He is an excellent professor. He gives good notes via Powerpoint, and explains the material well. He stays focused on the topic and has a calm soothing demeanor. His tests are hard and tricky, but you just have to study both his notes and text to pass. You will not breeze through this class, but if you study hard, you can get an A.

Ok, take him if you want to. But be prepared to study on your own. She does not like to answer much questions. The good thing about him is that he gives you an power point presentation note for the semester. However, the first couple quizzes are mostly from notes and the rest it is all mixed up! so, you gotta study the book + his notes! good luck!

Fantastic prof! Ive taken this class w/ other profs & he is the one that explains difficult material the clearest! Be prepared to study since this is a difficult class!!!!! Hes very kind & wants everyone to succeed but you have to be willing to do the work. No EZ pass here!

Skip class? You won't pass.

Prof. V knows the subject well. His speech is very clear. However very monotonous, he won't crack the joke. Hard to stay awake during his lecture. His quizzes are really, really hard. They are unnecessary hard, like a professional level, not a student level. The Final is a department exam and is hard too. Prof. will give you feedback if asked.

Lots of homework

I have taken his class during fall. He said that the quiz and test are straightforward but yet difficult. He doesn't care about his students at all. If you try ask him a question he will be like check the syllabus. I would never take his class ever again.

OMG, this prof is awesome!!! Took 203 w/ 2 different profs & this one is da best! Very on point, clear lectures & explanations of difficult topics. People that are lazy def will not do well w/ him. Likes to challenge his students to bring out the best in you. A&P is just darn difficult so you have to put in the work!!!! Put your best foot forward!!

Professor Rojanavongse was great. The course itself is very difficult and requires constant self study. Exams are hard and the way he words the questions can trip you up, so be careful. Overall a somewhat stressful experience but not at all the professor's fault. If your GPA really matters to you maybe try another professor! And study ALL THE TIME.

Don't know why people are complaining?? Prof V explains everything clearly. Always answers questions although he will challenge you to find the answer yourself. He teaches you how to teach yourself & doesn't spoon feed. Pretty laid back & chill too. Great prof!

I feel like hes been teaching for so long he kind of lost his love for it and has become this annoying task? i appreciate his knowledge and he clearly knows a lot about anatomy but he also skips over a lot of topics that are discussed in the book and expect the students to know what hes talking about. his ppts dont say much and are confusing.

Hes straight to the point a lot of people struggle with him but I think anatomy 203 is just a tough course in itself. If you voice out something he will consider it. The lectures are a little boring but overall he is a fair professor. The tests are difficult but practicing questions helped me out a lot.

He speaks very low. Doesn't give you much to work with as far as understanding the material or using the equipment in lab

Prof. Vidhya is soft spoken, but you can ask him after for clarity. He is also really nice and caring. (This is at Hunter College, BIOL120 lab).

Gives good feedback

Do not take him. He does not listen to the students, he wants word from word answers from the book. AVOID HIM for hunter anatomy
