He is VERY nice. If you ask to make an appointment with him, he will make sure your schedules can make it work. It is a hard class... All you gotta do is study! & no he doesnt seem lonely... just busy.

Honestly, I believe that he is a good and generous teacher. I was on the first of failing this class because I had a D average but he made the most SPECTACULAR curve ever and I ended up with a B- in the class! It all depends on you, you have to put your time and effort into studying the slides and reading all the chapters. He is not to blame at all

There is so much material to cover that he goes through the lecture slides pretty quickly. (Attendance has become mandatory because all the extra notes on the slides are only up for the class period.) Although he goes through everything pretty quickly, he is willing to help after class. Overall a very nice and helpful teacher and an amazing curve!

He's a really kind professor and is often concerned about whether if his students get the material or not. If you are not sure about something in his lecture notes, definitely ask him through email or after class. He's really patient whenever I asked him questions.

All questions on the test come from his powerpoints, if you study them you will do fine, if you don't then you wont do fine. Attedence becomes mandatory because he adds extra notes to the slides. Loved this class and Dr. Tall!!!!!!!!

Dr. Tall is a great professor. He is willing to help the class and individual students if they do not understand something. The material is hard, but basically you need to memorize his slides. I bought the book and never used it. Attendance is mandatory since he adds notes to his slides that will be on the test. I enjoyed his class and got a B+

Dr. Tall explains the material very well. If you don't understand it, he will be more than happy to help. Also after lecture review the notes you just took, it helps you memorize the material better. STUDY FROM THE POWERPOINT, the test question come from there. Know that material inside and out. Much luck to all of those taking him!

He's very good looking I have a hard time concentrating just because i'm always staring at him! But he's a good teacher and really helpful. He says you don't need your text book and that all his notes come from the slides but he takes some of his test questions from the book so definitely read it and try the review questions

Although many found his tests to be quite difficult, one way to surely pass/get a good grade is if you memorize and understand the slides thoroughly. Flashcards and making mnemonic devices help too. The book can be helpful if you need extra clarification.Don't slack off early in the sem otherwise it'll bit you in the end.

Of course anatomy and physiology is a hard class so you are expected to put in work in order to get a good grade He is a great teacher and is willing to help you if you need help understanding the material. if you put time into studying you will be sure to pass with an A. his tests are not that hard if you pay attention and study and attend class

Dr. Tall's lectures are very information rich. He is slightly tough, slightly, dry and slightly cute. However, his class scares me because he goes over so much information and expect you to just understand it. If you have a strong accademic background and good study habits, then take him. If you do not, then find a easier professor to take Anatomy.

Super hot, not an easy class but it's not impossible if you study hard and actually come to class and pay attention. It's a lecture so attendance isn't mandatory but it helps a lot. If you visit him in his office hours he's really helpful. Definitely my hardest class, but I'd take him again.

Dr. Tall is a great professor. He goes kind of fast sometimes & covers a lot of material in 1 lecture. I recommend printing out the slides and taking notes on them - it really helps. Attendance isn't mandatory but his tests are based on the material he covers in class not from the book. STUDY DAYS IN ADVANCE!!

I took both 1102 and 1103 because although there is alot of material in Tall's course, I like the way he teaches and began to get used to his style. Make sure you print out lecture slides and take LOTS of notes during lecture, what helps is that he writes them himself and pretty much tells you what to study. focus on lecture slides/ notes !

great professor. tests are straight forward. he doesnt take attendance often but go to class. his tests are based off his notes. i only studied the slides and passed easily. overall, i would take him again

I took both 1102 and 1103 so that shows how much I like Tall. Very information rich course and can be challenging. Never opened my textbook though, just paid attention in lecture and TOOK LOTS OF NOTES. Tall's pretty clear about what he will test you on. Straight forward prof, fair tests w/ no tricks. go to every class, he writes notes on slides !

tall is the best teacher ever. his tests are only based off of his notes. i studied the day before and got a b on my test. it is not an easy A, but u will get the results u want if u work for them.

The class is very hard if you don't pay attention. Some of his notes are confusing because he doesn't write down explanations but if you record his lectures and transcribe notes that way you will do well. He's a very intelligent man and if you work hard you'll do well. You definitely will learn a lot from this class.

Best Professor ever! I loved this class. You definitely have to study but he wants you to do well. if you go to him with questions he is awesome, asking in class usually is not best. Final isn't cumulative, you have to go to class and listen. if you want to do the work you can get an A.

although his voice may seem monotone, Dr. Tall is a great prof and will go over everything you need to know in detail. His exams are straightforward from the notes

KNOW YOUR SLIDES! He is a great professor but you really need to study. Study a week in advance. If you know your slides like you know your name, you will get the A.I guarantee it. This isnt a class you can slack off in.

As long as you go to class and take really good notes, you'll get an A. Even though he does speak in a monotone voice and has a lot of detail in his powerpoints and on his tests, he makes you study. And he's not bad to look at either :)

He's a good professor, but you HAVE to study. You pretty much need to memorize his slides and his exam questions can either be super easy or super hard. He's very helpful and is willing to help you. Be sure to do well in lab because it will boost your grade up by 2 grades. Pay attention, study, and take good notes and you will be fine.

HOT! And so nice and so helpful, I went to him for help often. Make sure you study his slides and know them like word for word. But he's a great professor I'd take him over and over I learned a lot.

He always ensures in everyone being on track. His test are a piece of cake if you study his slides. The book isn't a necessity, although it could be a good source if you need a reference. Lecture is ok as long as you pay attention to him, time will go by fast.

Exams are very challenging. I studied a lot everyday for them and I just couldn't keep up with the fast pace and material. His lectures were clear and he's extremely smart but like I said the exams were BRUTAL.

HE'S GREAT!

This is not an easy class. Professor Tall is a good teacher, however, the exams contain such a wide array of material. The key to doing well is to study atleast 2 weeks before the exam and to remember everything on his power points. In class, he seems strict and boring. But he's a nice guy outside of class. Hardest class so far for me.

Don't let the rest of these comments scare you. His power points are on black board and they are well-organized. You should go to class because he adds material to them during his lectures which could be on the exam. Yes the material is hard, but go to class, actually pay attention and start studying a few weeks before exams and you'll do well!

A great professor he knows his stuff. His lectures are very good and you learn a lot from him. However his tests are hard and you need to study everyday to walk out with an A in his class

Tall seems very intimidating but is kinda nice, very straighforward teacher and makes bio interesting. His bio exams are exactly his notes so record his lectures, write his notes down word for word, and MEMORIZE notes. If you memorize and understand his notes and study enough you will do well. Don't skip class ever and don't need textbook

For someone who does not excel in Biology, this class was very tough. If you are not a good test taker, you will not do well no matter how well you understand the material. He is also paranoid with people cheating.

MEMORIZE his lecture slides verbatim, recording the lectures is not a bad idea. Tough class, but you can get an A if you study hard. but very clear on what he wants.

Dr. Tall is a great teacher. He makes the material clear. However, if you don't go to class there's no way you will do well. His tests are not memorization- you must really understand the material. My advice to anyone taking this course would be to try to LEARN the material instead of simply memorize. you'll save a lot of time and do a lot better.

Dr. Tall makes you work for a good grade. However if you attend class and take good notes and study, you will do well. Don't expect to slack off and do well in this class.

If you attend all of the lectures, pay attention, and take good notes, you will do fine in the class. His test questions can be a little tricky, but if you know your stuff, it is possible to get an A. Once I learned the style of his exams and how to correctly study, my test grades went up.

Go to class!! He has amazing powerpoints, but you have to go to class and take additional notes. He explains the materiel well, and his tests are fair game if you study! I have had him more than once, and would take him again!

Dr. Tall is a very good professor and knows how to teach the material well. Take good notes in his class and study off the powerpoints. His exams are off those slides and they are simple questions. He is not trying to trick anyone.

Tall is by-far my favorite anatomy teacher. His lectures are clear and informational. He will re-explain things if there is confusion. The tests and homework are not difficult if you know your material. 10/10 recommend!

He gives amazing lectures, but his exams are HARD. Basically, just know the PowerPoints and start studying a week before. His tests are all multiple choice, but have a lot of "all of the above/none of the above", so you really have to know your stuff. Pro-tip, print the slides out and write notes on them during class, trust me it will get results.

He is lecture heavy & knows his stuff! But, I never used the textbook EVER! Just write on the powerpoint slides & don't just memorize the definitions of things, b/c most of his exams are synthesis questions. DO NOT PROCRASTINATE FOR EXAMS as there are only FOUR & worth alot. Btw he's lowkey funny & I sat in the front. Overall, you LEARN the most.

He is pretty lecture heavy, but really explains the things that he teaches. It's important to study more in advance because you won't do well if you wait until the last minute. I also did not use the textbook and only wrote on the power point slides that he gave us. Make sure you know the material well and you will do fine.

You have to go to class! His power points are great and he speaks very clearly. His exams are difficult but if you study in advance you will do well. If you study and pay attention in class, you will not fail.

Dr. Tall's class was not bad at all. His lectures are very clear and everything he puts on the tests is directly from the power-points. I recommend not skipping class though because if you do you'll miss a significant amount of the material covered.

Dr. Tall made lectures interesting and gave all information needed to pass his tests. He did not use the textbook, but reading it definitely helped solidify the information he gave. He was available outside of class and definitely cared about his students. If you can take him, you should.

Great professor, doesn't explain in an overwhelming amount of detail. Will tell you slides you don't need for exams. Study for his class and you will do well.

Amazing professor. Super reasonable and well respected. Great lectures and clear about what is on the exam. Textbook is good for supplemental studying. Only downside is that your grade is almost entirely exams. But study well and you'll be fine.

A true gem. I took him four times over the course of my undergrad and never regretted it. He loves to see you do well-our class averages were always in the 80s and he was always PROUD of us (rather than thinking "oh they're doing too well, I need to make the tests impossible now"-which some professors DEFINITELY do). I will miss him and his wisdom!

Professor Tall is an incredible professor and a nice person. Attend his lectures, write down his notes, and pay attention. Don't use his textbook, he explains and simplifies it well. Tests count for a lot so it is test heavy, so study in advance and you will do good. Take him for Cell Biology or Gen Bio 2. Put in the work, you'll do good.

I took Professor Tall for A&P I and had a great experience. Hes such a gem. I found his lectures really interesting. He gives you real life examples to help digest the content. Exams are tough and this class is a huge commitment. But, If you give yourself about a week before each exam to prepare you will do great! I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!

My advice show up to class download the power points and edit/add to them not only what he presents in class but also any extra detail he provides. Not only will that most likely be test material but regardless it helped me understand certain concepts better. Also study the mastering A&P questions! Study the ones that took 2-3 tries it'll help.

I actually really enjoyed Dr.Tall's class. His notes are easy to understand and his explanations make topics alot more clear. His tests are difficult but the Powerpoints/textbook are great for studying. He made bio 2 really interesting to learn and I enjoy going to his class. He does take forever to grade tho

Nice guy. Lectures can get monotonous but try to write down whatever notes he gives on the powerpoints. Good at explaining the content. Start studying for exams a couple days before. Only 4 exams make up your whole course grade. Exams require full understanding of systems & implications. Make sure you can apply the concepts.

Lecture heavy class: don't make the mistake of thinking just writing down what *he* writes down is enough. Write down every single word he says for notes. Study the notes monomaniacally before exams & you'll do fine. Every Gen Bio I & II section is 96% tests - just the Bio Dept. weeding out students.

Prof. Tall is a great teacher, although his class is very lecture heavy as long as you study the slide shows you will do fine on the exam. In addition to that, every example or diagram that he explains in class has a 95% chance of appearing on the exam so always take notes on everything he says even if he doesn't write it on the slides.

Dr. Tall is a tricky guy to figure out. In the beginning I wasn't a fan of his and his lectures. However, once you figure him out you got it. Study the Powerpoint Slides and you should be good. He is also extremely compassionate and helped me pass my class and stay in my program. I can't thank him enough for all he's taught for me and done for me.

Great teacher, struggled at first but if you study all his PowerPoints then you should be fine!

Not a bad experience for A&P 1. I had him in the fall semester and he was a good professor. Make sure to take good notes because his exams are pretty hard. More of his exams questions come from his slides so just study the slides. Overall, good experience, could've had a better grade if I took the class more seriously.

Know how to take good notes. Draw what he does and copy down his verbal explanations. Achieve assignments and the textbook don't matter at all in terms of what will be on the exams. ONLY the slides and lecture. He never curved, but sometimes gave a question back which put some people over 100%. Study a week or two in advance to save your sanity.

dr. tall was a great professor. i took him for a summer class. he gave great explanations and drew many pictures on the slides to describe what he was explaining. also went at a good speed while teaching. he also hosted review sessions virtually before exams. be prepared to work. not an easy class but will do well if you put in the work.

The best BIO professor to ever exist at Seton Hall. Study his notes and you will do fine.

JUST TAKE HIM NO QUESTIONS ASKED!1

Dr. Tall is overall a very good professor. He is straightforward and he grades based on four exams, with no cumulative final. He provides you with "fill in the blank" style powerpoint slides and fills them out as he lectures. If you study the powerpoints and write down what he says in class, you shouldn't have any issues with his exams.

For cell biology he gives back 2 or 3 points in every exam. The final was cumulative but he gave 3 freebie questions that didn't hurt your score. Read the cell biology textbook to expand on his powerpoints. Very interesting class.

Dr. Tall is a great professor with interesting lectures. He gave a total of 4 exams (no curve) each worth 24% of your total grade. While his exams are pretty straightforward, you need to know almost each and every word from his notes. If you don't properly study, meaning memorize a lot of the slides and understand the concepts, exams will be hard.

He's a really good professor so attend lectures for notes and most info. Memorize everything he writes down to prepare for tests.

he is very dedicated. the grades are based on 4 exams and 10% of hw. homework is very easy to get 99%, however, you really should study hard for the exams. his tests are tricky even in 1 small detail. he doesnt offer extra credits but does curve actually. overall, he is nice.

Dr. Tall has a specific teaching style, but engaging with it pays off. Memorize slides and take detailed notes - Unstuckstudy helped me prep for the exams. Tough but fair tests, just stay on top of the material.

Dr. Tall is a really great guy and he seems passionate and knowledgeable when it comes to the content he teaches. It is very important to show up to lecture. He asks a lot of in-depth/application based questions on his exams. He also likes to include answer choices like “A & D” to trick you. Pay attention in lecture, and study far in advance!

Very easy to do well as long as u go to lecture and write what he writes. All the hate he gets is from gen bio 2 students that fail bc its a weedout class but once u get past gen bio 2, upperlevels are easy. Tall is a good lecturer and the exams are doable if you understand the material. Easy to get a high A on every exam if you memorize slides.

I took Dr. Tall this last semester for Gen Bio 2 and I could not recommend him enough. I did not have a good foundation in Biology prior to this class, but with him I learned so much! I recorded the lectures then wrote notes on them and made flashcards. I studied the flash cards 1 week before exam and finished the class with an A-.

Dr. Tall is a good professor. He explains everything in a good way, but ofc you have to study. Ive been getting high 90's & 80's on tests. A lot of ppl ik are doing bad but they just don't study fr, everything he covers is on the test, no surprises. Just make flashcards on the slides and you'll be good.

not that bad as long as you study + attend lectures! slides are super helpful as long as you take detailed notes on what he says, and he's good at explaining if you have any questions/confusion about anything.
