Dr. Bob is pretty cool. Just make sure to take notes in class and study them. Making a quilt makes this easier. I had him for lab and lecture and they went hand in hand. Really pay attention to detail when studying for quizzes and final exam. Dont buy the book, waste of money. Get on his radar.

Dr Bob is awesome not the hardest class ever but you do have to put in the work to get the grade you want. His test are what he talks about so record lecture. Great teacher and Im not a straight A kind of student. This was for Microbiology.

Record him. I got an A, it wasn't easy, but it wasn't hard. He is not a professor that is out to get you, just put the work in to get the grade you want.

Dr. Bob's class was awesome. I would take him again if I could. His tests are basically the things he says in lecture so take good notes. Do well on his "quizzes" which were basically tests and do well on your case study. He has really funny stories and you'll learn a lot in class.

Dr. Bob is awesome! I took him during the summer and I thought having to be in lecture for 3 hours would be a drag, I was wrong! He made class went by quick with his interesting stories, which made it more easy to understand every single topic. Take him!

Comment:

Dr "Bob" is entertaining and makes Microbiology fun. He is soft spoken so sit at the front if hard of hearing. Tests straight from lecture and slides. Won't answer questions for the Final review. That part was a bit frustrating because why am I here? If you are a lazy student, I can understand that. But I'm not. Overall, good professor.

GREAT teacher. His examples seem extreme which is helpful for memorization. Theres 7 quizzes (drops 2), 5 page research paper, hw (answers in back of book), and final. Requires a lot of study time but he's a GREAT teacher and makes it bearable.

Dr Bob is incredible! I actually was dreading the class. He truly enjoys teaching and it makes all the difference. Tests are from power points, just pay attention and take notes. One paper only. I took him for both lecture and lab, which I highly advise.

Hands down a great professor. Dr. Bob is very helpful. We had a quiz on powerpoints every two weeks, 1 paper and a final exam. It is not an easy class but he makes it very interesting. You have to study because the subject is hard but if you follow his powerpoints and his class instructions you can make an A.

Dr. Bob is a great teacher, he clearly loves what he does and most importantly he makes micro very interesting. It does require lots of studying and hard work. The book is not needed! Anyone that said he is not a good teacher clearly made NO effort. Micro is much better than A & P; if I had to take micro again it would be with Dr. Bob hands down!!

THE BEST PROFESSOR AT GPC! Just come to lecture/lab and study his PowerPoints and lab manual and you will get an A. Anybody who got less than a B are just lazy because you obviously have to take this class if you're trying to be in the medical field. If you can't survive his easy class, I suggest you change your major to restaurant management.

His presentation is very interesting and you will learn a lot. However, he tells you so much, it's not easy to determine what is relevant. Tests are hard and you must study, can't emphasize that enough.

Great professor! One of the best I've had. Quizes are challenging but aren't impossible. Dr. Bob's class makes you think outside the box. Highly recommended for lab and lecture. Put in the time and this class is easy going, laid back, and very interesting. He drops 2 out of the 7 quizes and there is 1 quiz every 2 weeks. A+++
