Great Professor. Trully genuine and kind. Very understanding. I took his class this summer. He rocked! He made lectures fun and interesting. Labs were also great. Learned a lot. Thanks Dr. Chbat :-)
Yes, agree with both previous opinions. I think he is something in between. Though, heavy accent is really big problem. not only heavy accent but also, he speaks very quietly. However, labs are fun!
He has a heavy accent. Although his exams are pretty straight forward, his lectures are very boring and uninteresting. I totally disagree with the other rating. If you can tolerate a heavy accent and manage to stay up in a 3 hour class, then he is the prof for you.
He is a very good teacher and is a very good teacher. His exams are exactly what he puts in his notes and does not have exams that were not in the information given. He knows what he is teaching and very pleasant teacher. As long as you pay attention in lecture and lab you will do well.
I can honestly say that this is one of the best teachers that i've ever had. He is a rare type -- one that actually WANTS his students to learn. He doesn't just say what the book says and leave questions unanswered. He will help you until you understand if there is something that you don't. Take this teacher and you won't regret it.
His accent is not that heavy, considering we all do have an accent. If you did well in the class then you understood what he was saying. He is an excellent teacher and would take him again if I have to. His class is very interesting if you know what you are doing in school..
Prof. Chbat is an awesome professor & wants his students to do well. Easy to get an A if you put in a little effort. That's why I took him for A&P I, A&P II, and Micro! Exams are all M/C; Final is not cumulative; offers lots of extra credit. He hands out notes of his Powerpoint presentations, and gives reviews--so you know exactly what to study.
Great teacher. He is very helpful.
He is a wonderful professor. He is very helpful and takes the time to tech his class. He makes sure that you know the material before you are tested and he will go out of his way to help you understand. He makes the class a lot of fun and interesting. TAKE HIM YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!
Just go to class and lab everyday and you should be able to get an A. He's very helpful even with his accent. Just make yourself known to him and you will do good! Test are mc
yum, yum....he rocks!
I made an A in both AP1 & 2. Just listen to his lectures and get an overall understanding of concepts. On lab day, dont leave early unless you do EVERYTHING. he notices who participates in all lectures and who doesnt.
MR. CHBAT IS AWESOME. HE REALLY TURNS YOUR INTEREST TOWARDS THE SUBJECT. HE'S DEDICATED TO HIS STUDENTS. I WOULD TAKE HIM AGAIN AND DEFINETLY RECOMMEND HIM.
He is wonderful. He is a very positive, helpfull, kind and knowledgable teacher. I Strongly recommand him. I had Microbiology and made an A.
He was very professional and knowledgeable.
without a doubt the best teacher I have had at HCC. I took Dr Chbat for Micro and he thoroughly explained the subject matter, handed out his powerpoint lectures, and answered all questions with great patience and clarity. Wants his students to understand and makes the subject matter very easy to understand. Tests are multiple choice and fair.
I had Dr. Chbat for micro and he made it so interesting, I looked forward to coming to class. He's very professional and knows his subject. He answers your questions and makes sure you understand the material. he lets you copy his powerpoint presentations and gives test review sheets, you have to never come to class and not read the book to fail.
He is awesome. if u have hard time to pass A & P or Microbiology take him. he is very helpful. His lectures are very easy to understand. so Take him.
Great teacher, not only is he hot, but he's very smart and helpful. Very patient and dedicate to his work. Without a doubt the best teacher.
He is very thorough in the lectures, tests are to the point and from the reviews, and hE makes a six hour class pass by! I will miss him hope he keeps up the great work of art, which for him is teaching. Thank you so much Dr. Chbat, S.W.
I took him for Anatomy & Physiology I and II (over the summer!) What a blessing to have an extremely helpful, encouraging, smart, organized, professional, understanding, and funny professor. He WANTS you to pass! Helpful reviews! Ample extra credit! Not only was this class interesting, it prepared me for Nursing School! Thank you Dr. Chbat!
amazing teacher!! he knows what he's talking about and makes sure you do too. he's got powerppoints and self quizzes that will help you for the tests. labs are great, hands on and very very interesting.
Awesome teacher...very helpful...easy on the eyes (makes bacteria seem sexy! HA!)
also teaches biol 2402 and microbiology
Very good professor. Makes class interesting and explains everything. Would definetly take again.
OMG..The hottest n sexiest professor I have ever have. He is very helpful and easy. I took A&P n Micor n got all A's. You need to attend his class, follow his intructions n exam review, do all the labs I guarantee you will make an A. I wanna take his class again but done with all my biol classes...Miss him :(
I worked a full time job and took 10 credit hours and made a high B. Great professor if you want to make an A
Great makes the class interesting and will help you get the understanding you need!! Just ask him and he will help you!!I'm going to take him again. I really learned something.
i took him 4 micro and he has to be da best teacher i have eva had. he's really nice and actually cares about his students not 2 mention he's pretty easy on da eyes...i reccomend him 2 everyone who wants 2 learn and make a good grade!!!
took him for both a&p1&2 and micro wonderful teacher and helpful to.as for his tests just read the powerpoint presenation,and study the self quizzes most of the test questions are based on the presenation.
Awesome teacher! He makes learning so much fun and makes sure that you understand the material before he tests you. All the tests are exactly from the review!!!
He is a GREAT Professor. Whoever said he was lazy is not true. He helped me learn alot and even sets up jeopardy games to help the class understand the chapters better. I really enjoy attending his class. One of my best professors this semester.
great proff he is really clear and isnt bothered by questions at all! lectures can be boring sometimes but his self quizes are extrememly helpful, study power point and self quizes and youll be fine.
He is a really nice professor, clear and explain everything.he answers every question you ask about in a pleasant manner.he gives extra credit, help in the lab, self quizzes. JUST TAKE HIS CLASS..hes HOT
He is a great Professor. I would definitely recommend!
At first I thought this class was going to be impossible, but he grades fairly. He's a great Professor, Really friendly and always ready to help. Everything on the test is from his lectures/powerpoint and self quizes which are all basically broad concepts he goes over in class to make sure you understand, I would Highly recommend taking his class!
CHBAT IS THE BEST PROFESSOR YOU CAN GET IN HCC. HE IS CONSCENTIOUS, HELPFUL AND VERY PATIENT. HIS LESSON NOTES ONLINE AND HIS SELF QUIZZES ARE SO HELPFUL. HE GENUINELY CARES FOR HIS STUDENTS. TOOK HIM IN MICRO., A&P I AND 2 AND MADE A'S ALL THROUGH
he is the best whoever says that he is hard must be very dump and should not take biology he gave me hope i lked him alot
Worst professor! i took him due to the 2401 students who had taken him because they said everything is online submission! NOT REALLY! his tests were extremly hard and he was very shady! trust me! im a 4.0 student and thought his tests and quizes were very challenging! lab tests are really hard!
WONDERFUL TEACHER! HAD HIM FOR A&P 1-2 PASSED AND HE WAS A LOT OF HELP! LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING HIM FOR MICRO!
Prof. Chbat was very helpful .I would strongly recommend him if you are having a hard understanding A/P .He breaks it down so you can undrestand it and you want to learn more.
Tests are hard. DO NOT TAKE HIM. Attandence is important.
Awsome! Knows his stuff... always willing to help... GREAT TEACHER
Professor chbat is an awesome professor. I took him for a&p 1&2 and also microbio. I strongly recommend him! He gives very detailed lectures and as long as you print out the notes and study them you are good to go. He does say many times through his lecture what is on the following exam. Don't really need a book! I made an A without one
Taking his anatomy class, enjoying it so far. He's extremely thorough and very reasonable about his expectations in the class. I am learning a lot!
Dr. Chbat, is the most dedicated professor that I have had the pleasure to learn from. He is passionate about teaching, and it shows in his lessons. He keeps you motivated and interested. His notes are accurate and his study guides and power points are very organized and helpful! He is patient and fair. Thanks Dr. Chbat! see you this spring! :)K.
Personally...I didn't like the way he teaches. Uses only powerpoint. Bought the new edition book, about $210.00 never used it onece. Gave reviews but question were totally different than test. Has accent but it is manageable. I recommend do not take.
I cannot emphasize enough how much I LOVED this class. This teacher is very willing to work with you. You literally have to try to fail because it's that easy (if you keep up with the reading, do the practice quizzes, and labs). Our class loved him so much that a majority of us registered for his A&P 2402 before our semester was even over!
He's ok...he's not a good as everyone rate him...he teaches off of powerpoint slides & don't like u to ask 2 many questions..a few is fine..but if he feel like u should know what ur asking him he will not explain until u get it. I know Micro is not an easy class..but he makes it a lil harder than it should be! 1 plus is his test r m/c & he curves.
I think he is one of the best A&P teachers to take, I took his online class and I loved it he has such great outlines and notes that makes the class less stressful. His test and quizzes are simple, but you have to study the material. Do not buy the book, he does not use it. Overall he is awesome and take him if you want to pass.
Dr. Chbat is a great professor, If you fail his class it's only because you don't want to go to school or study... He is gives you all the material u nedd to learn and do great in class. I definitely would take him again. He is awesome!!!
Very good teacher. Book is used for reference to his power points and lecture notes. He's willing to help everybody. I recommend him to everyone!
I love this Professor I wish he teached Chemistry too. He Is a great teacher and Learned alot from him Would totally take him again but since I'm doen with all my science only chem left
Very good instructor. I made an A in A&P 1 and a B IN A&P 2. I could have made a A but I was kinda stresss with some other teachers. He is very understanding and helpful. The test are easy when you pay attention in class and do the self quizes. It's not a push over but you can make good grades.
Very great professor..very intense 3wk course but worth the stress @ time. I made an "A" and would recommend him highly to any nursing student determined to get an "A"
Outstanding. HCC does not have a better professor. Working on my second degree so I've been around the block before. If you study and attend class you will get a greade equal to your level of input. Makes AP interesting. Taking him for Micro.
He's a great professor. Except I had to drop it last spring due to personal problems I was going through and therefore could not concentrate. I took him for 2401 and made an A. But I'll definitely take him again for Spring. Teaches at the Spring Branch location. A must to attend every lab.
I was not impressed with this prof. This is a no joke class! Do not take him unless you want your GPA to fall! I took him for A&P1 and an in A&P2 I sooo regret it! I made a B in A&P1 and will probably make one is A&P2. I am doing the 5 week class. Maybe he is better during a normal semester..but for the summer RUN!! tons of reading! too much info!
ABSOLUTELY LOOOOOOVE this professor!!! I have never learned so much in a class like I have with him! he knows what he's talking about and eventhough it's a hard class he explains it in a way that it is easy to understand. Always willing to work with you and his test are easy if you study and take the self quizes. I got an A in A&P I and B in II
Excellent professor. It's a shame he is going to be in Qatar for two years. He's definitely gonna be missed from the Houston Area.
Sad, I posted continual comments here to give students a lot of help in picking the right professor. But sadly Ratemyprofessor did not post it. What's up with that???? I did not curse nor said anything wrong except highly praised the professor! I took a lot of my time to post 3 continual comments last friday and it's 9/26/11 now. Hmm..
ABSOLUTELY LOOOOOOVE Dr. Chbat!I have never learned so much in a class like I have with him! he knows what he's talking about and eventhough it's a hard class he explains it in a way that it is easy to understand. Always willing to work with you and his test are easy if you study and take the self quizes. I got an A in A&P I & II. too bad he's gone
Really Dr Manhal very kind and helpful. Also he used simple and clear way to teach us .I advise you when you want to get A be attention and do self quizzes. I am waiting the summer to take with him a lab.
I should not have dropped him last spring due to some personal problems. I'm taking Dr. Koshy right now. She's good but she doesn't share her Study Notes nor PP Slides. Yet she expects u to be ahead of ur reading. Really??? We miss you terribly Dr. Chbat. Please come back. :(
I enjoyed this class. Dr Chbat kept the class interesting (it was hybrid) and clearly explained any questions I had. It's a tough subject, so be prepared to study, but he makes it as easy as this class could be, and keeps it fun.
Great makes the class interesting and will help you get the understanding you need!! Just ask him and he will help you!!I'm going to take him again. I really learned something. Wonderful. A for this class!!GREAT
Dr. Chbat is very passionate about his class. He has a very clear way of teaching A&P I and offers plenty of resources to help. If you follow his lecture and study the material, you should make an A, at worst a B! He wants to make sure you do well. He will discuss with you any questions or comments about the class. I highly recommend him!
Only complaint is that i feel like he concentrates too much on little things rather than big things.We're trying to save a leg, not a leg cell!this class was easy b/c of prior knowledge and he is clear, nice, organized, helpful. Always informs ahead of time if class is cancelled. I think im looking at a "B" b/c i failed one of the test. STUDY!(:
He goes out of his way to help you pass anatomy and physiology. He is great.
Dr. Chbat is a good professor. I was a bit apprehensive because some of his ratings for 2402, but I took his hybrid course and its completely doable. Havent received my final scores yet, but Im fairly sure I got a B in the course.
I took his hybrid class and really liked the format and his grading scale. Lecture and most of our tests were online, labs and lab exams plus the final were in person. As long as you do the work and study for the tests it is pretty easy to make an A. I plan on taking him next semester for A&P II as well!
Professor Chbat is a great teacher, the best teacher I have had the pleasure of learning from! He actually cares about his students learning.Hes very passionate about the subject, explains thoroughly,is also very patient with all students.he is a very handsome man! And also very respectable.Do Hw,extra credit, attend class n study, you'll succeed.
Great instructor, I took his A&P I hybrid class and it was a breeze. You need to show up to class, do your online assignments and complete all your labs, but I think he is a fair grader and he gives you the tools you need to succeed. I am taking him again for A&P II this semester. Chbat is probably one of HCC's best A&P instructors!
Dr. Chbat makes this class interesting and you will learn a lot from him. His class is easy to pass, but there will be challenging questions as well on his tests. He gives a lot of bonus point opportunities as well. He is very passionate about teaching hi students and you can tell he truly loves his job. His class fills up very fast!
Dr Chbat, you are the best. Took him during mini semester.
Loved his class taking him for A&P II can not wait till fall. His classes fill up fast.
I take BIOL 2402 as hybrid class and feel a little bit disappointed. I love to attend in his lecture because he explain everything clearly. In hybrid, you only have to show up once every TWO weeks for the lab. No lecture during the whole semester. A minus for that!you learn on your own.But the online test is what on the quiz! Yay! 3 attemps/quiz
I take the on-campus class.His lecture is very clear. However, due the load of the course, you had better read the book before comming to class, so you can get everything faster. Lab is helpful. There are 4 test and 1 comprehensive final. You have many pop quizzes to earn bonus point. So, keep review every chapter. Dont wait until the last minute!
Dr.Chbat is a great teacher, he really cares that his students learn and grades very fairly. If you study, your grades will reflect that. He's also a good looking man by the way lol
Professor Chbat is an amazing professor he is very helpful! he gives us alot of extra credit ( pop quizzes) thats very convenient. His exams are never hard all you have to do is study and read and make sure you understand the material. he will explain things to you over and over ask until you get ir he is very understanding! GREAT looking man btw
Dr. Chbat is one of the best professor I ever had. He gives a bunch of extra credits, extra resources online for review, extra hours to study. I had him biol2401, then I am taking him again for my biol2402. Just study! Easy A!
Dr. Chbat is a extremely great TEACHER! He knows his stuff of course because he is a DOCTOR but is so approachable and humble. He is there to make you a better student and will answer all of your questions without making you feel dumb. This is a tough subject so you have to do your part also, but having him as a instructor is a plus!
Professor Chbat is very organized, enthusiastic, and inspirational. He has wide knowledge about A&P. Moreover, his preparation, such as power points, outline of chapters, and practiced questions, is very helpful for student to study this course. Focus on quiz, and practice questions from learning web, you will be fine.
Hands down, Dr. Chbat is the best professor I have had at HCC and Lonestar. What helped me the most is that the professor shows you examples by using the skeleton or pointing to the body. I am a visual learner and WILL be taking him for A&P2. Hard class with any prof. Do you work and you'll pass. Didn't buy the book and passed with a B.
Took him for the mini winter term & wish I'd taken him for 2401! GREAT lectures. Clear cut. He likes participation to know that you understand. Class was tough but then again we only had 3.5wks to learn the material! Quizzes & test were at home. Lab and final were in person. Review sheets for ALL chapters. Labs were fun. Do the work and easy A or B
Best Teacher ever! Took both a&p1 and a&p 2 at HCC. Very interesting class - I learned a lot from both class. He explained everything clearly and gives review for exams. Study and go to his class. I really wished all the teachers were like him at HCC.
Dr Chbat is a great prof. It was a very intense 5 wk course but he makes the course possible to balance work & school. Make sure to do all the quizzes (per chpt), he gives review for his lablec exams, and provide opportunity for extra credit. He's the type that would like to see his students succeed. Highly recommend him! Thanks Dr Chbat!!!!!!!!!
Dr. Chbat is extremely knowledge but he tends to talk really fast and zooms through the PowerPoint. Helpful guide: quiz answers are found in his outlines, tests answers are found in PowerPoints + book+ review + self quizzes, test reviews and self quizzes are found in his learning web. Youre welcome. If you're smart, take my advice.
He is beyond what a student would ask for from a professor. extremely knowledgeable and super helpful. this professor sets the standards so high, other professors cannot even compare. he is a great professor and really wants his students to learn well. good looking man as well :)
Do not recommend
A good professor. Will take again in A&P II.
Absolutely wonderful professor. He is very kind and sincere. He wants you to learn and do well and expects the best out of you. He is very considerate in changing test dates for the whole class if everyone agrees they are not ready. The material is tough but he gives lots of practice quizzes, pop quizzes and resources. Highly recommend him.
I took Chbat for A&PII about three years ago and I still remember the information he taught from lectures/lab. If I could, I would definitely take him again. There is NO reason at all for someone to fail his class. He provides you with all the materials you need to do well and succeed. Don't be lazy, do your work, and do your best. Easy A for sure.
You should be take his class. I have finish his class in this summer. Dr chbat is the best professor in HCC. He organize the program very reasonable. 17 quiz for 17 chapter, 4exam, 1 lab report and 1 lab exam. quiz in the lecture, exam have on you power point, He had review sheet for lab exam include 50 question. Take his class.
AMAZING teacher! Knows his stuff and has pretty good lectures. He does give pop quizzes but they are for extra credit points, trust me that are good to have! Wish I could take him for all my sciences!! Very helpful!
I enjoyed taking A&P with Dr. Chbat. He is a great professor that cares about his students. Take him! Best Professor at H.C.C BTW: Very handsome man
I took a hybrid course- all quizzes and tests were at home online with CRAZY long time limits AND you could retake them for better grades! Show up for lab and use flashcards to study. Nothing was unexpected. He wants you to do well. The final was a BREEZE compared to what I was prepared for. HIGHLY recommend
My favorite professor by far!!!!!!!!! He is also a hottie. Like hot hot. Funny. Great lectures, gives study guides.
Very organized & clear Professor. The work outside of class is time-consuming, especially since you want to read before lectures, but he tries to make it as easy as possible for you with still getting all the information that you need. You can tell he wants the best for you but to still learn as much as you can. I have a lot of respect for him.
BEST PROFESSOR EVER. I took him for A&P 1 lab and lecture and he is amazing. He's very smart and caring and gives tons of extra opportunities. I HIGHLY recommend him. Quizzes are online for lecture but you get 3 attempts and keep the highest grade. He is the best professor I've ever had and really cares about his students. Always willing to help!!
Great Professor. You need to study and show up to class. extra credit given. I actually learned and enjoyed leaning in this class.
He is awesome! His tests are a little hard because he tests very details, but if you following his review sheet, you can get A. He might be hard but not strict. His lab tests are easy.
Best class I have ever taken at HCC. He is very passionate about this subject and does an amazing job teaching it. Exams are fairly easy if you pay attention during lectures and study the exam reviews he hands out. Definitely take professor chbat!!
For someone who hates anatomy, Dr Chbat do not hesitate to help others especially for those who have jobs. all quizes are online with the chances of 3 attempts to help you learn and pass. Study is a must for the exams, just remember to read read read the assigned chapter and pay attention to his lecture. 5 discussion and non stop extra credit.
BEST PROF. EVER!!!!!He makes A&P easy to learn. Read your textbook and go by his powerpoints. They are more understandable than the book. In addition, get ready to take jeopardy quizzes during the semester, but they are fun tho. Study hard! His tests are fair. The sad thing is that his classes get full before you notice. I definitely recommend him.
Very good professor. He gives many tools to help you succeed and doesn't overpower with information to fill your brain with. He doesn't try to trick you. He gives good reviews in lecture, and great study tools for lab. He gives quizzes as extra points. If you're hesitant, don't be. Take him, you'll pass and you'll actually learn something.
I took this professor for Anatomy 1 lab. Best decision I could have ever made! You won't regret taking this professor. He really cares about you passing. Of course you have to show up to class to learn. He explains everything very clearly and in a way that you'll understand and actually learn the material. Please take him. His classes fill up fast!
Seriously the best professor. Willing to help you at all costs but you need to study to earn that A. As a nursing major I am happy I took him and feel confident about the subject. Word to the wise.. take him for lab and lecture. I had classmates that had different teachers for both and it can be a bit difficult.
I took this professor for Anatomy 1 lab, he is a great professor, knows how to help you learn difficult subjects, tests are easy, but challenging, labs are incredibly easy. He is eager with what he does, helps you with questions you have, and puts in grades almost immediately
I don't know what to say but, God bless this man. Try his class and you won't be disappointed, Just do your works on time, email him with your HCC email, he will reply as soon as he sees it. he doesn't want you to miss anything, you just have to ask, trust me, he will help/advise you on what to do if he can't. Final exam is from the class exams
Took hybrid online, 3.5 wks to learn everything, it was tough. All test+quiz online, midterm(webcam), final in person. Got a 100 on test+midterm but the final was hard. It was nothing like his usual exam questions, somehow got a 72 while guessing half the test, class avrge was a 56. Study only the study guide for the final rather than past exams
He is great professor, respected, caring and patient. Extra credit quizes helps a lot. You still have to study and know the material but he makes it easy to understand and follow. Participation is important :) Will definitely take him again but his classes fill soooo fast
Took him for both ap 1 and 2 and had no complaints. I recommend taking him in person if you struggle with pushing yourself to study for online classes. Answers questions and emails promptly. Assignments/Quizzes/Lectures will help you earn A on exams which are pretty straight forward. Final will be the easiest exam you take.
This professor knows his stuff and is good at explaining things. Be prepared to study bc it is anatomy after all. As long as you study you will do fine and it can be a fun class.
Took him for AP 1 and 2 wish I could take him for microbiology. He loves what he teaches and his work isn't hard just pay attention, do the labs, and study for tests you'll do great. He sometimes does extra credit that can be helpful, I recommend him for anyone looking for a good semester !
The best professor in HCC. He loves what he teaches. The subject is not easy but he makes it really easy for the students to understand. Just take notes on what he writes on the board, do the labs, and study the labs for the quizzes & exams. 4 quizzes and 2 exams. You wont regret taking his class. I am so thankful I took him as my Anatomy professor
Best teacher I have taken. I loved his class so much. Professor Chabt is a born teacher. Anatomy become my favorite subject only because of how he taught.
Hands down one of the best professors I have had. I loved his classes. Quick at grading and posting on canvas. Take his classes they fill up quick.
Best professor ever!!! I took him for both AP1 and AP2 and I learned a lot from him! Wish there are more professors like him
GREAT PROFESSOR!! Makes learning easy and fun. Gives pop quizzes for credit. Best professor ever!!
I took Prof. Chbat for Spring 2018, online class 16 weeks. I struggled a bit at first BUT only because I was using his power points as a guide instead of reading the chapters. Once I got the hang of how to study it was fairly easy. It is all mainly memorization. Having a good lab teacher helps as well for bones, senses, brain etc. HE IS AWESOME!
Great teacher. Featured on the textbooks. Makes anatomy easy to understand. Great sense of humor.
Best professor ever!
Hes a greatest professor ever. He gives you pop quizzes before every test. Listening carefully what he taught in class, study it, and easy get A, you dont need to study a whole chapter, I promise. Highly recommended. Ive already taken his for my AP2 in this semester.
Doctor Schbat cared for his students and made sure everyone always understood the lecture. He's extremely knowledgeable, caring, and provides numerous opportunities to improve your grade. Couldn't recommend anyone else more
Took his class online in the summer, he posted everything upfront with the due dates so you can work at your own pace. The third exam was an in person exam, does NOT give reviews. Make sure you take the homework serious, it can help your average out. He listed extra credit in his syllabus, but never gave the opportunity to receive it.
Took him for AP2 LAB in the summer. Lab book is required and thats where the exams come from. Study the lab manual and you'll be fine! He's truly amazing and very caring. Makes you feel comfortable with asking him questions.
This is the best professor I have ever took at houston community college. He is truly caring and will work with you. His lectures are amazing. I wish I could take him for all my sciences.
I LOVE THIS PROFESSOR!!!!!!!! He is AMAZING! I would honestly recommend him to anyone and everyone, I wanted to take him again for another class but his class fills up FAST!!!!!
Very good professor. He understands the material and he knows how to teach it. He will not take the class for you, but if you put in the effort he will too. Great Prof for adults going back to school. Very understanding of non-traditional students. No-nonsense, do the work yourself kind of guy.
Excellent Professor. Very kind, explains material very well. So respectful of his students and their well-being. Highly recommended.
Explains material very clearly. Easy A but must attend class in order to pass.
Take this Professor you won't regret it his online course is very organized and everything is open to complete except the tests. There were four major exams two in person and two online homework and quizzes for each chapter and two discussions in which you have to answer case study questions and yes he does give extra credit.
He's the best college professor you will have. He's respectful, kind, and builds confidence in people. He really believes in you and wants you to do your best. He cares about his work, his students and their success. You will not be disappointed in his education and his learning techniques. He's hard to get into because his classes are excellent.
I never write reviews but Prof. Schbat really deserves it. He is an AMAZING professor!!! Nice, professional, knows his stuff, clear on grading and explains everything in depth. If you NEED to pass with an A/B definitely take him. Provides reviews, extra credit, and a little homework. If you study/just listen you wont be caught off guard w/ anything
Great professor , took him for summer course made it super easy
5 weeks summer session. Provided exams review which was specific on what the tested material would be. It is important to show up for class obviously being that it is a lab class and everything is hands-on. Lab book is an easy A, just make sure you DO IT. Exams are based on the lab book and lecture slides with very specific questions.
I would have preferred for him to give us more resources in our online class. It was literally the hardest class I've ever taken. I will not take him online anymore.
I took him for his A and P 1 lab course. We had 4 tests (2 MC and matching and 2 practical-written exams). The two written lab exams were the bones and muscles using diagrams and lab models. He gave you a list of the bones and muscles that you needed for the exam. He also gave reviews for each test. Lab reports were easy. Microscope exam was easy!
I took this class for A&P 1 and this was an online class. I had to drive to Katy to take the final exam and all the tests was recorded. You had to be on camera for each exam to make you not cheating. Also the exams was based on the book not the study guides. In order to passed this class you have to read each chapter and focus on just this class.
Dr. Schbat is a blessing, his ppts are organized and meticulous. You can seriously skip reading the book with his ppt (wouldnt recommend it). We are tested on material we actually learn and can recall, no tricky questions. I took him Lab/Lecture As on both. If youre passionate about your major youll put in the work and get your desired grade.
One of my favorite professors! He was great, theres not a lot of homework. His lectures are good, he encourages you to participate in class. Do the pop quizzes! They are just extra credit opportunities & you cant be hurt by them! Tests are easy. Very smart guy! Would take again for sure!!
He's awesome! I wish all professors were like him!
You have to study for this class, however, if you do you will do well. The tests all come from the study material and the quizzes. There are so many classes I have taken in the past to where you would study the material, attend every lecture and then you would get the test it would be completely different. He is ethical and you will learn!
3 lab exams (60%)-over certain lab exercises, lab reports-easy if you do them (20%), lab final (10%), Pre/Post lab quizzes (20%)-easy if you read the lab. All exams were multiple choice with 50 questions each (labeling as well). He was a great professor and I highly recommend him for lab. He also gives pop quizzes which are extra credit- do them!
Barely interacts with the class, so what exactly are you paying for? There should be more online resources included to aid with comprehension. Also he should offer a live online component. Exam review for finals only. It's a lot of material to synthesize by yourself so reviews for each exam would be better. Not the worst, but not the best.

This is a Hard subject no matter which professor you have. Make sure you have lots of time to study if not you wont pass, he answers messages quickly.
One of the most clear and organized professors ive ever had. Made this class as easy as it could be. Also a very sweet person.
Professor Chbat is the BEST!! This class isn't necessarily an easy A, however, he provides us with countless resources to aid in our studies. We study 4 chapters every 2-3 weeks & have about 12 assignments (hw, quiz, and practice for each chapter) due at the end of those 2 weeks. They're all SUPER easy! Take this class you won't regret it! 10/10!!!
My favorite professor I've ever had! Available outside of class. This class is not an easy course but he definitely made the semester easy by providing support in or outside of class. Explains material well. You HAVE to study and put your part but he is a great professor and will get you through this course. Wish we had more like him!
I had read great reviews about this professor. He is inconsiderate considering all classes are online. He is responsive and easy to reach out but he does not really provide enough helpful resources to help you succeed. His reviews have nothing to do with his exams. Your life will revolve around anatomy as you will have to teach yourself.
This class is like being adrift at sea with nothing more than a piece of rope and a small rubber tire: you might make it to the shore alive, but it'll be a fight until the very end! There is nothing easy here. If it's online, you will be teaching yourself and the topic if DENSE!! Lack of a physical book makes it harder. His outlines are a joke.
I've taken him for both BIOL2301 & BIOL2302. Self sufficient class. Says he'll give lots of extra credit, but doesn't actually. only 1-2% on your final grade. Exam reviews are bad and generic. However, he is EXTREMELY lenient on Exams 3 & 4. Absolutely no way you can fail those exams. Overall okay time, but a LOT of information to absorb. Good luck
The material is hard, but don't worry about your grade and just focus on learning because your average will skyrocket at the end of the course. There's extra credit in the form of pop quizzes which adds 3 points to your average (if you do all of it correctly), and he drops your lowest test score, so my average went up 6 points at the last minute!
The subject itself is demanding, but I had a pleasant experience in this class. Professor Schbat replies to your inquiries quickly and gives pop quizzes. At the end of the semester, he decides the weight of those quizzes depending on how well the class did. This course is self-taught, so find what works for you and pay attention to class.
This professor is amazing. he help a lot students and there is 4 exams at the end of semester he will drop the lowest grade. he is the best professor. he will not give you stress during the semester and for every chapter he has the practice quiz with study guide. anything he say will be on the exam. nothing from outside. take him
He is a great professor. He is organized and his lab classes are so informative. He is an experienced professor who cares about the students. His practical lab was my best lab course experience. His exams contains all he has taught in the class and nothing out of content. I definitely recommend you to take whatever course he offers.
I enjoyed Dr. Schbat's A&P Lab I class! He was a man of his word. He announced the dates of pop quizzes and provided study guides based on the exams. Most exams were on bubble sheets in person. Questions focused on labeling models. Dr. Schbat made the extra credit worth a lot and dropped some of the lowest homework grades to show his appreciation.
Prof. Manhal is one of my favorite professors because he cares about his students and wants you to do well. He is clear and direct about what you need to learn for his exams. He also gave us time to look at our previous incorrect questions so we could see what we did not know prior to the final exam.
Manhal Schbat was one of the best instructors I had. It was an eight weeks class with a lot of homework, but I made it :)
This guy is the goat, you're not going to find a better lab teacher than him. Exams are easy bake.
Totally take this class he is a great teacher. Would take again!!!!
This professor is the best! Engaging lectures, easy exams, and no need for the textbook. I used unstuck AI to prepare and breezed through the class with a great grade.
I've never had a professor as great as Dr. Chbat at HCC. If you have the opportunity to take him DO IT and don't hesitate! His lectures are engaging and interesting and you can definitely tell he cares about his students succeeding and loves what he does! He tells you exactly what you need to know on the exam so just spend time on the test reviews.
TAKE HIM !! BEST LAB PROFESSOR EVER !!
I recommend taking him for lab! It's a chill class with minimal busy work. Exams are 70% of your grade but he usually allows a 2nd attempt to improve your score. There's also extra credit so make sure to do that and we even did a heart dissection. Lab report is 20% of your grade and group project is 10% so it's not much assignments graded on.
