Comment:

Mr. Strong was a good professor -- gives you good examples for you to memorize things; however he is a tough test maker. The first exam was horrible because all the wording but all the classed expressed how hard was the wording and he started making it a little bit more easier on the other test. He does not give extra credit, work for your grade.

He is tough but he is a good teacher you just have to study a lot and youll for sure pass. If you need help he you can ask him and he explains it to you. What really helped me understand was watching videos on YouTube on certain topics we had to know for a test. Make time to study and youll see the content is not as hard as it may seem.

prof strong is a good professor, he is caring to his students, but he is not giving extra credit at all, he give some extra bonus in his exams but not all the time, you need to exert a lot of time to study so you will get a good grade, the lab are easy, the lecture exams are critical thinking and he always gives a written essay in class

Comment:

this professor has imagination. i believe the positive feedback that is given is from his own tales. no reviews, no extra credit. watered down lectures; gives an inspirational message almost at every class. if you are reading this its not a coincidence -- you are better off taking this class online than taking it from this guy

We started off with 30 or so students and ended the semester with maybe 9-12? I learned a lot from him, made an A, as well as a 100% on my HESI exam in A/P. He prepared me, made me learn my material and gave me great feed back. If you're not ready to work then do not take his class. He is an awesome teacher but YOU MUST PUT IN THE EFFORT.

He is a great teacher I learned so much, I have 2 jobs this class requires so much reading, but you learn. He will answer any question and give you many examples until you understand the content. He will give a Saturday class as well as come in early and leave late if necessary. Also the class gets easier as it goes just make sure you study!!!!!!

Professor Strong is the best professor I have ever had. Theres not a question that you can ask him and he doesnt know. He made me work hard and it paid off. I was a mother with a full time job and he pushed me all the way to the end. He would come in early or stay late just to help. He really cared about his students and his children inspired me.

He will kick your butt and you will thank him for it. Our class went from 30 students to less than 10 by midterms. Read his powerpoints as he leaves clues as to what he will test on. Listen to his advice and study at least 24 hours a week. Make your own study guides. You have to put in the effort but he will work with you to help you succeed.

Comment:

This man is hilarious,wise,inspiring and tries to use example in everyday life. However,Proff Strong is very disorganized. We ended up using lab time for lecture time often and missed material not included in our books and when it came to exam time,a lot of material was indeed not covered. If you're lost,you'll be directed to THE search engine.

Professor Strong is an awesome teacher. He teaches the science and relates it all to real life. If you stick with him he eases up towards the end of the semester. He is knowledgeable and wise. He is always willing to stay after class to help and even held a study group on a Saturday morning before finals. He's the best! Take him if you can.

Professor Strong wants you to learn the material so he will make you work for your grade. If you take your education seriously and don't expect to have your grade handed to you, take this class. This class taught me how to study for a test without memorizing general information. Truly one of my favorites.

I was worried when I decided to take this teacher. This is not an easy class. The teacher is wonderful and takes time to explain the material. If you hope to pass without studying this is not the class for you. If you like to learn from somebody who knows, I recommend this teacher. He is absolutely one of the best. You have to work very hard.

Comment:

Prof. Strong is extremely energetic, makes sure everyone is participating throughout labs and lectures. If you put in the effort he will do the same. Skipping a class isn't the best idea, he does move quick but the book and powerpoint do help! He makes all of his tests and makes every question critical thinking (really tough).

Comment:

Prof Strong is an okay professor. I found his lectures unclear/confusing. I basically taught myself by reading the chapters, going over the ppts, and creating my own study guides. His tests are tough, study everything!! If you ask for help, he is willing to help though. Lab practicals are easy if you study and go to the tutoring center.

Comment:

He is a hard grader, but he wants you to know the subject not just memorize it to pass the test. If you're looking for an easy class, this is not for you. You will have to try REALLY hard to make an A. He does not curve, give extra credit, or make things easier for you.

Comment:

Strong was one of my most favorite teachers. About half of my class dropped, but I feel it was due to laziness. If you are not a lazy student and you put the time in, you can guarantee an A or a B. I had a 3 month old baby, a job, and took this class. I worked my butt off and made a B with a lot of help from Mr . Strong. He is an amazing teacher.

RUN!! I MEAN RUN!!IF YOU WANT TO PASS WITH A DECENT GRADE DO NOT TAKE HIM. I HAVE TAKEN A&P I HAVE A MASSAGE LICENSE AND I AM DROPPING MID SEMESTER. NEARLY MY WHOLE CLASS IS FAILING, IN WHICH HE TAKES NO BLAME. HIS TESTS ARE PERSONALLY MADE AND DON'T MAKE SENSE COMPARED TO THE LECTURE. TAKE SOMEONE ELSE!!
