No, the word 'student' is a noun, a word for a person.A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence.Example: A fellow student let me borrow the book. He said I could return it on Monday. (the pronoun 'he' takes the place of the noun 'student' in the second sentence.

The subject of a sentence is what the sentence is about, the verb tells what the subject is or does. The subject can be a noun or a pronoun; a pronoun takes the place of a noun. A subject pronoun is a pronoun that can only be used for the subject of a sentence, a differnt pronoun must be used for the object(s) of the sentence or phrase. Examples: John is a student. (John is a noun and the subject of the sentence) He is student. (the pronoun he takes the place of the noun as the subject) My house is blue, it has a yellow flowers by the steps. (the pronoun it takes the place of the noun house as subject) The subject pronouns are: I, we, he, she, they. The object pronouns are: me, us, him, her, them. Pronouns that can be subject or object: you, it.
No, a pronoun does not take the place of a verb at all; a pronoun takes the place of a noun or pronoun (called an antecedent) when the pronoun is the object in a sentence. Examples:You may borrow the book, I think you will enjoy it. (The noun 'book' is the antecedent for the object pronoun 'it'.)He is a student at the university, I miss him when he is away. (The pronoun 'he' is the antecedent for the object pronoun 'him')
"Students in online classes have to be organized to keep up with their assignments."The pronoun in the sentence is 'their', a possessive adjective. The pronoun 'their' describes something that belongs to two or more people, 'assignments'.An antecedent is the noun or pronoun that the pronoun replaces. The pronoun 'their' is taking the place of a noun for two or more people, the plural noun 'students'.The noun 'classes' is not the antecedent because the assignments do not belong to the classes, the assignments belong to the students (the student's assignments; their assignments).
The pronoun reference is NOT unclear. It is easy to see that the pronoun 'he' refers to the only noun for a person in the sentence 'Mark'.An unclear pronoun reference occurs when it can't be determined which person is referred to; for example:Brothers Mark and Jim are good students, helpful volunteers, and great athletes, which is why he received the scholarship.Which brother received the scholarship? It's not clear.
No, the word 'Susan' is a noun, a proper noun, the name of a person. A proper noun must be capitalized.A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence. For example:Susan is my sister. She is a student at the university. (The pronoun 'she' takes the place of the noun 'Susan' in the second sentence.)
