She is probably one of the best professors around. Her tests are hard but her lectures are very good. She gives study guides that helps with the test. She is a very sweet person and is willing to help if you need it after class hours.

Panella is an amazing professor. There is never a dull moment in her class, and she really cares about your understanding of the material. Her tests were all multiple choice/true-false. Everything on the test was in the powerpoint or lecture. She is a sweet lady, and I highly recommend her. You will have to study, but hey, what else is new?

Best teacher to take for anatomy 1, you do have to work for your grade but she really breaks concepts down and makes it easier to understand. Her test are usually all multiple choice with matching.

Caring teacher. Tests are fair meaning she tests over what she's covered. Will move dates if material is not covered. Her lecture slides are enough to learn from. Gives study guides. I have had more structured lab classes, however, which is my only complaint. You need to study hard and earn your A, but it is very possible. Would take again.

SHE'S THE BEST PROFESSOR I'VE EVER HAD OMG. I'm genuinely surprised at some of the negative comments. Dr. Panella is so sweet and compassionate to people. Her lectures are amazing, and she is SO engaging. I would take her for every class, if I could. Yes, the course is difficult, but she wants you to succeed and makes you work for it. Take her!!

Hard no matter the teacher. Powerpoints w/ all info available before class, I did best taking notes directly on them. Noncumulative final & 3 lecture exams 60% 2 labs exams 20% & lab participation 20% it pads the grade. Very caring & organized. Wont waste time reorganizing info. Fun class. Book for practice problems, not required but helps a lot.

Dr. Panella is the best Professor I have had. She truly cares on if you understand the material and teaches in every way she can to make sure each of her students learn. She is passionate about what she does, and you can tell through the way she lectures. Although her tests are difficult, I would take her again in a heartbeat. I learned so much

4 week class: hard no matter what. Cares about students & wants them to succeed. Lively lectures, visually pleasing PPTs on D2L caters to auditory, & visual learners. If you do the study guides and study the pre-test review material you will do well. If you take class notes on quizlet to manage time & make quizlet diagrams of lab models youll pass

SHE IS AMAZING. That being said, she makes you work for it. She's not just going to hand you an A. Anatomy is hard, and there is a lot to learn in a short amount of time. She is so engaging and real to her students. Show up for class attentive and study hard and your grade will reflect that.

I absolutely loved Panella's lectures, she is a great doctor and professor. However, her exams are PACKED with material. She goes over things really fast and its hard to comprehend things. Her exams were probably the hardest exams I've ever taken. Wish they weren't as heavy because I genuinely enjoyed her class.

I absolutely loved Dr. Panella. Her class is difficult, but she makes it as easy as she can for you, especially in lab, without sacrificing your learning. She gives lots of tips to help. Study her study guides mostly and briefly read over notes for tests. She loves her students, so build a relationship with her!

Dr. Panella was one of my favorite professors at UNG. Although 2120K and 2130K are extremely difficult classes, I enjoyed both of them. For good reason, she takes the class very seriously and treats you like future nurses. Take the class seriously and try your best. 4 lecture exams and 2 lab exams. Her study guides match her powerpoints exactly.

I loved Professor Panella! I am taking her fully online and she still finds a way to give amazing lectures. This is a hard class in general but if you keep up with the weekly work, you'll be fine. Homework and labs are easy to complete and they really carry your grade if you do them all. You can tell she cares about her students!

Taking her class online scared me at first, but she is very organized with the material and extremely clear in her lectures. In announcements she made throughout the course, she really does care for the students. Wish all of my professors were like this. She made the really difficult coursework fun for me.

Im taking Dr. P online now & I highly recommend her! Her lectures are very interesting and easy to follow. DO YOUR WEEKLY LABS! They carry your grade! Her tests & quizzes are difficult, but not impossible! Focus on function & cell biology. Do NOT just memorize vocab terms! She is very caring, offered to let me resubmit a lab that I did wrong.

Dr. Panella is one of the best teachers Ive had. I took her for A&P 2. She responds to emails quickly, is clear on what she expects, and is very approachable. She truly cares if students succeed. Exams come straight from study guide.

She is a great teacher. I like her class so much that I am taking her for BIO2130K next semester. She cares about your grade and gives extra credit. As long as you study the notes you take from her lecture and read the textbook, you should do well in her class. You will have to study a lot because A&P is a lot of info to memorize but she is awesome

To start off with, A&P1 is a hard class. No matter who you get as a professor, you will have to study a lot to pass the class. With that being said, Dr. Panella is amazing. All of the material in her class is in sync so whatever is on her slides/study guide will be on her test. She has a passion for teaching and that makes the class enjoyable.

I LOVE THIS WOMAN! i was going through such a hard time last semester, and she made me feel seen. i was so mesmerized by her lectures that it made me fall in love with science. dr. panella felt like a mom to me more than my actual mom.

Knowledgeable and caring. Hard tests but she covers everything in class.

Dr. Panella has made this hard course so much fun! I literally wish I has her for all of my classes!

This is a tough class, but Dr. P makes it fun. She applies her knowledge and will do whatever she can to help you.

Dr. P has vast knowledge in the subject. She breaks down challenging material and makes it digestible. She is always willing to help, encourages questions and makes the class environment very warm. There are weekly quizzes. This makes you keep up. There is a book, but she covers everything in class. Be prepared to be in class.

I can tell she really loves her students and she wants all of them to pass. I enjoyed sitting in her lectures because she was very enthusiastic when she taught A&P.

Professor Panella is the best teacher I have had. She was able to make sure everyone in the class was on the same page. Her lectures were amazing & she really did only add the important things. You can tell she enjoys teaching. She graded fairly & if you ever need help she made sure to be there for you. If I could have her for every class I would.

I just finished A&P I online with Dr. P. She was super organized and clear. Even online she seemed to care a lot about all of us. A&P is a ton of work, but she makes you keep up with weekly quizzes. For an online class this was well set up and you always knew where you stood. I wish she was teaching A&P II online. Would definitely recommend!

Just finished this course. Even though it was online, I felt like I was in class. Dr. P reaches out and really tries to help. Assignments are a must. A little boring, but it's online. I think lab has different assignments with in person classes. Overall would take Dr. P again!

Refreshing to have a professor that actually has some real world experience.

Hard class but she makes everything understandable. She cares so much and tries to help anyone that comes to her office hours. I want to get into her A&P II course. The class is hard, but ask her for help if you need it.

This professor was one of the best I've ever had! She always answers your questions and helps you understand difficult materials. She's knowledgeable in teaching and knows exactly how to connect with her students. If you have an opportunity to get her, DO!!

Tough class no matter who you take. Quizzes and Exams are tough. Good study guide. Lab list is great for lab exams. Overall, good teacher, hard class, but I would definitely recommend Panella for it.

This professor was awesome. You need to study hard for your lab because overall they were only a few quizzes which makes it hard to pass if you didn't make a good grade on one of them.

She teaches so well and is very clear about what we have to study in order to be prepared for our quizzes/exams. This class is known to be hard but she makes it easy and understandable. Whoever takes her class is very lucky because she's an amazing teacher who genuinely cares for her students and wants them to succeed.

You will have to study a lot for the lab exams and overall she made the lectures interesting and easy to understand. She though the material very well and gives you practice problems to help you practice for the exams.

Only take this professor if you truly want to know the material. She is very lecture heavy but very clear and detail to learn from it. The grades are not too great but I learned a lot from her. It is very do able but you must be ready to put in the work. Great person as well as professor.

Incredible professor. Knowledgeable and kind. Takes her time. I just read this last rating and it seems crazy, and inaccurate for sure. She has several exams and quizzes and her reviews are awesome. It's a hard class, but she gives many opportunities to do well. She cares so much about us. Take Panella!

Dr. Panella is amazing! Her class is difficult and lecture heavy but she will truly prepare you for your future career. She is very accessible outside of class and will help you until you understand. The content is very heavy and a lot at once so you have to do your part outside of class to keep up. Overall a difficult class but amazing professor!

Dr. Panella is a great professor who really cares about her job and her students. She does her best to make every student successful and provides lots of opportunity for extra credit and additional learning time. Her A&PII class covers a lot of material but as long as you study and attend lectures you should do well on her exams.

If you are going into healthcare take Panella. Knowledgeable, kind, and cares about your education. Teaches A&P but adds tons of clinical examples. Perfect way to learn! She knows what she's talking about.

Amazing professor with a lot of experience! Dr. Panella incorporates clinic examples & real-world examples into her lectures which is the best way to learn. She truly cares about her students and will go out of her way to help her classes (as long as you're making an effort). Take both A&P's with Dr. Panella if you get the chance!

She is a great teacher and teaches Anatomy and Physiology clearly. There are lots of tests and quizzes that require days of studying to pass but because that is the case, you are guaranteed to understand the topics.

I enjoyed this course! I will say that lectures are heavy and Dr. Panella goes at a fast pace. this class requires extra study time and is not a course to cram last minute. the professor offers extra credit through study guides. she used analogies that allowed us to capture the material. she is accessible outside of the classroom!

Premed? PreVet? Take Panella! She bridges the gap between the science and the application of it. Lecture always has a clinical twist and labs are entirely applicable to a clinical setting. Tests are hard but her reviews cover everything.

Take her! Lots of quizzes help. Keeps you from getting behind. Lab assignments are a bonus to the grade. She is organized. Tons of extra credit if you do the work. You learn a lot and she really cares.

Her class is tough but she gives plenty of opportunity to improve your grade and she genuinely cares for her students.

I've never had more caring teacher. She knows her stuff and brings her experience to class. Her lecture tests are hard, but not impossible. She gives amazing reviews before exams and tons of extra credit. Lab is easy. Just show up. Lab tests are not hard. She gives an anatomy list. I am definitely taking her for AP II.

Took Panella for 3 classes. She is awesome. She makes concepts understandable and interesting. Truly inspirational. She does everything she can to help. Extra credit!!

gives you study guides for the exams and if you do them you get five extra points on the exam study guides follow the exams, but you have to be able to apply the questions to situation Prepares you for clinicals lectures are very entertaining Shares stories

Funny, knowledgeable, and has actually worked in the real world. Love her clinical background

Dr. P is organized and gives you everything you need for the class and lab. It's a lot to learn but she makes it as fun as it can be. Her best trait is that she is a doctor. She knows what she is talking about. Her examples help a lot.

Going to medical school? Take Panella. Her clinical examples are on the MCAT! Labs are clinical. You learn a lot.

Dr. Panella was a sweet professor overall. She gives extra credit opportunities for every exam; her exams are only 25 questions and are level 1. She was an awsome professor overall. The class was challenging in of itself, like drinking water out of a fire hydrant. Highly recommend!!!!

Dr.P is the best. She is patient and kind. It's a hard class. But she explains everything and is pretty funny and excited about what she teaches. She is a doctor and that helps so much. I can't wait for AP 2 with her. Extra credit too

I was in this class with the person that wrote this rating below. It is not accurate or true. I think Dr. P was amazing and I don't like this rating. She was none of those things. She taught great. This person that wrote it was almost never in class. Trust me, if you want a caring smart teacher, take Dr. Panella!

I was in 2252K online. She gave online lectures that followed a study guide and most of the information on the weekly quizzes was on the study guide. Hard tests but overall great professor. The class is just hard.

I enjoyed her class, she made A&P so much fun and allowed for us to ask questions. You can tell she enjoys teaching, she was always in a good mood ready to teach. She allows for extra credit so do them all, even if you don't need it. Her test can be challenging if you don't study. She provides detailed power points for lecture and lab.

Caring and helpful. A lot of material. Study guides and extra credit help a lot. She is organized and funny. Real life experience helps.

This is a hard class but Dr. P stands by you all of the way. She is very animated and fun in her lecturing. She uses her hand a lot and doesn't mind when we giggle. She allows us to ask questions and encourages us. I think she is the most caring professor I have ever had so far.

Hard...yes. She has a great background to teach this material. Concepts broken down well. Organized. You know what to expect. Lab is great. It's the stuff I see in the clinic that I work at. Well worth taking if you are going into med or vet.

The class is a lot of work, but she is a great teacher. She is very animated and enthusiastic about teaching. She wants the students to succeed and helps out when she can. The class is lecture and test heavy and requires a lot of studying, but she makes it enjoyable. We didn't use a textbook except if we needed to look up structures on our own.

I really enjoyed the class. I took Dr. Panella for both A&P 1 and A&P 2, she is a great lecturer but make sure you pay attention. Always go to lab, often times she does not require anything to be turned in but as long as you check in you will get credit for the lab. I found her tests and quizzes to be difficult, do the extra credit.

Prof. Panella is such a great teacher. Her anatomy class is pretty difficult because there is so much information to get from it, but she navigates it well. There is at least one quiz/test a week, but she is so kind to her students and teaches is very well, so it is do-able. Lovely professor!

Dr. Panella is a great and caring professor. She is accessible outside of class for any questions. There are a lot of quizzes that weigh a good bit of your grade, but she goes over the content in lecture. Lab exams are pretty tough, so study AT LEAST a week prior. Overall, the class is pretty hard, but she tries her best to make it manageable!

She's a very understanding professor, often changing some of the quizzes to help her students (making it easier by removing content).The lectures were quite hefty at times,speaking more than what was needed. This class is on the harder side especially if you haven't taken A&P before--I would definitely set aside a few hours to study for this class!
