Comment:

This is a tough course!!! I wouldn't recommend it if you've never had chemistry or biology. HOWEVER, this is a professor that loves what he does and is more than willing to help. Send him an email with a question and you will get an answer and not one of those "here is a link" search for the answer yourself kind of emails.

To be honest the class isn't that hard, but it doesn't mean that you can slack. The class overall was kind of tedious and Jack was okay as a professor. It was actually kind of annoying because reading and quizzes are on another website, instead on Blackboard.

Take someone else. Study guides poorly corresponded with what was being tested. Bad test averages, and does not give constructive feedback.

I took his online class, I didn't need to contact him for help. Directions in assignments are very clear. The exam questions comes MOSTLY from his lecture videos and study guides. Watch out for his final diet evaluation project, SUPER TIME CONSUMING. Did it last minute and took me 3 days straight! Overall, I enjoyed the class and learned a lot.

Comment:

I'm seeing a lot of negative feedback on Jack and I'm so surprised. His study guides are really helpful - literally 70% of the questions are on the exam so you should pass with at least a C. Some are say that he's rude but he's not - he's just sarcastic. I had to study a lot but that's because the material was tough and passed with an A on my exams

He seems like a nice guy but I don't feel like he is a great teacher for this subject. I understand the material is hard, but he doesn't make it any better with his style. If you take this class just know the study guides aren't exactly on point, and start the final project early.

I think Jack was a very good teacher. If you put in the effort for his classes, you will be successful. He is extremely caring and will help you if you let him! I recommend taking him FOR SURE.

I have too many degrees and that means I have had many professors. Jack has set a new low. His lectures? Bad. The ppt for the lectures? Thrown together. His study guides? Misleading. He seems like a nice guy that is clearly knowledgeable, but not everyone is a teacher. I will let the school know of his lack of effort, but you guys should know too.

He clearly doesnt know how to use a computer because his materials are formatted like a third grader put them together. There is no order to the way we are going through the materials. His study guides are pretty much the test, but his lectures are so hard to follow because of his scattered attack, that going through the study guides can be hard.

Unclear expectations, meandering lectures with terrible jokes (disrespectful of valuable student time), study guide doesn't match the exams, expensive online program with extensive required homework that doesn't to the exams, completely disorganized course site. Total mess of a class. Only difficult because of that. Would never recommend.

Jack was an okay teacher. The class was a tough class and he gave lots of things to read, but that is what is expected it's a college course. He is willing to host study sessions before exams, and the labs were actually really fun! At the end Jack even rounded up my grade to an A so that was really nice too!

His class was pretty hard, but keep in mind that the material itself isn't easy. The first week is the most hectic, but other than that it's not so bad. You have to study really hard for this class to pass the exams, but that's 'cause the material is difficult. Plus, he has a lot of extra credit and it helps a lot.

Very dry sense of humor and that makes lectures long and drawn out. Overall, he is a good professor and I would take him again.

Great teacher, but very difficult class. Lots of lecturing, hard grader especially on exams. Dry sense of humor, really funny. Loved this teacher, but with the level of difficulty I am not sure I'd take him again in the future. You really have to work EXTREMELY hard and apply yourself in this class. He holds you accountable.

I took BI112 online & FN w/ Jack. His study guides are very helpful in doing well on exams. He has a very dry sense of humor and relatively easy to get ahold via email or in person. He hands out a lot of assignments but he tell you upfront what he expects. Overall, if you keep up with the busy work its easy to get a good grade.

This was a very difficult class in the sense that there is A LOT of work to do. Quizzes & exams are proctored and due every other week, as well as discussion posts. An in-depth 3 day diet analysis is due at the end of the term IN ADDITION to the final exam. Jack is a tough grader, but offers extra credit and is quick at grading and messaging.

I took FN225 in the summer and it was a big mistake. Along with FN225 I took two more classes and the amount of homework and studying I needed to do for this class was stressful. There are exams almost every other week. Very Very difficult class. Take this course when you have a lot of time in your hands and don't take too many classes with it

Get ready to do a lot of reading and assignments. He is very clear on what he expects, and is easily accessible if you want to ask for clarification. Quizzes are based on articles he easily provides on portal since the beginning of term and tests are based on all his lectures you can watch as many times as you need.
