Pathophysiology was the best class with an amazing professor. Dr. Wells was always able to answer any question I had and fully explain the mechanisms any time I didn't understand a part. You will learn so much. He is one of the best in Biology department.

Comment:

AMAZING professor. Office door is always open. Great at explaining difficult topics. Offers a little extra credit in the summer, not during school year. Very laid back but still makes you work hard for your grade. Wouldn't recommend taking online unless very motivated to watch 1.5+ lectures videos each week - I failed 1st time but passed with B 2nd

Comment:

AMAZING TEACHER! I was worried about taking this difficult of a class online, but it has been my favorite class ever. I have learned sooo much and while it is a difficult subject, Dr. Wells makes it so understandable that I don't even realize how difficult of a class it is. I cannot recommend this teacher enough. Oh, All tests are multiple choice

Comment:

First, you will learn. It's a lot of information in very little time. Lots of concepts with lots of tiny details and he grades you on concept & application. Not memorization. I do like how he lectures. He's a bit of a doodler. So he appeals to the visual learners a lot. Keep up.

Dr. Wells has been my favorite teacher so far at MSSU. He makes it very clear what you need to know for the exams and even provides you with the lecture notes on Blackboard. He is always open for extra questions and will help you if you don't understand something. He is extremely knowledgeable in pathophysiology and I would highly recommend him.

Dr. Wells was the best professor I have ever had. His lectures were very clear and to the point. His tests were clinical based, which I really enjoyed. I felt I got to put my knowledge to the true test. I would recommend him to any student especially in the biology field who wants to challenge themselves. I would love to take another class by him!!

Comment:

Dr. Wells is the apple of my eye. This class is comparable to walking on water like Peter in the Bible, but Dr. Wells is like Jesus who has faith in Peter to walk across the water with him. Although attendance doesn't count for a grade, it is very important to come or else you will mentally explode into a dark, emotional abyss of non comprehension.

Dr. Wells is a great professor. His lectures can get confusing, due to the nature of the material, but he is great about clearing it up. He is willing to help and spend extra time with you if you need it. I will be taking him for more classes if I can.

There is a lot of reading and studying on your own. Tests are hard, about 70 questions multiple choice on specific topics. Scenario based questions. Quizzes each week are only 6 questions and 10 min time to do them. A lot of questions are "4 of the 5 are correct, select the exception"

Absolutely one of the best professors I have ever had! He is so helpful and does a great job answering questions and explaining the material in detail. If you take any biology course make sure you try to get his classes!! His classes are tough, but we are in college. . . .

Good professor, really wants everyone to succeed in his class. He uses power points for lectures. Lab quiz every week. Test are hard must study and read the chapters and what ever else you can find. Test questions are not from text book nor lecture, they are scenario questions. Lab test are hard, be sure to study with someone in you lab class.

Comment:

Dr. Wells is a nice man who knows his material; that being said, he makes his lecture exams needlessly difficult. You can study lecture notes all day long but if you haven't worked in the field already you might as well forget about making an A or even a B for that matter. Even in class he is addressing the students who already work in the field:(

Dr. Wells is an AWESOME Prof. He teaches hard courses and makes them clear and understandable. I've taken his Gen Bio, A&P, and now Patho. If you go to class, listen, and take notes on what he lectures you WILL be successful. He makes all his classes interesting and teaches in a way that makes understanding much easier. My all time Favorite Prof.!!

Comment:

OMG! This teach is SOOO hard and, even though he tells you to, you never get into his office to disscuss your grades. Nothing from the lecture is on the exam and even if you know ALL of the material there is no way you can make an A or barely a B. I advise that you steer CLEAR of Dr. Wells!!

Dr. Wells is an amazing teacher!! He will go out of his way to help you and never makes you feel like you are an idiot. He has my utmost respect and I really wish there were more teachers on campus like him. It is a hard class, even being a 100 level, but anything you have a question on he is more than willing to help!

Dr. Wells is a great teacher! A&P is a hard class and requires a lot of memorization, but Dr. Wells is willing to help you out in any way he can. You have to work hard in this class, but you know exactly what is going to be on test and when they are, there are no suprises.

Dr. Wells is a great teacher and only tests on what he teaches in class. He is not an easy instructor by any means, but he tries to make the material understandable and is willing to help students out whenever possible. Plus the man is good looking...what more could you want!!!

Dr. Wells is a GREAT teacher. If you are not willing to put in the effort don't take his class! He gives you the notes and only tests on the notes. Lots of information to remember, but if you study like he tells you its an easy A!
