his class was fun for A&P. not easy but the atmosphere was laid back. finally... a professor with impressive credentials who doesn't try too hard!
I love this man! he is an excellent teacher. He was so great the first time around that i took him for A&P 2. Dont think that you will ever find an easy A&P teacher cuz its such a hard course, but he'll definetly make it easier for you! he also only has like 25 questions on the lab practical! how easy is that.. dont pass him up!
No Comments
great teacher. makes the subject matter easier to understand. he drills that difficult material into u till you get it. the BIG THING is to STAY PREPARED. pop quizes every now and then, but its only to help you truly learn the material. the lab manual became my bible...i find it way better than the actual textbook. maybe you can skip the textbook??
awesome awesome awesome. i like being in his class. it is a lot of work. but at least he makes an already difficult subject easier to learn. one note tho, ALWAYS BE PREPARED!
To all biology or non-biology majors, if you really want to learn, i highly recommend Dr. P. A&P is not an easy class but if you pay attention and study the materials it is very impossible not to get an A+ in this class. I had so much fun in this class and proud to be one of his student.
we heart dr p. he is an extremely involved teacher who tries to really get the material thru to each student, take him!
all i can say is bring a tape recorder and be prepared to learn. his knowledge on the stuff is solid, be prepared 4 class, if you're not you will get so lost. jokes funny. great personality & willing to help u. . . .u just have to help yourself first.
he is helpful and fun
Excellant teacher!!! I also took him for 1408 because I enjoyed 1407 so much with him! Tried to take 1408 with someone else and she couldnt hold a candle to Dr. P!!!!! I highly recommend him!!
Great Teacher! Makes lecture interesting and fun! Take him!
Dr. P was great. I went to a major university with a medical school and never had a better science/anatomy teacher. He'll test you but make it fun. His lecture notes are out of this world, helps a ton...Would I recommend you take A&P from Dr. P? In his words..."that would be a Y-E-S".
Dr. P is an awesome tacher, down to earth yet authoritative. Best thing is his main intention is for you to learn not to intimidate you. A lot of nursing lecturers can learn a lot from hs mode of teaching. Good job. When you are done with his class, you know the material in and out.
YOU MUST TAKE HIM. HE MADE THE CLASS FUN AND UNDERSTANDABLE WITH HIS CLINICAL APPLICATIONS TO THE TOPIC
he awesome, hard but understanding
Amazing clarity and clinical examples. Dr. P made the class laid back and fun to learn some A&P. This man has an awesome background. Not an easy class but you work away learning some stuff.
An amazing teacher! Full of knowledge and has a great personality. You will remember Doc P. He knows what he's talking about and he is not boring. Never have I been in a class so perfectly executed. He wants nothing but for you to succeed. He makes you believe your dream is possible. There's no better than Doc P. That's a fact!
wow. well he is a really talented person whom i believe his best profession is teaching. he leads u in the right path and there is nothing hidden about it.thanks dr p, u are the best.
Absolutely loved this class because of Dr. P. His clinical examples, his willingness to help, and his goal to challenge you to think deeper about this subject were a dynamic combination. I highly recommend him.
Of all the instructors I've had Dr.P is the best. He teaches so well that I still remember most of the stuff that he taught.He is serious when it comes to teaching and yet, slips in one or two jokes in there to make the lecture fun. His experience as a doctor only makes him better... Highy recommended. thanks a tonne dr.P
awesome
He treats this like a med school course. Very fast, does not spoon feed you. He does not like to repeat himself. He talks about God in class. If you have a problem withthat, don't take him. He does not review for tests and does not review your tests when you receive them back. However, you do get 3% extra credit for volunteer work.
Dr. P was extremily helpful, fair but firm. Willing to see his students succeed. Take him if you want to really learn some A&P and clinical foundations for your future career. If you just want a grade, this guy is not for you, coz he is no push over. No late assignment/homework. He has wealth of knowlege you will gain from his class.I luv Dr. P
I LOVE dr P! he is the BEST proffessor EVER! his class IS hard A&P is not an easy subject no matter who you take is with duuhh but he explains EVERYTHING his jokes are funnyyy and he uses his clinical experience as examples i LOVE him :D all he really wants is for his students to LEARN the material and SUCCEED in life :D i wish he taught micro :(
Just finished Dr. P's SCIT 1407 class. This was my second time to take this class and just finished A&P II (both with another professor) and I found out that I didn't learn much the first time through. Wish I had taken Dr. P the first time. Tough class but wealth of knowledge is boundless and will be able to take with you into your nursing career!
wow. Dr P is the best. He explains everything so clearly and gives really good analogies, and hes so funnyyyy I LOVE his class. Seriously he just wants his students to LEARN the material and to succeed in life. you will not regret taking his class.
Dr. P is the best professor EVER! He is extremely knowledgeable and truly cares about his students and wants them to succeed. He truly appreciates students that show up to class on time and are PREPARED!!! Dr. P is also an actual MD and he uses real-life examples from his medical practice to help explain important topics. You are the BEST Dr. P!!!
A wonderful instructor.He puts so much life into A&P and really cares about the success of his students.I'll encourage anyone who wants to learn something tangible to take him.
He is a great teacher, his lectures are fun. He uses real life examples to make you understand, but his exams are not easy he is VERY TRICKY and does not give reviews so you have to read hard and understand the concepts. But overal he is recomendable.
There's a reason Dr. P's classes fill up fast . . . he's THE BEST! The material is tough and so are his tests but if you really want to learn, take his class. He's helpful, funny and he sincerely wants you to succeed. Thank you Dr. P! See you soon for AP2!
Awesome decribes this instructor.If you want to learn, Take him!!If not find someoneelse.I couldn't have made it into Nursing school without Dr.P from his advise to his knowledge of the field. He brought the best out of me.Not an easy class but he made it fun.I'm utilizing just about ALL of his concepts now in Pathophys/pharmacology. Highly Recomm
he is a really good teacher,he enjoys teaching that makes his class more enjoyable.I wish he could teach any other classes.he is the best teacher I ever had.
I loved Dr. P. He is the best teacher ever. All you need to do is study the powerpoint notes and go to class and everything else will fall into place. He is a very nice man and cares about all of his students and wants the to succeed. If I would have studied a little more that would have been a fairly east A.
Dr. P- absolutely the best! He's been through med school and knows his stuff. It's not often to get a teacher who can answer every question and give examples, especially in such a compresensive and complex course like A and P. The material isn't easy but you will learn and be entertained. Bonus quizes and no text- you'd be crazy to miss out.
Dr. P really knows his stuff and wants his students to learn! He is soooo funny and tells the best stories during class. His tests are HORRIBLE and very difficult but other than that he is excellent!
tough but fair. funny
Excellnt. A&P 1.Related everything to clinical experience. Nix lecture book, study pwr pnts, go to class. Lab practs were blanks you had to fill in. Tough, but I'm a first year nrsing stdnt and have retained a lot. DO your lab book wk. Can be condescending. I got an A. very fair. No curve, but extra crdt up to 10 pts per test! A whole letter grade!
Dr. P is a very passionate, professional and highly competent professor. I am able to grasp phys concepts thanks to his lec notes. You HAVE to give him 100%, but keep in mind, he will ALWAYS give you 150%. If you want to truly learn A&P (which is a challenging course) TAKE DR.P.....if not, well "THAT'S YOUR BUSINESS!" SCIT 1407, ONE WEEK TO GO!!!
Dr P is AWESOME! he loves what he does and really wants to see his students succeed.I am blessed to have met him, He is an awesome prof. and an as an amazing person! ..study the ppt notes and if he asks if you like a pic or a chart, then LOVE it (it WILL be on the test)!
Dr. P is an amazing instructor and makes A&P fun and interesting. I would take his class over and over again!
Very passionate!Had Dr. P for AP 1&2. Dont come to class, dont do well. He's tough but if u want a sucessful career, he's your man! Ask questions, but be prepared for real talk, no BS from him! Act unintlligent, u will be treated that way. Quizzes usually day test in test ctr. Exams tough so read your notes, he prepares them for you! <3 Dr. P!
Dr. P's classes are full of pizzazz. However, he takes hard to a whole new level. But, it is good prep for the medical field. It is obvious that he is passionate about what he does and he tries to instill that in his students. If you are looking for an easy pre-req class and are new to this field...choose another professor.
He is a wonderful teacher, super fun, and he clearly enjoys what he does. However, his tests are so HARD! He drops the lowest test, which honestly you are going to need! STUDY STUDY STUDY his notes. Do not bother reading the text book. Labs: be sure to label left and right on EVERY and I mean EVERY question other wise do not bother putting an answe
Dr. P is probably one of the best teachers I have ever had in my whole college experience. Dont come to his class and expect it to be easy because its not! You must study! However if you attend lectures he explains it all in a way that makes it easy to understand. Trust me I went from a D to an A! He gives 110% and only expects the same from you.
you have to study hard.i would not recommend him if you want an A.
wonderful professor ... truly cares about his students successin his course and in future nursing/medical classes and professional future
Humorous at times, arrogant other times. A bit of a chauvanist; antagonistic personality. Can be difficult to understand. Helpful in lab though.
Extremely helpful and passionate teacher. Wants you to succeed. Not an easy class, but his methods and presentations are AWESOME. Take him. You'll learn so much more for future in the medical field. Thanks Dr. P
He does the best for your understanding this class. Very funny, approachable and extremely helpful. Gives pop bonus quizzes at the end of each module, you cannot miss those they help your grade. Lab homework a must to earn easy points. Follw his ppt note + attend lectures, you have it made.
BEST BEST BEST TEACHER FOR A&P. HE MAKES IT FUN HE IS VERY SMART AND HE NOT ONLY TEACHES YOU WHATS IN THE BOOK HE APPLIES IT TO THE REAL WORLD TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU WILL NEED IN THE MEDICAL FIELD. I LOVE HIM AND STILL KEEP IN TOUCH WITH HIM. HE IS A GREAT INSPIRATION!!!!!
he loves to teach, the material it is a lot, you have to focus all the time. great Professor.Read the slides. I got A+ in both classes 1407 and 1408.
AMAZINGLY WONDERFUL, CONSIDERATE PROFESSOR. HE WOULD GO THE DISTANCE 4 YOU ACHIEVE THE GRT KNOWLEDGE IN THE COURSE.I TOOK THE ONLINE COURSE,VERY HELPFUL WITH HIS NOTES/AUDIO/VIDEO COMPONENTS. HE SUMMARIZES THE ONLINE LECTURES DURING LAB. EXAMS ARE FAIR (IF YOU STUDY THE PPT+REVIEW SHEET).I LEARNT ALOT FROM Dr P CLASS AND HOW TO APPLY IT. THANKS
The best Professor ever. He has the passion and loves what he does!! You attend all his classes including first day of class then you got it all made.........Very helpful takes time to make sure u got it. He does both lecture and lab. Read all his material and guaranteed pass ....I am planning to take all my sciences with him........
This course you want to take if you want to learn something not just get a easy grade.
Dr. P is an excellent teacher! He makes A&P easy to understand and tells you exactly what to study for the test. Any A&P is a hard class so don't expect it to be an easy A, you have work to do! I took the 4 week class and it was difficult to cram it all in! By far the best class ever!
He is a excellent teacher to give all infomration that we need to be professional health care providers.
Very Hard Class
Very hard, but the class is hard. Read the syllabus well and know what is due and when. He is very helpful and will tell you exactly what you need to know to do well! If he posts videos of labs, watch them. He is telling you what to know for the exam! Practicals are fill-in-the-blank, but I feel like I learned so much! MD, so he has good stories!
Very Hard class, but he is a great teacher. He is willing to help at any time. Has a great personality and keeps you focused. I am taking him again for SCIT APII. Don't take him if you don't want to try.
Awesome teacher. Really knows what he is talking about. He is not unreasonable. He does not trick you. He wants you to know the subject and not kill people. He understands the high responsibility the health profession entails and wants you to understand that as well. Attendance is not mandatory but will help to get an A. Book is not necessary.
Dr P is an awesome teacher that truly cares about his students success. AP is a very hard class, it has nothing to do with the teacher, it is the material. You have to study. He has excellent PowerPoints and his tests are based off of them. Study real hard because it is a lot of material!
Dr. P is a great professor. He has the ability to make the contents look so easy and simple. I really like his lectures, and after attending to his classes I could finally "understand" physiology better. Thank you Dr. P
Currently in medical field, and his class sharpen my skills at my current job. you will defintely learn a lot from him but those dang test are HARD but if you are going to advance in med. career he is still your guy. Much thanks to DR. P.
I was taking this while working full time and he just gives too much homework. He does it to help you, but it was just way too much to do (150 problems a night during summer classes).
I withdraw from this class because he gives you so much to do! However may God bless this man because he cares and wants you to succeed. He helps in all ways that he can. He even talked to us after a test of massive failings and you can here the concern and care in his speech. I took him on fast track and thinking about it again
He only teacher online and fast tracks now, and I failed it with fast track in the past but I still want him again..crazy?...not at all! He really wants us all to excel and he has "talks"with us when he doesn't see enough passes after a test and eveyone is looking all sad faced. I recommend this teacher because you need one like him hard and loving
Very helpful and deligent teacher. He taught me the descipline to study better. Yes, this is a tough class but Dr P makes it understandable with lots of Clinical Applications related to the lectures. Yu will learn so much from this Professor for your future career in medicine. Highly recommended 5stars
Very hard class but teacher enthusiasm make it bearable. He keeps you engaged and focused during Lecture/Lab. He makes sure you get IT!! BEST Professor EVER!!
Great teacher- took bc of reviews and they were right. LOVE that you dont need the book- he gives great detailed powerpoints and bolds/stars everything you need to know for the tests. Great lectures, makes it easy to understand. Hard class and a lot of work, but you really learn. Gives lots of online tools. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
literally the best professor out there. he treats you as an adult. only mandatory attendance is lab practicals but i suggest you go every day. his passion is teaching and medicine, so you'll learn a lot from him. my main tip: pay attention. everything he says is helpful on tests & in your career.
His bark is bigger than his bite. This was my very first online class. Not only is he a Great Professor, but a Good Person. He's very passionate about what he does and trying to ensure that you succeed. Your success in his class will have a lot to do with your discipline and effort to stay on top of the assignments. If serious about your career. GO
Be sure to study his power points. Dr. P is very passionate, and truly cares about his students. I took him for A&P 1 and 2.
he is good, loves teaching, but you really have to work for your grade. A lot of homework but the homework is very helpful for the tests.
This class was amazing. I wish I had more time to have studied harder and made a better grade, but he gives the tools and information you need to get an A. He is very passionate and very straight forward with the material. Overall, Great class.
Excellent professor. Very passionate and on point. His material will definitely come up again as you go on to nursing, medicine, pharmacy or whatever field you choose. He lays a great foundation and being an md is certainly to the student's advantage coz he knows what he's talking about.
Amazing professor! You will definitely learn the material here and he gives you info you will need in future medical/science classes. He is funny and makes the lectures relatable and involved. Stay on top of your studying and you will do great.
He is helpful, but the homework is too much, very hard to keep up with his homework especially if you work and have kids...I do not recommend him for a busy mum. His exams are hard also.
By far the hardest class and instructor I've had...but I loved every minute. He is the most knowledgeable and passionate professor I've had. He knows everything about his profession and it is very obvious how much he enjoys what he does. You do not have to attend class...but I recommend you do. His lectures make the material relevant and hes funny!
I just started summer 1 with Dr. Pius. All of the great comments that I read before starting the class were true. He is very passionate and tremendously helpful. He wants to see you to succeed. Day 1 he tells you what to expect from him and what he expects from you. He has so many success stories of past students.
Way too much homework. There are 14 quizzes that are 100 questions each plus discussions plus lab quizzes- all for a 4 week class. His syllabus is 25 pages long and that should have been my first clue. Unstructured class. Tests are a long shot- never know what you will get.
Way too much work.. something to do literally everyday. 25 page syllabus should have been a red flag. Maybe it's better during the full semester but in the summer time- don't do it to yourself.
this was a blended course both lab in class and lecture online. The material is already hard to understand but Dr. P does his best to help everyone. He really cares about this students and wants them to be successful. There is a lot of work but it is all to help you get better. i would recommend him to a friend!
I took Dr. P for A&P 1 and 2 this summer. Anatomy is a hard subject in itself but he did everything possible to make it easy to understand. Anyone who said that there was too much homework probably didn't start it until the night it was due. Some tests can be hard in A&P 2 but if you study the powerpoints and understand the concepts, you'll be ok.
Although there is a lot of work, when taking Anatomy that was a given. However, all of his assignments are clear and you know about them from day 1. He also does great work in his personal life. My only strife was that he would bring his political view to class, and if you disagreed with him he would dislike you.
Loved his class. Taking him for 2402 as well. He makes A&P as simple as it vs be, but there is a lot to cover in this course. He gives good opportunities to make a good grade. He also makes it cheaper for the students, by the study tools needed!
This is the worst professor I have ever had. I am a senior, so I have taken many classes. You never know if he will take days to respond or a few hours. He grades lab assignments very harshly. All of my info was right, but I had 30 points taken off because of the camera I used. He does not answer your questions well if you email him. Do not take!
DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS! He is extremely rude when responding to emails about instructions. And you will have plenty of questions, because his instructions make no sense. Once he does respond, he is very unclear with his answers. He is no help if you are struggling and his powerpoints are often wrong. Do yourself a favor and take another professor!
AWESOME PROFESSOR WILL TAKE AGAIN IN SUMMER II
Tough Instructor but quite fair. I had to work for my A in this Class. He's very structured and organized. Lazy students in my class often complain about his many assignments. He was d structurediscipline I needed for Nursing school. I missed a Lab video assignment almost cost me my A. Follow his Instructions and due dates and you would do well
Best teacher Ever! Clear notes and Instructions. Very passionate teacher wants you to succeed. Made an A in BIOL-2401 ALL Online and taking him again for AP II Online for Spring. Use his Online quizzes as a Review/Practice for his Exams. I love this man! Take him.
First off, his syllabus is 21 pages long!!! Nice instructor but requires a lot! Be very organized and don't fall behind! His magic number is 100! 100 quiz questions per chapter, 3 chapters per test! IF you take him, BE PREPARED TO STUDY AND WORK VERY HARD!
This class was extremely frustrating from day one. The syllabus was incorrect causing lost points on the orientation quiz. He admitted to an incorrect question yet never gave me the points missed. The lab book he wrote had many errors as did the lab quizzes/website. Dr. P will can be very condescending and confusing in emails.
Not trying to discourage anyone but this teacher is horrible Good Luck!
Not kidding when I say worst teacher ever! Stay away...
Tough Class, Great Professor. Yes he makes you work for it. If you want to succeed in Medicine take him. Lecture Topics are tied and related to Clinical Applications and importance. Very thorough and organized, Notes and Instructions are very very clear. To get your A, study the ppt notes, use the Online Lecture & Lab Quizzes as Review.
Very encouraging and supportive even when you are failing this tough AP class. I almost dropped the class, advised me to stay in it. Still came out with a B. He brings the Best out of you. Be disciplined, complete assignments on time and you would do great. Watch his Lecture videos, I wish I'd done that earlier. Thanks Dr. P
Thank you Dr. P for being an amazing teacher this semester. Although the time was short (Minimester), I thoroughly enjoyed being taught by this Professor.
He is passionate about making his students succeed in all areas
No! No! No! No! DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR. He is NOT helpful and the amount of quizzes, tests, homework is unbelieveable. He is also not a veyr nice person.
This is BEST teacher I have ever had. Very organized and thorough. AP is Not an easy class, but Dr. P. Is fair, lots of homework as practice grades quizzes for the exams that helped me learned the stuff and put me into A grade. I am taking his AP 2 Online for Summer. Take him if you want to learn and not just for an easy grade.
There is a lot to learn but he gives you the tools to do so. I have found mistakes on a few of his lab quizzes and he can be very condescending when asking for clarity. However, I will say that I am impressed at how much extra he does for the students. He writes very detailed and thorough email replies and his lecture videos are great.
Dr P Greatest Teacher EVER period! His impact as professor has extended beyond the walls of the classroom, and I (as well as all of his other students) am very fortunate to have had the opportunity to be in his class. He wrote my Letter of Recommendation has helped me gain acceptance into PA Program. Take his class IF you want a career in Medicine
It was a good experience taking Dr. Aboloye's class this being my first online class. Very helpful feedbacks and positive encouragement when I was struggling in his class. Review questions from Online graded quizzes saved my world. Use them effectively, I didn't initially, quiz questions are on Lecture Exams. No hands-on-lab. Love this man! Thanks
Listen, I'm a strong believer that you get what you pay for with these community college courses. The teachers are all pretty bad, but this guy takes the cake. His powerpoints aren't clear, his teaching is laughable, and, on top of all of that, his tests are a total nightmare. I'm an A student from a UNIVERSITY that is struggling with this guy. RUN
You will hate yourself for taking this class, like don't do it. DON'T. He swears his exams are just like the homework but it's not.
The syllabus was confusing. Each assignment had at least 100 questions and there were an average of two per a week along with discussion posts. The lecture videos were long and BORING! The mandatory lab manual was written by the professor and no help. The lecture tests had 100 questions and the lab tests had over 50 questions each.
Will take his Online APP 2 class again in Summer 2. He provided you with all you need for the class and to be successful, IF yu do the work. Lazy students in the class who don't do the work complain, I see them at Testing Ctr all the time. AP is hard but you need Dr. P's clinical experience to break it down for you. Excellent teacher above all.
This is my first time taking a science class online and I love that he posted all resources for us to utilize, notes, handout & video. And I thank him for that not all professors do that. Well organized. With a much better effort I could have gotten A instead of my B grade, If I had used the resources much earlier in the semester. I Recommend him.
Do not take this professor! He is very condescending. And I wish I would have searched his name before. Teaching is not his passion it's his last resort!! Run!!!!!!
BEST Teacher Ever! Finished Oncampus API yesterday, ALL classmates (Most frm Major Universities) commended his effort in using real life clinical application to Class Topics. "Very Animated" in teaching. I learned ALOT from him. His Dog Bark is Bigger than his Bite ie Better personality than portrail here. You get what you put in,Will take his AP2
Best Prof in my undergrad so far. If you want to have very sound knowledge for AP nursing, take his class. A&P is CRITICAL to all careers Health profession. Dr. P explain it to you with passion. Hell help yu get thru difficulties of AP & infuse knowledge of learning in college & to bcome positive adult w critical thinking, bringing out BEST of you
Prof P, is awesome. I retook this class in summer and got am A! His lecture videos, power point notes and quizzes are what you need to study to do well. I have learned so much in this class and look forward to taking him in the fall for 2402. He gives a lecture exam for each ch 100 ?S each. Lab quizzes are easy. Discussions are also easy.
I really love Professor P's class! He makes the content really understandable for an online class. Gave good feedback when I thought I was not doing as well. Timely responses. I will take him again in a flash.
It was pleasure taking this course under Dr. P supervision. I learned a lot with his lectures & supplementary notes were so helpful and detailed. I must say Summer was challenging but managed to make A cos of his organized/planned syllabus. Looking forward to AP II this Fall. Thank God for Dr P and more power to him.
Dr. P communication skills are horrible. True, he gives you a lot of information, but if you don't understand it, well you're just out of luck. Wish I got the same experience as everyone else.
An excellent Online class. I learned so much by the way he tailored class to contain the clinical applications and given me countless ah-ha! moments about why things are the way they are in the ER where I work. Challenging, but well worth it in the end. I am sure I am not the 1st or last who will be thanking him 4 a wonderful AP class. Best Prof!
Could not have done it without Dr. P's organized notes and lecture/lab videos. I took the AP 1 at my university with a C, retook it with Dr P, got an A, and the AP 2 also w/ an A. This Instructor stands equal or above our university professors.
I don't have any complaints with the way he covers course content, my issue is with him ignoring emails. With this being an all online course I find this totally unacceptable, and plainly, rude. Don't take the course if you're not strong with independent study courses. Other than the material posted in blackboard, you're on your own.
I didn't know what to expect from this totally online class. I have read great things about Dr. P but 1 thing stands out: he's dedicated to his students success. Clearly stated grading and expectations, yes he makes you work for your grade (homework & assignment) that helps you understand the materials. Online quizzes are extremely helpful on exams
I wish Dr. P teaches other Classes, would likely take them with him. Better teacher than my University "professors", clear Topics, notes and Exams. Lots of Resources (videos, quizzes, review sheets and discussion board), If you have to use them well you would ACE his class!
Dr. Pius is a very knowledgeable Professor. His lectures are very detailed and he does expect a lot from his students but you will learn a lot in this class. Just be prepared to do A LOT of homework. His tests are very hard. I don't recommend for nursing students. More if you want to be a doctor. I ended up having to retake the course.
He is extra hard, makes you take double quizzes , the review is not like the test. His powerpoints videos are like reading the powerpoints on your own and labs are easy and disscusion points always difficult to do
I took Dr.p for AP 1. Great professor, he knows what his talking about. He will make lecture and lab both interesting. You'll want to come to class everyday. Know your left and right and don't forget it. I definitely recommend him. No text book needed only lab manual and access code. You won't regret it.
If you want an easy A, don't take. If you really want to learn & retain what you learn take him. Online "quizzes" for every chapter w/100 questions each! Lab also has quizzes for each chapter, not as many questions & a lot easier. Lab is why I got a B instead of an C. In lab you are not given a word bank so you have to really know everything.
Excellent Teacher, clear Instructions and grading. As a Nursing student, I feel more prepared now after his AP II class than I was with AP I from my other University. I truly appreciate his clear and fast responses. I have enjoyed Dr. P's class.
Wow! The BEST Prof, I have ever had (period!) that really cares and pays attention to "you getting it". I've heard bad thing about A&P, but he makes his class enjoyable and easy to follow. You have to do the work, as in all AP classes. I will be taking his A&P II this Summer Online.
I just got accepted to Nursing School, yeaaah! Thanks to Dr. P for his inspiration and encouragement, and for believing in me. Thanks a bunch. He expects the BEST of you because he gives you his Best.
I have truly enjoyed Dr. P Online class. He has some of the BEST Lecture Notes I have encountered including those from my bigger university. He is quick to responding to your questions on time with clear explanation. Take him any day!
TAKE HIS CLASS. I am so thankful I took his class! Dr. P is caring and passionate and you will surely learn from his lectures. He does his BEST to not only teach you the material but he actually helps you to understand it to apply it in your career. I wish I was able to take other classes with him, he is an awesome professor.
dont take him! he makes you purchase a lab manual that HE published to complete COMPLETION activity exercises for credit. I did just that but i didnt have a scanner so i didnt even get the credit for completing it. i would have made an A but he refused to give me credit. not a hard class just a difficult teacher
I thoroughly enjoyed his A&P 2 course and feel as though it has truly prepared me for my future graduate level studies. If you want an easy A or you are lazy, then this course is not for you, But if you want to learn for your career future, then take him, yes he makes you earn your grade. I recommend Dr. P above any other AP Professors out there.
If this course is required for the program you are going into I suggest finding another teacher! His way or the hwy. The work is easy but the test are nothing like anything done in class. He isnt a teacher willing to go out of his way to work with you by any means.
A very good Professor. I got admission into my this week. So excited! I couldn't have done it without Dr. P's help. I will never forget how much he's done for me. He continuously went above and beyond to prepare us for the future. Ill always remember how he'll explained actin and myosin, using balloons for Resp, and his other visual demonstrations.
Study and you'll get the A. He's really passionate and knowledgable! I wished I can another class with him.
I believe he is an amazing Professor who works hard in order for us to succeed. I just finished Summer I. No I didn't receive the A that I wanted. But proud of my B thanks to Dr. P's encouragement and positive feedback. And knowing that I know my A & P II better than the prior teacher I had for AP I.
Took AP1 Oncampus & AP2 Online. Overall wonderful AP experience, enjoyed his lectures and appreciated his support & encouragement to see students succeed in his class. His study TIPS will always be on my mind as I pursue this medical career. I feel prepared!
Took his class online. Out of the 45 courses I have completed online this was the most difficult. Very confusing syllabus and not to clear. To him it is clear because he puts everything on it. Just loaded with information that repeats itself You have a lab that is due the first day of class along with other assignments. Not sure where to find info
Worst online class I've taken. Syllabus and function of the online class is extremely disorganized. Information is just everywhere and nothing is clear. Had a headache trying to decipher what was being said in the 3 syllabus's and trying to figure out how the class works. Do not take.
I don't know about online but I took him for A&P I on campus and he is great, he has plenty of experience and explains the material so you will understand it. ECampus quizzes are 100 questions each but those questions are on the exam so it is very helpful. He is difficult but definitely worth the stress, I am going to take him for A&P II.
Dr P is timely to your email responses, I really love this class! He make the content really understandable for an online class. I ve learned so much, & the way he tailored his class to contain the clinical applications. Students who don't want to do work or learn would find his classes challenging. The class stacks up against some of UT hard class
I am doing my second year at a Nursing school, without Dr. P's help I wouldn't be here. All the A & P concepts and the multiple Online practice quizzes helped with the HESI and Board Exams. North Lake is very lucky to have him and am glad I took his classes
He gave the best to us in his teaching. Plus good advice, encouragement, and always encouraging us to performed at a higher level. I will forever be grateful. Recommend Dr. P highly
Overall he's hard and a-lot of work, but if you want to take a class where you can retain information and actully learn for the future then take him. He does 100 question quizes for each chapter and 30-40 question lab quizes for each chapter. Also, 1/4-1/2 of his lecture exams are from the quizes ( so study them). Lecture is much harder than Lab :)
Best Instructor in DCCCD, his examples and jokes in class makes you remember and retain stuff. Cares about you passing and succeeding. Never boring class. He is more lively in person than his pre-recorded Lecture Videos are. Taking Dr. P again for AP II in Spring. I just took the HESI Exam and Dr. P's class prepared me well.
I took his class online, & it was very confusing. He wasn't very organized, everything is kind of all over the place. There is a ton of work. The test are difficult and the practice material and power points do not help much. It is pretty much teach yourself.
I took his class online, there is lots of homework (very time consuming) which is fine, but even with doing all your homework barely helps your grade out. The open stax online book/lab code both do not have great studying tools. BUY A ANATOMY 2 book, only way to pass. His lab code(mggraw was not helpful ) . TEST ARE TRICKY
I just want to thank Dr. P for being so available and transparent throughout the entire Wintermester. Quick email responsI never took an online class before but he made the class enjoyable. He gave us multiple opportunities to obtain a good score and I pray he would be able to have same impact on other students like he'd had for me. I recommend him
Look I'm going to be completely honest. Rate my comment low go ahead. Dr. P's class is EXTREMELY hard! Nothing that I reviewed or studied was on the test. It makes me very upset that I studied ALL that he tells us to study and to NO avail I didn't do well. Makes ZERO sense that no matter WHAT I do, I cannot pass the exam well. STUDY ON YOUR OWN!
Dr. P is a fantastic teacher! He made lab and lectures interesting while making sure everyone understood the concepts and what would be covered on the exams. You can tell he puts a lot of effort in and truly wants his students to succeed. I would definitely recommend him for anyone needing to take A&P.
I just wanted to thank Dr. P and let you all know that the information I learned in his class over 2 years ago held its relevance into my current academic endeavors as Dental student. This Professor is thorough and very helpful to succeeding in A&P and in life. Highly recommend DCCCD's BEST Teacher.
This class was certainly hard! But main reason for that is Dr. A spends time and teaches you the physiology portion extremely well. Some of the shortcuts he taught, I still use in medical school! So this wont be an easy A but well worth it if you want to do yourself a favor and prepare for a future in healthcare/medicine.
VERY confusing syllabus & inordinately difficult to understand grading scales. Uses same syllabus/schedule for reg semester class as the shortened mini-mester class, so that makes it even MORE difficult to understand what is due when. The ONLY good thing was the Lab & Lecture exams were separate, but those could have been easily combined. BAD, BAD.
Dr. P is by far one of the best professors I have ever had. Although I did not receive the greatest grade, I feel like Dr. P has taught me so much that I will hopefully go on to use in nursing. I hope to take him for AP2. He is very motivational and cares about his students success. He also responds to emails fairly fast.
I really appreciate all the effort Dr P put into his classes. I enjoyed the class & learned a lot. His lectures were great & I am very grateful for all d resources he made available to us. I can't remember ever having a teacher that's truly invested in their student's education. Thanks Doc P for all that you do to benefit students. He is the bomb
He's a nice guy and he puts in a lot of effort but everything moves so quickly. Then his tests are so challenging.
I have NEVER had to think of repeating a class with a failing grade. Iam an A student , if I say that repeat a class with a failing grade, you do understand im devastated. His syllabus is NOT CLEAR , his instructions very confusing and when you ask for clarification, he tells you to read the instructions and again instructions are not clear .
I love his Videos for Lecture & Lab. Lots of resources provided and if you use them well, you will pass with A. His ppt Notes and online quizzes are the key for Exams. Most Exams questions come from the quizzes. Yes he gave lots of Homework (the quizzes & Discussion Threads), they help your grade and help you learn, if you want to learn
Best professor ever! He truly wants his students to succeed . I will be honest, this is a class that I recommend you do not skip. Also there is a lot of homework, but it is manageable. Its A&P so of course it wont be easy, you must work hard for an A. As long as you do all the quizzes and STUDY the PowerPoint notes, youll be fine.
Dr. P was a very good professor, his powerpoint notes were very informative and interesting as he applied everything to clinical situations. He is truly invested in his student's and is willing to work with you to succeed. You need to put in the work since anatomy is hard, study his powerpoint notes and chapter quizzes and you will be fine.
Very disappointed w/ my experience in the online class w/ this professor. Syllabus & info on blackboard is UNCLEAR. There is a thousand pages of info all over the place & is repetitive. When I asked for help, he copy & pasted exactly what I already read, which was sent to me in 2 separate emails. Wow. His materials do not prepare you for tests.
Best engaging Online class I have ever taken. Threaded Discussions and Online quizzes keeps you engaged on important concepts 4 understanding . The quizzes alsays prepare you for his Exams. You can tell this Professor is invested in his students' success. Rapid feedback on emails. I took both APIAP2 with Dr. P with As,wish he teaches other subject
Dr P is a super UNORGANIZED teacher. Descriptions and information are everywhere on the course site. You'll take for hours to find the answer of your question. Also, he is a doctor, so some of homework is about medicine or condition related to the chapter. This is NOT pharmacology or pathophysiology class, it's just too much. Tests are also TOUGH!!
this is the best professor ive ever had!!!he explains well in class and have a lot of energy and effort to teach the class everything that they should know!!he use very good examples so u can easily visualize what he is trying to say!!all his powerpoints are full of detail!! i mean all you need to know about the class and exam is all there!!!!!
I absolutely love the makeup of his course. The notes -lecture/lab videos were extremely helpful. Examples help you see/visualize what concepts are. Very engaging course setup. If you use the resources you would make your A. Don't use them & you have yourself to blame with a bad grade. Don't blame this Dr. P That's on you. Best Professsor in DCCCD.
Horrible horrible horrible professor. You basically have all these assignments (chaper quizzes, discussion boards, lab assignments) but it doesnt boost your grade help it anything basically if you do good on the lab and exam you will pass if not your fail because nothing helps your grade ohh if you dont do your assignments it will drop your grade
I always appreciate Dr. Ps responses they are quick and efficient. Fastest responding professor Ive ever had!! He is Very helpful. If you want to learn, his Online class setup was more than I expected. More engaging than my previous online classes. Assignments and Discussion Board: very student friendly & helps you prep for Exams. Taking AP2 Sprg
Never take the hybrid class! The material given to you is NOTHING like the test. Be ready to teach yourself. There are usually 3 chapters for each module and 100 question quizzes per chapter (not including the lab quizzes). He requires you to buy his personal "lab manual" it's really just a workbook, but does not really have any useful information.
Around DENSE 400 slides per exam. Good if you REALLY want to learn. Not an easy class.
Do not take this class if you are willing to take 100 question lecture quizzes + 50 lab question quizzes for each chapter. Very unorganized teacher. Do not recommend taking if you are not willing to teach yourself because the material is nothing like the quizzes.
DO. NOT. TAKE. THIS. CLASS. Dr. P is the by far the most difficult and most confusing professor I've ever had. Syllabus and assignment instructions are all over the place. Test are nothing like the 100 question quizzes. He lectures and gives his exams as if we're already doctors and not A&P 1 students. Just all around horrible professor. RUN!
just want to say thank Dr. P for his teaching and i can proudly say that he forced me to be a better student and i have learned so much from his class about anatomy and about myself as i found different ways to study the material the best way that would benefit me. Thanks for his lectures and personal time. If you are lazy, his class is not 4 you
I always appreciate this Professors fast responses they are quick and efficient. Fastest responding professor Ive ever had!! He cares if you want to learn
Fair Warning: Do NOT take any of his fast track classes.
He was not even the teacher I signed up for when choosing my section. He claims if you come to class you will know the material, but in the end I ended up teaching myself most of it. On the upside due to the amount of homework you have it does give you wiggle room if you do bad on one test.
I signed up with M. Chong and class was with P. Aboloye online lecture goes by videos no book neces. Everything is found on quizlet. Just study quizzes for tests for both lecture and lab and you can pass. Lab teacher was totally different than from registration. Pro. Lashgari was lab teach. easy going very lenient. Gives xtra-credit.
DONT TAKE THE ONLINE CLASS! the weekly assignments are too much no required text book but he requires you to buy his expensive lab workbook but is not helpful to the material. This prof is VERY unorganized and confusing when it comes to syllabus and due dates, i emailed him a question and he pasted from the syllabus what i already read and was rude
NEVER TAKE HIS SUMMER ONLINE CLASS!! His class is on another level. Every week you have so many assignments in additon to your test. Some of the questions on your test are from your assignments, but most of it isn't. Be expected to give alot of your time because if you don't study your going to fail his class. Avoid him if you can
Beware of this professor he does set you up for success and is unorganized. He makes you buy a lot of book and passcodes, all books made by him of coarse. He was never in class more than 15 minutes then let another professor take over which was good for lab but when it came to lecture, I had no idea what was going on. He made it hard to understand.
I took AP 1 &2 w/ Dr. P, thanks for all of his love and support, letters. I got into Med School Last Fall, coulnt have done it without Dr P help, wisdom/support. He Pushed me to do better & I will forever be grateful to have him. All that I learnt frm him are now obvious foundation & repeat Topics/concepts in my current Med classes. Learn frm him.
Very responsive to emails and phone call. Love he Online Discussion Threads
dont do the fast track class. 2 exams, discussions, and multiple hw assignments weekly. when you email him a question he just copy-pastes the syllabus which doesnt answer the question. his review sheets also dont prepare you for exams. he says all you need is his ppts and videos and youll do good but ppts do not give all the info that is on exams
A dedicated Professor. As a returning student w business career switching to Nursing, didn't know wht to expect w these classes. Dr. P is very thorough in his Online class. Study his ppt notes & weekly quizzes (yes that's alot of hw), & yu would pass with B or A. More than half of hw quizzes are Exams (lec/lab) anyway. Fail to study & yu Fail exam
Tough class but do-able. Homework online quizzes are helpful but the lecture videos those are also extremely helpful! Take Dr. P if you want to learn A & P, not for easy A. I learned a lot this Fast Track class. Planning on taking him for BIOL-2402
I will not take this professor anymore cause this professor is thinking that he is teaching in a medical school even though he is a doctor, but we are not in medical school we still in college, so his questions is very hard and heavy, he doesnt care about you, he just need his work to be done not focus on important things. Will not take him again.
I didn't fully understand the 18-page syllabus and was yelled at and berated in front of the whole class for asking for clarification. He accused me of not reading it because "if I read it I would understand it". I really did read it, multiple times. English isn't my first language so I had trouble. I dropped the class on the first day.
love Dr. P and his class examples. wants the best out of you. I learnt alot about me and how to study and succeed. Lots of homework but they are good for review for the 100question lecture Exam. Will take him again
One of the best professors in the field. You don't want to miss his lecture even though attendance is not mandatory. This course it self is tough and require you to study, but he explains every topic so well and make it fun and relates to everyday life. If you're planning to pursue your career in nursing get his class and learn for lifetime.
The best professor I have ever had, period. He makes things easier to understand and allows you to see things from all angles. He constantly makes jokes and is super funny which makes learning from him more enjoyable. You have to really put in the effort to get a good grade in the class, but he does his best to ensure that you do well.
The class isn't difficult as long as you do the hw/online quizzes. I didn't listen to a single lecture, just google quizlet answers for hw and review it with ppt slides before exams. My only problem is that he requires you to drop a couple hundred bucks to buy the lab manual/online portion and homework takes a while. It is also fast paced.
B4 taking the class,Dr. P advised me on how to study My experience was more than I hoped for. It was very rewarding to be challenged. And I really enjoyed Dr P lectures online. He used pneumonic that helped me remember & additions like the calcium boys, I wont forget. though the class is hard but you WILL learn. It was pleasure to take his class
He was the rudest professor I have ever had. He made me feel stupid over something I was confused over. I get it he has a PhD but he isnt better than his students. He uses PowerPoint and online lectures for his course and says thats all you need to pass, ITS NOT. Be smart and take someone who cares about their students and wants them to succeed.
Literally made an account on here just to warn people to NEVER take this professor. Way too much material to possibly learn each week. I studied every lecture, homework, and lab he gave us every week and still made D's and C's on tests. On top of that, prof is rude and disrespectful when you try to reach out to him with questions. TAKE ANYONE ELSE!
DO. NOT. TAKE. THIS. PROFESSOR. Especially for fast track. Negatives: Extremely confusing syllabus and never straight forward answers. I studied hard, printed off everything he told us to for lecture exams and still failed every exam . Positives: lab portions were easy and there's enough homework to help with your final grade.
Taken during an 8 week online course -working full time w/a baby. If you read his ppts & study your quizzes, you should do fine. He provides pre recorded lectures, power points, plenty of optional practice, and study sessions prior to exams. Labs are easy. Great if you are going into the medical field and you want to learn and be challenged.
Doctor P is an actual doctor with an MD behind his name, and knows all of what he's talking about. I took both AP I and II back to back and can say that it was one of the best experiences. Get ready to work for your grade, lecture material can be dense, and requires a good amount of studying. Now off to nursing school with unmeasurable knowledge.
Dr. P is great. This is probably one of the best classes I have taken. His lectures and powerpoints are spot on. It's alot of work but well worth it. He gives many assignments that gives you an opportunity you to raise your grade and helps with memorization. I will take all my future sciences with Dr. P. Text book and quizzes were all on line.
5 lecture exams 4 labs drops the lowest grades.100 ?'s quizzes per chapter and discussion boards. You don't need a book as long as you study the PPts ( REALLY STUDY! and understand concepts) you will be fine. it is NOT an easy class, but you will definitely learn so much from it. DO NOT TAKE IF YOU WANT AN EASY A
Seems like a lot of work at first, but you really memorize the material well while doing the tests and discussion boards. Powerpoints + great video lectures (online class) + doing all the assignments in time is enough for a good grade. And you actually get knowledge! Honestly, I don't understand why some say "difficult"... It's studying, babe!
The class was not hard to earn a good grade in and he gives you plenty of studying material to be prepared. However, his syllabus and instructions were so disorganized I felt like I spent more time trying to figure out what he wanted us to do than studying for the actual class. A lot of confusion in the format of his instructions waste of time.
Completely disorganized and a nightmare to sort out. A class shouldn't require so much effort in simply figuring out the required assignments. Would not recommend this professor due to the sheer amount of chaos this course brought to my life. Syllabus was unimaginably obtuse and impossible to figure out. Stay away from this class and professor.
I really enjoyed Dr. P's A&P I class this past semester and appreciate all of the clinical applications included in the course. The way he taught the material helped me understand the concepts thouroughly instead of just memorizing the concepts. I have signed up for your A&P II course during Spring, and I am looking forward to another semester.
DO NOT take him, he is not understanding at all no matter what situation. He is disrespectful, doesnt care about you at all. His syllabus is confusing its hard to find anything, test are ridiculous. You cant even ask him a questions because he doesnt answer it. He will acuse you of cheating over the dumbest things. Worst teacher ever.
Definitely a hard class , you can study all day, understand the concepts, study the powerpoints the best you can but there is so much information that its impossible to do so . I even took off work for this class . Hes rude on emails and its hard to understand him on the lecture videos. If you fail the exams dont expect to pass the class.
At the beginning understanding the syllabus was definitely confusing but once you start the class and actually get to work it, it's not bad. Once you know the syllabus everything is clear cut and dry. The lecture videos and power points are long, make sure you have good time management. It will be easy to pass if you have time management and study.
This is the absolute worst professor I have encountered. Syllabus is not efficient. Went to his office so he can explain his expectations of the class and the syllabus Not only was he late, he brought a crying baby to the office who just recently defecated in his diaper. Also, he could not explain his OWN syllabus.
I took this Professor during the 4week Winter & made A+. Tough class but was do-able even during Holidays, if you are dedicated. I found Dr. P' Notes, Syllabus and Announcements are extremely helpful. He's very structured/organized & very fair, some of my classmates don't like his no-nonsense style for excuses (extension for exams/hw). Best Prof
I want to say thank you, so much to Dr P for his help and tips. I went from making 60-70s to passing with a 92 on exam 4! Once again thanks for his inspiration and motivation help, and was able to pull out a B. I will take him for any class.
This Professor has an amazing Online setup that beats all the other Online classes I have taken (and I've taken plenty), so far. Very engaging class. Dr. P's lecture notes and video plus Online quizzes are sufficient for an A. I don't get why some say its difficult, you have to Study people! ... to learn! I took his AP I and AP II 8-weeks, w/ A's
THE WORST! Literally so extra and for no reason, not flexible at all! He kept having test weekends and I told him I work, he basically said that sucked but Im running on his time. Talks way too much, emails and updates are so long and he gets off track easily
The class has not ended yet, here I am writing an review over the professor. I am taking this course for summer 1 first there is a lot of work with due dates every week. The course set up is confusing! He has you take the lecture and lab exam the beginning of the week when you have not even got a chance to go over the content on the exam.
All test or exams are protected and any movement out of camera getting the red show up, is counted as cheating to him! the exams are over the quizzes you took but it is so much material to study and intake within a short amount of time. I would not recommend this professor whatsoever. Course would easier if there was no due dates since it is fast
first I was overwhelmed. got used to it: one lab + lecture exam a week, webcam browser. learned 2 hours daily + hour for quiz (quizlet/untimed/worth a test grade). HW + discussion board is essentially free points. Each exam is 100 Qs + EC, so you can get lots wrong but get an A. fast emails, daily reminders, highly recommend! v easy to score well
I actually failed the 1st lab and lec (lol I forgot). Lowest grade dropped: one lab lecture exam a week, webcam proctored. HW, discussions, quizzes, lab exercises essentially free points! Each exam has 100 Qs + EC, so you can get an A. fast emails, daily reminders, highly recommend! v easy to score well. A lot of work but worth it and helps you!
I haven't even finished this course but here I am rating my professor because it's just too overwhelming, if you take this class make sure you have no other responsibilities like kids and work because it's hard making time for that and being a part of this class. you're on his time, you have a lot of studying to do and very limited time for it.
I'll say based on my experience of plenty Online classes: the BEST Professor in Dallas College. Clear grading, great structure and format, ppt notes clear. Assignments: yes plenty but counts toward your grade plus helps you understand and study. Failed to do Quizzes before the Exams and you would fail the EXAMS. If you are lazy don't take his class
At first don't let his syllabus scare you, it is very confusing the way he formats it. He will let you know what due dates are coming up and he will go over powerpoints with you to make sure you know what to study. He does have long assignments but they are easy to do mostly labeling or quizzes. Make sure you study and it'll be very easy.
Despite this being an online course, I wanted to thank Dr. P for all the resources provided, such as the pre-recorded lectures and threaded discussions, that have allowed me to be successful in his course! I have no doubt that this information will be useful for my future endeavors. Fast responds to my questions and emails even during the Holidays
I think this professor is very arrogant. I don't know why he even became a professor. He has no empathy.
As long as you study his notes you will do just fine. He is not super hard, but of course you have to study with anything. His exams are exactly what you review and as long as you study your lab manual and notes he provides you will be fine. His lecture videos helped me out a lot. I was able to ask questions and he answered me always.
Dr. P gave excellent teaching methodology. He made A&P II interesting, easy to comprehend, and he was always available to answer our queries. I have learned a lot under his guidance and I hope to take more of his classes in future. Thanks Dr. P for all you do for your students.
As the semester went on, the level of difficulty increased week by week. I had anticipated that. With the lectures, powerpoints, labs and quizzes, Dr. P prepared us exceptionally well for every week's exams. I have learned so much from this course and I am excited to take Part 2 with Dr. P this summer. Awesome Professor.
Dr.P is okay. The class itself was challenging. There is a lot of information in a short time (summer). Also, the syllabus was very confusing; the professor repeated the same information repeatedly, which made it overwhelming and confusing. I wish he had the course better organized.
Online class, well organized format for self taught. He had Virtual Office hours 2x/week and he is available so you can pop in to ask questions, very helpful. Homework Assignments-Quizzes seems a lot initially, but Extremely helpful as most questions from the quizzes are on Exams. Master them and you will do well. Great teacher
Just flat out awful and that's putting it nicely. Hes hard to understand, thick accent which makes learning hard. Doesn't respond to emails half of the time. Doesn't seem to care if you pass or fail. Not understanding what-so-ever. So much stuff is due you can't even learn the material. BEWARE! Pick a different prof it's for your best interest!
MR P IS THE WORSE PROFESSOR I HAVE EVER MET. HE is arrogant and rude. never reposes to email his syllabus are very confusing he doesn't care about the students. do not take his class, BEWARE! Pick a different prof it's in your best interest!
He gives you ALL the resources to succeed in his class. If you do all the quizzes before any of his exams, you will be more than ready for them. People that complain about him being "hard" are the students that tend to leave during open lab or that don't even show up to lecture classes. He is an amazing professor!
An EFFECTIVE Teacher, teaches topics with examples & applications you can relate to & remember. Fast email responses, Dr P is available after class. Complaining classmates are always 1st to leave during open Lab time or chronically absent for Classes. He's very enthusiastic, engaging & encouraging, wanting students to succeed, Taking his AP2 next
(Physical class) if you got a life outside of college, you have a job, got kids, DO NOT take his class. He has no pity on this students. I submitted my homework like 4 min before the due date due to some technical reasons and he graded 0 saying it was a late submission, which was not fair to me. I tried so hard but still got C on this course.
PLEASE DO NOT TAKE INSTRUCTOR FOR 8 WEEK COURSE! HE GIVES ENTIRELY TOO MUCH WORK AND STILL EXPECTS YOU TO STUDY THOROUGHLY. HE IS NOT ECAMPUS SAVVY WHICH MADE NAVIGATING HIS COURSE NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE. THERE WAS TOO MUCH UNNECESSARY INFORMATION AND NOT ENOUGH WHEN NEEDED. HE DOES NOT GIVE FEEDBACK ON GRADES ESPECIALLY IF YOU DONT RECEIVE WHOLE SCORE
Best Professor in Dallas College. Reply to my emails within 4hrs even weekends. Virtual Office Hrs very helpful for mini-semesters for immediate answers. Lots of Homework quizzes that is exactly on Exams. Good Discussion Board. Love Dr. P attentiveness to details and to students but he's strict and not a pushover. Great prep class for my RN school
Took 4 week class, I let him know what grade I needed and he gave me helpful tips to pass. First anatomy prof I had that did not have fill in the blanks for exams. Discussion boards due weekly and a lab/lec exam as well. Sends email reminders with due dates weekly. Drops your lowest lab and lecture exam. Just do the work and focus you will pass!
He said my complaints is bogus about his slides and software not working I sent pictures, he didn't care he wanted the work due no exceptions, regardless of the malfunctioning software!!!
Good teacher and a Christian. Had Bible jokes in class. Very thorough and detailed but doesn't allow for petty excuses like extension for missed homework. Do your homework quizzes and the ppt notes and you will make an A. A motivational Professor
I have never written a negative RPM review in all four years of college. Please let that speak for itself. This teacher is extremely unorganized and I do not know what students he replies to, but he never answered a single email of mine throughout this semester. If you care about your grades take at all take this class with ANYONE else
I took his 8-week A&P 1 class and I don't recommend. Syllabus was very hard to follow, and he gives way too much work. No study guides for test and no lecture videos to take notes. You'll be teaching yourself if you take his class.
Dr. P is all bark, and no bite when you get to know him, really cares for his students and wants you to succeed. But you must do the work including the homework. No gimmes. Best advise to succeed: study his ppt notes & homework quizzes, these are your study-guides as half of the Online Homework quizzes are on every Exam. Do that you can make an A.
I am writing this to say thank you to Dr. P for having me in his class. The two things I liked most are his focus to connect the course with practical aspects in real life: Clinical implications. And his effort to maintain the course integrity. In Generally, it was a good time.
Took Dr. P's AP I & II Oncampus 8wk classes, he's amazing if you attend class! You miss out when you miss his Lectures. His explanation and videos are to the point. He encouraged me when struggling in AP I with personal issues. That impacted me in really big positive way, much more than you can imagine! Dr. P was supportive & encouraging. Best ever
I took his AP2401 8-week course online and struggled a lot. There's so much information to memorize within a short amount of time, his syllabus was a bit confusing, and he claims the PowerPoints were enough to pass his class but I don't agree. I found myself googling so much because I couldn't find anything on the PowerPoints for the assignments.
Very Rude. He doesn't understand the language properly; his online video is unclear, blurry, and static; he is not a professional prof.. He even argued with one of our classmates and asked her to drop the class instead of explaining the issue and going through it. I wish I could share that recording here. I highly recommend not to take this prof.
A quick note to express my sincere gratitude to Dr. P for simplifying such a complex subject to make it incredibly understandable. Am looking forward for more units with him. ppt notes and Online quizzes are to the point and helpful on Exams.
Very Difficult class, disorganized. Quizzes have 100 questions on Lab per chapter. You are doing 700+ questions a week if you take his summer class. Made an A by not sleeping and memorizing hundreds of questions and 150 slides per week. The professor is good, but the curriculum was INTENSE. If you have a job do not take this in summer.
The class is intense, with a heavy workload, but Professor Pius is generally good. I found unstuckstudy ai and ChatGPT very helpful for study prep. Attend class, use the textbook, and put in the effort - it's worth it.
I would not recommend taking this instructor's class. Main goal appears to be overly focused on failing students rather than supporting their learning. The content is taught at an excessively advanced level, which is unnecessary for nursing students. It seems he's more interested in making the course challenging than ensuring student success.
Be warned!!! Do NOT take him for an 8-week course. So much info to intake in such little time! Unlike other profs who usually drop topics that are not needed in a fast course, he does not, every useless detail has to be memorized. He says anything capitalized, highlighted, bold, or starred in the PPTs is important, guess what? Everything is!!!!!!!!
Worst professor I've even met. Overreacts on everything
He gives very good lectures and has good stories about his time in the medical field. The coursework is a bit heavy but its fair I would say. My rating mostly comes from the fact he cannot for the life of himself stop talking about Trump and fake news. Wearing Trump merch and even lecturing students on who to vote for. This isn't political science
He was very encouraging and good at explaining but the work load is heavy and its very fast paced. I wouldn't recommend this class as an 8-week course if you are not ready to get a bunch of new information dumped onto you every class, you can succeed if you study LOTS but if you have a job and other things to do, good luck...
Dr. P was very dedicate to our class throughout this semester. I truly appreciate the knowledge and guidance he shared. The course challenged me to grow, and I'm grateful for the experience. Thank you for making a difference in my life. 
There is so much information given within a short span of time. Do not take his class if you are not doing a full semester. Not only that, the online class is heavily complicated. You got the lab through his website then quiz on that website. Then lab quiz on ecampus. Then lecture exams Then discussions Nice guy but dude this is not medical school.
This was a very well-planned course! I have taken several Online classes, this is the BEST formatted and interactive. He responded to my emails and questions very fast. Nice person. I'm taken him for AP 2 next. Homework assignment quizzes are helpful for Exams, just do them ahead of Tests.
DO NOT take this class in 8 weeks if u have a job. I did the hybrid class it was hard, but it can be done. The E lab and lab quizzes range from 10-65 questions, the lecture quizzes are all 100 questions, lecture exam is 100 plus 5 bonus points, and the lab exam is 50 questions plus 1 bonus point. hes a cool person tho.
Has detailed knowledge on these courses.
