Great with providing the material you need for the class. We did not have to purchase a text book nor lab manual. But he is unfair and shows favortism to the student who are taking the class and the lab with him. The other students are giving a hard time while he helps the students that are in the class with him. UNFAIR.

This is the first time I am taking the class with him, but I do not like the way he uses to evaluate in class becuase I believe that I am in pre-kinder. He is not good explaining things and when you have a wrong answer in a question that he asked you, he passes the question and never explain to you why this was wrong.

Pf. Sainz is an excellent professor. I learned a lot in his Lab class. If you really want to learn take him. He encourage us to learn because he gives a lot of chances to recover, so if you have F in a test you can study harder and then in his office hours you can try again until you get and A.

This proffessor is incredibly helpful. Anyone who doesn't get an A is simply lazy. He will help you during his office hours, days off and even gives out his cell so you can ask him if you are still uncertain about something.

He is extremely interested in opening up the world of biology. He reinforces that when ever a student tries to go against the grain and then he will take a time out to remind you of his purpose which is to teach you what he loves most in life and that he has taught science for 45 years. I belive that is what he will do until he dies.

Prof. Sainz is an Excellent teacher. He truly cares for his students and wants every one to pass with an A. However you have to put in the effort. He is very repetitive which helps in remembering key terms. My advise make sure to attend his office hours to get an extra understanding of the lectures.

Theres only a Midterm and Final, but participating enough can get you exonerated from them. Participation is 50 points, and you gain those points by answering questions in class. If you exceed that and get enough before the exam, you can immediately get 100% on it and he can curve your grade if youre just under the next letter-grade requirement.

Dont take this class he tells you to study but when you get to class hes on another chapter thats he didnt even give you. Not well organized its a lot of self taught if your serious about Anatomy. P.S the makeup exams are a joke straight oral questions so it could be anything even from the beginning of the semester.

Hes honestly one of the nicest people Ive ever met and if you get to know him he has a heart of gold. His lectures can be all over then place but if you go to lab hours he ask any questions you have and he takes the time to do make up quizzes. Hes a great professor if you actually study rather than rely on a topical study guide.

Professor Sainz is a great professor. Whoever left bad reviews is probably just mad that they didnt study and received the grade that they deserved. As long as you study the questions that he gives you on a flash drive, you are guaranteed to pass. If you want to learn, take him.

His study guide is a long glossary but as long as you study you can easily pass. He give makeup exams and free extended lab hours to review anything you didnt understand in class. Hes passionate about his job and can her upset if he thinks your taking his class a joke but overall I highly recommend because he really cares for students

Excellent professor, very passionate about teaching. Gives many opportunities for you to participate and always gives make-up exams if you want to improve your grades. You must come to class prepared by reading the material in advance if you do this, you will pass. He is committed to teaching and is always available to answer questions.

Awful or poor reviews for professor Sainz are not true. YOU NEED TO READ READ AND READ. If you dont READ you will FAIL any class . Not easy to get an A because you need to study hard he gives you all the lectures save on a USB, you need to participate in class and yes attendance is MANDATORY. If you fail is because you didnt open the book!!!�

Professor Sainz is very knowledgeable and you will learn many new things. Anatomy comes with a lot of information so studying and testing is a must. Exams are hard but if you study you will pass. He also gives you extra credit and chances to makeup your grade on an exam.

Professor Sainz, cares about his students, he would always find a way to help you, he has office hours, he grades fairly. Oral exams. If you study, take notes and pay attention in class, you will pass, he asks what he talks about in class. He is really smart. Around 54 years of teaching. Amazing professor.

He is one of the best professors at MDC. If you need to understand something he will explain it many times if you need too. He has been teaching for many years so he has a lot of knowlege of what he is teaching. He's one of the few hands-on professors so he shows you everything and everything is on the glossary he sends. I truly recommend.

Professor Sainz is a very intelligent person. He gives you opportunities to bring up your grade and if you don't understand something he will explain it to you and repeat it over and over. He cares for his students and wants all his students to pass he send a glossary for the exam as long as you study everything that on the glossary, you will pass.

Professor Sainz is one of the most knowledgeable professors Ive had the honor to have. As long as you pay attention in class and study the glossary he sends before giving the exams, you will pass. He is very patient and if he needs to repeat something 1000000 times so you can understand, he will. I actually learned in his class. Thank you Prof. S!

Professor Sainz is a great professor, but the class is not an easy A. You will not pass the class if you only try to memorize the material. The material has to be LEARNED. He is very clear about what he expects and he is very professional. I recommend taking his class in order to create good study habits and a knowledgeable foundation of A&P.

This professor was one of the most difficult professors i have ever taken a class with. The book "required" for this course was not used once. He spends all class period speaking as if it is a lecture class and expects you to remember 300+ words for every exam. There is no homework grades! Only 4 Exam grades and Another grade for microscopic evals.

One of the best professors, has almost 60 years of teaching. All the bad reviews are not true, if you dont pass his class its because u dont try. He stays after class and helps you study. All his lectures are based on his exams, if you need more study time he will let you stop the exam and finished it during his office hours. Repeats all material

Professor Sainz is by far the best professor I have ever had. He stays around his work hours to help his students succeed. His lectures don't get boring and often engages students to participate and therefore encourages learning. He gives many chances to pass and makes it easy to.

Professor sainz teaching methods are very helpful in learning a lot about anatomy. You wont pass if you don't study and pay attention in class. He is very fair, he wants you to learn and pass so during his exams if he sees you struggling he will let you go home study the topics more then come back to finish the exams during office hours.

Having professor Sainz for two semester in a row, I had the opportunity to learn in details almost everything about A&P. Great professor and person at the same time. Easy written and oral test, as long as you study at least for 1 hour a day you will get an A in the class. He really prepares you for the next level

I'm a returning college student and had no foundational knowledge of Anatomy. I would highly recommend this professor. Attendance mandatory. 2 quizzes, 2 exams. Study. He makes himself available to his students. If you show up and put in some effort, you'll pass with a good grade.

I will not take away anything from him having to do with the knowledge of the material but as a teacher he is NOT good. ALL THE TESTS ARE ORAL. I passed all of my tests failed the final and failed the class. I passed the lecture with a B+ .. that should tell you everything. btw 3-4 other students failed that class with me as well. don't take him.
