Dr. Sexton is one of the best teachers I have ever had. He explains the material very well and his knowledge about the subject is amazing. He gives very thorough tests but they are very fair. I wish he taught other classes at NLC.
dr sexton is amazing. he can make an analogy of anthing and it makes it so much easier to understand A&P. i think he is one of the best teachers at NLC and certainly one of the best i have ever had.
Great teacher...hard tests...really knows what he is talking about and explains things very well...really like his "case studies"
Excellent teaching....Wonderful!!!But the tests seems to be hard...But quality of teaching very good.No one can beat him..
I had this professor in summer for A&P II after taking A&P I with Mr. Wheeler. Boy, talk about night and day--Wheeler was like being in HS and this guy is college. He is an unbelievable fount of knowledge about A&P. Great teacher!!!
it was hard to understand him while trying to find out his writing on the board
Really like this professor. He can answer any question about A&P right off the top of his head. He doesn't use any notes in class--just starts talking and nevr falters. I would recommend him to anyone who is willing to work and wants a great teacher.
Phenominal teacher. Very knowledgable and makes class interesting. The class is not easy, but if you work hard, you will do well. I looked forward to going to class.
very knowledgable if you want to learn I recommend him he is best teacher I had in Northlake. can answer any question about A&P, if you just study no dissappointment in his exams but you have to study but you will learn plus the is always a curve in his exams.
If I had an instructor like this guy in maths, chem.and physics, I would be a genius. This guy is not only smart and unassuming, he can turn a dummy into a genius. I wonder why he is not known all over the metroplex. Great instructor.
I wish I could met him in other classes. His being is just encouraging me to study and he is always there for you to answer and help you. He is fun, generous, understandible. The best teacher ever. strongly recommended if you want to leaern a lot.
all the other positive comments nail it -- this guy is a GREAT TEACHER. take his class, even if not required. he'll work you hard, but you will come out knowing the material. doesn't play favorites, answers all questions, available to help -- and i had him when he was struggling with family and personal illness. can't say enough good about him!
Dr. Sexton is awesome. He's smart and very fair. Study hard and you'll do great. Attractive too. He definately knows his science
So down to earth. Is very knowledgeable in everything and can answer any question you have concerning science. I wonder why he wasn't a surgeon. Great teacher. u will definately learn a lot
great class dr. sexton is my favorite teacher! i reccomend anyone taking anatomy to take him!
Do not take this professor. He is slow at the beginning but makes you pay for it at the end of the class. And don't think about asking any questions. If he doesn't like the question, he just looks at youlike you're stupid.
Dr. Sexton is a great teacher. he knows a lot of biology and anatamy for that matter. he is the best teacher i've had at north lake. he was absent a lot but I make As which is easy to get as long as you STUDY STUDY STUDY
Wonderful Prof. Do your work and you will be fine. BEST A&P Prof. at DCCCD .
One of the best teachers I have ever had. He really knows his stuff! He makes boring lessons fun and has tricks to help you remember bones and other things!
dr sexton is the absolute best professor i have ever had. i have been to several schools since my spouse is in the military and we have had to move around.
Dr. Sexton is Awesome! As long as you pay attention and study you will do well. He will explain anything to you. He is a wonderful professor! I recommend everyone take him!
awesome badass teacher! man! he's real awesome!
hes an awesome teacher..ull definitely learn a lot frm tht class..i only got a 'B' in tht class but i took it durin summer n i didnt study as much as i shld have..take him durin normal semester..lab was very easy cuz its multiple choice n the lec is also multiple choice n the finals optional...hes curves lecture grades!!
I took both BIOL 2401 and 2402 in the same semester and made A's. Being an international student Dr. Sexton has been my favourite instructor of.He's an amazing Professor who really knows his biology. I wish he could be my professor in all my other classes, i would be a doctor by now! Thax Dr Sexton, you make this world a better place to study in!!!
Excellent Teacher!!! He can be abrupt when responding to questions, although I don't believe that it is intentional. My diagnosis: He is experiencing burnout and needs a vacation or an opportunity to pursue other interest. You will learn a lot and will find Dr. Sexton's teaching very beneficial when you enter your program of preference.
i hate this class. he is not exactly nice, he doesnt get anything graded and he just reads off of the powerpoints mainly. during the socratic seminar he told my group we were naive for having an opinion that was different from his. overall its an easy class if you go and pay attention. but dont expect a ton of help
Great teacher, I took him for A&P 1 and 2 fast track in one semester. Alot alot of studying if you're serious about learning. If you're there to be lazy don't bother. He knows his material a few times I would ask questions that related to the topic he was on and he had an explanation for it right off the top of his head. study hard, do well.
A&P is a difficult course with a ton of information to learn. I took him during Summer I and enjoyed the class. The amount of information is extremely demanding. Mr. Sexton was always available to help me. He gives out tons of notes, powerpoints, and educational web-sites on e-campus.
Great teacher for the subject! Sexton is very clear and does an excellent job presenting the material. He's pretty impersonal but gets the job done. If you work hard and study a lot- you'll do well. No homework, little text reading needed, he provides awesome lecture notes, and gives you an opportunity to earn test bonus points. TAKE HIM!
I didn't read all these comments prior to mine, but if anyone is saying anything bad about this professor they're pathetic. He is the best A&P teacher, I took him for summer 1 and made an A and plan on taking him again! Plus he's a hottie!! with a bodie
This professor is somewhat lazy. All the tests are scantron only and those are the only grades. Labs are only looking at models. There are many powerpoints and lecture notes, all read aloud in lecture. So much information and we are still uncertain of what is on the tests. Will not take any classes with him at this school again.
Mr.Sexton is a very informative, easy to understand, get to the point teacher. He is not super patient when you ask questions. But he is very clear and makes biology interesting and easy to understand. His tests are all matching/multiple choice so if you go to class, take notes, and study them along with the powerpoints you should easily pass!
Excellent professor! Recommend!!! It is A&P so you have to study and memorize it to do well but Dr. Sexton tells you exactly what to study. In lecture he places emphasis on the major test topics. In lab he gives you checklists to study. No surprises. Very knowledgeable on the subject and he gladly explains and answers questions. Take Dr. Sexton!
a&p needs lots of reading but kelly pick up the major text to study and make your study easy and less. lab is easy. class was fun.have review for the test. easy A if you study a bit more.
I took A&P fast track but it was made alot easier with Dr. Sexton. he gives you the things you need to study I never felt there were any surprises but with A&P if you don't study all the time you won't pass. I did enjoy his class and wish he taught biol 1406&08
Good teacher. Very clear objectives and expectations. Fair grader. Obviously knows and enjoys the subject. Can be a bit standoffish about questions (though to be fair he gets a lot of dumb questions). Tests are MC/Matching for lab and lecture. Extra credit (up to 10 pts) on test. Take home Case Study for each lab test. I recommend him.
Prof. sexton is an awesome teacher. He gives you so much extra help through slides, reviews etc that is posted on ecampus. The material of A&P is hard that is why you'll spend a lot time studying if you want to make an A but its doable!!take him especially for fast track class!!
Dr. Sexton keeps me interested in class. He has TONS of materials online--lots of tutorials and pictures--all his powerpoints are original (not publishers) and he is a great lecturer. He should have been a surgeon -- in fact people ask him why he's not. I loved this class. I tell all my friends to take him.
This guy is awesome! I love his voice! Hard class but you learn a lot I wish I took him for A&P1. He gives great lab reviews and decent lecture reviews. No surprises. Gives bonus quizzes. Kind of stand offish but not in a bad way. Very knowledgeable on subject matter. Slow grader sometimes. Definitely would recommend him. :) Hot in a weird way?
Seriously the BEST A&P professor out there. You can't go wrong taking him. He gives you everything you need to know to study. Exams are M/C, matching and 20% essay which he gives the questions to you to solve ahead of time. TAKE HIM!!!! EASY A He is awesome. Lots of bonus point quizzes worth 40 points.
One of the best professors that I have had.He is very knowlegable about the subject and has a great sense of humor.I wish he also taught other science classes.Keep in mind that A&P requires you to dedicate alot of time studying and you should probably attend class regularly if you want an A.I definitely recommend him! He is the best A&P professor!
Awesome brings the material to life. He should be the only a&p teacher. Not too fast not boring. fun easy going. if you want to pass take him. he can really teach!!!!!!!!!!! look no further nice teacher :)
AWESOME professor! He's not easy, but not extremely hard either. Let me tell you though, if you don't study A LOT...you won't pass. Lab book is ESSENTIAL, and going to class everyday is too. Powerpoints are given, but he explains and adds during lecture, glad I didn't miss it, otherwise my tests would have been impossible!!
Great Instructor!!! Not only is he extremely knowledgeable, but he applies his lectures to real world scenarios making learning the material easy and interesting. You still have to put in the hours and study!!! Not a "gimme" grade. Test are tricky and will not ask direct questions but 'round about' questions making you truly think.
Love this guy. Took his class during a 4 week summer term. I can't believe how much I learned in such a short time. He gives great lectures -- in fact this is the first teacher I have had who actually "teaches". No questions unanswered. Love the "team bonus" quizzes. Should be the only guy at NLC teaching A&P.
Took him for fast track 2401 & 2402. He is very smart. Not one of those profs you get to know personally, but a VERY good professor. I asked him a LOT of questions and always felt like he enjoyed answering them. He's not an easy A by any means but if you want to learn, he's you prof.
Great great great instructor, you can tell he enjoys teaching and loves what he does. Answers questions, emails name it; BUT you also have to do your part to make it. Would recommend him anytime
Very kind instructor. He is understanding and cares alot about his students. If you take the time to get to know him,he is interesting and very smart. His class is HARD,but if you study and attend class you will do well. It IS NOT an easy A but you will know your stuff when you finish. Took Fast Track-you need both books and the power points
Great Professor! Dr. Sexton was very knowledgable, helpful,and keeps the class interesting. You won't regret taking his class! Not an easy A, but he gives you all of the tools you need to succeed.
Study his PPT's, be able to answer all the essay questions he gives to you ahead of time and you will make an A. If you know the essay question, you know his test. Dont need book.Great Prof, very clear and fun. Its A&P youll have to study, its not a hand me grade. Made an A here.
Dr. Sexton is the best teacher for this course! i took him for 2401 and 2402! he has a wonderful teaching technique. He is helpful, nice, and caring! would recommend him to anyone who asked! He is quick to respond emails and to grade and post scores. Loved him!
I took Kelly Sexton for both Biology 2401 and 2402. Best professor I've ever gotten to know. He is so passionate and knowledgeable about this subject. He is caring, helpful and tries his best to make it crystal clear for you. It's not an easy A, but you learn so much which is what's most important. I highly recommend him! You will love him!
Great professor. Study his ppt, essay questions, and review sheet. Fun class...you can't make him blush.
I took 2401/2402 fast track. omg he is the best professor ever! attend every lect & lab bc he will help you & answer any questions you have & gives pop quizzes for bonus points. the lab tests are easy, study the essay questions for lect & use his review & your notes to study. I made an A & B, it isn't an easy class. you have to work hard & study!
Dr. Sexton is "da bomb" LOL. I loved his class. He "knows" everything--I never heard any question by any student that he wasn't able to answer. Not only does he know the answer he can communicate the answer. His class is not easy but A&P should not be easy. Best NLC prof there is!!!
Dr Sexton is my favorite professor of all times. He kept my attention all during class and I left with new knowledge everyday
Dr. Kelly is the epitome of what a professor should be. He is organized, knowledgeable, a good communicator, and concerned for his students. I took his acclerated classes and I was never bored. I love his team quizzes--he tries to make you think. He's funny and easy to listen to. I wish he taught more classes.
I took the fast track, AP 1 is def a breeze compared to AP 2 but AP 1 is not easy. His test are not clear, they contradict his powerpoint, review and from what the book says. Even on lab test, AP2, he was not concise, also the lecture test- multiple answers could have been the right choice. You will have not life outside this class!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Loved Dr Sexton!!! Took Maymester class and it was hard. Lots of work, but I really learned a lot. 50 ques quizes each morning over prev ch. Can ask him anything and he'll know the answer and explain it to you until you get it. Great guy, hard class. Take him if you want to learn!!
I only wish Dr. Sexton taught more classes. He is probably the most organized teacher ever. He has TONS of material online (he has built lots of tutorials for lab that are not only inforamtive they are fun). I took both 2401 and 2402 from him and I would take them again just to be in his class. He can answer any question and make it clear.
He tries to be helpful, but his voice drones on and on and he doesn't give any clue what the tests will cover exactly. Gets irritated and frustrated easily when trying to get corrections on a test where we had the right answer and he put the wrong one on the scantron/answer sheet. Multiple instances.
Dr. Sexton taught me in A&P I this past summer and I learned sooo much. He is crystal clear. He uses powerpoints but not in a boring way. We had team quizzes which I loved. He is not an easy teacher but I really wish I could have had A&P II with him. I took it with another professor who was not nearly as good.
Best of the best, I learned a lot from his class. Not an easy subject; however, class was fun
Hes not a bad teacher. he doesn't make things too difficult. You cant slack off though. you have to work for the grade you want.
Dr. Sexton is a great professor. Brilliant man, too. This class is NOT an easy A and if you want one, you will have to work very hard for it. Study, study, study. You will learn from Dr. Sexton. He cares about his students and wants to see them succeed. TAKE this professor if you want to learn Anatomy and Physiology!
Accelerated A&P I & II tips. Show up- you never know when there is going to be a pop quiz for extra credit. You'll need them! Watch Wendy Riggs' videos on youtube BEFORE you go to class. There are more to his tests than just what is covered on the essays. Good grades on lab tests are insurance for your grade. Be prepared to work hard!
Dr. Sexton is one of the best professors I have had. I took his accelerated A&P I and II and was able to make an A in each. I worked hard--you have to but there are no surprises. He is not tricky and wants everyone to get the information. All I can say is "Take him"!!
Dr. Sexton is the best teacher ever, attend his lecture to make A, bonus quizez are ++, He will feed you A and P that is how much he is clear at explaining and he is always helpful, encorraging and funny too. TAKE him!! His May-Mester will be awesome. I will miss is class!!
I cannot begin to say enough positive things about this professor. The bonus points, the option to re-take the test, the option to drop the lowest lab grade. This professor WANTS his students to excel. No, he doesn't spoon feed you an A or a B. You have to work hard. But that's A&P for anyone. Take this professor. He is top of the line.
Dr. Sexton is amazing. I took his accelerated A&P 1 and 2 classes and he explains the material so well. You cannot slack off in this class - make sure to keep up & study. He answers every question the students throw at him & he genuinely wants us to do well. The bonus points are so important so go to class. I wish he taught other classes!!
Great teacher! He allows you to take each exam twice and you can drop your lowest lab grade! Dont miss class because you may miss bonus points from group quizzes. You will need those bonus points! Highly recommend this teacher - he is pretty funny too!
I took Dr. Sexton for both A&P1 & 2. He is a great professor. As longest you understand his lectures you will do ok. He provides great power points that go along with the test pretty well. These are tough classes but Dr. Sexton makes it fun and clear.
The best teacher ever, his power point lecture are very easy to understand, that all you have to study , if you study his power point you will make an A. his lecture test and lab practical are easy . he will let you retake all his test . and will drop your lowest lab practical, you will make an a if you try in his class, Dr sexton is the best.
I took fast track A&P 1 and 2 with Dr. sexton. His lecture's were always been on point with test. Practical tests were easy as long as you study the power points; don't really need the lab book. Bonus points are all ways plus point for these kind of classes. Also, give you an option to retake the test. I really enjoyed attending his lecture.
The class isn't easy, you have to work for your grade. He seemed as a tough teacher but he truly care about helping. He does give pop quizzes but he uses them for extra credit points on lecture tests . Lets you retake all lecture test once and drop one lab test. Memorize power points word to word and pass, not necessarily a A but a decent grade.
Took his fast track classes. Tough class but great teacher! He lets you retake his exams, plus you can drop your lowest lab grade. Make sure to show up to class bc group pop quizes for bonus credit! Trust me you will need the points. Don't need your book... can study powerpoints. Got an A. He's awesome - just take him!
I took him for A&P 1 and 2, and I wouldn't recommend anyone else. Lab check list are exactly what's need to know on practicals. Lecture notes are detailed, and aren't just boring power points. Extra credit quiz are extremely helpful.
Excellent Professor! He is an inspiration. Take him if you want to learn. Not an easy class but you will definitely learn a lot.
Dr. Sexton is probably the best professor I have ever taken. He is so organized and crystal clear as to what is expected. I learned so much in a short time. Take him!! That's all I can say--he's the best A&P professor at North Lake College. It will be horrible if he ever decides to leave.
Take notes in lecture!! A lot of the things he says are on the test! Give you 2 attempts on Tests and will give you the highest grade. He has lecture notes for each test on Ecampus that is way too much info to study for, I never used those. But, I recommend taking the first attempt and study using that to take the second attempt. Pop quizzes HELPED
Took the fast track class... Dr. Sexton is the best college science professor I've had. He's truly there for his students. It is a difficult class so you do have to put in the effort to get a good grade, but you get two tries for lecture tests. Just pay attention in class and study the powerpoints for tests and you should do great!
Best Professor Ive ever had took him for A&P II in may term was hard but always made sure you understood concepts and always willing to help. Make sure to take notes and attend lecture if you want a good grade.
I loved his class. He is using a team teaching method that I have never encountered before. You take each test and quiz TWICE first by yourself then with your group. You get to discuss each question and come up with a group answer. I learned SO MUCH this way. If I didn't know the answer someone in my group would. All should be this way.
This professor would be awesome if his main focus would be Lecture and understanding of content. His random pop quizzes are not so bad but his case studies are way more time consuming and unnecessary, when you could be actually focusing and studying the power points, models and content that will help benefit your grades rather than hinder them.
WOW. I just read a POOR rating for Dr. Sexton and it was all because of the CASE STUDIES. In fact, if you plan to be in health care the cases are "what's it all about". I signed on to give Dr. Sexton my highest rating I have ever given any professor in my life. He is the best by far and I have taken classes at several colleges.
i took dr. S for 2401 in the fall. because of my other classes i'm taking 2402 with a different teacher and boy do i wish i could have dr. s back again. he is crystal clear and i loved his team teaching method. i don't think i have ever learned as much in a class as his. he lets you use a free online book and old lab book ed so the class was cheap.
Dr. Sexton is an amazing teacher. I am a high school teacher myself and I wish dearly that I had as a strong a grasp of the subject as he does. He can answer ANY question at ANY time. I love his analogies. He is the best teacher I have had in ANY science course ANYwhere. Take his class-you will love the team quizzes and case studies.
Dr Sexton is by far the best biology teacher I've had. Take his class guys, he gives 2 chances to take the test and he only takes highest grade,he puts you in groups and that's how you take your quizzes (always listen in class). He's always there to answer your question whether via email or on the hallway. He's the best and I'm taking him for A&PII
Dr. Sexton gives you 2 chances to take lecture exams & takes the highest grade. We also have random lecture GROUP quizzes that consist of 15 questions. If ur quiz grades r low then you can do the case study which will replace 3 of your lowest quiz grades. You will 1st take your lab practical individually & then as a group & he will average them out
Dr Sexton knows very clearly what he is teaching. Very clear concepts. He uses everyday life examples to create very easy pictures in students' minds. Not very strict about deadlines and very understanding if u explain a real reason for late work. I took his class by default because Prof Wheeler's class was full, but I m so glad that i did. Got A.
Dr. Sexton was an amazing teacher. I took A&P 2401 and A&P 2402 in two shortmester during the spring. He's very clear and to the point. You have to work for your grade and study but you can make an A if you try and do all the work. Good Luck!
Prof Sexton is extremely organized and clear--his lectures are actually fun to listen to. He assigns groups which interact a lot and he gives group quizzes and lab tests. I really wish I could take him for 2402 but he's not teaching summer 2.
Man. I can't say enough GREAT things about Dr. Sexton. Took him for fall&spring last year for 2401& 2402. If you're terrified of taking Bio, TAKE HIM! I was scared to take this class, and Kelly made me fall in love with this class. Such a good guy. Retakes for each test (tests are same), and offers plenty extra credit. HE MAKES THE CLASS SO EASY!
DR SEXTON is the best professor I've ever had! I've taken classes at TWU, and all over DCCCD. He's the best. He makes his lectures so interesting, gives real life analogies. His tests & retakes are straight from the PPT's and reviews. A lot of group interaction and quizzes. He makes you love A&P. He deserves a "Best professor award!"
Currently in Dr. Sexton's class and let me just say, the best professor I have ever had at North Lake. His flex terms seem really intimidating for A&P 1 and 2 but he makes sure you understand before you move on. Can not say enough good things but to recommend this class to anyone needing to take Anatomy and Physiology!!
Amazing, this professor is simply amazing, I loved every minute of class. Clear expectations are set at the beginning, lectures are engaging, and he will answer literally any question without making you feel dumb. A lot of studying is required, but you learn a lot. Stop reading this and take his class if you need the credit, you'll enjoy it so much
Excellent professor. Next to impossible to fail this class. He makes sure you understand EVERTHING. If you have questions ask, he'll never make you feel dumb. You have two tries on lecture exams & for one even a 3rd attempt, of your choice! If you pass the quizzes in lab YOU WILL PASS LAB PRACTICALS!! Case studies were fun, and made you think.
I'm currently taking the fast track of A&P and I am so glad Dr. Sexton is my profesor! I absolutely love his class. He takes the time to teach you everything you need to know and also helps you if you don't. I'm learning so much! I took it the first time at a different college and let me tell you that Dr. Sexton is the best bio professor!
FAST TRACK A&P I & II Work in grps. 1st lab individual, 2nd w/grp, averages the 2 for each test. All lect tests are individual but can take each twice, higher grade prevails. Only 1 extra credit for each part. EXCELLENT teacher! Breaks it down for easy understanding. Lots of memorization in part 1, part 2 is more chem involved. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Dr. Sexton is unique. He is about the smartest guy I ever met but he doesn't use it to make you feel dumb. He can answer any question about anything and he does it in such a way that you understand it. He uses LOTS of analogies and they stick. I will never forget "think of chromosomes like pairs of shoes--they are alike but not identical".
best teacher forever, i hope all the teacher could follow his style, he give to many extra credit and can answer any question you need. if you take him for A&P 1 and 2 your are lucky because he is one of the best teacher i have had in my life . please take him you will not regret
So far a really a great professor. He explains things in a way thats easy to understand, he always uses great analogies. If you like working in groups you'll defiantly love this class because he pairs you up into teams of four. The only negative thing i can say is that he takes awhile to post grades but other then that hes an amazing professor.
Awesome professor. I took his accelerated 8-week anatomy & physiology 2 class. I thought it would be harder because you have to learn the same amount of material in half as much time but he is a great teacher & he makes the class sooo easy. So easy it's impossible to fail. Multiple extra credit opportunities. Lots of quizzes but they're super easy.
Wow. Not sure where to start. I think Dr. S is about the best professor I can imagine. It's funny cause the class just chatted about RMP and Dr. S says he never reads it. I wish he would cause he'd see just how well-thought of his classes are. I took both accel classes and I LOVE them. Take him! You can't do better. Love the collaboration!
I have gone to a bunch of different colleges including elite universities and I have rarely seen a TEACHER of this quality. I put TEACHER in all caps cause that is what he is. He pushes and pulls and tugs on your brain so that you actually understand -- he uses all sorts of reinforcing methods. He should be TEACHING teachers how to TEACH!
Took this professor in minimester. Great teacher. He really cares about his students. Short time but he knows what he was doing. He gives students review and teach you tricks to remember things. Awesome teacher overall. Highly recommended
Most knowledgeable prof I've ever had. Willing to help students every single way. His letter of recommendation helped me get into medical school after graduating from UT Dallas. Took his BIOL2402 in fast track 4 week semester at North Lake College. Great teacher. Recommended with every heartbeat
He taught both BIOL2402 and 2401 in short time. I thought it was hard but he made it very possible to pass with an A. No textbook required. It's free pdf provided by him. He loves helping his students. Not easy A but very possible to get high A's.
Lots of extra credits. Let you work in groups for lab exams. Give reviews before lecture exams. Free pdf textbooks provided at the beginning of class. Easy
Let students retake exams 2 times if they well behave. Gave a lot of extra credits. Attendance not mandatory. Always asked students if they understood the materials clearly or he would explain again. Very slacking off. Do NOT take. NOT recommended
Students work in groups for lab exams but submit individual paper. 3 lab 3 lecture exams with 6-7 optional extra credit questions. Have 1 week to take the exams. Retake allowed up to 2 times and highest score counts. Do NOT rely on this cuz lazy happens. Tell jokes to make students laugh in class all the time. Would NOT recommended. Spoil students
Give Free PDF textbook. Do NOT take UNLESS you really want to have an easy instructor. Tests are all from the powerpoints in class. Every exam for both lec and lab has 8 optional extra credit questions. Retake 2 times highest score counts. Lab exams in group. Terrible instructor
Great professor. Use different methods to help students learn efficiently
Very knowledgeable and helpful for Spring 2018 BIOL2401 and BIOL2402 Fast Track. Yes highly recommended
Push and pull your brains so you could learn things fast and easy. Make good jokes in class. Awesome teacher overall
Pretty decent class. Everything on the exam is straight off from the PPT. Not a tough classat all
Avoid all bad comments and take him for your Anatomy 1 and Anatomy 2. Very helpful instructor. Best instructor in North lake college.
Prof Sexton is a wonderful professor. He is caring and he is very good at what he does. He knows A&P and he is able to get it across. I took both parts 1&2 with him and I actually miss his class. It was fun and I learned so much. I made friends with my teammates. I never thought A&P could be so good.
If you want an enjoyable A&P class then take Sexton. You learn a lot in his course! Not just about A&P but also on team work and collaboration. His class was the best science course that Ive ever taken in college and Ive taken many! An A is very do able if you show up to class regularly and study PowerPoints. Ignore negative comments! seriously
Currently taking his class. Professor really knows how to teach! However, tests are very hard and no extra credit is given...I took this class reading the reviews however it has been very different for me. I have been doing fine so far, but this class requires 3 hours of studying everyday to make an A.
fast track of A&P and he honestly helped me learn so much in such a short time period. He is the best university professor I have ever had, he is nothing compared to state school professors in Texas. He doesn't give out easy As but is straightforward with what you need to get an A. Put in the work and pay attention and an A is doable. AMAZING
Highly recommend Dr. Sexton.... just finished summer class , and I have learned some much in his class. Fast track class ever !! Pay attention , take notes, and read the powerpoints .
(SUMMER) Does NOT do Extra Credit anymore, instead does group quizzes w assigned group. Many quizzes. No homework. Dont miss a class, gives AMAZING lectures. You really do have to know everything for tests tho, but he lets you take each twice. Tests are 80 MC (80%), 2 Free Response (20%). Notes NECESSARY to pass class. Overall enjoyable and fun
The best professor i've ever had. if you pay attention in class, you will get an A because he has the best lectures. He makes the content interesting and easy to learn. The tests are not easy but if you look over his PowerPoints and pay attention in class. You will make an A
took AP 1 and 2 on one semester. Best professor to take. he is on point, attend lecture take notes, you will pass. he offer multiple attempt on the exams, so would you not pass? Good luck!
Professor Sexton is the best teacher I have ever had. His lectures are amazing and does not require a book. The course has a lot of information so you do need to study, but his test are straight forward. the quizzes will prepare you for his test. He does provide extra credit which helps.
AP is difficult no matter the school. Dr. Sexton is very good at teaching because of his real life examples and lectures (never boring). Despite tests are tough but if you pay attention& study hard, you will receive the grade, plus I strongly believe his class will aid with Hesi/TEAS exams.
I took his class in both Anatomy 2401 and 2402. . I love the way Dr. Sexton teaches. His lectures have a lot of information but the way he teaches it , it really helps. He's so inspirational and he makes the lectures interesting due to his real-life examples. do the questions at the end of the syllabus before taking test. he gives extra credit
Professor Sexton is a true Gem. He was has been my Favorite professor thus far. He sets you up for success. He does gives a lot of quizzes, I thought they would be a lot but it was just what we needed. There not long, 15 questions per quiz, 3 lecture exams, and 3 lab exams. we also get review sheets. I would recommend him to anyone.
He was a good professor. I took the 5 week course for summer session I, and he did a good job within the time frame. Honestly, I did not really learn much because everything was basic, but that's understandable within the time frame. HOWEVER, he does go really fast, so you have to be ready to learn a month's worth of information in a week.
I took BIOL2401 during summer 1, and professor Sexton is amazing. He helped you as much as he can to make sure you understand the material. I did not have to spend much time outside class because he made us repeating and talking until we all understand. There were lots of lab quizzes, but those quizzes give us an idea about the lab exams.
Sexton can teach. His class is hard but he teaches so well. I took him for summer 1 and so our tests were online and we got two attempts on each one. His powerpoints are long and every minute of the class I was writing trying to take notes. For lab, you're put in groups and you have group quizzes, which at first seemed bad but turned out to be good
Professor Sexton is by far the best professor that I ever had! He encourages you to understand what you learn, to repeat (because repetition is your best friend- this is always what he says), and infects you with passion about the subject. He may seem a little intimidating, but he truly is a great professor and cares about his students!
idk why everyone loves him he never really appealed to me. way too much "group work", so if your group is dumb you're screwed. goes WAYYY too fast even for an 8 week fast tracked class. ppt. slides are 200+ per lecture, disorganized & messy. whenever we take group tests he doesn't wait for us, once again going way too fast. I'd rather take wheeler.
No matter what teacher, Anatomy is a tough subject because there are endless things to learn. This class was hard but very rewarding and I learned so much throughout just 8 weeks. Professor Sexton was by far my best teacher. I didn't buy the textbook and managed to get an A following only the powerpoints. It was not easy at all but it was rewardin
Professor Sexton is probably the best professor I have ever had. His lectures and powerpoints are long, but he gives you everything you need to be successful. Study and you're guaranteed an A/B. His class was interesting, fun and engaging. He gave group quizzes each lab and many lectures to keep us from falling behind. He also let us re-take exams.
Professor Sexton, space he is absolutely a gem! Northlake is really lucky to have him. He make sure that you understand the material, he doesnt make you feel stupid if you ask 21 times he will make sure that you fully understand the material. Lots of memorization, lab book is great but his PowerPoint are everything. Study the PowerPoints!
20 plus years experience, tries to make things as simple as possible! Amazing lectures!
He made this class very fun and informative at the same time! I really like the way he compared topics that we needed to cover in class into real life scenarios because it helped me memorize conceptsI would definitely recommend this professor to anyone!! He is awesome. If you study your notes from class, then you will do a high grade in his tests.
I took Dr. Sexton for BIOL-2401 and BIOL-2402, he is hands down the best professor I have ever had. This is not an easy course but it is an important course. He truly cares about his students and he wants you to succeed. His lectures are interesting and he breaks the material down so it's easier to understand. Take his class, you won't regret it.
Best professor Ive ever had. Gave great examples. There is a lot of work to be done but he lets you use powerpoints as a guide. Took him for A&P 1 and 2 made an A & B.
one of the coolest and smartest professors ever. study hard and you will get an A
Fall 2020 8 week semester 1. Sexton is an excellent lecturer. Questions on the exams/quizzes were as expected. There were multiple quizzes for both lecture & lab. There were 3 lecture exams and 3 lab exams with 2 attempts each. All open book but timed. One case study where you answer questions based on what you read. Highly recommend!
You will pass this class if you do the work. This is not the type of course that you would want to cram all your work in the last couple of weeks. Its a course with a lot of information. if you at lease do one assignment a day you will be good to go.
Great! Would take again. Easy A, the only reason i didn't get one is because i didnt realize i had signed up for it to be fast tracked course ( 8 weeks course, fall 2020). If i knew, i would of gotten an A easily because i did minimal work and finish a whole semester's worth of work in 3 weeks instead of 8 weeks, and still managed to get a good B!
took dr. sexton for both 2401 and 2402 online. he was a very intelligent teacher who i can see has a passion for teaching this subject and also wants his students to succeed. Got an A for both classes, but took a lot of effort. Wish i was able to take him in person.
Fall 2020 8 week semester 2. Sexton provides great lecture videos & PowerPoints so the textbook wasn't necessary. There were 21 quizzes (drop lowest 2), 1 case study, 3 lab tests, & 3 lecture tests. There were 2 attempts on each quiz & test & only the highest score would count. Optional +10 points extra credit towards the lowest lecture test.
Professor if good at what he teaches he is passionate about it, but I would NOT I repeat NOT take his class again his test questions are not direct and hard to understand what he's is asking. Gives you options A-J you have 2 tries to take the test but the 2nd time you get a completely different test. Same about the quizzes.
Professor Kelly is an amazing professor, he is very responsive to emails. I took him for AP 2401, be sure to go over the power points they are very helpful for the test. Not an easy A but if you work hard enough you will get an A. Took this class during summer.
Professor Sexton is a great professor for Anatomy and Physiology class. He is one caring lecturer for his students. He has his class organized really well - and he gives you a lot of time to finish tasks. His class has 20+ quizzes, 3 lecture test, 3 lab test and 1 case study. If you watch his lectures and work on the worksheets provide u r good!
The course ITSELF is hard, he is not a bad teacher. The negative reviews surprises me because I have taken this course twice already and he is the best one to have teach me. Anatomy is a hard subject, Professor Sexton does the best he can and I think he is an amazing professor, his lectures are comfortable to understand.
Great Professor! Pick him for Anatomy I & Anatomy II. Thank me later.
BIOL2402 is a hard subject so at least have a good professor to teach you, in this case, take professor Sexton, very nice professor to help teach a hard subject
Expect long lecture videos but explains everything with great amount of detail for you to really understand the material, lecture and lab exams can be taken twice. extra credit is available at the end. GREAT PROFESSOR PLEASE TAKE HIM ONLINE! I took him ap1 and ap2 BOTH A's a lot of studying but passing is possible!
Sexton is a really incredible professor. Relevant material, not outdated like most classes. Caring and responsive. Provides feedback. Gives extra credit. Need more profs like him! No lockdown browser to ruin your computer.
Professor was really caring for everyone, even risking going as far as extending due dates at the end of the semester even though most students would already be done at that point. The course wasn't so hard since all of the answers is in the 10-page slideshows provided to you. Definitely enroll in this course if you don't like getting rushed.
Dr.Kelly Sexton is the best professor I have ever had. I've shamefully taken AP several times & this is the 1st time I learned it clearly. He always makes sure you know the concepts before moving forward. Uses repetition as a study tool. I am taking him again for AP2. I recommend him if you have trouble in AP. He actually cares that you're u/s it.
Do the reading and take notes from the powerpoints. His online lectures are super helpful. He gives a lot of quizzes, but they do help! You'll be ok if you put in the work.
Dr. Sexton is a celebrity from the BIOL department. You will read many positive reviews about him and he has earned his reputation. My ONLY criticism is that A&P lab is incredibly difficult in an online format. This isn't his fault, but his lab exams are very difficult if you haven't been reviewing the anatomical models w/ him in an in-person lab.
He is awesome professor! PLs take his class, but you will need to prepare for lots of powerpoint reading! but they are based on test, quiz, exam. PLEASE TAKE HIM!
I am a former student writing this review, I took this class as a nursing school pre-req. As I have now graduated nursing school and am studying for the NCLEX, I'm realizing the main reason I understand concepts now is because this Prof made everything click. I remember his examples and retained a lot! Fortunate to have taken his class.
