Reviews of professor Scott Powers

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Powers is hands down one of the best professors I have had at UF. First of all, he is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet and is super willing to help you with any questions you may have. His lectures are very interesting if you are interested in physiology which you probably should be since this is an APK class. His exams are super fair.

He's SO passionate, well-versed and really cares that you understand material. Class isn't mandatory but you'll regret skipping when it comes down to exam time. Always offers to arrange times to meet if office hours don't work. Always asks how you did when you turn in your exam. Caffeinate before class. Fantastic professor, highly recommend.

Powers is a great guy but can be extremely monotone and boring, especially at 7:30 in the morning. Class is not the hardest but you really need to study a good amount to do good. He wrote the book used for the class so that tells you how smart the guy is. If you can, take him

Dr. Powers is a great guy. He definitely had trouble with the online platform, and the class is extremely test heavy, but if you read the book and go to lecture the exams aren't that hard. I think it's an easy A if you put in a normal amount of work, it doesn't take a tremendous amount of studying.

Dr. Powers is one of the nicest and most enthusiastic professors I've ever taken. He genuinely cares about his students and wants everyone to do well. If you can take him, do it! He is incredibly knowledgable and even wrote the textbook for the class (although not necessary to use, it's super interesting to read).

He was a good lecturer, and I liked the teaching style, but it was difficult material and I felt like you had to sit there and read the book to understand. I also found it really hard to meet with the TA's, they acted like they were open for students to come and get help but they had such limited schedules and barely had time to meet.

Dr. Powers is clearly knowledgeable about the and one of the nicest and well-respected professors I've had at UF. Under different circumstances I would have dived head first into this subject that I love, but was stuck studying for physics or O-chem and resulted in not having as much time to read the text he wrote. Read the TEXT and you should pass
