Reviews of professor John Rule

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Lecture can feel boring and tedious only because it's a lecture class so it's nothing but him speaking. The lecture exams are based on the homework packets and quizzes which are timed. He gives us hints on when the quiz will be and will review right before it. Lab exams are all memorization to be fully honest. He drops your lowest exam score.

Isnt clear about what is on exams and quizzes. Doesnt care enough to outline what to read, because the book is used for both anatomy and physiology. His explanation is to just read the whole textbook, keep in mind that the textbook is 1400+ pages long. Drops your lowest exam score, but doesnt help when you are pretty much self teaching yourself

One of the best professors I have ever taken. He makes lectures entertaining. However to learn the material one does need to put in the work and study outside of class. His exams are super similar to the hw packets he offers but you must also understand the meaning of the wrong answers. I was nervous about anatomy but his criteria was very clear.

Professor Rule is nice and polite. However, his lectures are boring since he just reads off PowerPoint, leaves no break for questions. He also adds extra stress for the students since his quizzes are timed and estimated to answer 2 questions per minute! The hw packets are easy to complete but unhelpful. No extra credit or feedback was given.

You should show up to Anatomy lectures so you can pass his pop quizzes. He only had class two times a week for zoom. His exams were easy as long as you did the homework and the lab lectures he posted. It was pretty much identical. He was a good teacher and welcomed questions. His homework packets were long but he gave like a month to do them.

A piece of advice, you learn more with external materials than the lectures so for you guys trying to get deep into this science I highly don't recommend this lame guy. Don't expect him to round up your grade (guys). I memorized more than I learned. I looked forward for anatomy and instead I was given a (1) point less than an A, with no recognition
