Comment:

Overall, I think this professor is reasonable. If you put in the work for this class you will do okay. She seems mean in lecture but is nice of you go to her office hours. Some of her quizzes are worded so that they trick you which kinda sucks, but overall she means well and wants you to succeed.

Comment:

Even though Pundts class is hard, she is a really great professor. Shes always willing to help if you dont understand material and is very friendly. Her tests are tough, but its an anatomy class. Theyre fair tests and you can make a good grade if you just study.

Comment:

She is horrible. Her tests and quizzes are worded to where no one understands what is going on, her lectures are completely different from what she uses for the tests. She has no test guidelines and each test is cumulative from previous material in the last tests. If you can avoid taking her do it, its VERY hard to pass without constantly studying

Comment:

By far one of the worst teacher I have ever had. This professor literally reads off the powerpoints and has a terrible teaching style. Reading the textbook is a lot easier to understand than her, so you pretty much have to teach yourself the material.

Comment:

She is my least favorite professor Ive ever had. Makes you use outdated software to take your test, even after the computer department asked her not to. I had to retake every single test in this class because the proctoring she makes you use doesnt work. Shes quick to accuse of cheating and doesnt accommodate students whatsoever.

Pundt is great but if you don't try you wont pass. Studying for test and quizzes is not optional if you want to do good. There are 4 test, the first three are 15% of the final grade and the final is 20% of the final grade. Quizzes online every Wednesday. Take notes and study and you can do well, would recommend and would take her again.

Comment:

Pundt is an excellent teacher. The class is VERY hard IF you don't work on your own. I took her for both A&P's. She is caring and wants you to succeed. If you are lazy do not take this class. I feel that taking her was a good decision now that I am in nursing school. Other classmates struggle due to their poor grasp of A&P taught by other teachers.

Comment:

She puts her philosophical belief of challenging students to be the best in the whole world (without telling them). But she doesn't teach well, she just cranks up the difficulty of quiz/exam questions. I'm having to retake 2302 with a different professor, and so far its a walk in the park compared to Suzanne. If I were in charge, I'd punt Pudnt off

Terrible teacher. Reads everything off of power points and gives no other thought to her lectures outside of that. Incredibly meticulous tests and quizzes. Do not expect to enjoy this class.

Great teacher. The class is definitely not easy, but if you pay attention in class and do homework you should be fine. Test are 90% multiple choice and roughly 10% essay. She even tells you the possible essay questions that will be on the exam. If you don't understand a particular topic, visit her office hours as she is very eager to help!

Awesome teacher but she makes you earn your grade. A lot of material is covered so be prepared to study a lot and pay attention in class. I never read the book. Go to SI, study power points, and really understand the concepts. Memorization will not cut it for this class- you must be able to apply things.

Weekly quizzes are worth 20% and they are HARD. I am an A student and her quizzes suck. She gives 4 tests, equally hard. She expects you to KNOW EVERY SINGLE DETAIL in the chapter. No study guides. Also wiley plus assignment (50 questions) due for every chapter. I will make an A but if you can't teach yourself by reading a book, don't take her

Anatomy & Physiology is a difficult class. Simply listening to her lectures won't do it. You need to study a LOT to make a decent grade on her tests.

Pundt was an amazing professor! Too bad I was a horrible student. I most definitely failed her class. But the times I visited with her during office hours to discuss my issues with prioritizing, were so helpful. We talked on a personal level, and I felt nothing but gratitude for her words. She really does care and wishes the best for her students.

Comment:

Dr. Pundt is best described by one word. Fair. Her tests never cover anything she didn't mention or discuss in the lecture, in other words she doesn't ask questions out of left field. Also, after the tests are done, she offers make-up questions for people to answer in order to earn some points back. Would take again.

A LOT of information, as any A&P class. She does give a lot of chances for extra credit and daily grades and posts lectures online. As long as you actually pay attention and study you can do it. Her slides are vital!! She's TOUGH.. but if you're going medical, it's the best choice. At least you know that you'll know the material and can't slack.

Mrs. Pundt is a fair teacher. It was a priority to me to make a good grade in this class so i worked my tail off, but it definitely did not come easy. This course is very difficult I studied the material every single day for minimum two hours. It is possible to make a good grade in this course, but be very prepared to work for it. Also attend SI !!

This class is extremely hard and she's one of my least favorite professors here. I find her annoying and hard to listen to. Not a fan.
