I had Dr. Cravo for Anatomy & Physiology I and I highly recommend her. She is by far one of the best professors I have ever had. I looked forward to every class and it was because of her! She has an amazing attitude and she genuinely cares about her students. She wants you to succeed and she provides you with the tools necessary to be successful!

Dr. Cravo is a great professor. Anatomy and physiology is a difficult course, but Cravo explains everything in such detail that it makes the tougher material more clear-cut. If you ever need any help at all she is always willing to be available at any time. And she's a great person! Take her for A&P!

She is a newer professor that has a great background in the field. However her excitement for the material overpowers her ability to teach the material. She needs to learn how to teach and make the classroom less intimidating and more open for the students to learn instead of moving along with excitement. Good? Good? Good? Everyone Good? Good!!

Dr. Cravo is a great person to be around but her teaching skill lack. The transfer of knowledge from the teacher to the student is why I go to school. Anyone can read powerpoints.

I expected the course to be challenging and hard but this prof takes off for spelling when a lot of her power points are misspelled.

She'll drop 2 quizzes and give an EC opportunity to add another quiz grade. Practicals are hard only because the labels on the models are worn off (but that's not her fault)

Dr. Cravo is an amazing professor. She was my very first lecture professor and she made the experience wonderful. Anatomy and physiology is not an easy course, but Cravo made the material comprehensive and understandable. She is a fair grader and gives great feedback. She also gives great advice regarding study habits and course selection.

Dr. Cravo is a great professor to learn from and she had a clear schedule of when assignments, tests, and quizzes were due. She is always willing to answer questions and clarify if you have any confusion on a topic. Her quizzes and tests usually have extra credit. Studying and going to class will better your chances of obtaining a good grade.

TAKE HER CLASS!! AP is not an easy course at all. Dr Cravo is absolutely wonderful though. Work hard, and it'll fly by. She makes the class so much easier and you'll find if you take her lab too, it goes so much smoother. She warns you in the beginning about the workload, and she offers study plans. Go to her office hours too, they help!!

3 lab practicals require full memorization. There are 4 lecture exams, with Lec #1 being the easiest Lec #2 & #3 are the most challenging if you don't study enough, Lec #4 covers just 2 chapters. She's a very tough grader for LECTURE homework & LAB REPORTS. Study hard, and you'll pass :) I recommend her 100%

Dr. Cravo is HANDS DOWN the best professor I've had at Collin. If you are a visual learner, her teaching style will work really well for you. Plus, she cares a ton about her students and helping them to succeed. She is 100% reasonable with grading, tests, and assignments, and will answer any questions you may have.

I had Dr. Cravo for both A&P 1/A&P 2. She was great. The course content is hard, but she teaches really well. She expects you to listen in class, study on your own, and actually learn---not just get by. She knows most students are future healthcare workers, so she treats the class that way. She is definitely the best A&P teacher at Collin College.

Dr. Cravo is a very talented and caring professor. This is a hard class, but she is great at explaining and reviewing confusing material. There are 3 practicals and two papers, along with weekly quizzes. There is extra credit on both the quizzes and the tests which helps. I would totally recommend Dr. Cravo to anyone taking A&P for the first time!!

Dr. Cravo is very sweet and very knowledgeable. A&P is a hard class, but she's genuinely a nice person who wants you to succeed. She's very open during office hours, but you need to study hard. As someone who has taken a lot of the A&P professors, she's one of the best. I found her tests hard personally, but a lot of others did not and made As.

A&P 1 was my first college course in eight years and first science course in ten! I enjoyed her class so much and would take her for 2402 if I could. It's not an easy class by any means, but I am so glad I took it with Dr. Cravo. Show up, study, and she literally provides all the other resources for you to succeed.

She was an AMAZING professor. She made the very complicated class easy to understand. She also made connections which made it easier to remember a lot of the names. This class is a lot of memorization so it's really helpful to have connections to remember the names. If you're taking A&P1 I definitely recommend for sure!

She is a good professor for both Lecture and Lab. I took her for AP1 and she provided an extra credit assignment, she provides so many resources to study (that you don't even know where to start), and she is always available during her office hours. Do take her or Brown because they are good at teaching and can be funny in class. Also, study a lot.

She's an awful professor! Her lab quizzes and practicals are the hardest. Lecture is okay but she's not helpful at all. She doesn't give breaks and her lectures are so boring. If you take her be prepared to teach yourself. She doesn't even round your grade even if you are so close. It's a very difficult class and she teaches very fast.

Extremely mean professor. Lecture tests are 75% of your grade. If you fail one it will ending up hurting your grade. Doesn't offer any extra credit. Her labs are extremely hard.

Had her for AP1 during Fall 2024. She is straight to the point, and she will answer any questions you have during office hours and in class. Utilize Ballard's sites for lab, and make sure to read/skim over the slides and textbook before class so you can ask anything you are unsure of. She offers 1-2 extra credit assignments, so make sure to do it.

Had her for both AP1 and AP2. She offers extra credits, drops 2 quizzes and a test for lecture, and drops two quizzes for lab. Read/skim over the textbook and slides before class so you have an idea of what's going to be covered. She is always willing to answer your questions, no matter how stupid it is. She is straight to the point and is fun.

Dr.Cravo is the best A&P professor EVER. Take her for lecture!! Her criteria is concise, she grades quickly, and most importantly, her lectures make very difficult topics so understandable. She's also very kind, and you can tell she really tries to cultivate a relationship with her students. BUT, sign up fast for her as her class fills quickly.

It has been a pleasure being one of Dr.Cravo's students. I appreciate how she thoroughly explains concepts and repeats herself to help us better understand the topic. Whenever I ask a question, she goes above and beyond, providing detailed answers to ensure every part of my question is answered.

Dr. Cravo is an amazing professor! Her lectures and very clear and straightforward, which made knowing what to study for the tests a lot easier. You can tell she genuinely cares about her students and is very open to feedback. This is a difficult class, but Dr. Cravo made it very feasible to get a good grade. I look forward to taking 2402 with her!
