Professor Krown knows a lot about biology and makes the lectures very clear and interesting.If you really want to learn, I highly recommend him. There are 4 lectures test (multiple choice)100 points each. You can get also 20 extra credits.Another good thing:attendance is not mandatory, but if you want get an A you should go. Good Luck!

Anatomy overall is not easy because it is A LOT of information to know in this class, but he does try to make it understandable. Attend all his classes and recording the lectures really help. All of his lectures are on power points and that's what the exams are based off of, so if you study the power points you'll do fine.

Great guy, knows a lot on the topic. Know the lecture slides & don't skip class. He's very relaxed & tries to help all of his students. Sometimes hard to decode what is most important b/c he gives you so much info. Highly reccomended!

Anatomy is very hard. It will take up most of your time, so I suggest that if you are taking more science classes, take this class with someone else or another Sem.

Krown is an excellent professor. Very helpful & patient. Not studying is not an option. You better know everything on his power points. Everything! Physiology itself is a tough topic; he makes it digestible. He knows his stuff and is cool to talk to. Thankfully he's not one of those mean prof. who hate their lives & are out to get their students.

Greatest Professor Ever. Don't even read the negative posts about him, I've taken many classes in my life and this is one of the easiest and nicest professors in all my entire academic career. His tests are super easy and clear, he gives extra credit and an awesome and sweet guy to talk to. Very helpful and genuinely cares about his students.

He only reason I passed this course was because of lab with miss Jenna. I would suggest taking a different teacher for lecture because the wAy he writes his test qs is confusing. I felt like why I even read the book or go over his ppts. Ughhh...stress! Take another teacher. I mean c'mon I passed Microbiology with an A n ppl say that class was hard!

Like all Bio classes, you have to work for your grade so don't listen to the negative comments. Dr. Krown is an amazing professor who cares about his students. His tests are based on his ppts. Yea you have to know everything on the ppts, but that beats studying the expensive textbook. He doesn't even make you buy the book! Tell me that is not nice.

Entertaining. But so is a movie. Everyone taking this class is for nursing or med school and we need As and fair questions to get them. I get them in other classes. He asks trick questions to force Cs not As. Did not bother with extra credit because he offers it for appearance but the points are so low that it makes no grade difference

Plan to half-ass school? Go ahead and mind the last 2 posts. Anatomy is a tough subject to get through in one semester--Krown gets it done, but he demands that you keep up with him. Considering that most ppl taking this class seek the health field, it shouldnt shock us that an A is not easily attained. Work hard or cry about it. Great prof.

Dr. Krown is THE BEST teacher for anatomy ever. The first day, he was so nice that everyone loved him and still does. tests are 80% multiple choice, 20% short answer - easy if you study. print out his slides or take good notes, & you're good. Lab is tough-but he's fair and not tricky. Always willing to explain if u have questions. Fabulous teacher!

i dont get what people are saying. i took this class with him in the summer and got no extra credit NONE and no curve. well 88% is an A but that is not a curve. i had a different guy for lab tho, and HE gave extra credit. but Krown never gave extra credit. beware of the other posts. they are not true. he was not easy.

Because of this class... I feel as if my world is over. It is so hard. I study all day everyday too.

Genuinely one of the best teachers I've ever had. Taking him for Anatomy too. One of the nicest, most patient professors you'll take. Print and study slides and you're set. Gives extra credit. EASY labs give your grade a buffer. Lecture- 40 m/c and 5 short answers which he gives you for every test. Please TAKE HIM! Easy A!

The hardest part of Physiology is that there is soooo much information to sift through and learn. Dr. Krown does a great job explaining things with plenty of visual aids. Print out his slides and take your notes on them. He is enthusiastic about science and compassionate towards students. He will is always willing to help his students.

Don't email him, he will never get back to you. He is way behind, unorganized and boring. He is very repetitive in a bad way. He repeats himself in 12 different ways and often confuses himself. I have an A in the class but not becuase of him. His tests are tricky and very SPECIFIC. No general questions, you need to know EVERYTHING from his slides.

Dr. Krown is the best teacher in EVER! Physiology and Anatomy are incredibly hard classes, but he makes them as easy as humanly possible. To get an A, you must make flash cards of every single Powerpoint slide or you will fail miserably. Dr. Krown will explain anything over and over until you understand it. He's patient even with the biggest idiots
