GREAT CLASS EASY A!I took this class for a summer term.He is very helpfull and inteligent.He knows what he is talking about.Just dont miss his class b/c u will miss important information.U might have a little problem with his accent,but it will only takes a few days to get used to it.I got an A is his class. I recomend this class to everyone.
He is a great teacher, very smart! If you really want to learn Biology, take him as your teacher! His tests are a bit tricky but overall he is a great teacher! He should have been a doctor, and if so, then he would have been one of the best doctors!
Can be an easy class if you study very well. Instructor makes the information easy to understand and his accent is not to hard to understand. Make sure you attend lab regularly.
Great teacher!!!! Study and pay attention in class you will make an A.
The teacher makes sure you get the necessary information. DOES NOT GO INTO TOO MUCH DETAIL. You know what to expect on his tests if you study notes and review. Book is helpful but not abs. necessary. Will answer questions after class. Gives extra credit. No research-paper necessary. Tests are tricky (mult. choice, T/F, matching). Highly recomend!
He's great you must study. his test are easy if you follow his review.his lab is kinda hard but the review will safe you this prof is a must take...
Best teacher I have ever had. Very sweet and caring, he actually wants his students to do well. Make sure that you go to class otherwise you will fail. Domt try to take advantage of his kindess either. Hes honestly the best teacher Ive ever had str8 up!
Very helpful, understands that this is not the only class you take and also realizes you have a "life" outside the campus. Takes the time to make sure you understand the information.
He is one of the best teachers i have ever had! he is so awesome, nice and caring! everybody should be fighting to get into his class. SERIOUSLY. all you have to do is pay attention and study hard what he tells you to and you should be fine.
CHASE FOR THIS PROFESSOR IMMEDIATELY. He is wonderful, nice, helpful, cheerful, and knowledgeable. You won't regret going to his class. But you still have to work real hard to earn your grade. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
If you go to class and take notes you will get a n A
Not very clear. Doesn't go with the same powerpoints available online. Hard to understand.
the class it what you make it, if you go to class you will do well if you dont then it will be hard for you, i made a B in the class do well in lab FYI it helps!i didnt buy the text book i dont think you need it personally, his ppt are not the same as the ones online but if you bring a usb drive he will download his ppt on it for you.great teacher
If you want to get into nursing school and learn the material chase for this professor. He is one of the best teachers out there, easy to understand and also very witty : ) go to class and most importantly take notes. He gives extra credit and is willing to help out if you're struggling. Highly recommended. I got an A!!
love his class!
You will not be disappointed! With any A/P class you will had to put effort into, but with Cherakuara he is very reasonable and able to approach.. Take this professor, and you will not be disappointed! I took him for both A/P 1&2 and lab, I made out with a High B without the text!
makes class super interesting he knows his material very good at explaining and makes sure you understand or else he wont continue until the class and him are on the same page, the course is difficult but all you need is his powerpoints and MAKE SURE YOU TAKE NOTES in class and you'll pass you dont need the book but it helps
Amazing professor for A&P I.Not an easy class but I studied his powerpoints alot and made an A. He's a funny guy and makes the class very enjoyable.I did not use the textbook at all, but it does come with a lab manual that is very useful for lab paracticals.Come to glass, study power points= good grade. Must have for A/P I!
Had him for a&p 1 and did pretty well. He posts all the notes online and also posts reviews. Was a pretty good professor, but sometimes it was hard for me to stay focused in class. We had 3 lecture exams, a final, and 3 lab exams. Not too hard so overall I would recommend.
The best A&P professor! If you want the best grade possible, take Cherukara!!Be prepared to study alot.I took him for A&P 1 and 2 and earned an A in each class.A&P2 is much harder than A&P2 but with good study habits an A is entirely possible! Amazing teacher!!!
I was very apprehensive about taking anatomy class but Mr. C made this class very enjoyable and I actually learned alot. If you are a person that is coming back to college after a long time I would definitely tell you to take him for anatomy or any other course. Best science professor I have ever had.
He is a great teacher! I'm currently taking his summer 2 Anatomy class & even though this class is very hard, he really helps you get through it. He provides notes and reviews and will go over material until you understand. I dont think you need the book but it does help you comprehend the material better. I would definitely recommend him!:)
My tip to future students of Mr. Cherukara is to attend the classes because he tells you to make a note of EVERYTHING that will be on the test. If you make a note of those and study what he tells you, you will make an A. He teaches the basics and does not go in to a LOT of detail like Dr.King (my AP1 professor) did.
Amazing teacherrr! He really knows how to teach and is very interesting. Learned a lot of stuff that I was always remember. Go to class cause he tells you what is going to be on the test during lectures. Gives extra credit on some tests and extra credit in the end of the semester! Made an A, he really knows how to teach and is helpful!
He's an amazing professor :) he tries to help you and explains things in terms we can understand his class is not super easy but he'll tell you what you should mainly focus n when it comes to his tests, he's very entertaining but you have to work hard to make an A
awesome
Take his class for anatomy! He's really easy & very helpful. He also explains everything with depth & makes sure the class understands. I enjoyed his class & plan on taking him for future biology classes.
Mr. C is amazing. He explains everything and really cares about his students. There is a reason his classes fill up every semester. I highly recommend taking him!
He is an excellent professor! he's funny and tries to engage the class in lecture. his class is not easy but he will try to make everything clear for you in words you understand make note of stuff he says are going to be on tests and you'll do good :)
I took this class as a hybrid. He was the lab professor and I had a different online instructor of the lecture part. He is straight forward and clear. You will know exactly what to expect. We had one mid-term and one final. He prepares you well and his teaching style was comfortable. Don't just memorize the color of the slides-won't do you any good
Look NO FURTHER. He has to be the best anatomy and physiology teacher EVER. I have made A's in all of his lab practicals and A's and high B's on his lecture exams. He is open to your questions and gives extra credit! Funny and keeps the class excited on topics as well!!
AWESOME class, AWESOME professor. He genuinely cares about A&P and you can see that through his teaching. He is one of those people that just has the charisma to teach! I received an A in his course! HIGHLY recommended!
Great teacher. I had Mr. Cherukara for both A&P labs and Microbiology. Just show up to class/lab and read your textbook and you'll do fine!
I really enjoyed his class and learned a LOT. He's clear, concise, & tells you which areas to focus the most on for tests. He presents complex information in a very understandable and memorable way. His pacing is spot on. You will have to work for an A...tons of memorization, but I couldn't ask for anything more in a teacher!
I enjoyed his class. He is straight forward. Gives out quizzes which shows you what to expect for an upcoming test. Just print PP, take notes and read book. if you do all this you'll do fine.
He is a funny,and smart indian guy. He uses real word examples and repeats himself in order to help us understand clearly. No his accent never had a big effect on my learning. I am not able to take him this semester for A&P 2 but I recommend him for any class you can.
Cherukara is a GREAT professor. I had him for 2401, 2402, & 2420. He makes sure everyone has a thorough understanding of the subject, and is very easy to understand. Tests are based over what he teaches in the class. (no surprises)And to help things out he's a very funny guy. LOL
His A&P class is fun to attend and easy to understand. He makes sure we understand all the material before moving on in the course.
Took him for both A&P 1 and 2. Amazinggg teacher who is really helpful and is clear about his lecture. Print the notes and bring them to class he often tell you to make a note of something if it will be on the test and 9/10 times it is! Take him, I made a A in both classes.
TAKE HIM. He is an amazing teacher that has so much charisma for his job. You will not regret it!!
I absolutely love this teacher. He has a lot of passion in what he does. He knows how to make his students understand what he's talking about. He understands the everyday struggles a student deals with so he's pretty lenient. One of the best teachers I have ever had. If you want to take any bio class take it with him.
Cherukara was one of the best teachers I've ever had. He is not there for the money, he is there to help the students to succeed in future. He I the best in the department. If you want to really learn A&P, take cherukara but if you want an super easy teacher don't take him because you have to listen in class and learn to do good in his class
TBH 100%, he enjoysloves his job which makes lecture 10x better bc he smiles all the time. His lectures are interesting but the class is too long, i get sleepy after 50 minutes. His review has nothing to do with the test, only like 40% of it. You do need your book. He likes to trick and mix up the words of the question so be careful. HIS LABEASY
The best professor for science !!! He makes lectures and labs fun ! You do need to study , you won't pass if you don't study !! I highly recommend anyone who wants to learn and not have a boring teacher take him .
BEST professor I have ever had. print his power points and he goes over them and teaches in a way you can easily understand. Hes clear, gives good examples and repeats to make sure you undestand. Dont miss a class, he tells you whats on his exams. He is an amazing professor. hands down.
I had to take A&P 2 for a second time because the professor I got was really. Cherukara is the best!!! He is so easy to listen to and is test are pretty much from his powerpoints and stuff he emphasizes in class. Few quizzes and he also gives an extra credit towards the end of the semester. If you see him for any other classes, TAKE HIM!!!
I took him for A&P 1, 2 and microbiology. He is best teacher in the whole department for these classes. He is very clear about the things he teach. He is funny and also makes the class interesting. He also helps you a lot when you need help. His test are hard af so you really need to study hard to pass. If you want an A, you have to read the book.
Best teacher in the whole science department. You will never regret taking him. He is really helpful and clear about everything he teaches.
Excellent Instructor. He is the best of the best. He keeps the students stimulated and interested in learning more. If he tells you to mark something it will be on the test believe him. Come to class on time and pay attention and you will do fine. If I had to take A&P 1&2 all over again I certainly would make sure that I would have this professor.
I took Mr. Cherukara for AP 2401, 2402 and Microbiology. He is a wonderful professor. Making an A in his class is very possible, if you as a student put in the effort. Mr. Cherukara drops one lowest quiz grade, gives bonus points (quiz), and also gives an opportunity to write bonus paper to raise final grade. He keeps his lecture interesting.
He's great! Explains things very well, and his lectures are enjoyable.
Awesome professor! Took him for A&P 1 & 2. Explains things very thoroughly! If you're having any trouble, he has no problem helping you and working with you! I recommend him to every one!
Mr. Cherukara is an AMAZING professor! His labs are the best, I've been to other lab instructors and they completely confused me! His lectures can be long, and boring. However, if you print the notes, follow along, and make an effort to read the book before or after lecture your grade will show it! He's not hot, I just want to see the pepper! :)lol
Great teacher!!!! Took for Anatomy I, Anatomy II and Micro
He is an amazing professor he makes sure you understand his lectures clearly his classes fill up in a blink of an eye
hard class
*only took him for lab* He is very engaging and walks around to make sure every student understands all the lab structures. He is very helpful and hilarious! Do NOT skip his lab or you won't pass! Make sure you study extensively for lab practicals, he allows you to come to his other lab classes to study! Overall great prof! Taking him for A&P2!
If you need to take Anatomy, you must take Mr. Cherukara! He has great lectures in both lab and lecture. For his Lecture, study the powerpoints and you'll get an A on both the quizzes and tests. You don't need to buy the textbook. For Lab, I highly recommend buying the lab manual. It will be your best friend when studying for the 3 practicals!
He's such a hilarious guy, I look forward to his lectures!! it is human anatomy so you obviously need to apply yourself and study a lot to obtain a high grade, but he really cares about his students and lets you know he's there for you. gives several test hints so you need to show up to class and listen. clear grading criteria. awesome teacher!
Perfect teaching. Pay attention to his lectures and study his PowerPoint and this will be an easy way to get 'A' in his class.
He makes sure all his students understand material, but his test questions can be a little tricky. His lectures involve A LOT of material (100+ slides.) Make sure you read the textbook thouroughly, and take advantage of all the materials he provides you. His labs are amazing, he walks around the room showing each student. Overall great prof.
I took Mr. Cherukara for both A&P lab and lecture. He is very friendly and accessible outside of class. His lab is easy (as easy as a lab can be), as he goes through the material thoroughly and clarifies any questions. Lectures are heavy in A&P lecture (obv), but he will make sure you get help if needed. The class is hard, but great instructor
he is an amazing teacher in a sense where he explains everything to where it's easily understood and really cares for his students, he's not there for the money. lab was easy however i found his lecture to be very difficult, tests over small details in the book. i studied the textbook almost every single day and just barely made an A in the class.
Take this Professor! I took this A&P course during Summer I, and the course load was DAUNTING; but Prof. Cherukara made the class very easy. He goes into great detail in the labs and lecture and tells you what's going to be on his tests. I would highly recommend him.
He is a great teacher, however, that does not mean he is easy. It is very possible to make an A in his class, but you MUST read from your textbook about 3-5 hours a day, at least. He is funny, caring, and shows "tough love" to all his students. You will learn a lot and you will have to work hard for an A in any of his classes, guaranteed.
Few weeks in his class and am already into the course. A & P is diffcult on its own but he made it fun & easy. He explains thoroughly with concise examples. He is a GEM, knows his stuff & ensure student get along both in class & lab. DO NOT SKIP CLASS, DO NOT BE BUSY WITH PHONE, DO NOT FAIL TO NOTE HIS POINTS, hence you wont do good in the class.
he is the best prof at wcjc! i took him for both A&P 1 and 2. his lectures are lengthy but he tells you what you need to focus on for the test. his quizzes and test are pretty straight forward and his labs are also very easy! try to get him asap! his classes fill up very fast. he's also super funny and makes lectures less painful to sit through.
Hands down!!!! He sure know his stuff, very knowledgeable, give advice on how to succeed in life. Encourage students to thrive better, Give extra credit and carry all student along both in lab and class. Teaches in depth and go slowly over materials. Gives hint for tests and exams from powerpoint. study the powerpoints and get at least B or C
He is a good professor and he knows what he is talking about. You really have to work for your grade. The effort you put in is the grade you will receive.
One of the best teachers at wcjc!! He makes anatomy fun and will make sure you understand the content. It is a+p so it has a certain level of difficulty, but as long as you put in the time to study you will pass. He is a very sweet man who wants to see his students succeed. I highly recommend taking him!
Best of the best ! I highly appreciate this professors skill set and immense amount of knowledge he holds! I will recommend him for AP courses and any other subjects which he may teach! Bravo! Excellent! Always have fun in his AP class and fun jokes he comes out !
This guy is so smart and also cares a lot about his students. Makes information easy to understand and goes over it multiple times in order for you to understand. Don't ever be on your phone in his class, he hates that, and you might miss something important. LOVED him, his jokes, and his class.
I liked Professor Cherukara for A&P 1 better than A&P 2. We had more extra-credit, especially on the quizzes. The first test was exceptionally hard, it was supposed to cover 4 chapters, but only one chapter was emphasized on the test. Also, I wish he would announce quizzes earlier. I love Professor Cherukara but I'm not loving A&P 2.
Study Powerpoint notes for exams and make an easy A. For the lab, just study his lab handouts. Took his class for ANP 1, ANP 2, and Microbiology.
His exams and quizzes are way more harder than AP1. And he gives quizzes at the end of the class after he is done with the lecture. This actually affects our grades because if we pay attention during the lecture we forget the quiz material. It's really tough to get an A in his AP2 class.
I had him for microbiology and now I am in A&P 2 with him, I will not say this class is an easy A you do have to study however, if you study the powerpoints he goes over in class you will do amazing!! Labs are easy and at the end of the semester he gives you the opportunity to do extra credit. 10/10 recommend!
Had Mr. C since Spring '17 for AP 1 but dropped the first time. I retook him again Fall 2017 & ended up with a B. Spring '18 for AP 2, I am not doing well but do believe I could at least get a C. Didn't know why he started doing the quiz late & why he put old info on second exam. Was unfair. I'm thinking about Gadkari (lec) and him for lab now.
After taking Professor Cherukara for both A&P 1 & 2, I'm not really sure how I feel. I think he is a wonderful lecturer who truly knows the information. However, this semester left much to be desired. The exams were unnecessarily difficult and wasn't reflective of the information I learned. We were not given as much extra credit as he gave in A&P 1
A&P is obviously a very hard class. Professor C made lab very easy and he repeats himself so we understand the material. The lecture however was very difficult. A lot of studying is needed. He also gives 6 quizzes and drops 1. I didn't use the book since the power points are helpful. I recommend taking him, he's very funny and nice :)
Mr. C is my favorite teacher, took him for both AP1 and AP2 and made A+ gives 6 quizzes, 4 lec exams, 1 final and an extra credit paper. make sure you do not miss class as he tells whats gonna be on the exams in class. do the extra credit, it will help your final average. just study the powerpoints and lab manuals and you will be glad you took him
real gem and really nice. acknowledge how stressful college is and makes sure he come down to our level by citing related examples for everything. Took him for ap1 and , I wish I take him for micro. I sure will miss his class because of his advise. I like his personality and he is pretty straightforward in class. make a note of whatever he tells U
If you want his class, register at midnight because it fills up before MORNING (7AM). Do not bother to buy textbook or lab manual, he has his own modified powerpoints and manual. Do not focus on your phone in class because you will miss out important info. do his extra credit, it will help bring up your final average (say 77 to 80). TAKE HIM
He is a really passionate professor for anatomy. I took his lecture and lab, both had contents to study. But with the help of his lecture notes and power points I got an A. You will not regret his class even if you accidentally take him.
Mr. Johnson tries his best to make his lessons relatable. He always says you don't have to come to class but you'll do better if you do. I had the textbook and it helped somewhat, but listen to his lectures and focus on his PowerPoints.
This is the lab instructor you want. Class fills up fast because he's that good. Hes VERY clear and literally walks the class holding models pointing out the tiniest vein or nerve, making sure every person sees what he talking about. Take him you wont regret it.
The best science teacher by far. His class does fill up super fast so you have to watch for class opening schedules. Everything on his tests are from the powerpoints.
I have taken him for A&P 1 and Microbiology. He is great!! Teaches you exactly what you need to know to pass his test. He doesn't sugar coat anything. He talks to you like your important and not just as a student. He truly cares if you pass or not but you must do your work to pass.
I took Professor Cherukara for A&P 1 Lab, it was so easy. There is quiz every week, which helps you a lot for the exams. No homework. Easyyyyyyy 'A'.
His lab class is easy but that is because you are teaching yourself. His lecture class is awful. The first quiz we had was over chapter 1 and consisted of over 100 slides while the quiz was only 15 questions. His tests are a joke. None of the material you study is on there and his wording is rubbish at best. I urge any student to LOOK ELSEWHERE!
If you miss one lecture he will call you out for it. Tests are very in depth and do not even attempt the reviews because they do not correlate with the test AT ALL. He made me feel dumb because I messed up a lab practical and he told me I should've done better because of how easy it was, when it wasn't and I studied for 9 hours. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!
Professor Cherukara is so caring and so helpful. His lab was so easy. There are quizzes every week which is so helpful for the lab practical's. He teach so clearly and makes it so easy to understand. I would definitely take him again.
Heavy accent distracted me but I had some helpful friends, he will zoom by the notes too quick. Doesnt slow down for some students because he doesnt wanna go over it again. He gives great examples but theyre very odd. Tells you to stop writing and listen. (First exam average was a 66 and he curves it by so little.)
Mr. C is one of the best teachers I have taken! He is very specific on what content he tests on during his lectures and his labs. He cares and is always willing to help when you need it. He gives quizzes, but he always gives you a heads up when it is, and he gives extra credit at the end of the semester. He also curves as well. I recommend!
I rarely used his textbook but I recommend it for anyone who hates science and needs time understanding it. His lectures are half writing notes and half paying attention cause he tries to make it as clear as possible. Pretty cool and if youre great at science itll be easy to pass his class. If not then just try and read through ppts and textbook.
I took him for micro and he's hands down the best and easiest for lab. His lecture is hard, but if you work hard and show him that, he'll do what he can to get you that A. He won't let you get a B if you had one bad test. He's amazing and truly cares about his students.
Mr. Cherukara is a wonderful professor, very sympathetic towards his students and loves to respect all his students. However, his tests are extremely difficult. Most of the time his test average which he tells us are in the 60's-70's range. If you dont write down notes from his lectures (from what he directly says), then its hard to pass his class.
Of you need help, just ask and hell tell you exactly what you need to know. he is probably the best professor ive had at wcjc! he makes anatomy fun & very interesting and i cant wait to take him again
Will not reply to Blackboard messages because I said I wont even tho he NEVER said that during syllabus week. If you are not coming straight from high school this is a tough course. Goes through lectures too fast, says you should know this from your Biology class and skips over things when this is the first Bio class you take for nursing.
I am not even halfway through the semester and this class is hard. No review, 1 attempt on quizzes, lockdown needed on test and quiz. His answers to email are so vague it's not helpful. Make sure you get a group of classmates together and try to study together. Other profs give exam reviews and 2 attempts on quizzes (no lockdown) while he doesn't.
Maybe face2face he is amazing but in online he sucks. And! No backtracking on exams!! Meaning this class did not allow us to go back and check our answers. Use lockdown. Quizzes are pretty difficult, 100+ slides to study only 10 Qs only 1 attempt. Exams are pretty tough. No review for exams. This is a very strenuous class and he doesnt help much
Took him for an online lab course. Pretty straight forward, 3 lab practical exams (match the picture with the body part). Only thing is you have 15 minutes for 25 questions. Not too bad, but a little rushing. Otherwise, study the given quilts (direct questions from the practical tests) and you'll do just fine.
Taking this class for micro and this is one of the top 3 hardest classes I have ever taken. I was recommended this prof for face2face I guess online just isnt the same. Extremely vague email responses & 3+ hours of lecture per chapter. Tests are hard quizzes are hard and over minuscule details. Super heavy work load Dont recommend this professor
He makes his class unnecessarily hard nad his PowerPoints are so long. His test was miserably hard and he give no review for them. Worst professor I had.
One of the greatest professors you’d ever take. He is gives good examples to make ideas more clear, helpful, and all his exams are lecture based. STUDY and you will definitely do good. He gives extra credits and very sweet! Also textbooks are not needed but still helpful and attendance is not mandatory but is needed to have a good grade!
I recommend taking him in person. He gives lots of extra points on every quiz and test which can bump you up from a low grade to a higher grade. He is very nice and caring. He tells you what to focus on so it is easier to study and those exact questions show up on the test. Definitely take him!
*both lecture and lab* amazing teacher. the class is more enjoyable if you participate. info is all laid out for you. the only downside of this class is that it's a lot to take in, but that's just anatomy; not hard, just a LOT of information. quizzes are 10-15 qs, tests 50+. will curve grades, but dont expect it to carry you. Study
Amazing professor and a fun lab. He takes his time with his class to ensure everyone understands the material being taught. His practicals are very easy if you study and he usually offers 2 extra bonus questions for all his practicals. He is interactive with his students and offers a variety of study aids.
Now he is a good man, no denying that and frankly that is not enough. He has 130 slides per chapter to take a 15-question quiz. I find that absolutely ridiculous. He loves this class and gives extra credit and bonus points but i SIMPLY CANNOT learn 300+ slides for an 80-question test. But like i said he is a good teacher and loves the course.
Mr. Cherukara is by far the best professor I have had in my last 2 years of college. I am so glad I picked him to be my A&P Professor because he has an amazing teaching style and gives hints on what may be on the lecture and lab exams. I sure am going to miss his class and sure wish he could be my teacher for every other class. Take him!! :)
Professor Cherukara is an easy professor for A&P! His visual aids and thorough topic reviews make learning A&P easy. Plus, there are plenty of chances to improve grades. Occasionally, he revisits certain topics to get your memory jogging which I found helpful. He also gives you plenty of hints for what would be asked on a test or a quiz.
If you like stress take him. If you like 200 slides for 10 question quiz take him. NO REVIEW! But very visual examples which makes him a good teacher.
I liked him as a professor! The lectures were sometimes hard to get through but he has it all posted on brightspace. Very understanding and gave hints on tests & quizzes (curves everything) A LOT of studying but does not make study guides.
This professor has a unique teaching style, but if you engage with it, you can succeed. Attend class, use the textbook, and try Unstuck AI for study prep. Challenging, but worth it.
I truly dont know how he has as high of a rating as he does. Sure the course is already material-heavy and based on memorization but there is absolutely NO NEED to make each chapter 100+ slides; making each unit equal to 200-300 slides to review. it's unrealistic to be able to retain 100 slides merely for a 15Q quiz let alone 300 for lecture exams.
this is an update per my last rating-unit 2 has 400 slides. save yourself.
He loves what he does but his power points are WAY TOO BIG. 400+ slides on a test is Insane even if we have a lot to cover and he doesnt have test reviews. The quizez arent hard if you listen well but the tests take way to much time to succed in. Lab was simple and fun with him but i would never take his lecture again.Take a professor with reviews
He is a great professor and loves what he teaches. However, his PowerPoint are large and paying attention is necessary to succeed. He is willing to help if you need extra help and overall, a&p2 wasn't insanely difficult with him. He has all the resources you will need online. Just make sure to LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAYS WILL BE ON THE TEST. Take him!!
I took Mr. Cherukara for A&P 1 and 2. He is very funny and I really enjoyed his class. You must study hard and put in the work to succeed in this class. He emphasizes the info that will be on quizzes and exams but there are no study guides. You can tell he wants his students to succeed. I will miss his class.
I have always wanted to work in the medical field so taking A&P was a must. This man made me hate my passion. I studied for days sometimes and never seemed to pass anything. Thanks to him I will be changing my major. He would have examples that's would make me very uncomfortable. And his lecture was a drag to get through. Enjoyed his lab.
I took Cherukara for A&P 1 and 2, and he was a nice professor! It's a very lecture heavy class with a lot of info but it's doable if you study! He gives hints on what's going to be on assignments & curves everything. At the end of the semester theres an extra cred. assignment worth 2%.He knows it's a hard class and you can tell he wants you to pass
The tests are not hard but there's a lot of material to cover. There's a lot of reading and studying that you have to do if you want a good grade, but he will make sure to let you know what will be on the test so it's easy to figure out where to put the effort and what isn't as important. Also make sure you're on time for his class!
Class is kind of hard, but what do you expect? It's A&P, of course, it will be. He curves most of the tests, and if you focus in class, you'll understand. He has online resources for you to use if you don't understand something. He also tells you what you're gonna be quizzed on, and he gives really good examples in lecture. Just prepare to study
Although A&P is a lot of material, he is able to simplify difficult concepts! He offers helpful resources in order to ensure the success of his students, and I am excited to take him next semester! He combines captivating lectures and good analogies for your benefit! Also, he's really generous about grading. Tests/quizzes are very straightforward!
