Powerpoints are on canvas and tests are timed. 5 assignments and 5 tests, and a final. Tests are hard and lots of questions. Don't recommend taking him online. Maybe in class would be different.

Straightforward class. The material is kind of boring but has such a fun personality and tells great stories. Tests are based on the notes don't even bother looking at the textbook even if he says to. Overall easy class.

Comment:

Too terrible for words. His notes are antiquated. He prefers to lecture the entire class. Lastly when you ask what topics his exam covers, he will tell you but be sure to study the opposite of what he says.

Took him online and it was the worst decision ever. He posted the notes which were helpful but I didn't like him because he was not helpful as a person. I would email him for help and he either didn't respond back or gave me an attitude like i was bothering him. He also isn't clear on what he wants for his "small assignments"

Great guy and super funny and enthusiastic. You can tell he loves his job. The material is really hard though. He talks to you like you are going to be a future scientist even though most of the class is taking it for the requirement.The tests are really hard and there are only 4 including the final which is what determines your grade.

Awesome professor. You would be a fool not to take him. I have learned a ton from this man, academic and life wise. Very intelligent, and enthusiastic. Awesome stories. Do not stop by his office if you need to be somewhere else. You will be engorged with stories.

Dr A was one of the best profs I had! He's so smart, funny, and has a great personality. I wish I was like him. You'd be a fool not to take him. His tests are only hard if you don't study or go to class, so its not hard if you work. He's always there to help and give you a laugh, not an "easy A" but you can get one easily if you study right!

Comment:

Biology majors: make sure you get the opportunity to learn from Dr. Antonawich. The man has so much prior experience and knowledge. Having done with research for him and even taken several of his classes, I highly suggest him. He isn't the easiest professor but you can learn a lot from him. He makes class hilarious with his jokes. A+ professor

Comment:

Dr. A. is a very funny man. He keeps the class interested and is a very nice guy. The class is not easy though because his tests are hard, the good news is he curves them, which really helped me out. He also drops the lowest grade, which is also a plus. Take him just for entertainment, because he's quite the character.

he is a great teacher. some of the topics were pretty hard, but you have a lot of resources that he gives you to understand them. he is hilarious and makes class fun and interesting. i would def recommend him. of course a bunch of labs and a few tests, but there multiple choice and not too bad if you study.

Comment:

He is an amazing stage-man, that's for sure: his lectures leave you feeling happy that you're a biology major, even enraptured at the thought that someday you can contribute to that oeuvre he seems to embody so well; but behind this glassy charisma, past the shadow this man casts with his degrees and reputation....

Dr. A is the BEST teacher ever. If you love bio and want an enjoyable class, take it with him. I also think he is the smartest person in the world.
