Reviews of professor Mohamdod Alzer

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
The tests did not accurately represent what we were supposed to know; it was very disappointing to feel like you understood the material but not do well. Not giving any points for homework/participation put 3 (unfair) midterms at 50% of the final grade. Every single test had questions that explicitly contradicted what was taught in his own lectures

I took Moe for Ultimate Frisbee and he is a super nice guy. He made class fun and let us do what we wanted. Attendance is mandatory, but if you do quizzes and labs on time it should be an easy A. Quizzes are all found on Quizlet.

i liked him he was nice; he always met me for office hours and he always gave me points back if i explained my point well. you don't really have to worry about his wording because as long as you have a valid explanation he will give you points back. don't take him if you have no self confidence and can't explain things i guess.

Mohamdod is a really great guy. Very nice in office hours and he wants you to understand the material. Test/quiz questions can be tricky (possibly 1-3 per quiz that are poorly worded), but overall it is definitely manageable. I found if I took detailed notes and used the images from the power points in my notes, the lectures were all you need.

Take LFIT with him if you can. Super chill and funny dude who views students more like peers than under him. Great guy to talk to and doesn't care what you do in class, but he's a lot of fun to play with. If you don't get an A in LFIT with him, then you're doing something wrong

loved it. if you email him asking for explanations on quiz/test questions (he most likely will not explain them well and will only give you the points back if everyone else also got it wrong) he will reply promptly! his lectures were also super funny, and he even bumped my grade over the edge at the end, so that made up for the rest of this course.

Great instructor! Doesn't lecture very much during class but I didn't find it necessary; gave us a lot of time in lab to really focus on the questions we had. Gave great study tips and was super nice!

The worst professor I have ever had- do not take from him. He never met with the class and is extremely condescending when you ask him questions (despite not teaching a thing). He is not a help at all and his exam questions are practically unreadable. I have never felt the need to leave a professor a rating but he was so bad that I had to warn.

Professor Alzer explains the material well in the sense that you understand physiology. However, his tests are incredibly tricky and badly made and worth a very large part of the overall grade. Even meeting with him will not fully prepare you for the questions he asks and the quizzes do not help prepare you properly. Not the best choice for anatomy
