Comment:

He is probably the most arrogant, unqualified advisor students have ever dealt with. He has no concern for students' well being, and his actions are always about preserving his reputation of the "old wise hard ass". Keep your personal life far away from this man.

Comment:

To survive this class, read the book before the lecture, take very thorough notes, and record the lectures to fix your notes (ESSENTIAL). Share notes and study together - it's very helpful. Tests are very tricky, but you somewhat learn how to decode them. Finals aren't too bad. GO TO OFFICE HOURS! You'll want to die, but you'll live. I promise.

Comment:

This class was hard, I spent hours in the library studying for this one course but I recommend taping his lectures, listening to them again, and re-writing them. Memorize everything he says. By the end, I had never studied that much for a course but it was worth it, I learned a lot. Don't get discouraged, go see him in office hours!

Comment:

GU runs an outstanding nursing program, and Angerio is a major contributor to the program's success. Hardest classes I ever took. Would you really want somebody who was responsible for your life taking "easy" courses? GU Nurses work hard for their grades and for their degrees. Nobody said nursing was easy.

It was no doubt a hard class. I put in so many hours to study for the exams. you will have to probably tape his lectures and memorize them. He was actually extremely helpful during his office hours. I didn't buy the book, and did just fine.

Comment:

He really does keep track of attendance, so have a friend sign you in if you miss class. He cares more about details and numbers than the big picture. If you want an A, you need to read the textbook before class, record his lectures and memorize them, don't miss any class, and go to his office hours once a week. He's a nice guy outside of class.

Comment:

Teaches entire 16-week course from memory and from ancient old crusty transparencies in use since the 1970's. Classes are fairly interesting, but unfortunately he does not test on classroom material and your grade will be essentially random. If you have a bio/kinesiology background that will help, but even those folks wind up with C's.

Comment:

His patho class is nothing more than a book on tape. The man does not know the first thing about teaching. He simply recites the same lecture year after year. After 40 years of saying the same thing, he knows his script pretty well now. I am unimpressed/disappointed. My professors at community college actually taught and interacted with students!!

HELL. You might be able to hack it for a little while, but this class is so demoralizing. By the end you won't want to put in the 342308928+ hours it takes to do well.

Comment:

Please don't listen to other commenters! Angerio is a textbook on legs, and his exams are super hard, but if you are really into learning about the human body then you will enjoy the material you learn. I used to be so afraid of him, but after I went to his office hours I realized how sweet he is. I'm glad I stayed in the NHS and didn't switch out.

Comment:

Extremely hard. Some people didn't touch their textbook, I wouldn't have passed without mine. Read the textbook chapters, and make sense of your class notes with it. Stay alert at all times during lectures. Requires those regular, 2-3 weeks in advance study schedules you never thought necessary. He's inaccessible but I hear he's a nice guy.

Comment:

Angerio expects you to learn an impossible amount in the given time, and then when you do, he gives you impossible tests that don't even cover what you learned. Also he doesn't make any time for students. Read the text and get good at guessing on his style of questions. However, you do end up learning a ton, and his final isn't too bad.

Comment:

Interesting class, I learned a lot! Do not need the textbook if you go to class and transcribe his notes. The tests are impossible, so it will be rough on your GPA. But he seems to pass everyone who shows improvement. The final is 50% of you grade, so keep up with the material at the end of the semester and it will help.

Comment:

Angerio is very hard. Don't buy the text, I never even opened it. Get a bunch of classmates together & start a transcribing schedule. I never took a single note in his class and just read the transcriptions and I did fine. Definitely join a tutoring group & go to his office hours. He will pass you if he knows you are trying even if your grade sux

Comment:

Hard class, taught by med school prof. Advice: MAKE THE TIME to read the chapters and organize your notes. Go to tutoring. Your grade reflects how much time you put into it. Tests are hard and require test taking skills, but if you have a strong knowledge base u can figure it out. Take advantage of the 1st two tests, they're the easiest.

Another blemish on the GU School of Nursing. Smart, smart man but a horrible teacher. He's been phoning it in for years. I think he stays around to ruin as many lives as possible.

Horrible teacher. Mysterious grading rubric. Avoid at all costs even if that involves going to another school.
