Comment:

If you don't understand how He explains it then you are probably an idiot in his mind. He told me I couldn't advance in science and would probably not be a great doctor IF I got in. Who says that?I took him years ago, since then I've made it to med school and Iam about to get my phd in molecular biology! god help me if I would have listened to him!

I thought he was very nice, and his accent isn't bad at all. Cut the guy some slack. Not everyone can speak in perfect Bronx-accented English.

Comment:

personally, i thought the accent was too strong and could barely understand him at times,,he does seem nice,, but way too boring,, his grading doesnt seem too fair,, he expects u to know almost exactly what he was thinking for answers,,sometimes hes talkin and just stares at certain people for awhile and smiles,, it kinda scares me

Comment:

he's not as bad as everyone makes him out to be. He is nice and tries to be helpful, but he is not a great teacher and can make some concepts very confusing. Material is boring and will put you to sleep. However, the class is not hard at all. He gives study questions before each exam. As long as you know these you will do fine on the exams

Comment:

he tries his best to teach well, really does. it's a shame that he can't though. he's such a nice man, i almost feel sorry for him. i learnt to study on my own, so his class didn't seem hard after that. his study questions really help. all you need to do is answer them, and you'll pass the test. he is a very fair grader, though not an easy grader.

Comment:

This class was probably the most painful class i've ever taken at Fordham. Not only was the material abstract, but it was BORING. Tests were short answer/essay type questions. He gives you study questions..they didn't narrow down the material to focus on though. you basically had to know everything in detail. wouldn't recommend this class.

Comment:

A LOT of material! He rushes a lot. However, grading is very fair. Gives 7 questions, and tells you to answer 5....so, he's fair. Try to take him, it'll help you for the MCATs.

Comment:

Very nice man; cares about students; very smart and knows his bio; however he's very confusing and doesnt communicate well; test questions sometimes dont make too much sense and dont ask me how he grades them; lecture/notes useless; effort = A- or B+;

Comment:

Meh. His tests are strange I guess? Don't write too much but you can't write enough. It's alot of material to teach and he's a relatively new teacher so I'm sure he'll improve. Nice guy, very passionate about his work. Just stay awake in class.

Very nice man but not too clear in class. He rushes to finish material. TEsts are not too difficult cuz u get a choice of questions to choose from. Its not that bad, just the subject material is confusing.

The man is a condesending son of a b**** who doesn't explain a damn thing and his tests are impossible. He takes off points if you write too much and if you write to little. You can't win!

Absolute worst teacher I have ever had. He's so phony, pretends to care about students, doesn't explain anything, & his tests make absolutely no sense! Do NOT , I REPEAT, DO NOT TAKE KANDPAL, EVEN IF NOTHING ELSE FITS!
