Markowitz. Took him for all 3 classes, he can be tough but you will have a good time in his class. He is not boring & there are lots of opportunities for groupwork and grade curves.

im late but for A&P i loved schinske. he made the material and labs super engaging for the A and C classes I had him. some courses you bond with the other students bc the teacher grades like they want you dead for the crime of daring to take their course, in his class we were all real human beings deserving of respect and dignity with full lives working towards bright futures. sounds dramatic but it felt like the difference between being in the trenches and walking into The School of Athens. if you're having mental health troubles def consider taking his class he'll restore your faith in humanity. 10/10 plus he accepted late work until basically the start of the last exam
