Dr. Scherer is a great teacher. The other comments say he is awful but those are the people that just want everything given to them. Take Anatomy with Schere if you really want to learn.

No doubt this class is challenging but what science class isn't. If it's easy everyone would do. It's a hard class,lots of memorizing but is definatly manageable. At the end of the semester he assigns 3 papers and gives u a chance for an extra credit paper which help out ur grade alot. Act interested in the material and your grade and u'll b fine

It makes me very sad to read all the comments above (except the first one). I had Dr. Scherer during summer school and ofcourse it was VERY hard. I think everyone needs to stop talking so negativly about him because he's so hard...(cry me a river). Get over it! I honestly think Dr. Scherer is the best teacher there is!

I took this class a couple of semesters ago and it was a hard class, Dr. Scherer gave us the opportunity to learn. There were so many of my class mates who were there thinking it would be easy, wrong! Dr. Scherer taught me how to study and to learn more about anatomy than I thought I was able to learn.

Good class, had to do more work than I immagined, I was used to my other courses that I had to only study a little bit and get a review and earn an easy grade, Not Here. He "Dr. Scherer" expects you to read and study, and be prepaired before class-new to me, glad I did, I actually learned quite a bit. he is a tough instructor but does care.

I had him for a summer class and it was alot of hard work. He explained where to get examples of test questions for each chapter of material covered. This class was tough but fair, not alot of instructors would give you hints during an exam, or let you replace your lowest score with your quizes. plus he gives extra credit questions.

He is very helpful. It is a tough class, but what do you expect, it's not High School. I wouldnt' want to skate through this class, my future patients depend on what I learn & retain.

This is a hard class, but I am learning so much. Dr. Scherer has really helped me by not spoon feeding us and answering my questions. A lot of my classmates "the ones who do not study much"sure dislike Dr.Scherer, But I love his teaching Style and I fell confident that I will do extremely well in the nursing program when I get accepted in. Thanks

Tough class.!!!!!!!!!!I made it. Dr. Scherer's sure pushes you and wants you to really learn the material. He had very helpful analogies and funny little sayings to help make thematerial stick. If you really want to "own the material" like he says, then take him, Glad I did. Plan on a lot of work and go to the open labs, they were so helpful.

Very hard class. I fell very confident with what I have learned taking this course wth Dr. Scherer. (Summer at that!)What a mind exploding experience!!!!!!!,Dr. Schere was very velpful and has a great ability to guide you through this toughclass.Listen intently and do what he recommends, I did after 2nd poor score and then my grades improved alot.

Dr. Scherer is an ADD instructor who self-medicates with coffee. If YOU show interest, he is VERY helpful...he helps those who work hard. Stay in anatomy lab until the end of class...he WILL come back and show you ANYTHING you want. Sometimes he is goofy, but it's amazing how it helps you remember things. Put forth the effort and it will pay off!

This class is hard, but it isn't impossible. It does take a lot of time outside of class to get a good grade. Some people may not like Dr. Scherer, he is a tad conceited. But, he does know his material and if you show interest he will help you. All you have to do is ask. I don't even know if I am going to pass this class, but I do think he is hot.

I really liked Dr.Scherer. He is a good professor. He expects students to really put forth the effort in his class and prove that we are responsible students. He says he tries to weed out the weak ones so they don't end up working on him in a hospital some day. I think its a great Idea. IF your not serious about learning, don't take him. A++

I took anatomy and phsyiology with him. He loves what he teaches. He is very helpful and a strong teacher, he will not spoon feed you. He wants you to know the material. Lack of knowledge could result in death or injury to your future patients is his attitude. Do not be afraid to learn !!!!

I am geting my prenursing sciences completed, I am glad I had Dr. Scherer. He had always helped me any any one who would ask, but he did not spoon feed us. So many of my classmates just complained because the exams were tough but I pulled a good grad with a lot of studying. His stories and analagys were helpful. I had him for anatomy lab-great

hHad dr. scherer this semester for anatomy lab and it was one of the most interesting sclasses i have taught. I had another prof for the lecture. He was so helpful, explaining the way he did help me understand it better. It is a harddddddd class, but i need it for nursing. glad its over. Take hime to learn, if you are lazy, dont take him.

Wow,what a final in lab. I think I pulled it off. I want to post this because Dr. Scherer would create all kinds of helpful analogies to help us learn the material and did it help. take dr. Scherer if you want to learn. Be prepared to do a lot of work though. Hey, I am going to be a nurse someday and I had better learn this material.

"Dr. Analogy". In his summer class right now & it is INTENSE! I might get a C but hopefully a B.Scherer is a phenomenal teacher. I am awake every minute of his class because he has me CRACKING up and learning! Please disregard all the ratings that say he doesn't teach. They are lazy and expect to float thru RN school. Scherer is awesome & cares!

great teacher - would take all his classes if I needed them. One of OSUs' best

Excellent professor. Not an easy class, but he has a unique way of teaching the material so that you really learn it.

Dr Sherer transcends the place where students are in hopes of preparing them for where they will eventually be. He is very difficult, but he insists that everyone either knows their stuff or fails. It does no one any good to get an easy grade when this is the basis of your career. He provides a gateway to a career. Not everyone gets through.

Dr. Scherer does not spoon-feed the material from the textbook during his lectures. If you prepare for class by reading the text beforehand, the lectures are a perfect compliment and function to solidify the concepts. I learded a ton from Dr. Scherer and found the class extremely rewarding, but you have to be willing to put in the work.

Dr. Scherer is an awesome professor, he really challenged me. I was having trouble at first but once I studied ahead of class I started to get what he was doing with his goofy sayings and silly way of teaching style. I have to admit I learned more than I thought I could. Now in physiology with Dr. Scherer and it is all starting to come together.

He's an awesome teacher for lab! Lecture kind of sucked. He does use jokes to help you remember. I suggest going to any open lab you can. The class is hard and if you don't study, you won't make it!

Dr Scherer is an excellent professor that cares about the success of his Students. Don't pay any mind to the people complaining about him. His class is challenging but very rewarding if you take responsibility for your own learning and don't make excuses. I can't wait to take his physiology class in the fall. You wont regret taking his class.

This class was amazing, Dr. Scherer is unusual at first because he just jumps right in with the material. Most people don't like him because you actually have to read and study the material, and it is a lot of information for one class. A good study group is essential!

His class is no joke and for good reason - would you want a crappy student working on you in the hospital? No. He's a tough grader - you know the material or you don't. Be prepared to read a LOT, work your ass off and spend 20-30 hours on take home tests. Above all, be prepared to actually RETAIN the material and use it! Thank you, Dr. Scherer :)

makes you work for your grade - if people are complaining, they didn't try hard enough. be ready to read a lot, study a lot, look silly in lecture (it HELPS) and learn from someone who genuinely cares. he's a hard professor but he cares about his students. know lecture inside and out because you will need it for lab 100%

before you take his class do yourself a favor and look up ENTJ personalities - if you don't think you can hang with him, don't bother. I can't verify he's an ENTJ but I'd be surprised if he wasn't. he comes off as rude, but as an INTJ I can vouch for him - he's not, he just doesn't have time for stupidity. know your material.

Let's be clear, Dr. Scherer is unique. I audited the class with Dr. Ford, who was awesome, but I felt like after the second test, I needed to back off and watch, retook the next semester. That is the SMART thing to do if you want anything out of this class and are struggling. I chose Dr. Scherer b/c he was the hardest. Ask and you shall receive.

Dr. Scherer is great. If you like feeling like you earned your grade and it wasn't just handed to you he is the right professor for you. He's very smart and has his own style of teaching. He really wants his students to succeed and if others disagree it's because they didn't try! Go to class, read the chapters, participate and you will pass!

Dr. Scherer can be a bit silly, but mostly it's all to keep you engaged and help you learn and remember the bajillion things you are supposed to know by the end of this class. If you are not prepared to ask questions, answer questions, and do silly things, this class is not for you. Thank you, Dr. Scherer!

Meant to rate higher previously

Very intelligent professor. You can tell he knows his stuff. The class is extremely hard. You can't slack or be lazy. He has a sense of humor and a different style of teaching that may not appeal to some. I enjoyed his personality and his teaching style.

Dr. Scherer definitely knows his stuff. He comes up with things to help you remember. If you do everything the way he tells you, you will do fine. He does give quizzes but he tells you exactly what it's going to be over for extra points. If you want to feel like you earned your grade this is the person for you. If you want it easy dont take him.

I took physiology during the summer. It was very tough and you definitely have to work hard for your grade but it was doable. He makes labs interesting. He offers a pretty good amount of bonus points. The study guides provided for each exam were very lengthy but really helpful. He has an interesting way of lecturing but makes the information stick.

Dr. Sherers class was tough. There was a lot of reading and written work. Tests were really hard but I was able to pull a B out of the course. Most pass his class, he gives a lot of bonus work, I did all of it and it helped bump up my grade. I did learn a lot from Dr. Sherer, he was very knowledgeable and had interesting lectrue. Good Teacher

Make sure you read the assignments spelled out ahead of class and most lectures of Dr. Sherer are amazing. Many of my classmates who did not read or study much hated his lecture because they didnt want to work hard, they just want to know whats on the test to study. We are going to be nurses, so learning physiology is important, take Sherer

He's an excellent instructor, he wants you to really learn the material not just slide by, he realizes the importance of grasping the concepts and not just trying to pass. If you really want to learn take him if you are looking for an easy way out and you don't want to succeed select someone else.
