Class was hard, but she was fair. If you don't know the info, you won't do well. SG helped, but you need to know how to APPLY the info. Her ?'s are clear, but specific. Not hard IF you study. Lab is 60%, so go to ALL OPEN LABS. She can only do so much with 250 students, but super helpful in office. Do ALL EC offered, and study. You'll get the grade

This class is intense no matter who's teaching it but at least she isn't the antichrist like Debban. If u can't get in at a jc, I definitely recommend u takin it with chooljian. Take advantage of the e.c. Very nice lady and although she may be a little unclear in class, she is very helpful. She knows what its like to be a student.

THIS class is very difficult no matter what professor you take. Mrs. Choolijan is very awesome all the way around and she works very hard and knows her stuff. You better work hard or you will sink. I recommend her class because she taught me to breathe and I feel very prepared for the medical fieldShe is a great remodel and inspiration=)

Karen is a fantastic teacher! I had her for bio 65 as well. Biology is a hard topic in general, especially when it comes to anatomy and physiology. Your grade does reflect on how much time and effort you put in. She is also very generous and does not trick you with her questions! Study and read the book, and you will be fine!

Very approachable. Definitely knows her stuff. She's a nurse by trade and married to a doctor so most of the information is clinically based. Lab is most of your grade so get a good lab TA possible Chooljian

HARD class, but VERY possible to get a B or even an A. there is 100 points in extra credit, and curbs on most tests. I had her in anatomy and phys, she is a nice person, and very helpful in office hours, willing to help student out when they are having trouble, just study a lot, go over book, notes, record the lectures,go to SI, you CAN get an A!

She's very knowledgeable and helpful. You must put in the work to learn the material. Tests are fair, I RECOMMEND study groups!! Attend all meetings if possible to stay updated. Read book before class and study after. Also do Mastering A&P it helps and she gives EC for it that will def. help! I passed every test w/ B, got an 89.95%=B :(

This class is very difficult, however if you are serious about this class and put in the time to study, you should do extremely well. If you do not put the time in, you will not do well in this class. Her grading is fair, and she is very helpful if you go to her office hours.

This class is hard so be prepared to work. There is a lot to memorize but she does a good job with lectures and labs. If you put in a ton of time it is possible to do well. You just MUST be prepared to sleep breathe and eat anatomy for the entire semester. Could have worked a little harder and I got a high B.

Students complain she crams and doesn't explain things well, but that's not true. It's because they don't read so when they come to her lecture they don't have a clue. Record and listened to her lecture after you read the book, it makes total sense. It's impossible not to cram because there's so much to cover. She takes studying to another level.

Snatch EVERY POINT POSSIBLE (900/1000 = A)! 110 POSSIBLE EC points (Mastering A&P + Lab WS), which are necessary to make up for the points lost on the difficult practicals. EXTREMELY knowledgeable. The AMOUNT OF MATERIAL makes it difficult-not Chooljian. In fact her exams could have been WAY harder. Extremely doable to get an A, you just gotta work

It's a tough class but definitely passable. She gives tons of EC to boost your grade. I had a D in the beginning of the semester and I passed with a 98. Office hours help alot. Attend SI. Do every online homework, it counts. Spend the lab time studying models and make use of any open labs. Get help from wherever you can before it's too late.

I thought this class was easy. It's not like anatomy where you just memorize stuff. You have to make connections and once you do, the information sticks and makes sense. Go to the SI sessions, they help.

Chooljian is incredibly knowledgeable, willing to help, and fair in her expectations. This class will likely be your focal point for the semester due to the amount of content. She gives open labs on weekends, study guides online, and does not take herself too seriously. Expectations are high, but she is upbeat and believes in her students abilities

The first day of class was packed. By half way through the semester only about 100 people were in that giant lecture hall. To anybody planning on taking this class, MAKE SURE YOU DOUBLE CHECK WITH YOU MAJOR ADVISOR BEFORE YOU REGISTER. It is so hard to get into and a lot of people are either scared away or don't need it. This teacher is amazing.

I have taken anatomy and physiology with chooljian and she is an awesome professor who knows her stuff. She seems scary at the beginning, however if you are not dedicated to her class 150% than it is hard. I highly recommend going to S.I. every chance you get because ray is awesome and tells you exactly what to study and also FORM STUDY GROUPS!!

This class is one of the hardest classes at state. I walked out learning more than I EVER have in a class. If you expect not to study for hours you will not pass. I have seen people try their hardest and still only end up with a B or C. Chooljian is amazing. But you won't learn this stuff only by going to lecture. You have to study! Amazing class:)

Dr. Chooljian is awesome, just get to know her. Go into her office hours and make the effort to stay with the pace of the lectures. Go to SI sessions, for me it was the opposite. They do help.

Tests are easy if you study, I made sure to read every chapter when I had the time to . Don't worry about what others have said. LISTEN IF U TRUELY STUDY IN THIS CLASS, THEN IT WILL BE AN EASY B at least. If you want that A study study study !! USE YOUTUBE to reinforce the subjects they help! take it as a challenge. hello med school isn't easy!!!!

This is college, so expect courses like these to be very in-depth and challenging. Getting an A is attainable but you really need to dedicate all your time studying and memorizing the bones, muscles, etc for the lab exams and the lecture tests. Record the lectures, go to SI, study study study! Chooljian is more than willing to help if you ask her.

Very conceptual and very overwhelming, physiology is definitely NOT an easy course. Study everyday and go to SI, they're CRUCIAL to passing this class. There are 4 lecture tests and 4 lab exams, 1 final, and 1 case study. Chooljian makes you work for your grade but I found that to be very rewarding since it's prepared me for future classes.

Hardest classes I have ever taken but if you dedicate your full time and effort into studying the material it is passable.

It's Physiology, it is never easy. Get into a study group ASAP, be sure to read ahead of lectures and go to her office if you have questions. She may seem intimidating, but she will make time to help you if you ask for it. She wants you to succeed, don't wait to ask for help. Record lectures. Take lots of Notes. Don't skip. Be dedicated.

Make sure to be on top of the material and study everyday. This class was intimidating, but don't let it get to you. Just make sure you are constantly referring to your notes and listen to the lectures! It's a hard class, but just talk through the topics and keep an open mind when studying. Just put in the hard work and it will pay off. Good Luck!

A&P in general will take a lot of time and effort but just take it day by day and it really will pay off!! Chooljian is there for you and really does her best for you, if you give your best. Getting an A is very attainable, just don't see the course as a burden, and really be interested in learning because it will all come together and make sense!

Professor Chooljian is amazing!! Definitely not an easy course but WORTH IT! It's really not as hard as people say, I didn't even use the textbook. RECORD LECTURES. Print out the pwrpt. outlines and take notes on that as she lectures. Study by reviewing slides & lecture. & VISIT HER OFFICE HOURS if you have any questions!! She's helpful! Got an A!!

This is one the hardest classes you will take at fresno state. You have to work hard to earn your grade, and you must study a lot if you want to pass this class. Its definitely stressful, you will not pass lab if you do not study. Take a lot of pictures of the structures & MOST IMPORTANT: go to lecture, do the extra credit homework, and study smart

Go to class & Record lectures. Review the PowerPoints before class. Use her lecture exam study guide to test yourself wht u kno. Use lab time to look over the models, and take pictures. Look over the interactive ppts she puts on bb, those are helpful. Don't miss out on any extra credit opportunity & hw. Don't let studying with someone hold u back.

This class is difficult, and if you think you'll get away with not studying, you are wrong! Chooligan is a great person, but her class is just hard. She is so passionate, however, and I enjoy that. GO TO SI! Its hard to keep up with her in lecture, way too fast no chance to even really ask questions. It's really up to you. But i learned soooo much

Dr. Chooljian is a great professor! Her class is HARD, but doable. You have to be serious about your major to do well in this class. There's a lot of homework, but it's fairly easy & gives you more chances to earn points. Also lots of opportunity for extra credit. There's 4 exams in lecture & 4 in lab (finals included).

a very difficult class she tries her best to teach it, but it is just a hard topic with lots of information. studying is a must and will not pass without it. do ALL the hw because it will make a huge difference in the end. she gives extra credit and might curve some tests, but do not expect as much leniency as 67a

The Course is hard, but she tells you what to expect from the class. A lot of HW and studying. She does her best to help the class pass, but the material is hard to explain so its a lot of self-teaching. HW gives you unlimited chances to get 100%, but in my opinion Lec was the easier one compared to Lab. Lab is super difficult so study study stud

The class is Very difficult! Good class if you study on your own very well. Lectures are review. Labs are okay but just study everyday. I suggest not taking this course with other difficult classes. Test are worth alot of points. Studying is a must. keep up with the reading and review powerpoints. Take advantage of extra credit.

Here's your guide to passing: DO the Mastering A&P homework, it's 60 points EC! That's ALOT! Study with the Mastering A&P study quizzes/tests. Her study guides are NOT helpful. Lab quizzes are basically the pictures pulled from her lecture powerpoints. SHOW UP TO CLASS, she gives EC randomly. You HAVE to study, but she curves ALOT. You'll pass.

Dr. Chooljian is a tough, but great professor! I highly respect her. She really does care about her student's success. Do ALL the homework & extra credit. Do her study guides a week in advance and use them to study. 4 exams, 1 final, 2 lab exams. GO TO CLASS. It's a hard class, but her expectations are realistic & it's possible pass.

Tough teacher but you learn a lot from her as she sets her standard high. Study and do all the work that you need to and you will be fine. She goes fast but she has to, to get through all the material. She definitely grows on you especially if you have her for both semesters. Much respect to her now that I'm done w/ 67A & 67B.

Chooljian's a great professor! Her lectures are clear and intersting. As long as you study her PDFs, you should be fine. Dedicate 2-3 hours/day studying and you will do great in this class. Lab was def harder, so study study! Use her online PDFs, interactive ppts, (don't read the textbook). TONS OF EXTRA CREDIT OPPORTUNITY.

Tough class! She gives many opportunities that will help you. My advice is to try your best all the time and study!!! This class can be scary but can also be very interesting!

Excellent teacher, touch course. You will need a study group and I definitely recommend attending SI sessions. The course is heavily based on anatomy and the majority of your grade comes from your lab. Don't be afraid to ask questions, she's intimidating, but she truly cares for her students.

Tough course, but you have a variety of people more than willing to help. She moves through her lectures fast, but she offers outlines of everything she goes over. If you are taking this course you must have taken 67 A so be prepared to incorporate what you learned from A into B. Go to her office hours, tutors and don't be afraid to ask questions.

The course is dense but prepares you very well for medical school. Her lectures are fast-paced, but that's only because there is lots of material that needs to be covered. She's truly inspirational and is well respected. Study and use your resources.

Chooljian's class is full of a lot of information but if you really do the study guides and pays attention to the main processes in class you will do fine. Her lectures can be a little all over the place, but she really does care about you learning the WHY being everything.

Professor Chooljian's course is not easy. You will have to study 2-3 hours a day in order to fully understand the main concepts and processes. Imo lab is much harder than lecture this semester, so study hard. She gives lots of EC opportunities. Go to SI sessions, office hours, and watch a lot of Khan Academy and Anatomy Zone videos. GOOD LUCK!

Professor Chooljian is an amazing professor who knows her stuff! She gives a lot of extra credit and curves both lecture and lab exams (for lecture she curves off the highest score). You also learn way more than what she actually puts on the tests. It is possible to pass the class but if you want an A then you will have to work for it.

This class is HARD! As others have previously mentioned, this class can break you if you do not take time to care for your mental health but do not blame professor Chooljian. She's also caring, I was going through a really tough time at home and when I spoke to her she was very understanding and let me take an exam a week later than everyone else.

Everyone seems to give her a bad rap for her teaching. She is a great teacher and you will certainly learn your stuff. She gets a bad rap because people are lazy and dont want to work hard. Lab is tough but extra credit and curves make up for it. Best advice I can give you is make friends fast and study with them. Class is very doable

this is a tough class, you really have to be dedicated in your work to pass. Getting an A isnt impossible since i surprisingly got one. LOTS of hw. She talks fast in lec but go bc participation points could add into ur final grade as EC. 4 lab and lec tests. final isnt cumulative. study guides dont really help. good luck!

This class is very tough, time consuming and takes a LOT of studying to succeed. There is a LOT of homework and tests or quizzes almost every week. However, if you study and use lab time wisely this class is very doable! Professor Chooljian is very caring and offers a LOT of extra credit. Use those opportunities! Study HARD and you should do well!!

Probably one of the toughest classes I have taken so far! This class can mess with your mental health due to the dense material but don't blame Chooljian. Use your study time wisely and form study groups. Lecture & Lab exams are curved! Connect is a drag but there is TONS of extra credit throughout the semester. Lab is hard but doable. Good luck!

It's not impossible to get an A in the course. Do not listen to all the bad reviews. A&P is a hard course in general, so you must work for it. Don't rely on just the study guide,use her powerpoints,lectures,and outside resources. TAKE NOTES. She curves exams. offers extra credit. Just study study study and you'll do good.

It's a historically hard class, so it makes sense that it's hard. Put in the work and you will AT LEAST pass. All of the tests are curved, including lab exams, she offers extra credit, and at the end of the semester will curve attendance points for someone at a D, needing a C. Lots of work, but it was expected. I only wish lectures were in person.

This is a hard course. You will have to dedicate time for the class which was expected coming from 67A. I did not find the study guides useful but instead focused on her asynchronous lectures on Canvas. She gives a whole week to take the lecture exams which is appreciated. Beware only 2 lab exams! 30 seconds per questions. Do not miss those!

She is a great professor because she is knowledgeable of the material, but she will push you to your absolute limit in terms of studying. She asks you high-level critical thinking questions on her exams that will help you prepare for future exams like TEAS or MCAT. You will need to study ~20-25 hrs per exam minimum for a chance to get an A.

Hard but not impossible since she curves everything. Those who complain about her are not putting in the work and are probably looking for a handout.

If you want to get into medical school, dental school, nursing school or any medically-related field, this is the course to take. TOUGH grader, but does curve. Not a course for those who don't put in the time and do the work. Labs are tough, but excellent. Expect to spend a lot of time studying.

The lectures were very quick-paced. She knows what she is talking about but sometimes it was messy. If you pair her lectures with educational videos, the material will make sense. The textbook that she uses for her class is ok, it lacks the depth of what she really talks about. Find other sources to help don't just rely on the lectures & textbook.

The course is hard but Chooljian knows her stuff. Watch the asynchronous videos and you should pass. 67B Lab was easier than 67A Lab.

She's very knowledgable about A&P but gives lectures that feel rushed & incomplete. Recommend just watching her much more helpful asynchronous lecture videos and taking notes. The hardest part about this class is that it takes SOOO much of your time studying for it although you can expect generous grade curves on lecture & lab exams.

This class definitely will take a lot of your time, but then again, if you're wanting to go somewhere in the medical field then you will need to know these systems that you're going to learn in this class. Chooljian knows this and prepares us, it's up to the students to put in the time and effort to actually understand the concepts. Hard but doable

Professor Chooljian knows its a difficult course and gives you so many resources to help you, gives fat curves and is open to answering questions. While its a hard class that is no way the fault of the professor just the course material. She was super cool but be prepared to put in at least 5 hours a week outside of class. She wants you to succeed

Hard class? yes lol. Is Karen a good teacher? she is. Look this class is designed to be hard. I am not smart at all. I barely met the class averages for each lab and lecture exam. The curves saved my life. Go to SI, read the powerpoints a little bit each day and you will pass. Just try your best and you will pass. She wants you to pass

Anatomy is intended to be tough! The material is insane, but don't get discouraged! Professor C. truly just wants us all to succeed, so reach out to her for help if you can. The lab exams are crazy, but the curves definitely help. Lecture exams are much better, just review everything with time and DON'T CRAM your brain physically can't handle it.

Professor Chooljian sets the bar high, but provides plenty of support to help you succeed. While the course material is challenging, using resources like Unstuck study and putting in the effort can make all the difference. With dedication, this class is manageable.
