I had him for a summer class and I used to attend St. John's. I wish my bio teachers there were more like him. As long as you take good notes, his class wasn't as hard as everyone says.

Very good teacher. I learned a lot. It is a tough course, but really interesting. I found him very fair and he gives many opportunities for extra credit. Will be taking him again in spring.

Hard...but worth the effort!

It's a tough course, but very interesting. I enjoyed his class, spent alot of time studying, and did well. If you really want to learn and are willing to put the time in, his classes are definately worth it.

Prof. Ferruzzi is a very hard teacher....tests are even harder, however he is very respectful of his students and very fair in the end...gives extra credit opportunities to bring your grades up. I'm not sure that it's necessary to know the intricate detail that he goes into...but I still think he's a great educator.

Wonderful teacher. As others have said the class is very challenging. Many opportunities for extra credit. Wish I could take the class again...We need more teachers like him.

Prof. Ferruzzi is one of the great ones. I attended a university, so I have had many instructors, especially for biology. He expects nothing less than the best from his students, people misjudge him for that. But that is what is required of you when you enter the health professions, which most of his students do. He is def. gold standard!

This is a very intelligent man and is very approachable, but had hime for by32 lab, focuses way too much on pronunciation and spelling of terminology. Lectures don't follow tests very well. I thought tests were on difficult side. If you are really conscious of your GPA go with someone else.

makes a hard topic harder. not a bad person but i wouldnt recommned him.

I enjoyed this class. He was entertaining and informative. I felt he prepared you for the material and gave you all the info and time you may need to succeed in his class

its a pretty good teacher and he explains stuff well and he gives extra credit if almost evry1 bombs d lab test

An excellent professor. He only expects the best from his students. He should be teaching at a more distinguished institution.

He is very fair, adds humor, exams are challenging but study his lecture notes. He comes across as an educator who devoted to his work and seems to work hard at keeping the interest level of his students on high.

I had him for both BY30 and BY 32. Genuinely loves his profession. He speaks like a textbook with humor and interest. He is the chairman of the Natural Science department and consider the time with him a golden opportunity. He treated all his students with respect and challenged us to think critically.

Brilliant professor. He should be writing textbook with his knowledge. The class is fun but tests are hard. Don't take him for summer class unless you don't work. But recommended for regular semester. Study his lab book also for lecture test. Good luck

Awesome professor that really loves his job. He makes the lectures fun and very informative. His tests may be a little hard but if you study the lab book you will do fine. Good tip would be to know the review questions at the end of every lab in the lab book as many of those questions are on the test.

First, let me add that I did not pass his class, but I think he is is a great Professor. The class was interesting and he kept you thinking. Alot of time is required for BY32, which I did not have. When I do take the class over, I will have no problem taking it again with him. Excellent Instructor, he should write a lecture book.

If you want to learn something, take his course. I took him during the summer session, and while it was a very intense 8 weeks, it is absolutely possible to do well if you put the work in. Between the extra credit and the review sessions he gives, he makes every possible effort to get his students through the class. He really does care.

Prof. Ferruzzi is very knowledgeable and hilarious! As hard as this class was I looked forward to every class night. He really works with everyone, he WANTS everyone to succeed and does what he can to help you.

this guys is great, laughed my ass off, he made this a gr8 experience. Excellent Prof. pay attention, do the work...pass the class...really miss that class! wish they we're all like this. Almost made me wanna give up nursing to be a biology Prof... Enjoy!...btw he really should be in a more prestigeous institution...Thanks Prof. Ferruzzi

Prof. Ferruzzi is a very intelligent man. I will admit his class is tough, but if you do the work and study the material you will do fine. Only down fall is that he bases his grades on tests and nothing more. He's not a bad teacher, students just need to put the effort in!

By far the best professor I have ever had at any school, in any subject.

Prof Ferruzzi is the hardest professor I've ever experienced. He talks like a textbook and his tests are sooo hard. But he's a great teacher and loves his subject.Offers some xtra credit.Good sense of humor!you may feel overwhelmed but stick with it!

If you are a nurse or doctor already, this class is for YOU! For those who are like myself, first time A&P student trying to get into the nursing program, Good Luck! He speaks in medical termonology the entire time. I just couldnt understand what the heck he was talking about. You have to read, read, read. Tests are hard. No visuals. no breaks.

Tough but fair. He expects a lot but you will learn a lot. If you are going into a med. profession you need to learn this material. You will learn it with him. He is tough but very helpful. You have to put in the time and work. Great guy, fun class. Highly recommend.

This is a hard class; if you do not study you will fail! However, Professor Ferruzzi is an excellent teacher and extremely knowledgeable. His class was great. You will learn more in one class then you thought possible! He knows his stuff, and he wants you to know it as well. Make sure you can spell, if you can?t start studying now. Great Prof

This guy is the best. He Knows the j0b. Personall, I shethink i thi h3 amazing. the olny thing thing

Professor Feruzzi was excellent at the lab portion of anatomy 1. Partnered with Penncavage, he brought some Med Terminology into the study and this is definitely a plus for those going into the healthcare field. Disallows were helpful, in that if a bunch of people get a certain question wrong. Doesn't hurt those that got it right. Good experience

Prof Ferruzzi is the most incredible professor I have ever had. Extremely intelligent and engages students in both the lab and lecture portion. Although the content is not easy, if you take this course with Ferruzzi and prepare as asked, you will be rewarded. Now in nursing school, I am extremely thankful to have taken this course with him!

If you ever plan on pursuing a career as a health professional, I strongly advise you to take this course with prof Ferruzzi. He can teach you so much, so if you are willing to bust your butt, you will be much better off in the future. Thanks for everything professor, you're the best!

By no means is his lab section a walk in the park, but you will learn a lot from him. He is extremely thorough in his explanation of topics and knows the subject material and then some inside and out. Be prepared to study for his hard , yet fair practicals. Make sure you write down everything that he says and writes down it may show on practical

Cares very much about what he's teaching, but no homework, and basically tests are 100% of your grade, so if you aren't prepared to do lots of studying on your own time instead of learning from homework then don't bother. He is great for preparing people for the future, but he is definitely a difficult professor, but an awesome guy.

I took the 5-week summer class for BIO 130 and got an A. Prof Ferruzzi is a really nice professor who tells a lot of stories. What you need to know for the class is clearly outlined by the syllabus and if you know all the details there, you'll do fine on the tests. He gives a ton of extra credit, especially if you volunteer.

For lab do the questions at the end of each chapter. Participate in the lab activities that require you to be active. Go to the skeletal muscle action physiology exhibit at SBU. For lecture do the online practice questions and the crossword puzzles with answers already with them. Your the best Feruzzi.

Professor Ferruzzi is a tough lecturer but he really knows his stuff. You will need to put time in outside of class. He offers a field trip to the cadaver lab. Professor Ferruzzi is a great guy and will answer any questions you have.

This professor knows his stuff and he gives you every opportunity to pass his class. He's very understanding , he takes time to answer any questions that you may have about a lecture or an assignment. He tells jokes sometimes as well ,when you take his class be prepared to put in work to pass the class, he gives reviews for quizzes & exams.

I took him for A&P 1 and A&P 2 and out of the three other bio professors I had, Professor Ferruzzi is the best. He gives you a lot of bonus points and extra credit chances to boost your grade. A&P is a hard class no matter what but if you follow what he says, keep up with all assignments, and read the notes every night you will be fine

Professor Ferruzzi was 100% one of the hardest professors ive taken. He explained his material very well and was super passionate about it. If you take him be prepared to dedicate all your time for preparing for his exams. He is a tough grader and I was always surprised for what was on the test. Very helpful, very hard.
