I'm still "in progress" with Anatomy 1, but this guy is helpful. He doesn't just hand out grades, but he is very down-to-earth.
He is a GREAT teacher, very blunt and cool to talk to. This isn't a blow off class of coarse and it is a hard class anyway, but he makes it fun. I enjoy going to his class. He likes when people ask questions and if no one understands he has no problem going over until everyone gets it. I highly reccomend this teacher!
His GREAT!!!! Very down to earth and never makes you fell stupid when you ask questions. Tests can be hard, if you do not study your notes or miss notes on lab and lecture. I thought it was going to be boring but it turn out to be a very interesting class. I highly recommend him for Zoology!!!!
Awesome professor, he makes class interesting and fun! Take good notes and study them and you’ll do good. Don't bother to ask any questions he'll be more than happy to help you out.
He is an awsome teacher. At first seemed a little dry, but it is just that he is REALLY into Bugs, (mainly spiders). He is an Awesome professor, down to earth, and will not treat you like you are stupid by asking a question. He is genuine and cares for his students. Take notes just as he gives them, and PAY ATTENTION! Attendance is a MUST !!!! He h
It had been 9 years since I had been in school, I had not taken A&P1 yet and I got an A in this class. The lecture tests require a lot of studying. There are always a few fill in the blank. I took this class in the 5 wk summer session at 7:30 in the AM and never fell asleep! His lectures alwas kept me interested. I would highly recomend him.
Awesome instructor! Professor Barron is really funny and is generally easy to understand. He has a way to explaining complicated things so that everyone understands. He gives a lot of information, so attendance and note taking are a MUST. I highly recommend him.
Great teacher. Good sense of humor. Finds ways to help everyone understand it better. Take a lot of notes and organize them well. I color coded my phylum, class, order and genus species names and it helped a lot.
Great teacher, truly loves what he does. Very helpful, and takes the time at adhear to your personal needs. I highly recommend his class.
Great Teacher. Makes class funny and interesting. He tells lots of cheesey jokes and makes class fun. What is on your notes is whats on your test. Tests are very straight forward. Makes sure everyone understands topics and helps any time it is needed. Highly reccomend.
He is a great teacher, he keeps things interesting. I attended almost every lecture, but i didn't study as much as I should have. My final grade was a "D" His tests are difficult, so you need to read the textbook A LOT! oh, and his labs are quite difficult too...
Awesome professor. Very understanding and laid back. The class in general is quite difficult, just study and you will do fine. When I say study, I mean don't plan on doing it the night before...I HIGHLY recommend this professor.
Very clear with regard to the material that is testable. He is focused and energetic in his teaching. Always available (office hours and by e-mail) to answer questions. Made biology rather painless and even enjoyable.
Dr. Barron is a great instructor! He loves biology, especially insects!! He has fun stories too!
He's an awesome intsructor. I would take him again! Tests are from straight from the notes taken in class. Gives plenty of extra credit opportunity. Funny and Hot...in a science professor-type way.
Love him. love him. Awesome professor to take especially if you don't like Zoology, he makes it fun. Take good notes and you'll do well!!!!!!!
This class requires a lot of study time in order to get high grades. Read the chapters. Passed his class =). Teacher is cool and always willing to help.
He is awesome!! I didn't even use the book, his powerpoints have all the information that you need for his tests and he tells you what is the most important. He is really nice, he tries to be kinda funny its sorta cute but yea, hes a really great teacher! It's a pretty hard class but just ask questions and he will help you out. :)
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! Keeps lectures & labs interesting. Really helpful, approachable, incredibly intelligent. Presents material in a way which makes it impossible to not learn. Great sense of humor, plus a smile that can light up the room. Likely a Monty Python fan, which is always a plus. 3 lecture tests, 1 cumulative; 3 lab tests.
The man is an amazing instructor. Do yourself a favor and TAKE HIM!!!
Took his Zoology class over the summer. He is AWESOME. He really doesn't give you busy work, writes his notes out as he teaches you, explains things & doesn't mind questions. LOVES what he does.. loves his science. He gives x-credit. Just take good notes, study and he will help you if you need him to. Highly reccomend him. Also a fun guy who cares!
Awesome guy. For reals. The dude has mad understanding on how to make learning interesting. I would for sure recommend him for Zoology. Best prof i've had at SJ along with McRee. Really funny and personable not afraid to admit if he's wrong (which is rare though) take him. You will definintely not regret it. Peace.
Really nice guy, laidback, loves cats and biology stuff. He likes answering questions and telling interesting stories and listening to interesting stories. I recommend him because he's nice, funny, and teaches well. He cares about what he teaches, has a passion for it, which is important.
Great Prof. Class does require study time. Take notes from his power points.
Mr. Barron is awesome. He actually helps you and answers any type of question you might have. He is a very extremely smart man, and grades easy with curves on every test you take. He is super funny and is down to earth.
Awesome Teacher...Makes class intersting, and answers all your question..He is there 2 help...Alot of my friends told me it was a hard class, was scared to failed it, but I passed w/an A, is not hard, is fun, ppl u just have 2 study his notes, I did not even opened the txtbook, do buy the lab book though u will use it daily..Highly recomend him,cla
Hes a really good teacher! he has a awesome personality! this class is a little tough but what science class isnt? lots of memorization and notes, im horrible at science and i actually made a B! hes a great prof.!
He explained things clearly and almost always used some kind of example or funny story (he is really funny) to make what he was explaining more clear. He seemed very knowledgeable on what he was teaching. The tests were tough and there were lots of notes but it wasn't just busywork. He really wanted us to learn. Take his class!!
Super awesome professor! Has passion for what he teaches! Lecture test were hard but I advise you to review them after every class day! He is very willing to help and explain things. It's ok to be absent in lecture but not ok in lab especially during disections! Study very hard for lecture test and the frog parts(all)!
He is amazing! He always has his door open for questions or if you need help. you can always reach him by email because he DOES repsond. the lab book is a must. i recommend not getting a used one because this way you can write and make your own notes in it. he doesnt make you write any papers and extra credit is available on every test! take him!
If you think Gilmore is good check this guy i like him better cause hes teaches really good like gilmore minus the ego he is supper nice and grades competively (aka curves) and makes sure you know what you need to know he also reviews took him in the summer and got a A+ and there was a few ppl that didnt study and still passed cause hes that good
Person below is correct. I didn't fall asleep in his class (even at 7:30AM) and that's really saying something for me. He's cool like the Fonz and super smart. He goes off on tangents pretty often, but it's always something interesting. He's definitely one of the best (and funniest) lecturers at San Jac. I would absolutely take him again.
He is a great teacher. Show up for class he goes mostly by notes do not waste money on exp. book you will be fine without it. Buy lab book only. He does not try to trick you. Good straightforward honest prof.
He is a great teacher. Show up for class he goes mostly by notes do not waste money on exp. book you will be fine without it. Buy lab book only. He does not try to trick you. Good straightforward honest prof.
Great teacher. Goes by his notes. Don't need textbook just buy lab book. Very precise and tells you waht exactly is goiong to be on the test. Makes jokes and keeps class interesting. Very fair. Biology is not my favorite subject but I love this class.
This guy knows his stuff! He ROCKS as a teacher - you will learn the material, and you'll enjoy doing so. Most helpful prof I've encountered. He's also quite entertaining!DO NOT get textbook. DO get the lab manual. DO take his notes verbatim off the board (or get'em from a pal).DO show up for lab. Take him if you can! You'll be glad you did.
This prof. is AWESOME! Not only does he know what he's talking about, he is SO willing to help and whenever necessary. He's pretty funny, so class passes by fast. DON'T buy the book! Lab Manual is a MUST! Take him if you can, i HIGHLY recommend him!
This is the best teacher I have had by far. Barron will go out of his way to make sure you understand the material. He makes a point to be available whenever you need him. The tests are always much easier than they seem and are straight from your notes, he won't try to trick you. He is really nice and easy to follow. He is a very funny guy too.
Professor Barron is AWESOME. He's extremely smart and is full of interesting (although sometimes useless) information. I absolutely love this class and I'm actually going to take Botany with him next semester. He's extremely helpful and funny albeit a little dorky. But as long as you take all the notes and study, you'll be golden.
Prof. Barron is by far one of the BEST science teachers I've ever encountered. He has great teaching skills, a hilarious sense of humor and genuinely loves what he does! If you need to take any Bio class I HIGHLY recommend him...you won't be disappointed! Took him for Zoo & absolutely loved the class.
Paul Barron is one of the most talented professors at any SJC campus. He cares about your success and makes science fun. Take this teacher for any science class he is teaching
Prof. Barron should run the whole science dept! He is by far the best prof. I've ever had, he makes class fun and interesting. In addition to being clear and very helpful. His positive influence actually made me consider a science major! He provides handouts, e-files and all you need to get an A+. I didn't buy textbook just labbook. Must take him!
His class is totally awesome. he is always there when you need help and you can tell he loves what he does. His lectures are interesting and I actually looked forward to his class. Def. take him!
I absolutely LOVE this professor. He is fair and realy wants all his students to succeed. He realy knows how to "dumb" things down for those of us who aren't science majors :-) Took him for Zoo & Bot both easy A's. SHow up to to class and take notes verbatum. Didn't use textbook, DID use lab book! He is wonderful! YOU MUST TAKE HIM!
great teacher. helped me whenever i had a question and made science interesting for me. He is a must take.
Hes cool and funny, i had him for zoology he made it fun to dissect, no homework but take good notes and study and you would definantly pass.
He is a wonderful professor, I would recommend him to anyone who wanted to learn. GREAT NOTES,WILLING TO HELP, AND EXTREMELY NICE, AND WOULD TAKE HIM AGAIN!PLUS PLUS PLUS
Great Professor. Always there to help, but the class was very difficult. I studied 3-5 hours before an exam and still did not do so well. He never ever ever is absent and rarely dismisses early. Be prepared to take lots of notes.
Two words; AWESOME PROFESSOR!!He is very helpful. You can tell that he loves what he does. Alot of note taking, you MUST have Lab book, but overall very good professor. I learned alot and he is never, never absent.
GREAT PROFESSOR!! He is so nice and helpful and willing to go over any material multiple times with you! Very funny and makes biology interesting. His lab tests are straight forward and easy if you study!! The lecture tests are harder and require more studying time!! But overall loved this professor!
Okay so I hate any type of science...no interest @ all. signed up 4 this class to get it over with. it was the best decision ever! prof Barron is awesome! you MUST study to pass but if I can earn an A then anyone can. i'm already signed up for his botany class. TAKE HIM!
I loved this class! Professor Barron was so understanding and made everything so clear. The way he spoke, he was goofy. His goofiness about a topic made things stick out in my mind while taking the test. I had to drop this class because of my brother's illness, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was the first class I actually wanted to show up to.
This professor is AWESOME...A class like this requires lots of studying but he is very clear and helpful. Lecture exams are more difficult than lab but both are very interesting...He gives bonus ?'s in lab and curves in lecture...Overall...AMAZING prof...I recommend him if you want a good grade!!!
TAKE HIS CLASS! He's so helpful and clear. I HATE science but I passed his class w/a B! You must study & it's not an easy A, but putting effort into your school work should be a given anyway. Take him if you can!
He is a great professor and tries to make it as interesting as possible. You can pass as long as you put an effort.
My major is Accounting...I hate any science...earned an A in Zoology and a B in accounting...that's how good he is! I actually enjoyed class (minus the disections)and i know anyone who is willing to study will enjoy prof Barron's class too!
Six tests overall during the semester. Each one is straight-forward enough if you study his notes. Great professor, good clarity, and funny guy.
LOVE THIS GUY!!! only downfall is he doesn't teach 2402 and you'll wish he did! He explains stuff very well, fun personality which really helps in remembering stuff, hes very helpful and loves what he does.
Awesome teacher! He makes things fun to learn and is really passionate about what he does.
Professor Barron does not really need any more praise, but he deserves it. He was a great professor who made plenty of jokes in class and related Zoology to our lives. After class, he was always willing to answer any questions we had. Zoology textbook not needed. Only the lab book is required, and that's not very costly. Take his class. :)
"No Worries" this is one of his phrases he often uses. He is really an awesome, awesome professor!!! He is so cool and understanding that made the course very interesting. I hope he never changes, anyone who takes him will always be pleased they have chosen his class. My hat's off to you Mr. Barron.
i HATED science & was dreading botany,but WOW..this guy is awesome! You dont need the textbook, but u need the lab manual. Tests come off notes. I made A's on all tests. He also gives a nice curve! Gives many chances for extra credit. He isn't an easy A, but it's easy to get an A by studying his notes. I learned a lot! Extremely helpful guy!!
Prof. Barron is a GREAT professor! I was never very good in "science" classes in highschool, so I was not looking forward to college science. I took Zoology & am so glad I got Prof. Barron! He's so relaxed &laid back. Super fun &HILARIOUS - if you want to laugh in the morning take him! He explains everything very well and truly loves this subject!
GREAT TEACHER!! took him in a 5 week course it, never been a science person but this zoology course was interesting highly recommend this Prof. Barron, funny enthusiastic, smart, take notes and STUDY them.. were in college remember.. thumbs up for thus guy!!!
Professor Barron is one of the best professors I've ever had! The material is hard, but if you study, read and pay attention in class, you can come out with an A. He's extremely helpful too and he tells you what you need to study for the exam. Take him!
Great teacher for a class like this. By no means is it an easy A but no teacher is for this class. Take him if he is available you will not regret it.
I took Mr. Barron for Zoology and I really enjoyed his class. He's very entertaining and is funny to listen to. If you study the notes and comes to class, you can easily make an A.
Took him for Zoology in a 16 week course.. I really have nothing but wonderful things to say about this man. He is nothing but helpful and extremely versed on his subject. I would take him a thousand times if i could. (yes another hat is off to you Mr. Barron.)
The best teacher ive had so far he loves his work make class more fun really serious about his work power points on bb no reviews but he is awesome highly recommended
I took A&P 1 in a five week course. It was not an easy A but if you go to class and study, you can get an A. The tests come from the lecutres and he will tell you what is on the test.
This professor is wonderful! He really does care about his students. He's very detailed, explains EVERYthing, would help you w/ make up work if you missed a day. Lab is easy, just memorizing. Lecture's the hard part; It can also get boring just bc it's A LOT of notes, but he makes it fun. I made a B, but that was my fault. An A is achievable w/him!
He made me want to be a biology major, he's cool and funny andd yeah take him.
BEST Professor ever! Funny, entertaining, patient, will make sure you know the info, tests hard BUT GIVES CURVES. that forces you to learn the info and still make a good grade.Can use older edition of tortora. BEST BEST BEST, he will prepare you for future classes! I wish he taught other classes I needed because the others are no where near as good
The best A&P professor you can take. He is extremely helpful and easy to understand. He reviews before the test and if you have any questions he will answer them. Lecture is the hard part but he helps you. I got an A but you do have to study!
I got a C which is good for me. I dont study but i do attend class. Only got the lab book. This class isnt super easy but it is interesting and not super ha pass, just show up and pay attention.
He is a great teacher, I took him Zoology. I never had a good science teacher in high school and I graduated in 2006. He makes it easy to understand even though it is hard material. Don't buy the textbook, just the lab book and make sure you go to class and study. I made an A but I had to work for it and study more than I ever had for a class.
I currently just took him summer of 2013 for zoology. He is an amazing teacher, who loves what he does. He truly wants to help you learn and he is so funny!! he cares about your grades and I promise you wont regret taking him. He is straight forward and does not try to trick you in any ways. He also gives reviews, and TONS of extra credit :))
I took him for A&P 1 summer 1 GREAT professor!!!! He is beyond nice and is willing to help you out not matter what. His test are based off of his power points but read the book so you can get a better understanding of the material. Don't be afraid to ask him how he is going to test on certain material. He is the best teacher EVER!!
Professor Barron is very helpful and interactive however, he has very high expectations. I took him for Zoology during the summer. I was just one point away from getting a B which was a bummer,cuz I had to really study for his exams. Although he was kind of tough, I would still suggest to take him, he is very easy going and goofy as well.
I took Zoology with Barron and I am currently taking A&P I with him. He is VERY helpful and cares about his students grades and wants to help them. Notes are online and he goes over his power points in class, and adds his personal touch to each by drawing pictures and adding extra notes. Good at responding to emails also. Highly suggest him!!
He is awesome! So nice and truly cares for his students. Makes everything crystal clear and is more than willing to clarify things if you still don't understand. A&P is a hard class, but if you take good notes and come to class every day, you will make a good grade. Lectures are interesting and he is goofy (in a good way)! Best A&P professor at SJC
Awesome professor! Show up, pay attention (take notes), study over material and you will pass. Very clear and helps his students understand the course material as much as possible.
He is an awesome teacher! He tells u what u need to know and what to expect on the test. The extra credit (10 points) was very helpful!
I have been out of school for several years and I'm blessed to have him as my first college A & P professor. I don't love science at all but he assist you and will answer questions. Yes, test are based on slides and he will give study guide. Im not a reader but reading text book will help!! Good professor :-)
GREAT PROFESSOR BE PREPARED TO EARN YOure grade however he is very clear on what you need to know and how he will ask. TAKE himm
Professor Barron is amazing. He most definitely knows what he is teaching about and has a great sense of humor. His lecture tests are a little difficult but if you study you will do good. His lab tests are about as easy as he can make them as long as you study and participate in the dissections and slides. He is definitely one of my favorites!!!
Good professor. If you miss a class you will miss alot. His class is 3 lab test 3 lecture test and 1 final.
He is a wonderful professor! If you have the chance to take him, do it! He makes things crystal clear, he cares about his students, and he wants you to succeed! He responds quickly to e-mail, he grades competitively, and he gives you chances for additional points to boast each lab test. He offers extra credit for lecture and his final is clear cut
This is the only review for a professor that I have ever left. Paul Barron was hands down the best teacher I have had in my entire schooling career. His Zoology class is fascinating, as are his stories. He should double as a stand up comediankeynote speaker. He has successfully "warped" my mind into being interested in Biology.
Super kind man!! I now live in Austin, took him about 3 years ago.. Was on here rating my other teacher an wanted to stop and give him credit, after all this time I still remember him being rad! Take him!!
AMAZING TEACHER! I took him for Zoology and he definitely makes class (lab and lecture) fun Definitely a learning class. Really easy to understand and if you don't all you have to do is ask, he will try to explain it in a different way. You don't need the textbook but definitely the lab manual. He gives bonuses on the lab practicals as well as E.C.
I took Professor Barron after flunking the first A&P class I took right out of high school. His lectures are clear and he will explain every little detail you need to be able to fully understand the material. He is an amazing Professor! I wish I would have taken him the first time. Show up to class, take notes, study!!
this first time taking biology this semester but professor Barron help you a lot of the material . if you want take biology take him A&P 1 is not easy is a lot of information to learn. I recommend professor Barron.
You take 3 tests for lab, 3 tests for lecture, and 1 comprehensive final. He also offers a 10pt extra credit assignment toward the end. Professor Barron is one of the most helpful, understanding, personable professors out there. He doesn't make you learn things you don't need to know. If you dislike A&P, he'll make it bearable. TAKE HIM!
"Are we having fun yet?" Great professor, highly recommend.
Good teacher, take good notes!
AMAZING! I loved his class! He's funny, keeps it interesting, and you usually get out early. I took a 5 week summer course and absolutely had a blast.
Great professor!!! He's funny, smart, and really into the subject he teaches. Responds to emails quickly, helps you understand, and gives extra credit at the end of the semester. NO textbook is neededunless you want to buy it go for it. Just go to class, take notes, and study.
This is my first ever rating on this site! Prof Barron is amazing! Though A&P is a tough subject, his lectures were easy to understand and his tests reflected his lectures. He even made labs easy to understand by going over information on the overhead (slidesmodels). He is hands down one of the BEST professors I have ever taken!
Awsome lectures , explains everything as simple as he can. Take notes and you will pass . Gives good test reviews. Everything he explains will be on the test . So take notes and study study study . He will give you an outline for the final exam that will save your life He is very funny and makes class go by fast. Fun class to take !
Best professor I've taken so far!! Makes concepts so easy to understand and interesting to pay attention to. I recommend buying the lab manual but I don't think I've ever opened the lecture text book. If you're good at taking notes thats all you need for the lecture tests. I wish he could be my only professor for the rest of my college career!
He is really nice, helps you , encourages you. I failed my first exam but I studied in groups and my grades improved! I was so amazed how I end up making a B. . I studied and I am proud of myself for succeeding
I was petrified to take my first bio class since my freshman year of high school, but ended the semester thanks to Barron with a high A! So incredibly helpful and nice about everything, draws great diagrams on the board to help your understanding, has a great sense of what is important and what isn't- what make you study what doesn't matter
Even though I didn't pass it was because of me, professor Barron is a great teacher! I would definitely recommend him. He drops one low test and gives extra credit at the end of the semester. Be prepared to take notes but also gives power point slides. If you don't study hard you won't pass.
He was probably one of the best teachers I have had while attending college. He is very helpful and if you have a question about something he is more than happy to help you. He has a great attitude and loves his job. I would 100% recommend him. I took him for zoology and I didn't buy the textbook, just the lab manual ,which is a must.
Best teacher I've ever taken for an anatomy class. The only reason I didn't get an A was bc I got sick before a lab exam and couldn't study. Other than that, really great teacher. Wish he was the only person I had to take!
Professor Barron was very helpful, lecture was straight to the point and you need the book because his reviews come from there. Lab was great! he would always go over each subject(easy to understand). Lab exams are straight to the point, Lecture exams are a bit hard just because its a lot of info. He post grades fast and reviews exam with the clas
Great professor. You have to work for your grade. Exams are tough but you have to put the effort in. He does go over test and he will answer your questions. Really great funny guy, goes straight to the point on lectures. You will not go wrong in taking him.
Absolutely the best professor ever. I actually wanted to be in school because of him. Very smart and funny. You will love Biology with him.
LOVED Prof. Barron! He is not only an awesome teacher, but also a great guy. Really only tells you what you need to know for the text. If you don't understand something, he will go back over it until you do. His humor really help during long lectures. He is also great in the labs! He officially "warped my mind" and I became a Biology major!
Epic pony tail, relays important information, keeps class engaged, and has a great sense of humor. What more can you ask for?
He is a great man! He was the best professor I have ever taken. tells you what you need to study , I took him in 5 weeks summer session. there is going to be a loooooot of memorization. his lectures are clear. just take notes. I got an A but i was not an easy A. He is good professor, but you wont pass unless you study hard at home. recommend him!
I took Paul for zoology and he is an amazing professor. YOU HAVE GOT TO STUDY. This is not an easy A class. You must go to lectures & labs to understand the info. Only book you need is the lab book. If you show up to class and study your notes to the point where you understand you will do great on tests! One group project (easy & no presentation).
Professor Barron was great! I passed with flying colors! As long as you attend class and study the reviews you should do great! wish he taught A&P 2 :(
An amazing professor! He truly cares for his students success and is always willing to stop in the middle of a lecture to explain anything not understood. Highly recommend and would definitely take him again!
Really good professor. Tells you exactly what bullets you need to study on pwr pnts. All questions come straight from lecture. His reviews aren't that good but he's so clear about what you need to study in class it doesn't really matter. Bless the person who made reviews for his tests on quizlet, use them, they're gold. STUDY and you'll get an A.
Professor Barron is amazing!! Besides Anatomy being a semi-difficult subject, he really breaks things down and teaches you what you need to know. He gives extra credit at the end of the semester and bonus questions on lab practicals. His lectures on slideshow and provides notes on blackboard, write down the extra notes he says and you'll do great!
Professor Barron is a very kind person that really sucks at getting to the point. He's not very clear as to what he wants you to study for lecture tests. AMAZING lab professor. I'm a fairly intelligent human and his lecture tests sucked butt. Decent extra-credit given after the drop date.
Love professor Barron!! TAKE HIM, TAKE HIM, TAKE HIM! Currently in his A&P 1 class and wish he was teaching A&P 2!
He's just amazing! I have learned a lot from professor Barron. I made an A in his class I definitely recommend him. His lectures are very entertaining and funny! A&P is hard but he makes it interesting if you are going to the medical field most definitely take him!!Make sure you register on time because his classes get full quickly. He is FABOLOUS
He makes the class as fun as it can be. He is super funny and keeps you awake and learning. He quickly goes through powerpoint and highlights the important things to remember for you but it is important that you read the book as well. A lot of his testing and quizzes are a combination of the lecture AND the book. Do yourself a BIG favor and READ!!!
AMAZING! very strait forward on what is on test. gives extra credit project after drop date. makes class very interesting and tries to keep it fun. i took this class in a 5 week summer and it went fast but i still made an A, it was a lot of work though. TAKE HIM IF YOU CAN!!!!!!!
This was my last semester at college, so of course I was just ready to get out. Prof. Barron made the semester enjoyable. He makes jokes all the time so it makes lectures enjoyable. I didn't really try very hard this semester but I highly recommend taking him for general zoology.
Took him during the summer mini,it's intense and requires way more studying but it was manageable. Barron is the best professor for anatomy!! He breaks everything down, and writes all the important information on the board. All of his test are off the notes. He's hilarious,caring,and always willing to answer questions! YOU'LL REGRET NOT TAKING HIM!
Had Prof Barron for zoology, by far the best college teacher I've ever had. Makes even the tedious subjects interesting, just a joy to listen to. Another plus, he's hilarious. I wish I had taken his A&P classes too.
Professor Barron was a total badass! He's hilarious and makes class enjoyable. He definitely knows what he's talking about and cares about your grades.
i can't say enough good things about Barron. he is such an awesome teacher and i would recommend him to anyone. very fun and relaxed class, he makes it enjoyable to learn about a hard subject. i would take him again in a heartbeat, he curves tests too. overall, hes an amazing prof
I HATE anything that has to do with science but let me tell you! Zoology was such a great class! He's funny and very outgoing BUT you must go to class take notes and study! If you do that then you'll for sure make a good grade. Attendance is no mandatory but it would be smart to go. and gives a lot of extra credit
AMAZING professor!!! His lectures are just great! He breaks down everything for you and gives a lot of information. He is very charming and fun. You wont fall asleep in his class. He is pretty straightforward on what is most important and what will be in the exams and quizzes. Good luck!
I was soo scared to take Anatomy because of people telling me it was super hard. But Paul makes it easy!! TAKE HIM!! He makes sure everyone understands what he is saying before moving on. He wants you to pass! But you also have to apply yourself and actually study!
Take him best professor I've ever had not Joke. literally supplies you with everything you need. you will actually walk away with some knowledge surprise surprise. Just an over all awesome human being!!!!!!!!!! i should pass with an an A God willing!
Professor Barron is an amazing teacher and really likes to help his students out. If you pay attention during lecture and lab, you'll pass. don't hesitate to ask questions! if anyone else asks him a question, usually he'll repeat the question and give the answer to the whole class. His tests were straight and simple, follow the study guide!
Prof Barron is definitely one of the best Professors I've had. He's very good at what he does and you can tell that he enjoys it. Same old "study and you'll pass" situation, but at least he makes it enjoyable! He's very fair and genuinely cares about his students and their success. Great guy.
Professor Barron is honestly one of the best teachers Ive had in my entire education career. This was my second time taking a&p because I got a C the first time around. I took his class and ended with a 95. I wish I could take him with me throughout the rest of my nursing career! Hes simply one of the best, and it is obvious he loves what he does
I took this class 3x and I finally passed he was always making sure everyone understood the material if you didnt ask questions that was your lost because he was always willing to give you the best answer possible. I really wish he taught AP2 because he makes the most complicated thing so simplistic Im going to miss you Professor Barron !!
I will be taking this class again I really wanted an A but I kinda fell off towards the end because I let my job get the best of me and stopped studying. Make sure you study, this class requires that he also gives you good notes and make sure you do the reviews very useful i didnt use the book I found it useless. Just the lab manual
There are some good reviews and some bad. But here is the truth. I took this class and made a C- the first time. Took it with him and got an A+. He is awesome! He does go off topic sometimes but all in all an awesome professor! Labs are right on point and lectures sometimes are tough. He emails back very quick. You want an A? Take him!
He is an excellent professor! Took him for 5 week summer class, I was scared, but ended up with a good grade than I thought I was going to get. He is caring and straight forward for what going to be in tests!
Professor Paul Barron was an amazing professor! I took him for AP2 in a summer 5 week course and I made an 96% average in the course. His lectures are so easy. He is also very funny. If you do not understand something he will make sure to go over it again until you understand. he does give extra credit. review are just like test. easy A!!
Professor Barron is an amazing professor, do not hesitate to take him for A&P! I recently finished his 5 week class for A&P 1 and although I wouldn't say Science has ever really been my strength I still got an A. He breaks down difficult concepts and tests questions are fair. Will tell you in class what's testable/not. Study guide is very helpful.
I took Professor Barron this summer in a 5 week mini. If you want to make an A, go to class and then study the material that he puts on his reviews. He is a great lecturer, although he does sometimes go off into the weeds. He is funny so going to class doesn't suck. Print the slides from Bb and the reviews and you'll be good to go. TAKE HIM!!
Just finished his summer mini. Had 6 quizzes that give you a good idea of what the tests are going to be like, & no HW. His lectures are amazing, he takes a very difficult subject and makes it SO easy to understand. He breaks down everything in labs to help you memorize the material, & offers extra credit. ALL the material from the tests are on BB!
listen to me and take this teacher and u won't regret it... noooooo homework and he focuses on your understanding before memorizing . GREAT GREAT GREAT TEACHER
Took for 5 wk mini, I normally do well in mini's. If have taken Intro A&P, already an LVN going for RN, or refreshing over A&P from taking it yrs ago the mini is perfect for you. He is better full semester for beginner college science students. Mini isn't for beginners who haven't taken a science class since high school MANY yrs ago. Fair warning!
This was my first time taking A&P I. He was absolutely the best teacher. His lectures were always to the point and very easy to understand. You have to work and study for your grade, but you learn a lot. 6 quizzes, drop 2. 3 Lab Test (Histology/Skeletal System/Skull, Brain, Ear, and Eye) 3 Lecture & Final (55% New stuff & 45% Comprehensive)
At first, I was always afraid to take A&P but Professor Barron makes it so much better. Of course, you have to study and work hard since it is not an easy subject but he will help you. I wish he was teaching A&P 2 but take notes, ask questions and he will do everything he can to help you understand the material.
Professor Barron is a great professor. You truly get what you put into this class. He is understanding and not to tough. Would recommend if your new with learning bio/zoology. Also he give a lot of extra credit towards the end of the semester.
VEY GOOD PROFESSOR! He is very knowledgeable about his area. He offers extra credit and bonus to make a good grade in his class. Definitely take him, you would not regret it. I have learned a lot from him.
Professor Barron is an AMAZING Professor. He is understanding and really wants you to succeed. He gives you everything you need and if you don't understand something he doesn't mind questions or emails. He has a great sense of humor and he really does care about his students. TAKE NOTES!!
I loved professor Barron's course. He is super laid back and understanding. He teaches very clearly and his tests are over exactly what is on his reviews and what we covered in class. I would take him again if I could!!!!
Great professor, has good stories, just have to study extra hard for his class. He tells you what he will test you on specifically.
Dr. Barron is an excellent professor who really takes the time to get to know his students. He learns all students names and talks to them and makes sure everyone is up to pace with the rest, if you're behind definitely do not feel shy to ask him for help, he is extremely helpful and will make sure you know exactly what is going on in lab or lec!
Took for AP1. Come for the Lectures, stay for the Dad Jokes. Paul is an incredible instructor. If he taught AP2 I would sign up immediately. Listen and come to class every day. If you don't understand a concept, just ask him. This is a great example of someone who clearly loves their job and is willing to give students all the chances to learn,
What a great professor!! Definitely made summer Anatomy fun and enjoyable considering its not an easy course and he is very clear on grading and helping you study for test! 10/10 would recommend
I just finished this mini summer semester with Professor Barron, he is soooooo good, I would take him if he was to teach A&P 2. I didn't get an A because I didn't study enough, he did everything to help me, if you need to talk to him, he's aways available and will answer emails within minutes. I LOVEEEEEE HIMMMMMM!!!!!!! TAKE HIM YOU WONT REGRET IT
Great teacher!
The best professor I've ever had. He explains things clearly and you can tell he wants every single one of his students to succeed. As long as you take notes and pay attention, you'll do great. He's very responsive to emails and encourages you to ask questions.
The best professor you will ever have. And A&P 1 is a hard class so thats saying something. Unlike other professors, he does NOT read the powerpoints word for word and in fact gives notes that only touch on the important parts of the subject at hand. This really shows how dedicated Professor Barron is to his job so TAKE HIM IF YOU CAN.
Professor Barron is the BEST! Definitely not a "bad biologist." Very accessible outside of class. Just finished his summer 5 week A&P 1 course with an A. He gives you everything you need to pass. Just study hard and you'll do great! TAKE HIM ALWAYS. Makes A&P enjoyable. If I could do it in 5 weeks you can for sure do it in a normal semester! :D
I would absolutely take Professor Barron again. Out of my 3 years in college, he was by far the best professor I have ever had. He makes it enjoyable to go to class. His lectures were very clear and if you were confused, he wouldn't move on until everyone was on board. I took him for a 5-week A&P class and received an A+. Highly recommend him!!!!!!
Hands down the best professor i have ever had! He does everything in his power to help you understand and pass. Very funny, study guides are exactly whats on the tests, uploads all slides and extra notes on BB,Easily Accessible outside of class, answers all questions during class. Take this professor if possible you wont regret it, trust me.
The best professor to take for a hard course. Prof Barron truly cares for your success. I was nervous coming into this class but show up, take good notes, use textbook, study, pass.
Professor is probably one of the best teachers I've had. He actually teaches and wants you to learn and understand. Very good at explaining concepts. He will set you up for success.
I highly recommend taking professor Barron's classes. He makes everything clear before exams and gives reviews. Quick responses to your questions and care for your success. Professor Barron is the best professor I have ever had. His lectures and labs are enjoyable.
GREAT professor! He's very passionate about his profession. Lectures & labs are heavy but he's very detailed & clear. He does his best to help you be successful, replies to emails, gives extra credit, & gives lots of study resources. The key to acing this class is studying, show up, ask questions, & communicate with him! 100% would take again.
Mr. Barron is a great professor with an even better sense of humor! He often jokes while lecturing. He also wrote a recommendation for me, which helped me to be accepted into the NCAS program. Loved being in his class and I'd highly recommend him for any subject.
I took his 5-week online class and it was like taking the class in person he is really good at explaining things and his exams are just like his lectures. It is a tough class you do have to work for your grade but I would take him again in a heartbeat.
Professor Barron is AWESOME! A whole pandemic going on and he did an awesome job lecturing and going over lab material. If you take notes from his lectures you will do just fine. Grading is explained and easy to keep up with. Online OpenStax book provided but he does great at PowerPoints and notes, so you dont really need it.
I love this professor, hes so caring if all his students. He does an amazing job at lecture and lab I genuinely enjoy his class. I wish he thought Ap2 as well. Tests just like his lectures.
Lays everything out at the beginning of the semester, I have taken this class before but this professor made it so much easier to learn the material. His lecture and lab videos are funny & tries to keep you entertained, wish I could take him for all my classes. Lectures are mostly mc, lab fill in black & gives extra credit. Responds to emails fast
Take this class! When i say this guy is so easy to work with. I was so nervous taking A&P since Ive been out of school for a while and he honestly made it such a pleasant experience. Make sure you take notes off his PowerPoints & lectures, Turn things in on time. Gives extra credit. Very understanding. Just take this class wont be disappointed.
Professor Barron is one of the best a&p teachers to ever exist. The way he presents information is very clear and easy to understand, and he is so funny during lectures and labs. Even in a completely online format I was able to learn so much and retain that information as well. If you put in the time to study and learn, you'll get an A
Hands down the best professor I've ever taken, took his class for a&p1, and was the best class I took for the covid semester. Professor Barron has amazing lectures and his labs are always so interesting and entertaining. Be prepared to take lots of notes and study. In all, his class is very enjoyable and recommend anyone to take Professor Barron.
this professor isnt a hard grader. but puts 2hr lectures up, with him making jokes, kids in the background screaming, and dogs barking. id listen on low. he makes up his own questions and answers.
I absolutely loved taking professor Barron this semester for A&P I. He gave a lot of good feedback and is very prompt to responding to your questions or emails quickly. Make sure to take notes and you will pass his class. I learned a lot from taking his course. Would definitely recommend him. Hands down a great professor :)
Best professor! Wish he taught more classes I need! Great lectures- he really cares, is fun and bends over backwards to help you learn the material. He gives everything you need + more. He drops 2 lowest Quiz grades and has 3 chances for extra credit. He writes all the tests and tells you what to expect. 2 labs are fill in blank. I made a 99.
Professor Barron really wants you to succeed, he explains the material in detail and breaks it down to a level that is easy to understand. Very good with communication, if you need help or have questions just email him and he will respond quickly. I wish he thought A&P 2 he is the BEST!!!! +Funny lol.
Excellent professor, he explains in detail each lesson. He really takes care of the students that we are successful. He answers questions and doubts quickly through emails. 3 lecture exams and 3 labs. drops 2 lowers quiz grade. I recommend him 100% and I wish I had continued A&P 2 with him, but he doesn't teach that class .He is THE BEST
I took professor Barron as an Online class, overall, this professor is the BEST professor I have ever had throughout my college experience. His lectures are very informative and goes in depth to make sure you know everything. He gives extra credit, drops lowest grade, and gives you time to complete assignments. He definitely understands and cares
Professor Barron is one of the best instructors I have ever had. He enjoys teaching and does an exceptional job. He makes all lectures/labs/ quizzes/ exams very clear. He gives reviews as well as extra credit opportunities. He responds to all emails and encourages you to ask questions. I highly recommend taking his class. I wish he taught A & P 2!
Any chance you get to take one of Dr. Barron's class, DO IT! His lectures are so well done and he is extremely educated and really cares for his students. I have learned so much from him and HIGHLY recommend choosing him as your educator. Really awesome professor all the way around!!
I received a B only because I didnt study as much. Id just like to start off by saying even though science isnt my strongest subject l, Professor Barron made this the best experience for me in my entire collegiate education. Hands down the BEST Professor for A&P. The reviews you see are definitely true. He truly wants his students to succeed
A&P 1 is hard but having a good professor is a good start. There was a textbook to be used but I didnt use it because Prof. Barron prepared well detailed powerpoints, which he clearly explained in class. He gave a study guide for every chapter, as well as reviews for the lab exams. He deserves the best rating !
Amazing Professor for A&P 1! Truly cares for his students and their success in the class. He posts study guides for reviews that are extremely helpful. As long as you study, pay attention in his lectures, and study for the labs, you should be ready for exam! He responds to emails pretty fast regarding any questions that you may have for an exam.
He is a nice / funny and everything you learn and he tells you to study will be exactly whats on the exams and quizzes. He gives an optional extra credit essay that you automatically get 10 points for as long as you do it!! The class isnt that difficult but you have to dedicate alot of time to it!
No exaggeration, the best professor I've ever had. His lecture are awesome. He'll never pop quiz you and he's very clear on that. You can tell he really wants you to pass and cares that you learn. I would say his lectures and PP slides is mostly what you need but I'd still skim through the book. Always had a great attitude when teaching.
Dont hesitate to take Professor Barron for A&P I. He is incredibly caring for his students and you can tell he genuinely loves what he teaches. There are 6 quizzes (2 lowest are dropped), 3 lab exams (each +5 extra credit questions) and 4 lecture exams. By attending all labs and lectures, studying HARD, and asking questions, you can finish strong!
Professor Barron is one of the best professors Ive ever taken. He is so humble and will try his absolute best to make the class fair and interesting. I would take him again if the opportunity persists.
Professor Barron is the GOAT!!! (Greatest of all time) DO YOU HEAR ME?! A true gem and he genuinely cares for his students. He wants you succeed in all that you do. A&P isnt a easy class, so you gotta put the work in. However, Barron works with YOU, not against you. Dont play yourself, TAKE THIS CLASS! You wont get any better than him.
Professor Barron is the best professor Ive ever had! You really cant get any better than him! He doesnt over complicate the material at all! He lets you know what you need to know and forget the rest! Hes always there if you need help, even during a test ! He also has a great sense of humor and isnt strict! Take his class! You wont regret it!
Best professor I've ever had! Taking his a&p class next semester because I enjoyed his way of teaching so much. The tests are straight forward and if you study hard enough it'll reflect on your grade.
10 out 10!!!!!! Hes hands down the best biology professor!! Take him if you have the chance. He is an amazing guy that clearly loves his job and helping students succeed. The only thing Im disappointed about, is that he doesnt teach A&P 2.
Prof's lectures are amazing because he is super funny and good at explaining. He is also very straight forward, anything he asks you to read will come out. If you study and pay attention, then it is impossible to fail. Taking any courses with him will be the best experience.
Professor Barron is probably the best science professor Ive ever taken! Hes very helpful and makes it clear on whats testable and whats not. He makes review outlines to help you study so you know what to expect on the exams! He makes sure to take care of you if you were/are going to be gone. I 100% recommend taking professor Barron!
Professor Barron truly cares about his students success. He will answer all and any questions you have. He makes the learning environment comfortable and makes this class seem easy and interesting. If you take BIOL 2101 & 2301 you are set for Anatomy & Physiology II!
Professor Barron truly cares about his students success. He answers all and any questions anytime. He makes this tough class seem easy and interesting! He makes the learning environment feel comfortable! He is also funny and gives the class a good laugh everytime! If you take Professor Barron you are set for Anatomy & Physiology II
Don't hesitate to take him! He's AMAZINGGG. He tells you exactly what's on his test and what to study. His class is never boring. Take him if you can! His classes fill up quickly.
TAKE PROFESSOR BARRON FOR A&P1! he is very clear with what will be on the quizzes and exams. He is very easy to reach out to and cares for his students to succeed. I was nervous to take his class because I'm not good with science but he explains everything clearly and will make his class interesting by giving us a good laugh!
His lectures are clear and interesting. He is straight forward on testable terms when it comes to tests and quizzes. He is definitely the best choice when it comes to A and P 1.
So i had him for A&P1 with labs. He is a solid teacher that is very fun to learn with. He doesnt give any extra stuff you dont need to learn on. No homework but You definitely need to study 1-2hr a day but for the most part if you dont understand he will help you til you do. If you fail thats on you he very understanding on emergency.
Came to class unsire this would be the most difficult class i have ever taken, b it he was an amazing prof. THE ADAM SANDLER OF AP. Got a 96 in his class. Makes everything clear and concise. Never had a problem with class/lab. Def would recommend taking him over anyone else. 4 tests. All covered by powerpoints. 4 lab exams that are covered in lab.
Professor Barron is very understanding and always accommodated for anything even the little things. He would take out questions if we hadn't covered them in lecture yet. His teaching is never boring and he always has interesting things to say and he truly does care about students. Word of advice though STUDY and PAY ATTENTION. Labs are open ended.
Awesome online class! His quizzes are really helpful and the exams are quite easy. I would say when he tells you to watch the YouTube videos he create watch them!
Professor Barron is an amazing professor! He is very straightforward with his lectures and exams. He is very understandable and funny! You can tell he is very passionate about his job so take Bio 2 with him for a fun experience!
Professor Barron was one of the most amazing teachers I've ever had. He dosent use the textbook and makes the questions for the tests and quizzes. If you pay attention to his lectures (which are engaging) and study you can make a good grade. He has three Lab and lecture exams, six quizzes, and one final and extra credit opportunity.
Professor Barron is truly the best professor to ever exist. Easy and interesting lectures, and he teaches with passion for the subject he loves. Saying he is the best professor ever is an understatement. He truly loves what he does and cares so much for his students. His exams are pretty straightforward, but the lab exams can be tricky. extra credi
He makes it very clear about how he is going to grade tests and assignments. He doesn't make you read the textbook and had very interesting lectures. He can get off-topic, but it is interesting and will never be on the tests. 3 lecture exams, 3 lab exams, 6 quizzes, 2 extra credits, 1 paper, and a field trip to Armand Bayou.
Amazing professor, tells you what exactly are on quizzes and tests with reviews. His labs and lectures are always interesting, and he tells you what exactly is going to be on the test from the slides he presents and what is not. Definitely would take him again if I had the chance. I love how passionate he is about his job.
Professor Barron is an amazing teacher, he is absolutely the G.O.A.T! From the start, he has a clear, organized course syllabus, breaks it down in a way that is easy to understand, makes his lectures fun and interesting. You can tell he is passionate about his work, and truly cares about his students. I highly recommend him!
AMAZING! He has a deep passion for Biology and it shows during his lectures. Hilarious, yet informative side rants and tangents too. Since I took this class in Fall 2022, I made it into the radiography program and I've used my old notes from this class for the HESI + my current classes. GREAT teaching style! 10/10. ~BTW His classes fills up fast !!
It was a pleasure to attend his lectures, apart from the jokes and tangents, he has a way of simplifying the information so you only get what you need. If I could, I would choose him for every single class I need to take.
VERY HEAVY on material and would go off on tangents that would have nothing to do with test. would constantly talk about how many students were failing the exams and talk about how he kicked one student out. funny and smart but bad attitude and makes snide remarks from time to time.
I really wish he were teaching anatomy and phy II cause i would sign up with him in a heart beat. he truly is such a fair teacher and makes sure you understand the lecture. he does give quizzes before exams. he gives test reviews and tells you exactly what you need to focus your studying on. he offers extra credit which is very helpful. AMAZING!!
he has a clear outline of the class syllabus and was always able to change something if the class needed it or if we were behind. he is very passionate about teaching and you can tell. pay attention and you'll be fine. there are lecture and lab exams and quizzes that all will be on the syllabus in detail. overall a great professor,
As someone who needs v clear & direct communication, Barron was so helpful and always told us exactly what we needed to do/know to succeed and didn't beat around the bush. Says exactly what will be on tests and how they will be formatted. The class itself is challenging and you do need to study, but he makes it a lot easier than it could have been.
Great professor! Would highly recommend and he offers extra credit which is very helpful!
First ever science class. Best professor ever, wish I could take him again for AP2. AP1 is already a hard enough subject but professor Barron makes it better. Understandable, easy grader, end of semester extra credit opportunities. TAKE HIM !!!
I appreciate that he doesn't just read off PPT and make you figure it out on your own. Ask him questions! He gives you ALL the information you need for the tests. No homework, just study for quizzes and tests! If you do not study, you will not make the grade you want! It's very simple. I wish he taught A&P 2! One of the best professors hands down.
You don't meet a lot of professors that cares the way he does. He try to hit all the different learning styles, whether you are a visual, hand-on, or auditory learners. He is fair and tell you what is on the Exam and Quizzes. I really wish he was teaching AP 2. He is worth every penny and more. AP 1 is a hard class, study for the grade you want.
he is a amazing professor. he tells you exactly what are going to be on quizzes and gives a clear study guide for exams on what you need to focus on studying. there is lots of studying you have to do but for the most part his class is wonderful
Time went by fast in his lecture because he would never make it boring. In lab exams you can ask as many questions as you want and he will respond to all of them. He gave extra credit that improves my grade a lot. I thought I was going to fail this class, but I ended up passing within A. His classes tend to fill up quick.
Professor Barron is the absolute best! He does everything in his power to help you succeed in this class. Anatomy in general is a tough class but he makes it easy/fun. He gives reviews that really help with is lecture exams. I took in a 5 week mini-mester and made an A. You'll have to dedicate a lot of time to studying but its worth it. Take him!
Genuinely the best science professor l've had. Gives good background context and stories to help understand a concept. 10000% recommend. You must also do your part, go over notes and content provided - study / understand it. (I took this class in summer 5-week mini)
Probably my favorite professor of all time. I put a level 3 difficulty just because I took him for Anatomy and that class in general is tricky. His lectures are not bad, he includes personal stories and tries to involve his students. Labs are mostly memorization but any questions you have, he answers the best he can.
I am typing this review after taking his class about 2ish years ago. I can say that Professor Barron is still the best bio prof I've ever had. He really is one of a kind in his field and makes me wish there were more people like him in the uni I go to now. If you are registering for bio or A&P classes, take him.
His class is hard if you don't put your part, but he does give tests online so that makes it easier. Be sure to study at least a week before any exams as they can be very hard especially the lab exams. He is a very good professor and actually has passion for his career. I honestly have nothing but good things to say about him.
Take his class I definitely recommend him. I am a returning student having to retake my A & P classes because they expired. I had bombed the first 2 exams. Although you do have to put in the work to study a lot of material but I was able to Ace the last 3 exams which picked up my grade to a B. Listen to his lecture he gives out clues what to study.
Professor Barron was great! It was my first time going back to school in 10 years and I did not know what to expect but he made it so easy and helped me understand really well. He is the kind of professor that does not believe in stupid questions, which made me feel comfortable because I ask A LOT of questions and he answered all of them.
Professor Barron is my favorite Professor! He's loves to tell stories and make jokes, making learning experiences more enjoyable. Lectures and lab exams are quite heavy and do require a lot of time and effort studying material and looking back on notes. He has no issue answer questions or replying to emails. easy A if you put in time and effort!
Professor Barron was an awesome teacher. You can tell he actually wants you to pass and I don't think I would have passed this class without him as my teacher because the material is hard. He offers extra credit at the end of the semester and his lectures are very enjoyable since he is very funny. I really enjoyed his class he was great!!
TAKE PROFESS BARRON! One of the best and most understanding professor's I have ever taken! The material can be quite heavy, but as long as you attend class every single day and study every day you will pass with flying colors. There is opportunities for extra credit! He will help you with whatever you need but you just need to do your part as well!
One of the best professors I've ever had, he was able to successfully teach someone who isn't at all a bio-related major so many interesting and exciting things. He is truly a great professor who is very passionate about what he does and encourages students to follow and pursue his teachings. I've learned so many great things in this class, 10/10!
A passionate professor who truly wants his students to succeed. He uses a point system which is useful to calculate your expected grades. Lectures are comprehensive and consist of 10 question quizzes at various points throughout the semester. Labs are manageable and he adds bonus questions on lab exams. Don't miss a day or you will fall behind.
He's a great professor, if you're taking anatomy for the first time take him. He explains everything easily and sometimes he goes off topic but its not that bad. He goes easy for exams and does extra questions on lab exams for bonus points. He also cares about his students and gives advice on how to study for his exams. Sadly he doesn't do A&P2 tho
He is definitely one of my top 3 profs! He explains everything perfectly! Writes AND draws topics out so we can visually understand them. Also gives lots of feedback on exams & lets us know what to focus on for them! Took in 5-weeks, and trust me it's HEAVY, but he makes it manageable & worth it w/ his jokes. Take Him! He will be appreciative!
BEST PROFESSOR
Took during the summer. Lots of information but manageable. Professor is straight to point, knowledgeable, and easy to learn from! Highly recommended this class.
I took his class in a 5 week mini semester. Fell in love with his style. He is a great teacher to a point that he inspires you and motivates you. Willing to accessible and answer all your doubts. Basically if you study you will pass.
I would recommend taking biol 1306 before taking him because he does reference Bio 1 A LOT. He's an amazing professor and is super hilarious. This course is for science majors, so BE READY TO STUDY
i loved barron he is amazing and he is direct with what you should know for tests and such. i took him during the summer and though it was a fast paced class, he was amazing in making sure that we had and knew the right material.
You will never find another professor like this please take him. He is incredible.
Professor Barron was great, he made learning anatomy easy and fun. He does provide extra credit and rounds up grades which is great!
I loved Professior Barron, he truly cares about his students, and wants them to do well. He is so passionate about biology! I have decided to major in Biology, because of him! Take his class, you won't regret it! As long as you put in the work, you will pass.
Dr. Barron is hands-down the best science teacher I have taken up to this point. He is passionate about his subject and incredibly knowledgeable. He actively works for your betterment, makes sure you understand things, makes himself accessible outside of class. His class is the reason I'm transferring into a biology program. 10/10, would recommend.
Dr. Barron is hand-down the best science teacher I've ever had. He is deeply passionate about is subject, personable, and incredibly knowledgeable. He actively works to your betterment, will openly admit he made a mistake, and is the reason I am transferring as a biology major. I would absolutely recommend. 10/10 professor, 10/10 person.
TAKE HIM! I got an A but YOU have to put the work in. His grading is easy and offers extra credit. Very caring and understandable
Take him! He is an AMAZING professor. He is very clear and very literal on what the tests will be on and how he will ask them. You do need to STUDY to get a good grade, 2 of his labs are free response/practicals! But again, study and it'll be a breeze! I wish he taught more classes just so I can take him again!
Professor Barron is very thorough and gives you the exact information you need to pass this class. As long as you study the material, you can pass this class with no problem.
