She's the best! Very helpful. If you have any doubt, she'd explain it over and over again until you get it. Speaks with accent but not a problem. Always gives sample questions before the tests. Essay questions on unit exams are very hard, but she gives you the questions ahead of time so you can prepare. Study hard and you'll get an A.

I must say that this class was extremely more difficult than I expected. With that said she is a good professor, but extremely suspicious if you do well. I don't get it???

Biology is a hard subject in itself and this professor was patient with our class she was amazing at lecturing and very clearly lead any issues you could email her or find her at the office. It was a rough semester but if you did everything she asked you would definitely pass. Its a lot of reading and retention but she is the best!

DONT TAKE HER CLASS, she have a HEAVY Indian accent and she speaks fast. She is horrible. She is third online next to silberman and skinner. Don't waste your time and take her class. Unless you are good at figuring things out and putting the peices together with that thick accent. HORRIBLE

I recall her lecture on day 1. She said u have to study Atleast 3/4 hours per day for this class. She was correct. She is amazing prof who knows what she is teaching. She wants her students to do good but you cant push her or beg for extra credit. She means business. U have to work very hard but she will be there for you to help. Love her

Great professor. Difficult subject but definitely manageable. Have to prepare a good amount for the exams but all the info is on her slides.

Had her back in Spring 2018. If you don't do the work you're in for an F! I had a class of 20ish people and nearly everyone dropped the class. Most people wanted to get into nursing and they had a shock with the workload. This is the building block for all health professions so you need to do well! Being in nursing is a lot of work. Stay focused!!

Tests extremely hard for NO REASON, class was online and most lecture were recorded if students attended the session(not mandatory), she talks fast and has a strong accent so its easy confused and lost on the lecture to understand. Good thing is she responds to emails quickly. I hated most was the times we were allowed to take the tests she given.

I would've been fortunate if I knew this before I took BIO 100 with this professor. I have a 4.0 GPA, and it is my second year in Kingsborough, and I've never seen this type of robotic heavy tests. 50 questions under 55 minutes, you have so little time to read the question and answer. No other professor does this who cares for student success.

Avoid taking this professor for Bio 12. If not, good luck! She's probably the hardest and most unreasonable professor I've had. I barely have time for my other classes. Every week there's a quiz or test, weekly group projects and online learning assessments. I think she assumes people have no other responsibilities but her class.

the person who reviewed BIO100 just told the truth I wanted to say. this class is for non-bio major but you have to be insanely good in BIO to succeed in this class. 50 questions under 55 minutes is a joke, if you want to deter cheating online, you can't take the right of the people to think and answer the question. Only Robots can be that fast.

I took this class thinking it was easy from reading the reviews, I thought it was going to be interesting to learn about since science is kind of my favorite subject but I was wrong. I feel like it was the teacher overall I didn't like I had issues during the whole semester with her and I did most of my work but two assignments she still failed me.

On top of weekly group assignments and online assessments which are 50 questions. If your taking this with other hard classes good luck. On the bright side she gave extra credit :)

Although bio is extremely detailed and hard she finds a way to make you understand the impossible. I definitely recommend taking her for bio if you are majoring in it.

Maybe she's different in an intro, in person course. I'm not a slacker by any means, & I actually enjoy learning which is why I say avoid this professor. She's kind, but if you have a full term or outside obligations I'd say take another professor. I ended up spending more time on this class, a pre-req, than I did my actual major course.

Be prepared to write out assignments and draw diagrams by hand. If something minor is off points will absolutely be deducted.

Is A&P a tough class? Absolutely. That's not going to change no matter what school you take it at or what professor you take it with, so you should take it with a professor who knows what she's teaching, teaches it well, and is dedicated to helping you learn. Professor Kaur is that professor!! As long as you dedicate time to study, you'll get an A.
