Reviews of professor Victor Carmona

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Really great guy & he makes the class fun.  Lots of assignments, but that means a better chance of improving your grade. He's very passionate & engaging.  Explains things well.  It may take a while before you see your grades, but he lets you know how you're doing and what you need to work on.  Participate and do the work and you'll do just fine.

Carmona does seem to be a nice guy but does lack some qualities. FIrst, he apparently "grades" your work and does not tell you what you received on it. He only tells you what is your grade overall. Email does not work with him, many students and I emailed him and he never responds. A LOT OF PROJECTS NO EXAMS DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS TOO MUCH WORK!

Carmona does lack many things in regards being a professor. Not very clear on grading, apparently you have to take in lab notes and he did not tell us about it. He also does not respond to any emails so do not even bother emailing him. He has office hours but he does not understand that we students are not available 24/7. DO NOT TAKE THE CLASS

WORST CLASS AT DETROIT MERCY! Dr. Carmona is a very nice guy and has a passion for biology. Unfortunately, he does not know how to teach and always seems clueless. He does not update anything on his website and hardly posts quizzes. Grades are at random. Would never take this professor again.

Dr. Carmona is the best professor I have had. He is extremely helpful during labs, and the quizzes are essentially class quizzes (open note). Everything is electronic, and after you adapt it becomes extremely convenient and simple. Always available outside of class, and wants to see students succeed. I HIGHLY recommend taking him.

he's a great prof. Highly recommend reading the text. Exams are mostly based on pictures from the powerpoint slides. it's not hard to get an A if you cover all the material given to you. If you catch him during office hours, he definitely answers all your questions with a smile.

This class setup is extremely different than any other science class I have taken. It is not a traditional learning environment, with learning being based on projects not tests. The grades were not clear in this class, but if you participate and ask for help and guidance you will do great. I actually learned a lot in this class and would recommend.

dr carmona is making me reconsider majoring in biology at this school. the class is extremely unorganized, he neglects us to the point where it is disrespectful, and there is an excessive amount of time put in outside of class just to receive mediocre grades. he doesn't communicate with us despite saying he will, and doesn't answer emails. avoid!!!
