Very hard class overall - not all her fault...if you didn't study then you wouldn't do that great. Other 146 teachers worse....

Kim is a very good teacher. Very thorough with her material. You must read the material before coming to class. She explains everything and gives plenty of time for questions. Extra credit points also. We took a summer class and it was tough but really enjoyed Kim. She has a sense of humor that all the other posts are being ridiculous about a

The course was hard and required a lot of outside studying. However, study the notes and you'll do great b/c everything on the tests come directly from the notes. She was helpful if you asked for help outside of class

Kim is a sarcastic and funny instructor. She can come off a little harsh, but don't take it personally. The material in this class is difficult. Expect to study A LOT. You are expected to know the material and take notes before class, which I thought was helpful although time consuming. Her tests are difficult. I got an A, but studied hard.

I liked her a lot. She is fair, you just need to study your stuff and you will be fine.

She is the BEST teacher. She does a great job explaining difficult material. Her tests are very fair. You have to work hard to do well in her class. She is a great teacher because she challenges her students. She knows that challenging her students now will help them in their future careers. Also, she offers additional help during office hours.

Kim is a good teacher, but VERY tough! She does not screw around and if you don't care, then she won't either. She will help you, but you have to ask specific questions. Only complaint was the dept switched books but her notes reflected from the last book and were never updated. Overall, I'd take her again but GLAD i don't have to!!!

There is no "easy" teacher for this course. It is a very intensive and fast paced class. You HAVE to put MANY hours of studying to succeed. Vietti does offer her assistance. But her tests are insanely hard, essay questions even on the final! And it probably cost me 20 bucks to print out all the notes. Be prepared to make this class top priority.

good teacher! You have to study to pass! If your going into nursing you will appreciate her prior to entering the program!

Kim is a good teacher. I feel like she gets a bad rap at times because she is teaching an intense class that is difficult if you don't keep up. She is willing to help if you ask but expects a lot from her students too. I felt like I was in boot camp so to speak but I know that all her intense drilling will pay off in nursing school. Thanks Kim!

She is one of the coolest teachers I had. She is tough and expects you to know material. Study hard!! You will appreciate it when you enter nursing classes. She is funny and sarcastic but not in a malicious way like the other posts have read. If you are not prepared and expect to blow it off-don't bother with her. I had her both 145 and 146.

Kim is a great teacher! She has even clarified things I didn't quite get from last semester. She wants you to do well, but you will have to work HARD!

I tried really hard to like Kim. The class is hard and it would be a hard subject to teach. However, she is rude and never goes out of her way to be friendly with someone. She teaches the material well but she is to intimidating to ask questions.

She is a very tough teacher to please. I am an A student and am currently not getting an A in that class; I have a B. She is sarcastic which can be very annoying at times. She expects a lot and doesnt offer much grace when you aren't clear on something. She is very intimidating but has a lot of information to offer.

She is a sweet teacher when you are on her good side. But the way she presents new material to the students, she makes it fairly tough to understand. Buts shes a nice teacher!

She was hard, but I am at OSF College of Nursing now and really use everything I learned from her!!! So glad I did not take the easy way out! TAKE HER!!

Tough teacher but this is a hard class no matter what the teacher you have. If you do well in the class she will (naturally) be nicer to you. She gives quizzes and worksheets for more chances to earn more points and her notes are good and clear. She is tough but I think it'll be worth it in the long run.

Class is tough regardless. Good lectures with good examples. Can be helpful at times when she wants to be... Better instructor for lecture than lab. I did not like her at the time, but I'm glad I had her in preparation for nursing school!

she is very up front and tells u how it is. sometimes gives the runaround with ?'s by saying "we can discuss this after class" but if u really want to know something she will explain. dont take her in the morning! she is frustrating before noon. an afternoon class is the best after her coffee has kicked in ;) overall a good teacher

Kim is a great professor especially for nursing students! All the comments about her being hard are right but this subject is hard. Pay attention, study and ask questions. This is not a blowoff class no matter who you have. Anyone complaining about her just didn't want to apply themselves or ask for help. Answers any and all relevant questions!

Kim is a very good teacher. Take notes and study, a lot, and you'll do fine. Bio 146 is a lot of memorizing, but it can be done. Only drawback to Kim as a teacher, if she is in a bad mood, don't even try to take notes. The power point can barely keep up with her.

WOW, Kim was the greatest professor ever. Yes she is a very challenging teacher but thats because she wants you to know BIO 146. She doesnt give grades you earn them. Listen to what she tells you to do, study the material and you will do fine. Kim will go out of her way to help you if YOU want the help. Also make sure to remember hepatocytes!! :)

Very good teacher. She makes you earn grade but is very fair.

If you are looking for a blow off class you might wanna check out some art classes... she knows her stuff and is happy to teach you as long as you aren't a schmuk... if you want to learn it shes the teacher for the job! And to top it all off she doesn't use the line "i'll get back to you on that" because she has an answer for you right there...

This is a wicked hard class because of the amount of material to be covered. Those that blame Vietti for being hard are off the mark. She takes very difficult material and makes it fun and interesting. You will have to work hard at this class no matter who you take it with. You can't do better than Vietti. I highly recommend her!

I thought Vietti was a great teacher. I took biology 206 with her during the summer minimester. Received an A. She helps prepare for harder classes nursing student and other health professions are going to take.

I love this teacher! I am taking her 206 lecture/lab right now and I think she is great. She's incredibly intelligent and I respect her a lot. She goes over a lot of information but it is mandatory. She is upfront about how you need to study. It's not a course you need to be taking if you struggle in school. This will lower the smartest person'sGPA

If you want to go into the health field (esp nursing) you would be screwing yourself to not take anatomy with Vietti. I transferred colleges and out-do all of my classmates in nursing school and I honestly believe it is because of our anatomy professors. Vietti is tough. However, if you want to succeed you need to step up and do the work..

I am currently in this class in a mini-mester(12 days to learn 16 weeks of material)and I am struggling. I have always been an A/B student. She is tough but because she wants to know that if she goes to the hospital that the person taking care of her knows where correct body parts are and how they function...not too much to ask!

I took BIO 206 as a minimester&it was extremely hard, which was to be expected. I know many people who received As in the class, so it is definitely possible. However, I also know some people who struggled to pass the mini. If you plan to take this as a mini take her seriously when she says it will be your life for the next 12 days.

I took this class over the summer and it was very fast paced. There is a lot of material to cover in a short amount of time. I think she did a great job of explaining the material and giving great example and ways to help you remember the information. She would tell you when something would be on the test. Work hard and study and you will do great

Prof Vietti is a great teacher for such complex topics. Her daily quizzes brought my grade down but also helped with the test. Study every day and dedicate a lot of time and you will do good. Awesome teacher! She really knows her stuff!

I took her minimester BIO 206 class and loved it! She kept us very entertained during lecture so we didn't get bored. She was very helpful in lab and would answer any questions you had. Her tests were multiple choice and short answer, but she prepared you well for them. She comes off tough, but she wants you to succeed. I would recommend her.

She is a great teacher. Loves what she teaches. She wants you to succeed but won't do it for you. You have to work for it. She' s always willing to help and answer questions. She wants you to be prepared for the career that you go into, for example nursing. So she requires you to know a lot. You have to study mostly everyday to succeed well.

WARNING: If you are taking her for 206 then please beware - as you will be spending the rest of your semester revolved around this class. Toughest class at ICC.. just be ready to study every single day if you want an A or B. She gives quizzes every class period, besides on days after an exam. Keep up w your studying and you will be fine.

I'll be completely honest this class is very hard! You will have no life. Even though it's a hard class Kim makes it a little easier. She tells funny stories and makes jokes throughout class to keep our attention and help clarify hard concepts. She's there for you and all you have to do is ask and she will help you. I highly recommend taking her.

I'm currently taking this class now and I'm not gonna lie, it's tough. You have to study EVERYDAY in order to receive the grade you want because there is way too much information to cram the night before. She's clear on what she expects and all her tests come straight from the powerpoints or what we discuss in class. She's a great teacher!

People think her class alone is hard when in fact bio 206 is hard. she has to teach the same material all the other professors do. you have to work for your grade no matter who you take it with. i found her constant use of mnemonics very helpful for me and helped me find a new study method that works for me.

You get the grade you put in. She goes off heavily on her notes. It is better to write down what she is saying rather than fill in the blanks in class, just get the notes from her office afterwards. If you work hard and show an effort she will do everything to make sure you get there. This information in 206 could save a persons life.

You EARN your grade in this class. Mini is fast paced. This is not an easy class, this is a higher level class and very important towards your career. Tests are basically everything she talks about in class and what is on her powerpoint. I suggest focusing a lot on what she has to say about a topic. When she says study, she means it! Great teacher

Vietti is a good teacher, uses a lot of analogies & alliteration to help you remember and uses stories to help connect the lecture material to real life. I think the people who complain about her are used to getting the answers spoon fed. Guess what? You're paying a lot of money to learn and you have to work for it, that's what college is...

You are going to work for your grade. Attend every class. If you cant pass her 206 class, then maybe the health care field isn't for you.

Its a hard class. You have to actually study and know what youre talking about. You cant just wing her class. However, she lectures everything that is on her tests. She gives good analogies. and she loves what she teaches. She doesnt spoon-feed you answers. If you want to go medical, she is the teacher that will prepare you the best.

Don't be freaked out by all the bad reviews. Kim can come across as sarcastic and kinda tough, but that's what makes her fun. She is soooo knowledgeable and I respected that. The only bad thing is she doesn't post grades promptly, and sometimes she moves too fast through lectures, but that's life. You have to keep up and stay on top of things.

This is a very heavy class, lot's of information and material to learn and remember. Don't be too harsh on Kim, regardless who you take this class with you WILL have to STUDY! She knows who's working hard, or hardly working, keep that in mind. She will do whatever it takes to help you succeed, but you have to be willing to put forth the effort!

Personally I was scared to take her over the summer because of working full-time and taking this over the summer. Kim was very understanding about anything. She is very smart and loves this subject. Yes you do have to take time to study to get the grade you want. I loved her class and very thankful for taking her and now have a better understanding

She is very intimidating at first but dont let that scare you. She gets a bad rap bc she is teaching a class that is incredibly hard no matter who you take it with. She genuinely wants you to succeed but she isnt going to feed you the answers. She just tries to prepare you for nursing/medical school as it will be 100x harder than ICC classes.

Dont come into this class expecting study guides for tests or answers handed to you. She teaches you things youll need to know in the heathcare field, you wont be handed a study guide for your patients. Shes insanely smart & will help you if youre putting in the effort. I highly recommend taking it with Vietti if you want to do well in nursing

My 1st impression, well she's pretty snarky, after having her in Lab I wish I would of had her in lecture. She is very knowledgable and makes sure you understand the material. She is tough but she knows her stuff. I liked her for sure.

This is the type of teacher you get frustrated with, but in the end, you realize that you should be frustrated with yourself. STUDY for at least 1.5 hours everyday. Please don't be intimidated by her. She does care, but you have to show that you care too. I was overwhelmed by it all, and had plenty of melt downs. Try your hardest! It'll be helpful.

This is NOT the class to get an easy A. You have to study every day to keep up because she moves fast. She is a great teacher who explains things with relatable examples so you can understand. You will have a quiz almost every day and few homework grades. The tests are multiple choice and essay, and they require critical thinking.

She's not a push over and will give you the grade you deserve. Not an easy course so prepare yourself to put in a lot of hours of work. Print off the slides & add any side notes/topics that she talks about in class. Essay questions are doable. Her exam questions are exact topics she talks about in class. Show up & you'll feel prepared for exams.

To be successful, I recommend watching the lectures and reading the PowerPoint slides. This keeps everything neat and tidy and simplifies difficult concepts. You really have to study hard to be successful. She was very approachable and kind when I needed help. Do good in the lab, turn stuff in on time, do extra credit. Will help you out in the end

Vietti is a great A&P professor. This class is not easy, but Vietti makes it enjoyable. She shares videos for all her lectures on Canvas, which make it easy to follow up. All test questions are from the slides and notes. All you need to do is to put the effort.This class requires critical thinking skills.

You do not need to read the book. Daily quizzes are from the previous day's lecture. Exams are based on what is discussed in class/lecture videos. She posts videos from COVID/online sections that can be reviewed as many times as you need to grasp the subject. You also have access to Dr. Griffiths lab videos. Every exam has extra credit.

Prof. Vietti She does her work with passion and she will make sure you understand difficult concept the easiest way. Her test are more of what she emphasize for you to know. if you are into human body anatomy take her you will learn a lot, if you are taking this class for fun please get someone else. Prof. Vietti she is tough grader!!!!!!

Don't let her reputation scare you! Kim is stern, but she isn't impossible to get along with. She's very blunt, don't raise your hand to answer her questions in class unless you are 100% correct or have thick skin. She really does care about you as a student & future health care professional. She won't mom you, but she'll coach you through it all.

This course will be difficult no matter who you take it with. However, Vietti teaches in a way that makes the information clear, even the more difficult topics. I recommend taking anatomy and physiology with her. She is also very caring toward her students and will go over difficult topics multiple times to make sure everyone understands it.

Vietti is AMAZING! Biology 205 is challenging but she is with you every step of the way. She wants all her students to succeed, but you do need to put in the work. She posts lecture videos and does have daily quizzes. They are only 3 points and a good way to gauge what you need to focus on. So don't let them intimidate you!

Professor Vietti is incredibly supportive and cares about her students' success. She's always available, especially before exams, offering extra help. The 3-point quizzes at the start of each class keep you on track, and extra credit is offered. Her lecture videos on Canvas are excellent for review, ensuring you're well-prepared for future classes.

Professor Vietti is PHENOMENAL! I struggled with another professor in 205 and didn't think I was smart enough to get a B or higher in 206. She put FULL faith in every single person and I wish I could take her class again and again. One time (the night before an exam) she even made time to explain an extremely difficult topic over zoom. Got an 87!

No, this class is not a cake walk but if you show up with the goal to learn and commit to studying honestly daily if not every other day for a considerable period of time (1+ hour), then it can be done. The people who said she was the worst and toughest teacher were not putting their all into it anyways. Better than the other AP teachers at ICC.

*SFMCCON nursing student! I had Vietti for A&P and it was the best academic decision I made. The class is difficult, but she prepared me for nursing school. Not only that, but she teaches at a level that prepares you for classes such as patho. The daily quizzes are worth it! Study hard now, you'll thank yourself when/if you go to nursing school.
