Comment:
If you want an easy A then take him, BUT you won't learn anything at all. All of his test questions are on quizlet. He always messes up on grading. There were so many things in his lectures that were completely wrong, he has a large ego, and even though I got an A+, I want to take it again w/someone else so I can LEARN. Dont expect cadaver lab time

Great instructor, everything you need to know for the tests is on Quizlet . com! Very friendly, laid back, intelligent, and funny. Willing to answer any questions and help in any way possible. You get 100 points for attendance! No need to use textbook. Lectures are interesting and he usually lets you out early. Take him!

Comment:
He knew his stuff, but bad teacher. If a teacher cannot explain, illustrate and organize the subject to make it understandable, then it makes it MUCH HARDER on the student! I don't need any extra help making it more confusing! If you really want to learn for future classes, skip him.

Comment:
Filipiak’s tests are multiple choice, and the two practicals are simple as well. He is a fun teacher who tells stories all the time, but doesn’t utilize class time. Sure, he’ll let you out early, but don’t expect to earn an A unless you’re good at learning things on your own or have an excellent memory and can study a few hours before the test.

Dr Filipiak is a great professor. He uses real life stories that relate to material to keep it interesting. Great note packet so you can give your hand a rest. Do your self a favor and take Filipiak.

He's an excellent teacher. He keeps things fresh and fun, he doesn't drone on reading slide after slide of a boring power point drawn out of the book, he frequently draws on a projector to help get concepts across. Best teacher I've had in college.

WORST teacher on campus. If your a girl youll get a good grade. If your looking for an easy A take this class. If your actually wanting to be able to learn something steer clear from this clown

He is okay, he doesn't follow through with videos', and other teaching instruments before exams. He also is very egocentric and considers himself a "prime" specimen. Chicks around here need to leave this town to see that he's not as hot as he thinks he is.

Love Dr.Filipiak! Great power point notes that flow with his lectures. Uses stories to illustrate some of his points which helps you remember come test time! We have a lot of laughs and learn a great deal at the same time. I'd definately recommend the DOC! Thanks for making class worth coming to

Filipiak was the best teacher I had for my first year of college. I will always remember his corny jokes and little moves that he did all the time. Colby! Come on now!

Dude, Filipiak is a stud. He is the greatest Teacher to ever grace the eEarth. Even the Milkway Galaxy. He has a great teaching style, laid back atmosphere, and a cool guy. Plus, he's a hottie, so if your a chick definitely take his class.
