She is so Hard because she prapers good students, some one who wants to be a doctor or a nurse, must take her, her classes and cours preparation will help alot later. Ask biology student in OCC and will tell you what a great teacher she is!!!

Everyone knows what an excellent teacher is Mis. Anderson. Hard, yet, she will make sure you will do it. I did not need to buy the book, Her free handouts what I needed. I learneda lot and did great in her class becasue of her. A+++

Excellent teacher! Take at your own risk. Abnormal amount of material is given. Take only if you don't have any other classes but hers!

If you take her dont take any other science classes or calculus classes she'll give you enough material to keep you studying day and night she wants you to know everything like your in medical school by time you get to medical school you wont remember any of this. Take at own risk.

Extremely hard...very clear...dont take her class if you have other classes on schedule. The time and studing needed for class is very demanding. Quizzes are like exams and exams are like finals! You get either an exam a week or a quiz a week so hurry up and take your pick!!

extremely clear teaching strategy, very helpful if the student wants to know and learn more, and easy "A", if u are a hardworker. If the person goes to college just for fun, or he/she is going because everybody else is going, then do not take her, take BILL AVERGERIN, OR MARGARET CARNEY, OR RUTH WIL

One of the best teachers I've ever had..very smart and thorough

Ms. Anderson is a great teacher, she is really nice, polite and has a quirky sense of humor. But she is by far the hardest teacher I have ever had. There is a ton of material you will have to learn and understand for each test. And each test gets harder and harder. But she helps you learn everything

Prof Anderson is a true educator. She covers the topics of anatomy/physiology in great depth and breadth. The course is extremely demanding but what you learn id well beyond the usual. It's tough and many drop out but those who remain can say they attended "mini-medical school".

Susan Anderson stands out as one of the best professors I've had in my entire college career. Her classes are extremely demanding but if one is willing to put the time in, the payoff is huge. Truly a born teacher, she is always willing to help her students in any way she can. Cant say enough good things about her...excellent!

I can't say enough great things about Sue Anderson: If you REALLY want to learn anatomy and are willing to work hard, she is the BEST teacher you will find.

I have a lot of respect for her because she really knows her stuff. Even though I failed 132, I can honestly say I learned a lot. I retook BIO 132 with another professor and aced it. She is by far one of the best teachers I ever had. If you are willing to study 3 hrs a day for her class alone and attend her "out of class" sessions, take her class

WOW! she is great juss done wid her classes bio 131 and i feel like i am a doctor, she is a great teacher, a teacher who makes student work hard , even though her tests are hard and we covered everything lots of things to study for each test but u feel gr8 if u study and clean up ur head ... wow a gr8 experie with lord of teachers the SUE ANDERSON.

She is an excelent teacher, she really knows what she teachs, her tests are very long and you have to study a lot. But I recommend her class to anybody that really want to learn anatomy.

The best A&P teacher I had. Btw a note to those students who do not do well in her class. A&P is 110% memorization. If you don't put the time into the class, then you will not pass!

She is an awesome teacher!..you really need to put a lot time/effort into this class

She is good teacher.I love her. :)

Very good, very hard

She is gooooood teacher. :)

She is the best teacher I ever had in my entire educational career. She is dedicated, passionate,hard working,patient,very helpful,and sweet. If you have the time, go to her review sessions because she only wants you to succeed. I took both BIO 131 & 132 at the same time and still got an A in both classes. I learned a lot and had fun learning too.

she is the best teacher i have ever had. she is very hardworking and will expect the same from the student. she is so nice and kind too.

she a great teacher. the best you can ever have.

she is the best teacher. almost all parise her devotion and motivation she puts on her students. She gives the best. you don't have the text book even, she is so helpful. I changed my major from arts to medicine because of her motivation. I still remeber her notes and her classes and has been helping me in every day of my classes.

well, i dont recommned her for a biology teacher, she is too much for college students, i took her class and i made a big mistake that i did not drop it, so i ended with an F in her class. DO NOT TAKE HER, UNLESS U WANNA STUDY 24/7 FOR HER CLASS.

Damn!! she was my best teacher ever.. for dedicated students she is just perfect. I learned alot from her and its very helpful.. Now im taking other science courses like easy A coz i can still recall some of the stuff that she taught us. She's very detailed, very clear, & very smart. Now im motivated to learn and to study bcoz of her! 2 thumbs up!

She is a very smart teacher but be prepared to studying everyday nonstop. I don't recommend her if you have a job or a life. If you can be dedicated to this class, she's great. Lots of tests, some times back to back exams and no multiple choice ever!

She is the best teacher i havent seen in my entire educational. She always thinks in students side and try to explain until stuents understand. very kind,smart always. The review session is very good, too. Sometimes, I am very sorry to her spending her free time to us for reviewing.she is very good teacher.I am lucky to take SUSAN ANDERSON class!

She is the best teacher i ever had. She is always for students who needs help and always try to explain until stuents understand. very kind,smart always. Alway attend the review session b/c they are very helpful. she is very good teacher.I am lucky that i took her for fall 06 semester. she is THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The best Prof. for A&P. and you DON'T need to study 24/7.She is detailed and gives you alot of info. but its good to take her ONLYif you can attend her review sessions.She does the hard work for you. She repeats stuff so many times, its hard to get anything lower than an A.schedule evrythg around her sessions&you'll learn alot. u won't regret it!

Great teacher. Hard but always willing to help. Does many things to make sure students get A's on her quizes and exams. Take her if you want to learn something, and you won't regret it.

OK PEOPLE..PAY ATTENTION CUZ I DONT WANT Y'ALL TO FAIL NOW AIGHT??OK NOW LETS GET TO THE POINT.SHE IS NOT EASY AT ALL. IF U GO TO HER REVIEWS, IT HELPS BUT U STILL HAVE TO DO A LOT STUDYING ON UR OWN. HER TESTS ARE HARD AND ARE NEVER MULTIPLE CHOICE.SHES VERY DETAILED.SHE DOESNT GIVE PROJECTS OR EXTRA CREDIT.BUT SHES REALLY KIND :)G.LUCK. MUHAHAHAH

shes a sweetheart but her class is really difficult! shes very detailed..veryyyyy detailed compared to the other professors..

I took Sue last year and worked my butt off in her class for an A. She was an extremly helpful teacher, and even met with students on a Sunday to help them study. I am taking a different professor now that does not come close to comparison. She is difficult but wants you to do well. If you put the work into her class you can do well.

she is smart, but her class is extremely ridiculously hard. all her tests r short answer. she NEVER hands out any extra credit. she teaches you extra info that other teachers dont. if u want 2 pass u gotta take her class alone bc u need 2 dedicate all ur time 2 studyin n memorizing a little day by day. good luck ull need it!

she is simply AMAZING! very detailed and organized..she gives study guides with all the q's on the exams. she color codes everything:] she is super helpful and will meet before, after and on weekends with students. there will be times when ull feel overwhelmed but if you stick with it you will not regret it. she is THE BEST!!

Susan was the best teacher for a difficult class of A+P. She really knows her stuff. I have heard from other A+P teachers that she helps them out with things. You will need to only take her class and nothing else for the 16 weeks.I gave her a HOT because she must have extreme arm muscles from writing and drawing on the board!!

Excellent teacher with endless amounts of information. If you want to succeed in her class you have to attend and study nightly but her tests are directly from her notes and her study guides. I recommend her if you are going into the medical field. Lots of work but worth it. She is extremely accomodating and truely wants her students to succeed.

I love her class!!I love bio and although her class level is hard, if you have a passion about bio and want to learn specifically, this is a class for you. I wouldnt reccomend her to lazy people who just want to get credit and get it over with. You have to work very hard. But I think it worth it. I'm having fun in her class. She is a great teacher!

she is a great teacher but she gives too much information that other classes doesn't..her class is too hard!! but her teaching style is awesome. if you have time and you are only taking this class you can go for it. but if you are not, you won't have time to study for other class because of this class. i dropped it out b/c it was too much.

she is wonderful. if u have time to work with her u can easily score A grade. She is my inspiration .

Her enthusiasm for her topic is sparkling. Her efforts on behalf of her students is amazing! The amount of material and time needed to succeed is enormous. If you have the time, take her class. I am so glad I did.

she's amazingly gifted..

It's simple. If you have the time you can get an A. It's all memorization. She puts in extra hours to help students review. Lots of material but you know what will be on exams. Check out Zenchak as well. She seems dec!

Her class is awesome and the teaching style is amazing but the amount of information that she gives is just too much!!!Had to drop it out b/c it was too hard and I couldn't handle it..If you have time and u r taking only one or two classes go for it...but for else, u will not have time to study for other classes...

This class is all about the many multi-color handouts...and she loves her handouts...study them religiously. Tough material, but she's such a mom...she'll do whatever to help you get that A. Does occastionally mispronounce words, I think due to a small speech impediment I gave her a hot cuz of her Farrah Fawcett hair lol

Awesome teacher, hard class. Must memorize a lot but she tells you exactly what you are going to be tested on. Her review sessions are a must, if you can't attend them drop the class and retake when you can. No animal dissection, which was very important to me, as a vegetarian and animal lover. Hard class, no multiple choice but great teacher.

Not an easy class, but she definitely knows what shes teaching. She answers questions, & makes sure you understand. Her reviews are very helpful & her handouts are all important. No need for the text. Overall a brilliant teacher.

The best A&P teacher. Attendance not mandatory but if you don't go you might as well drop. Highly organized, everything from handouts, notes and lecture. Accommodates extra time for students, explains everything. Memorization in 131 is a must, but she makes it EASY to associate everything she goes over. Wish I didn't buy the book, I didn't need it.

She is a wonderful teacher! She goes out of her way to help each student that wants to be helped! She is really organized. Her teaching style is very effective! You always know what she expects from you on a test or quiz.Her handouts are AWESOME!

Great teacher! The people that gave her bad reviews are just lazy. She does anything for her students to pass. Her review sessions are amazing so go! She's not easy but she directly tells you what will be on the test. The only thing is that her test have a lot of information.Good luck!

she is the best A/P teacher u can find at Oakton :) no need for text book thou. she gives out handouts that have EVERYTHING that u need to know. Work hard and u will survive and be successful.

no matter who you take for anatomy, anatomy is a tough class. anderson is the best teacher their is. she has review sessions for ALL the exams and tells you just what is on the test. she tells you everything. just make sure to only take this class and not another hard class. its VERY time consuming!!! no homework. great teacher!!

Awesome teacher!

Good teacher but, tries to teach too much material. you feel like you already went to medical school after you have taken her. If you are only taking her class take her. If you are taking other science classes take Ruth Williams she teaches like Andersen but doesn't try to teach you the all of medical school in one semester.

She is an amazing teacher

she is awesome awesome awesome.... i love her. very helpful and an amazing teacher.if you should take anatomy TAKE WITH HER. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Susan Anderson is the best professor I have ever taken in college. She is wonderful! Anderson should be nominated #1 Biology professor at Oakton. Deffinetly recommend her she wont let you down.

I have never worried that much about my test because it would be a shame if after all she teaches U, all the handouts she gives U fail. Go to her reviews that helps A LOT. If not her reviews I wouldn't probably get a "C". I'm ending up with 85 and still wasn't studying enough, just before the test usually) TAke her class, U will have fun...

Let's get real here! Prof. Anderson is a wonderful lady who truly cares about her students and the material she teaches. She is very kind. A&P is very tough..HOWEVER her class is crazy intense. Your in class officially for four days, but you absolutely need to attend her outside review sessions (sometimes 2-3 per week) if you want to succeed.

If you're thinking about skating through Anatomy and Physiology, you better start looking for a new major. Susan makes A & P tolerable. Yes, you feel like you are in Medical School, but you are learning EVERYTHING. Take her is you are pre-med, nuclear medicine, phys/occup therapy or HIT.

I don't agree with the last post re: "looking for a new major." Do not be dissuaded from A&P, just beware if you decide to take Anderson. She is a lovely lady but her class is VERY involved and you absolutely need to have extra time to devote to weekly, numerous OUTSIDE review sessions. Do not turn away from A&P, just wisely choose your prof.

Prof. Anderson is by far the best professor I have ever had. She makes you work hard, and in the end it's all worth the studying. She knows every detail of anatomy, and makes sure you do as well. Downside is that she holds many USEFUL study sessions, but they are pertinent in your understand of A&P. If you have a job like I do, this may be an issue

AWESOME teacher!The best teacher ever can be.She's too helpful and wants you to do well.The only people who fail are the lazy ones.She literally gives you everything on her test.The only thing you have to do is study them.Highly recommended!

You got to love her.She is beyond helpful,cares about students,motivating,selfless,wants you to get an 'A',a true mother but her tests are so long.I l

This is a class for people who are taking one class and have minimal responsibilities.you have to be in class 30 to 45 minutes before officiall class starts for reviews.class starts at 8am but be ready to get there at 7:10am.She is helpful and down to earth and very approachable.

She is great teacher and very helpful.She wants you to know a lot, but if your major related to medicine, she is the best to take,everything you will learn in her class will help you in future. Yes,there is a lot of studing,and you need to find time to attend her review section, which helps a lot.She repeating things you need to know for exams.

Great Teacher! Her curriculum is that of Northwestern's Med School so be prepared to study...A LOT. If you want to get a good grade in this class I suggest you only take this class. Her review sessions are pretty much every morning before class..GO! Too much info personally we don't need to know EVERYTHING were not gonna be Dr.'s but great teacher

Most helpful teacher ever. Her class may not be the easiest, but she will work with you to get the grade you want. ATTEND HER STUDY SESSIONS. This is where you get the most help. Yes, she will tell you to study more than necessary, but that extra bit of information is always good to know for future reference. Fully recommend her.

She is one of the best teachers I've ever had in my history of learning. She devotes all her time and effort into her classes and always tries to help you in any way. If you want an easy A then take someone else. But if you actually want to learn something, I HIGHLY recommend her. If you work hard, you'll get the grade you deserve.

My favorite professor @ OCC! The class (A&P 1 and 2)itself were very hard. But she makes it very easy for me to understand. I don't remember using our textbook because every thing you need to know is in the lecture/handouts. Extremely smart, organize and well educated. She is the best professor in Anatomy & Physiology!

One of the best teachers I've ever had. While in no way an easy class, you can't expect to walk into it expecting it to be a cake walk anyways. I do recommend to attend the reviews that she has whenever you can because they are especially helpful for the exams and practicals. If you work hard and devote your time to it, you'll do fine.

One of the best professors that I had so far!No need of textbook,Professor Anderson is a walking textbook.She will help you understand better the material.Review sessions help a lot.She wants us to know a lot of stuff but it's worth it.This is not a slack off class,you need to study hard.TAKE HER if you have a chance,you will learn a lot.

I took anatomy with her and i admit that this class is not easy but professor Anderson teaching style makes it easier. She does give out a lot of packets and papers to study of. She has many review sessions that REALLY help. She does want you to succeed in her course so she will answer all your questions.

Professor Anderson is thorough, clear, dedicated, and funny. She is very good at helping you master the material meaningfully without relying on easily forgotten mnemonics. Her course is not easy, but it is well worth the effort. I have taken classes at top-tier universities and her teaching ability ranks among the best professors I have ever had.

Prof. Anderson is by far the best college professor I've ever had. I'm not talking about being "cool" or "chill" but rather being very informative and helpful to her students. The thing I love about her is that she actually cares that we do well in her class, even though her content is very challenging!

If you choose to skip class & take A&P lightly, then this is not for you! Anderson is one of the BEST professors out there! She uses a variety of teaching methods to help her students understand the material. She has a ton of review sessions (even weekends)to help everyone out. Study hard, take good notes,go to review sesh, & you'll get that A!

One of the best professors I've had. Must attend class because the material isn't easy at all. Very clear with her material and is willing to go out of her way with review sessions to make sure everyone knows everything. This is not a class to take lightly, study hard and you will get an easy A :)

LIke many have said, A&P is a tough subject no matter what. While Professor Anderson's class is extremely challenging, she is so helpful with outside review sessions. If you work hard, she will notice. While she is not the "easiest" A&P professor, I highly recommend taking her course over other A&P professors' courses. Very nice lady.

Prf Anderson is amazing. She's a walking BIO book. She is extremely helpful no doubt about it. Although review sessions are optional ..if you want to pass I suggest you attend. A&P is NOT an easy subject but P. Anderson will help you understand if you do your part in studying :) She's such a sweetheart you will adore her!

Professor Anderson goes out of her way to ensure her student's success. She is very clear and goes over difficult topics more slowly for a better understanding. She provides many handouts that break down challenging concepts from the textbook. Review sessions are held frequently and I highly encourage going to them. One of my favorite classes!

This class prove to be the most difficult class I have taken. Do not take this class if you want to have no life and just study 24/7. Although she is very clear and helpful, the material she expects you to memorize is far more than other teachers. If you want to be a doctor then she will be good for you. But for something else, take a diff. Prof.

She is an incredibly intelligent woman and lives to see her students succeed. She goes out of her way to make sure her students are ready for her tests. You will be over prepared for whatever type of medical field you go into. Tests are really hard and you have to have the time to commit to the class. Do not need a textbook but it is helpful

She's a very nice teacher. Her top priority is for you to understand and learn the subject. She gives review session but it depends on you if you want to go but I suggest going because it'll help you a lot especially her tests are usually identification. NO multiple choice.

By far the hardest class I've ever taken. The amount of information she expects you to learn is unreal, and she goes very far in detail. Tests are all critical thinking, and short answers. No extra credit, or multiple choice at all. She is extremely helpful though and has review sessions multiple times a week!! Attend them or you will probably fail

I love her! In this class you have 4 test, 4 practicals, 8 quizzes 2 lowest quizzes get dropped. She teaches you like your going to Med school, but honestly she goes out of her way to make sure you know material. She has reviews that help a lot. You have to study ALOT but it's Anatomy its not suppose to be easy. Possible to get an A but work for it

Very helpful, has ALOT of study sessions, you can tell she loves to teach and help her students succeed. Anatomy itself is a hard subject so expect a lot of studying and hard material

I love Professor Anderson! In her class you have 4 test, 4 practicals, 8 quizzes 2 lowest quizzes get dropped. The class is very hard and there is a lot of information that you need to memorize , but her review sessions few times a week will help you A LOT! You will probably fail the class if you don't attend them. I definitely recommend her!!!

Alright, I'm going to be very real with this rating. Professor Anderson is the sweetest, most caring and enthusiastic teacher you will EVER have. The material she teaches is not difficult but it does require A LOT of memorization and time. You don't need a text book at all, all you need is lots of time to study. Holds review sessions twice a week!

Professor Anderson is one of the best teachers I have had. She gives very detail lectures with pictures and a lot of colors for easy memorization. Anatomy itself is not hard so you will have to spend a lot of time with this course. She holds a lot of review sessions so it is almost impossible to do bad on the quizzes and tests. Would take again

Took this class in summer and there was a bit of hw. The good thing is she adjusts the test grades, which helped my grade a lot. Just do the hw and pass the exams and you'll be fine.

I adore Anderson. Just finished her class this semester. She hands a lot of papers & those papers are literally what you need to pass the class. Her study guides for the test are basically what you expect for the actual test. She always has reviews so definitely go to them. It is very helpful. She is a very smart woman. She may go over lecture time

Give this woman an award. She goes above and beyond to make sure you succeed.

Hands down the most thoughtful, caring, and helpful professor you will ever have. She will kill a small tree worth of papers for you to succeed all while making you realize just how capable you are at retaining amounts of information you never thought possible. Seriously, give this woman an award.

Anderson is amazing. If youre trying to be a nurse or anything in the medical field shes the professor you want to take. She holds review sessions, and basically tells you whats going to be on the quizzes and exams. If youre not prepared to study hardcore shes not the one for you. Defintly trust me and take her, you wont regret it at all.

A&P is hard on its own if you aren't ready to study, don't take any A&P classes. Anderson gives a schedule for tests at the beginning of the year and gives several handouts with pictures during class. She also gives several reviews to tests. You can audio record lectures and reviews. She is the best, take her.

Professor Anderson is the best teacher i have ever seen. She works so hard to make her students succeed. She does many review sessions during the week so make sure you attend them. She is the nicest and caring person. can't wait to take A&P II with her next semester.

A&P 1 was not easy at all. Be ready to read a lot everyday because she gives a lot of hand outs that you'll ned for both lectures and tests. Her class is difficult but it is manageble if you put time and effort. Her review sessions helps a lot especially on lab exams. She teaches her students with passion & helps you to succeed. I love Ms.A.

Those who said she is not good, they are just very lazy to study. It is already given that A&P is a very hard subject. But this professor explains it so well that she goes down into a student level of thinking. If you have spare time, don't spend it on stupid things, GO TO HER LECTURE!! I can't emphasize it more. TAKE HER! TAKE HER! TAKE HER!!!!!!!

Professor Anderson is my favorite teacher at Oakton! I have taken her with BIO 231 and 232. The material is tough but she has all the handouts and review sessions to help everyone succeed as long as they put in the effort. Very passionate and caring to her students. Take her!!!

I don't know how can anyone give bad feedbacks about professor Anderson. She goes beyond amazing. I have never seen a teacher cares so much about students like Anderson. I am not saying that A&P are easy classes, but I am sure that no one can find a better teacher than her. Take her, take her

Best Professor ever, you will learn so much from her. Im so glad I took her! Highly recommend her

genius teacher

Anderson is an amazing teacher! She holds a lot of review sessions that will make it possible to obtain an A in the course. Make sure you go to all of them and you will be fine! She is so caring and really wants you to succeed. Material is hard, but review sessions make it 100% easier

She is an excellent teacher. Professor Anderson always are able to help her students in her sessions reviews. However, you have to be more than ready for her exams because those have a lot of details. The grade of this course only depend in exams and quizzes, so be ready for that.

Anderson's class is very difficult but she is very good at explaining things and offers a lot of help outside of class. Your grade will be determined on the amount of time you spend studying.

Prof. Anderson is a sweet and caring person. The downside is that I felt the material was rushed. I attended her review sessions and felt like she was teaching new material. Your grades only consists of exam and quizzes. Exams and quizzes are fill In the blank and essay which require great detail for full points. Overall I would take someone else.

Prof Anderson is by far the best at what she does! This was the most difficult class I have ever taken but it really made me think! Grade is purely based on Tests and Quizzes. Tests are HARD! You really have to learn and repeat, repeat, repeat the material. BUT if we want a career in Health Sciences we SHOULD be studying like this! Take her!:)

Prof Anderson does everything for her students to succeed. The lectures are heavy but super interesting. Explains things I could never understand before in a way that is clear. You have to work really hard but it is not impossible to do well. She has so many review sessions, GO TO THEM! Gives a lot of super useful handouts Awesome, kind, teacher

Attending the class is important. Excellent professor.
