The class was hard. The lectures were filled with alot of things not related to A&P, he fliped floped back and forward from A&P to his own personal life, which made it more difficult to understand what he was talking about. In Lab you are on your own. Overall as long as you get a study partner or SI to help you, you should be able to pass.

This is the worse class I've taken here at OCC! This class is test heavy. Professor does not give out any assignments that can potentially help your grade. Lectures are fairly short and uninteresting. This class is strictly lecture videos every week and exams every other week. I would not recommend. This class is not my learning style.

This professor is amazing!! His lectures are very interesting to watch. He posts outlines for lectures and labs that help tremendously. Have never been an A student in BIO's until I took him. Definitely knows his stuff and how to teach. He has 8 tests, 4 lab, 4 lectures. If you watch his videos and study this should NOT be a problem.

Took his class online. No assignments, only tests and labs. Mainly labs tests and lecture tests. Not flexible during pandemic like other professors. Difficult for no clear reason. Saw the other ratings and thought he was a good guy. NOPE.

Skip class? You won't pass.

Take him as a last resort. If this class was in person I definitely would have dropped it solely because I cannot stand to hear him talk, I felt that his lectures were very long and drawn out. He makes A&P harder by only having exams, there is no wiggle room to boost your grade and theres really no other way to learn the material aside from lecture

Great professor! Dont skip, you wont pass. Honestly his teaching style isn't for everyone, but if you like "colorful" examples and a teaching style that requires practical application, this is your guy. Loved the class. Taking A&P 2 with him as well.

Mr. Eichold, in my opinion is an amazing instructor. He knows his stuff and willing to help those who help themselves. I believe he prepares you for a program beyond his class. There are no shortcuts, you have to study. There is no excuse he gives lots of visual aids. If your serious about your future medical career take Jeff Eichold.

the class is hard so keep that in mind. Make sure you read the syllabus before asking him questions! He challenges you to learn in different ways, he has standard scantron tests, written and verbal. He is also fair, if he sees you're really trying and improving he'll work with you to get the best grade you can

Uncle Jeff is the best AP professor to me. I learned so much from him. He made hard things easier to understand. I love his lectures. He provides good and helpful lecture outlines. If you memorize them all, you should get A. I definitely recommend him~

Professor Eichold is my favorite proffesor I've had at OCC. I am NOT a science person, but I got an A in A&P 1 and 2 with him. His lectures are clear and he tells you EXACTLY what to study to do well on his exams. If you truly study what he tells you to, you will do well. He is very caring and he genuinely wants his students to succeed!

Uncle Jeff is a professor that knows his material! He puts everything in relatable terms and teaches for all learners. He does not give out busy work. Course is strictly based on exams and quizzes; he drops 1 of the lowest scores. He gives very detailed lecture outlines. Study/memorize and you will pass. Do NOT miss class

I took him for A&P 1 and took him again for 2. He is my favorite. He cares a lot about his students, very personable. Has clear grading criteria, he may seem tough but it's cause he wants all his students to succeed. If he sees you care and are putting in effort he will go the extra mile to help you. Would definitely recommend him!

Professor Eichold wants all of his students to succeed and he sets them up for success. Not only does he provide multiple resources online such as previous lab/ lecture videos and images, but he teaches for all different learning styles. He is extremely professional and deeply cares about his students. He is an amazing professor.

This class is only tests, it's helpful for people that don't have homework time, but you need to have study time. The class can be hard, Mr. Eichold makes it as easy to succeed as possible. I would recommend anyone serious about their program taking his class. His sense of humor can be off key, but if you lean into it the stories help you learn.

Mr. Eichold is an amazing teacher! He wants all of his students to pass & understand what he is teaching. I took him for A&P I and got an A after taking it 2 times previously with a different teacher. He explains things very thoroughly and connects stories from his life to what we are learning. I highly recommend taking Uncle Jeff for A&P I and II!

Take this professor with caution. He has not assigned or graded a single assignment all semester, only tests. The tests are extremely difficult and he is very picky when it comes to the written definitions. Lab portion is required, but never taught in lab, only gave us models to look at with the online materials. I would not recommend, personally.

He talks so much about useless stuff and the exams are very long. Only grades u get is from exams. The lab exams are pretty easy but the lecture exams are awful.

I enjoyed his lectures and labs. He will tell you the style and coverage of the exam but its on you if you want to pass. All his lecture exams are all in his lecture outlines if you listen and study there shouldn't be a problem passing this class. Overall he is by far the best teacher I've ever had. Highly Recommended.

The professor is knowledgeable but very picky about the written portion of exams. He requires your name, attendance number, and class section on each page of a five-page exam, and deducts points if not done exactly. Very excessive. He's also quite temperamental, which sometimes can feel personal. The good news, he is retiring this year.

Professor Eichold is challenging but fair - stay engaged, use the free textbook, and try Unstuck ai for study prep. He cares about student success.
