If anyone can teach an 8 week AP class it is her! She's excellent! I'd like to warn nursing students that the 8wk API class (9 hours long) was thorough, but the 8 week APII class was very rushed due to only being a 3 1/2 hour class. This class REALLY needed to be 9 hours long too, but it is NOT Dr. Springs fault.

Dr. Spring is an outstanding professor!!! I went into MCB concerned about the difficulty of the material, but she is incredible at teaching and providing what info you need to know for the tests. Didn't need the textbook, just her workbook from the bookstore. What she tells you to highlight is exactly what will be on the tests.

I've taken Dr. Spring for AP1, AP2, and Micro and received A's in all classes. It's not an easy A, but certainly not a hard A either as long as you study the material (she does guide you on what to study and gives hints on what will be on exams). Some extra credit opportunities and her pneumonic devices really help you remember the material better.

Hands down the BEST professor I have ever had. I took A&P 1 and 2 and micro with Dr. Spring, and received an A in all of them. Her lectures are very interesting, which makes learning these hard subjects so much easier. Her teaching has been so inspirational and made me so happy I've chosen to go into the medical field.

I dont think Ive ever had a professor who cares as much about her students as she does. I took her for A&P 2 after having a terrible experience in A&P 1 and it was literally like night and day. She writes her own material & provides tons of resources. She is responsive, friendly and gives feed back on every single assignment. She is awesome. (:

All of the homework comes from her course guidebook and the test questions are derived from it, as well. She gives great feedback on assignments and tells you what material to study for the (2) exams. Very passionate about A&P and wants you to succeed.

I took Dr. Spring for A&P I, and A&P II. Her guide book is is helpful for knowing what to study for exams Its around $50.00. As far as the Marieb Anatomy and physiology textbook is concerned you can get by with a cheaper older version . I bought the 8th edition from a used book store for 20.00.

I absolutely loved Dr. Spring! She is very knowledgeable in her field, and she liked to add stories and outside info into her lectures. She can have a tendency to go quickly during her lectures. She also requires a lot of studying, and she makes attendance mandatory. Overall, she knows what she's teaching, but she can be hard to follow at times.

You need to be there for her lectures. Online class was a joke. Once we moved online for COVID-19 all tests became unproctored open book, so I feel like I didn't retain the info. In class, if your phone VIBRATES during a test, she will instantly fail your test b/c "you distracted other students". All test questions come from homework.

It was a pleasure to be a student of Dr. Rose. She is highly educated and knows her stuff. She made AP2 a breeze even when I didn't have a strong foundation in AP1. Her guidebook was to the point, while, the textbook was a reference. DO not read the bold prints only & study to understand the concepts. STUDY and complete hw, you will have a blast!

Makes you buy her textbook. It is a guidebook you can write in, but you're not graded on it. No point in doing it. The class is literally all quizzes nothing else. One or two a week. You can use the TB. Most questions come straight from the book. But beware of her trick questions. I emailed her about it and got a rude and unhelpful response.

Requires her book which is $100, it is more of a study guide and the information is poorly presented. She also required Human Anatomy & Physiology by Marieb, this should have been the only book as the information is presented a lot better and easier to follow. I would not recommend her, a lot better professors at FSCJ.

She had us in a chat group for our 3-hour class. You will be required to purchase her book before the class starts. Her callous attitude towards students doesn't make you feel welcomed outside of class which is discouraging. If you reach out to her you will get a rude response. Can be an easy class if you follow the syllabus.

This professor does not work with her students. Every time I've reached out to her she is cold, uncaring, and and unfriendly. Textbook is required and $100, not allowed to buy used, seems like she teaches just to sell books not to actually teach or help her students in any way. Worst professor I've had in 3 years- by a lot!

She's very passionate, but she thinks we should know everything in the books in just one semester. I have an A in her class right now, but I am having anxiety about the 150 question finale exam. Basically we have to know the whole book and be able to label 100 things on pictures/diagrams for the finale. I feel like her review sheets doesn't help.

Dr. Rose has her own Course Guide which was extremely helpful. She does assign work out of the cg which is due weekly. There are 2 labs, 11 chapter quizzes, 3 discussions and a final. The labs were pretty much matching questions. She does not take late work at all! However, she does give you plenty of time to submit assignments. I learned a lot
