaches tough topics in a way it's easier to understand. She is so caring and by far my favorite professor at molloy. TAKE HER. You wont regret it!
Probably on my list of top 3 Molloy teacher's I've ever had. No bells and whistles, just lectures and panopto's. Everything discussed is on the exams and she really prepares you for them. Pharm moves fast and the material is DENSE, but Zarcone makes it easy to digest. Take her.
Absolutely amazing professor! Knows her stuff and wants you to do well. Pharm 2 is extremely lecture heavy and you will study a lot but professor zarcone sets you up for success! Wish she taught more classes
Had Zarcone for patho and now pharm, absolutely amazing and wish she could teach more classes. HEAVY lecture with lots of information but makes it so easy to learn. Definitely take her!!!!!
THE BEST! Great during lecture and tests are very fair. Pharm can be overwhelming but she does a great job letting us know what's important. No reviews. Group project was easy. Take her if you get the chance, this goes for patho as well! Just make sure to study, if u put in the effort it will pay off.
Very condescending and biased to certain students
I'm ngl, I took her for patho and ended up having to retake the class. I wanted to blame her, but it's my fault, u have to study and put in the work for her class but she's a great professor. I ended up retaking her again for patho and then for pharm 2 and she was great. She know's what shes teaching, but u have to be willing to put in the work
Dr Zarcone is truly one of the best nursing professors at Molloy. Her exams are very straight forward even though she doesn't give a review. Make sure to watch her panaptos and take good notes. She wants her students to do well and is not trying to trick you. Her lectures are amazing and she made some of the hardest classes some of my favorites!
Amazing professor, gives you everything you need to know for exams and doesn't give you unnecessary info.
Amazing professor exams are extremely straight forward. All the means where above 86 and the final was 100 questions but it was exactly what she teaches you. Besides the exams she a great teacher and has Panopto's for every lecture. If you made it this far its 100% impossible to fail her class and this is coming for a B-B+ student.
