LOVED him. I'd rather study his body than the cadavers' though. Hard to concentrate on anything but that Kevin Costner behind.

Comment:

there aren't many professors who know and understand anatomy like he does. if you are nervous about these classes, take him. he is laid back, never makes you feel stupid and always clarifies any confusion. it's not an easy class, but it's rewarding.

Wonderful prof.! He is very understanding, knows his stuff. No matter who you have the class is time consuming. You have to study to do well. If you make the effort he helps you as much as he can. Two thumbs up.

He is a good prof for the class. I also enjoyed studying his muscles, which are better than the cadavers...study hard though, it is a tough class.

Yey for cadaver lab! Merbs was a great prof! i'm not sure whats going on with the pants being belted down so tightly.But the guy knows his stuff, and treats students with respect. Honestly, he makes working with dead people not to scary. =)

What can I say other than slacker. He does not even seem to enjoy the class, but he is leaving next semester. If he were staying he would be a great prof to take for 309

All the anatomy profs are the same, it doesn't matter who you take. Although, Merbs is one of the better ones, at least he gives you partial credit even if you spell things wrong! Take him or you will be sorrrrryyyyy!

Not a good prof for HS 208!! Can tell he doesn't enjoy teaching the class. Was not very helpful...his tests do not fairly represent what you learn in the class.

Comment:

His tests are really hard- he asks questions about the smallest details so you really need to study every little thing. I would recommend going to class every day because he also tests on things not in the study guide

The best part of class is watching his arm muscles while he's writing & working on the cadavers.

Won't cater to idiots like the ones sitting around me. Sit near the front. Pay attention and work ahead and you'll be fine.
