Very straightforward in lectures and on tests. He will not try to trick you. He gives practice problems and practice tests, so if you study all of them (which isn't that much compared to other classes) you will do fine.
It's heavy material, but he's funny and passionate.
know your slides inside and out, and listen intently in class. He speaks fast at times so record him if you must. THe class is difficult because a good percentage of the class is pre-med. Pre-med students are studious. goodluck.
Mahan is one of the top professors in MCDB dept. Extremely helpful during office hours. I highly recommend taking this class. Also he is really funny in lecture. The class is tough, but put in the time and go to OH and you'll do great.
Very interesting class. Go to class, record it, read book for reference and listen to recordings. He is very clear in lecture, but goes pretty fast. You need to work for an A in this class.
awesome professor. has passion for what he teaches and amazingly can make a class about bacteria interesting. his awkward and stupid jokes keep me laughing for days. i always look foward to coming to his class.
He is hilarious! This class could be really boring but he teaches it well and is genuinely interesting. His corny jokes keep the class fun and upbeat!
Very straight forward class. Know everything on his slides. He asks very detailed questions, so have to know everything in order to get an A in the class. He's kind of snooty, but put the work in and you can do well in the class.
this class was awesome. materials r very intersting and the tests were fairly easy... u learn a lot in this class. prof. smith was nice dude, and u don't really have to read the book to do well in this class. highly recommended for pre-med student(this class is practically a mcat prep course).
This was a very interesting but very hard course!! Be prepared to put in a lot of time and know the details if you want to do well.
An 85% was an A. That's pretty reasonable. Also- this is Human Physiology. If you want to be a doctor you better do well in it. The class wasn't easy, but a class like this shouldn't be.
Very fun! Very helpful! Great prof. Classes are hard, but no one ever said science was supposed to be easy. Taking his class was a great experience!
This class is really hard! His curve is dumb because he averages the top 10 grades (usually around a 95%) and then bases the rest of the grades around that. 10% away from the top is an A, 10% away from that is a B and so on. He's pretty much a jerk. Interesting class, bad professor!
Great Professor, is pretty funny. Will take time and has patience to explain things. Can be tough, but its not an easy subject. Expect to be challenged and he will come through on his end. Great class.
Class isn't too bad, but Smith is kinda a dick. Not too helpful, thinks he's funny. DON'T sit with test after he calls time or he will take it away and declare it failed!
Hilarious guy
