Professor Pietropollo is an amazing teacher definitely would recommend for A+P 1, he knows that there is a lot of info so he tries his best to make it the easiest he can. Only complaint is that for Lab you only have three grades which are the practicals, wish he would put in weekly quizzes just to help boost our grades.

He is an AMAZING professor!! He gives online quizzes due after every chapter taught & they are such good grade boosters. He also gives study guides for every chapter & gives extra credit to everyone who completes them which is great! His exams are very straight forward, everything on the study is on the exam! Highly recommend taking him!!!

Dude, easiest class ever. He literally stands in front of the class and reads the answers to the test as a "review" and then hands it out and you take it. Surprisingly I did learn a lot from the class because I did not have to stress over tests so I took my time reading the material and learning. Great guy to learn from. Very young and ambitious

I took this professor for summer 2 BIO 106 and he was great. He gives a quiz every class so if you skip you wont get credit. His quizzes are fill in the blank, but he is VERY straight forward with you. What he says is on the quiz IS ON THE QUIZ. Very kind hearted and intelligent.

Everyone dreads taking A&P but Frank makes the material easy to manage and understand. He's very straight forward and doesn't add unnecessary bs to complicate the material. Tests are very high level and there are no tricks. If he didn't go over it in class or said it won't be on a test it's not. If you study and try this class is an attainable A.

This class is challenging, no matter who you have as a professor. He makes you enjoy class and makes the material as easy to understand as possible. Incredibly efficient and doesn't waste time making you do all kinds of extra irrelevant work. I will happily take any other course he teaches that I need in the future. DEFINITLEY take him!

Frank is an exceptional professor when it comes to teaching. He talks very fast so make sure you have a quick hand and can keep up. On the downside he is a very tough grader. I do very well in my other classes but when it comes to Franks class, I study two weeks in advance and it still doesn't pay off.

I absolutely loved Frank. I was fortunate enough to have him for both lab and lecture! So glad I did because it made everything a lot easier. This man is smart and could answer pretty much any medical question you have. He's a fast talker and might be hard to follow in the beginning, but teaches phenomenally! Definitely take him! Made it fun!

Gives slides with material you need to know. Although it is a lot of material, it is Anatomy.. Its a heavy lecture class to begin with. He does an amazing job at explaining. Super understanding and a great professor.

Professor Pietropollo is incredibly smart and talented. He knows how to connect real life problems to what he is teaching. He does not try to trick his students. What he teaches you is exactly what is put on the quizzes and tests. Word for word. He is understanding and will take time to address your needs. Highly recommend him. Easy A if you try.

He was very helpful in class and willing to work with me on days that I was unavailable for class. He wants you to do well in the class, although the material can be difficult at times. If you stay on top of due dates and study you will do great in his class!

Great Professor, he makes it easy to understand what you need to know and he won't give you any surprises on quizzes or tests. He was available to help with class and lab and made sure that you knew that his door was always open
