Dr. Sadri is a somewhat good instructor. Her mood can be very dry most of the time. She seems to scare some students away from taking A&P and she treats certain ones like children. She yelled at my class one day in the lab for touching the bones, when we were trying to study for the midterm.Her attitude is horrible at times.

Dr. Sadri is a difficult prof to take. Her grading tends to be on the low side & unfair at times. So many students have dropped her class. The majority of the class is failing and this doesn't seem to bother her enough to figure out a way to clarify the material. Although, surprisingly helpful 1 on 1. Overall I wouldn't recommend taking her class.

The tests are very specific and you cannot know just the broad information, so the studying for 3 hours a day minimum is no joke.

She is not going to hold your hand through everything. Instead, she makes you think and talk through the answer,which helps to better understand the material.

Dr sadri is a good instructor in the sense that she will let you know upfront what's expected. She tends to prefer certain group of individuals though(very smart ones).

I see a lot of criticism about Dr. Sadri, but she was a great instructor. There is simply too much material for her to cover during the lecture, so she HAS to go fast. She will focus on the material that students tend to have a harder time understanding. The test are hard but know, the test comes from a 3rd party, not Dr. Sadri. I'd take her agai

I had Dr. Sadri over the summer session as my online Lab instructor. She was such a great professor, extremely knowledgeable, and inspiring. She pushes you to succeed. Always ensuring we understood the material and willing to anything to help us. Online lab did hold its challenges but she made it such a great experience. Would take her again!

Helpful during office hours but her explanations were not the greatest. I didn't pay attention to the lectures (I maybe should have) and taught myself from the course workbook.

It is a very hard class, but professor Sadri wants all of her students to succeed. If you work hard you can get an A. She is always available to answer questions any time you ask. Great professor!

I took AP1 Lab(online) with Dr. Sadri and I am so glad that she was my professor. she is very knowledgeable and her explanation is very clear as well. I think her rate on this website is def. underrated. I would love to take her class again in the future.

She's the head of the A&P department. She's very rude. Literally cared more about not having to create new test bank questions that they made it so difficult to learn by limiting our resources as students. Used Covid as an excuse to be lazy. Many students leaving GTC after this semester because of this department.

Not sure why Dr. Sadri has bad reviews. She is very caring & spends extra time when her lab is done reviewing for the midterm and finals. She went above and beyond making sure we did well. Quick to answer emails, and provided lots of feedback. This is NOT an easy class, so you must put in the work, but her classes were helpful just as she was.

I would not take Professor Sadri class, her voice is so monotone so its hard to want to actually listen and learn. The course is already hard as it is and she was one of those unhelpful professors. One thing I will say is that she graded the exams in a timely manner. One that I wish she would do that wouldve been helpful is create a study guide.

As I was very hesitant about my opinion of Sadri at the beginning of the semester, after the first couple of weeks I really started to enjoy her class. She is very clear on her expectations of her students and follows through.

She was nice on the first day but after that she came to be very rude. When students would try to talk to her after class she was always short and aggravated. Never gave good helpful tips when studying other than saying not to do anything all day and just put your face in the book. About more than half of the students in the class dropped her class

I think as long as you show up to class and already went through the lecture materials, you'll be fine during her class lecture. I feel comfortable asking questions and she welcomes them. She also does Kahoot games and practice tests - very helpful. She is approachable and knowledgeable. I really like her class and her, as a person - respectfully.

Dr. Sadri is an exceptional instructor. She has a direct manner that may be off-putting to some, but I appreciate this quality. Clear expectations from Day 1 (LOTS of studying prior to class, attendance, filling out lecture notes) & she's consistent. Promptly grades exams and posts scores. Gives good feedback for lab drawings & after tests.

Lacks care about her students. Flies through information, refuses to slow down when class isn't understanding. Refuses to make study guides, record lectures. I have fears for my success in my favorite subject. Doesn't teach but yells the material at you. Might as well plan on full self-study if taking her class. I regret taking her class. 0/10

Is very straight forward in lectures. Very lenient in grading. If she feels like you got the concept but didn't get the Q 100% right she still gives you credit for your A. She emails & posts prerecorded videos, practice tests, and study guides. Participation MATTERS if you want to pass! A&P is a difficult class is as is. I would take again!

I wish I could take Sadri for A&P 2. You can obviously tell she cares about you getting a good grade. She shares her PowerPoints ahead of the lecture. She gives out study guides. She also holds review sessions via zoom before the tests. It says the text book is required but really it's just a reference. SADRI IS AMAZING.

If you do not need to learn during class and are better at learning independently, then this class is for you. During the lecture, the professor will only read the PowerPoint and touch on a few key points here and there that are on the test. Other than that she was just white noise in the background while I reread all of my notes.

Every time I came to her with a question either in lab or lecture, I was told either to "google it" or in an almost condescending tone "I don't know, what did your lecture notes say?" She rushes through PowerPoints during lectures in a very monotone voice, but she does grade tests very fast and posts the grade you got usually within a day

Dr Sadri was a great Bio Lab professor. She explained every experiment prior to us physically doing it & was there to help if we didn't understand something. In class & out you know she fully understands what she is teaching and is a great conversationalist. I enjoyed her lab and would take another class with her!

This professor: tough and extremely straightforward. She teaches to raise you from novice to prepared for the medical field. Have to understand the physiology very well to pass this class at GTC. This course geared toward nursing students. She's head of the A&PI. Can't do better than her for A&PI if you want to have a successful nursing course.

Dr. Sadri is great! took her for A&P 2 lab. Although it was a minimester, all her quizzes were on the study guide for the midterm or final. You will need to study your butt off to pass the quizzes. She did give extra credit and was super nice. You will pass if you study all the material; by the time you know it, you'll be done! (:
