Comment:

Not very organized on canvas. If you have questions shes demeaning and makes snide remarks. Shes very smart but goes on tangents during lectures. Do all extra credit if you want a chance on passing. Be prepared to dedicate your life to this class if you want to pass.

Comment:

She goes on taggents a lot. She always says to ask questions, but when you do she will make you feel stupid for doing so. You will definitely know who her favorites in the class. Canvas is very unorganized. You basically teach yourself. There is a lot of extra credit for each exam which helps. She does teach well, but she will never help you.

Comment:

I took her class during COVID. I actually wish that I was able to have her normal lectures, because it was clear from her videos that she's really good at explaining the material and she's super smart. The online format certainly made it easier, but I feel like I would have learned more if it was a normal class. I could tell that she really cares.

Comment:

Karah is the best of the 3 professors for bio12 but, she is very unorganized, pretends like its okay to ask her questions then yells at you when you do, and will go on rants during lecture. This is the hardest class I've ever taken, but I managed to get an A by going to tutoring 4 times a week, and studying all day every day.

Comment:

Anatomy will be hard no matter what but you can definitely get an A in her class as long as you do your work. Form study groups. Her anatomy class has a mix of Physiology as well to prepare you for it. Gives LOTS of extra credit. I know a few in my class who got As. Go to LRC and talk to former students to get some notes from them as well.

This is class extremely time-consuming. Karah gives you everything you need to do well in the class. Pay attention during lecture and spend all of your time studying! Tutoring helps a lot and allows you to get study material from students in other classes.

Karah is the best professor I have had. She's tough but she really knows her stuff. if you expect to go to class and do what you've done before you wont do well. you have to change how you study for this class. She's a great teacher and she really makes you work for you grade, it will make you a better student she prepares you for future classes.

I LOVE KARA. Okay anyone who says anything bad about Kara doesnt understand life. You will never find a professor who cares the way she does. Kara is hilarious and makes the lectures so entertaining and actually makes me want to learn. She gives out hw packets that save you. I took Kara last semester and she made me fall in love with anatomy.

Comment:

Karah Street comes off tough at first but she is one of the most caring and compassionate teachers I have had the pleasure of taking. She keeps her lectures entertaining and is ALWAYS there for help, just ask. Focus on your homework packets, ask questions, interact in class, and go to tutoring. If you do these things you will pass this class.

Comment:

Amazing professor. This class is very taxing, a lot of information to cover in such a short time. Karah does her best to keep you interested in the material. It is obvious that she enjoys both the subject and teaching. Word of wisdom: Do not take this class casually. It is exceedingly difficult, but interesting. Good luck!

4 exams. 1 accumulative. 2 lab exams. Roughly studying 25-35 hours per week. H/w packages of 20-30 pages. Lab workbook + Lab physioEx assingments in which should NEVER postpone till last minute to complete. Time management is KEY. Many students were repeating the course due to not taking the class seriously.

Comment:

Karah is a captivating instructor with her breadth of knowledge, attention to detail and engaging personality. Patho springboards from her Physio instruction but in far greater detail. Her selected lecture topics and tests were immensely helpful in preparing me for nursing school. I am grateful that she was my instructor and I recommend her HIGHLY.

Comment:

I absolutely loved taking physio with Kara. Yes, it is a super difficult class by nature, but she offers extra credit and will make sure you are prepared for a career in healthcare. Her lectures are interesting and engaging. Tutors are very helpful. This class will require a ton of outside studying, but its so worth it.

Comment:

Karah is a professor who has truly changed my perspective about teaching. Her class was incredible difficult but I can not say enough of how amazing of a professor she is. She is by far the smartest human being I have met. People complain about how hard her tests are but if you ask her she will help you. She makes you THINK and UNDERSTAND.

Homework packets are due the day before the test... Make your life easier and go to the tutors at the LRC. Also, Karah provides recordings of her lectures as well as Youtube videos. USE THEM. The first test is the hardest but they get better from there! Don't be intimidated. Lastly, don't take another hard class with this one. It will be too much.

She is really a great professor! I had her for Lab and she was terrific. She gives great examples that you will understand which makes it a lot easier. She will wake you up in the mornings because of her enthusiastic energy! Loved her!

One of THE best professors I have ever had the pleasure of learning from. She's funny, kind, and very knowledgeable. She makes the course matter fun to learn, and evidently cares about her students. I've never known anyone who advocates for their students the way she does. The class itself was challenging, but she taught it very well.

Comment:

Karah basically make the curriculum for all physio classes. The average on the tests is around a 70% so I have no idea how she had a high rating. If students test poorly, youre teaching poorly. End of story. I would take the class at ivc if I were you, since all the physio teachers use her exams. She also makes you do a lot at home online. All bad
