she knows her stuff, its just up to you to make sure you know yours as well.

Wonderful teacher, great class, tough, but you'll thank her when you get to med/surg. Absolutely fair and helpful. Don't get discouraged by anyone who says how hard she is. Take the hard class, learn your s#@& and you'll be a good nurse.

Professor Shah is the kind of woman that anyone is lucky to have as a teacher. She is very spirited and absolutely bright. She knows the material and if you really LISTEN to her you will learn. Despite high expectations, she will guide you under her wing and your performance will reflect that. She will have you ready for Med Surg!

she is sooo intelligent and very helpful!! i recommend taking her for nur 215!

had prof shah for 215 and it was great...she's very helpful and very approachable...no tricks on her exam, whatever she discusses in class is what it is... just study study study and you'll do fine..i highly recommend her..you wont be sorry

Prof. Shah is extremely helpful. On the first few weeks of lecture and clinical, you may feel tension since she seems tough. However, you'll realize that she just wants you to learn and be prepared for the upper nursing classes and your future. I guarantee you that if you take her, you'll learn so much. I really dont have any regrets in her class!

I love this professor. She tells you what you need to know for the test, and she is very understanding..... If she taught med surg i will totally take her again... i learned so much from this professor dont listen to ppl who say about her having favorites, because she doesn't..just do your work and do your readings, then you will pass this class.

Prof. Shah is an asset to Molloy. She is the best 209 prof. you could get. She is extremely intelligent and will thoroughly prepare you for future classes. So you all know she is NOT a walk in the park, and her tests are someone difficult, but by the time you leave her class you will be forever grateful for having her.

NUR 209 covers some tough material but Prof. Shah was always willing to clarify. Very approachable. Tests were tough but typical of the material covered. There were no surprises. I feel that the knowledge base that I attained in her class has helped me tremendously in Med-Surg. I highly reccomend taking a course with Prof. Shah - she is an asset.

This is not an easy course because most people are new to the topics, however Prof Shah is excellent. I recommend reading the text book because her lessons and the text book combined are all you need to pass. She's a tough grader but if you just do what is assigned you'll be fine!

Shah was a great professor. I learned ALOT from her class and was a very approachable professor if you were having trouble. I recommend you taking her class because you will feel confident going into medsurg II!

Very good teacher , easy to talk to , doesnt give out her powerpoints which is her only form of notes. Tests are OK , study and you will be fine . Very sweet lady , enjoyed having her . No presentations for this class , minimal homework

She is the best professor I've ever had. Now in upper level courses I can look back and say that Prof Shah gave me a fantastic foundation. Tests are not the easiest but if you read and pay attention and study hard you'll do great. I learned so much and I was well prepared for medsurg. Take her!

Professor Shah is fantastic! I learned so much with her when I took her. I recommend her to everyone. She is such an incredible asset to Molloy College. She truly helps out medsurg professors because her students are so knowledgable after 209. Take her! You must study, you'll learn everything you need to know

Best professor I have ever had. She is so helpful and amazing. Brilliant mind. She changed the entire way I think things through in nursing school. Take her! Must read text and take notes & study study study!!

Had her for clinical. And she is absolutely my idol. She is very helpful. Her class was not easy but she motivated me and was very helpful throughout the semester. Don't take the class if you're going to bs because fundamentals is hard enough because you're learning new things. She's nicest person ever. Everything made sense once I got to medsurge(prof cuff) who btw is another great yet hard teacher.

seems intimidating at first, but is really very sweet. I did not enjoy her class because the tests were difficult. you really need to study but you will know your stuff. Had her for clinical and she was amazing. pre conference was tough but she really tries to help and pushes you to be the best you can be! i loved her

love love love love prof shah. honestly so happy i took her. and loved prof bayawa as a clinical instructor. so happy to have had them for my first clinical experience. felt like i learned a lot and it came naturally.

LOVED prof shah for 209! She is great with this material. however if shes teaching 229 again, RUN. 229- started with about 40 students, there were about 15 that took the final.

LOVE LOVE LOVE! she really has her students in her best interest. HOWEVER. you must study, read the textbook! STUDY STUDY STUDY you will do fine!

She is clear and knowledgeable. The material comes from the textbook. She is a great teacher and gives you what you deserve Get the textbook read the textbook you will not survive without it. If you do not read you fail.

She's really nice despite some of these comments on here. I found her to be very helpful and understanding also. I emailed her about a family issue and she worked with me, so if you have anything going on don't hesitate. She definitely pushes you to do the work and the reading but honestly it's worth it in the end. beware of pop quizzes.

A lot of people have mixed feelings about Professor Shah, but my personal experience was great. I learned so much that's going to help me move on in the nursing program. This class is hard but you need to dedicate a lot of time and effort towards it. Jarvis and Craven will be the books you take around with you for the entire semester. Good luck!

Professor Shah is one of my favorite professors I've had. She may be a hard professor and her tests may seem impossible but if you study you will do fine. She forces you to read and learn how to study so that you do well for the rest of nursing school. She explains things really well and takes the time to explain anything you don't understand.

Shah is a million times smarter than you'll ever know. She is the one to take if you want to walk out of class knowing your stuff. Taking her will help you throughout the program (speaking as a senior who had her for 209). You wont get an NCLEX question on fundamentals wrong after her class. Record lectures, use book. Tough but WORTH IT! TAKE HER!

Its a challenge but you come out knowing a lot and are more prepared for Med Surg afterwards. She's tough but she makes sure you know your stuff so you have to work hard for your grades but its worth the struggle.

Reading both textbooks may seem tedious and long, but you have to do it. I didn't listen when those who told me to solely study the textbook, but i def learned the hard way on that. Buy yourself a good cup of coffee, sit down, take notes and highlight as you read the books. She drops the lowest grade so don't miss class when she has a pop quiz.

She's so smart. You will learn in her class 100%. You may not be getting A's per say, but if you put the work in, develop insight within class, and honestly just study effectively you will do well and most importantly learn!

Yes, 209 is tough. Yes, you will have to read. And Yes, Professor Shah is tough. But Shah is one of the best, most intelligent and respected professors on campus. If you commit yourself to the readings, her tests are very straightforward. If you rely on powerpoints, you will not do as well as you could. I reccomend everyone take her for 209.

Shahs class will help you in every single class and exam. Yes, she is tough. Read the chapters in advance and you will be fine!! She is the BEST professor. You will have to work HARD but trust me it will be worth. Do not study the power points, you WILL fail the test. Read the books and study ATIs. She is amazing, be ready to learn!!

when taking shah there's a few things you need to know. 1. the POP QUIZZES will be on the week before's material. 2. READ THE BOOK!!! you won't pass without reading it, just do it. 3. she is so sweet and is always willing to chat with you about anything. she is tough, but TAKE HER

Taking her for 209 right now, gives very good lectures and is assessible outside of class. I recommend you record her lectures so you can go home and go through them again. Gives clear cut grading. Good choice for 209 but I recommend taking Arnzberg or Osborne for 209.

She gives you pop quizzes but I feel like they definitely help and correlate with the test plus you take them as a group so its easier. You will spend a lot of time reading but its worth it and helps make sure you know what you're doing for lab and it will help you with your understanding for the test. Overall take her you can do it!

Professor Shah is one of the best professors I have had at Molloy. Is her class tough? Yes. Will you have to read? Yes. Will you learn loads of information? Yes. She is caring and will help you out in anyway possible. 209 is hard, as is any nursing class. I feel extremely prepared for 299!! Take her!!

Professor Shah is amazing and truly gives you a great foundation of nursing knowledge. Yes this class is difficult so don't expect to sit in class and pass. You have to work for your grade. READ THE TEXTBOOKS! She does give quizzes but I wouldn't really call them pop quizzes since she gives them every week and they're usually group quizzes.

I really love Prof. Shah. She is very approachable and friendly but her lectures are boring and won't help you pass the test. Her slides won't help you either. If you want to pass you have to read both books, no skimming. I found it to be a self taught class. She will test you on things she never discussed bc she expects you to read read read!

Professor Shah's 209 class is challenging. Reading both textbooks are crucial in order to pass her tests. never looked at her ppts, they don't help. Read the textbook and make sure you follow her syllabus!! don't fall behind on reading, it piles up. Heavy class, but I feel confident in fundamentals.

209 is not easy and Shah doesn't make it easier, BUT her high expectations will end up helping you in the long run. READ BOTH TEXTS and stay on top of it. Tests come from the the readings and some ATI skills mods. Don't bother with the powerpoints. Group "pop quizzes" prepare you for tests. She's sweet and supportive but you'll work for your grade!

Professor Shah is so kind and I'm really happy I am taking her for 459. There are no exams, 1 paper worth 30%, and weekly discussions/assignments. Participation is important!

I am not sure where all these negative reviews are coming from. I may not have gotten the grade I wanted but Prof. Shah makes you think outside the box, more practically and not just regurgitating information from the text like many students expected. She takes the time to go over questions you got wrong you just have to take the initiative first.

Incredible human! You cannot expect to take NUR 2090 and it not be hard. No matter what teacher you have, it is hard content. The class was definitely HARD and exercised my mind. She really cares though and will meet with you anytime . She wants you to pass . There are no bones to be thrown in this class you must READ.

There is an immense amount of material and only so much time. The lecture is combined with graded lab skills assessments that NEED to be completed, a massive amount of ATI/Prep U assignments as well as clinical rotation, is a lot. HOWEVER, she is SO kind & approachable. STUDY hard. Actually READ the Textbook and do practice questions!!!!! a must

I really enjoyed taking Professor Shahs class. You need to thoroughly read the textbook and do all of the assignments and you will be fine. She is approachable and willing to help in office hours as well. 2090 is a tough class, you need to be prepared to work hard to get the grade you want.
