I took this class with RIMA Khankan, which I believe is Rana's sister. Her lectures were incredibly dense and hard to understand. However, she did take our feedbacks half way into the quarter and slowed down + spelled out structures + added more diagrams. I would recommend taking really good notes because there's weekly quizzes. I also recommend focusing on the stuff in the lab manual when you study for her midterm/final. There is absolutely too much details in her notes to memorize for the test. Our exams were closed book and conducted over zoom with TAs monitoring us. I don't think she was the best professor and I definitely stressed about this class. However, her exam was definitely doable. The exams are for the most part NOT as detailed as her lecture, which is why I recommend studying off the lab manual. I never went to office hours, but I heard that its mostly Q+A style. Overall, this course had a very heavy workload. I spent 8-10 hours each week taking notes for her lecture, 3-5 hours in lab, and an additional 1 hour completing the lab manual/making edits after labs. During midterm/final season it would take me at least 20 hours of studying.
Amazing teacher and good class if you put in the work. Highly recommend going to office hours and asking questions about what muscles are working with what types of movement, and going over general anatomy in the second half of the course. She gave us sheets on what muscles do what movement and you are expected to memorize and understand that for the practicals as well. For the first half of the course, you will be going over all the body systems, which in my opinion, was really difficult. Her tests are hard and I recommend studying in groups and explaining to someone the exact steps each system goes through, where they get their blood supply, etc. Overall, I really enjoyed Professor Khankan and good luck in the course!
Professor Rana is an excellent professor. Her lectures are funny and clear. She does not try to trick you or confuse you. She is so helpful and open outside of class. The material it's hard alone, but Professor khankan does an amazing job making it more understandable. She does bring some concept questions but that's just to make you a better student in the subject. What I could recall from her midterms, it had MC , fill in the blank, and short response. You will have to put in some work and study because there is a lot of material. It's not easy but it's doable. And very interesting with a Dr. Khankan.
Labs are fun too, real cadavers. I had a great TA , Gaby. I'm not sure if she'll TA for this lower div again but I know she TAs for other upper div physci classes and will suggest picking her.
Overall both these ladies know their stuff, are very sweet, very helpful. I would highly recommend them!
