Comment:

Seriously though, his online lessons are pratically useless. There are no online lessons at all and we were just told to read the textbook. He gives out a 30% paper which requires you to write a 15 pages marketing report which he gave almost 0 guidelines for. It is almost impossible to do and I honestly learnt nothing from this module.

Comment:

Reg is one of the most polarizing people at UNB. He is incredibly knowledgeable in his field, and make a point of getting to know each of his students names. He asks his students lots of questions during the lectures and will make you look dumb if you are not prepared. Some people don't like him, but he is one of my favourite profs in the faculty.

Comment:

Reg is a great prof who gives great lectures (lots of stories). If you put in the work and attend he will be fair with you. A tough grader on tests but he takes into account your participation. Be prepared for class because he will call on you to answer a question.

Comment:

Although he is certainly a true expert in his field, his grading is brutal and he throws tough questions at the class. Beware that he may confuse what he said in another class (or section) with yours. Unclear deadlines, assignment details, and he doesn't use e-learning. Don't take his class if you have a heavy courseload.

Comment:

Have the pre-requisite. Read the articles before class and be prepared to answer questions. Lectures are fast paced but informative so take notes. Assignments must be timely and done according to specified guidelines. Exams are fair once you have done the required readings. Participate & attend classes regularly. Accessible for help.

Comment:

Worked my butt off for the B+. Don't expect to have your hand held through this one. Reg expects you to know the material inside and out. He'll call on anyone at any moment, 90% of the time you will be wrong. He will continuously question your presentations, shutting you down when wrong. He is an easy presentation marker but a hellish test marker.

Comment:

Reg is a tough prof. You need to read your textbook before going to class or he makes you feel stupid. No matter how you answer a question, it will always be wrong. He likes to hear himself talk, and spends time telling irrelevant stories. During presentations, he will interrupt you mid-sentence. Read the textbook, class notes are not enough.

Comment:

He gets to be confusing in class and goes fast. He will tell you to stop him if you don't understand, but if you actually do it, he'll look at you like you're the dumbest thing on earth. He calls out on students, so pay attention. Tests are the insanely hard and too long.

DO YOUR READINGS OR HE WILL MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE AN IDIOT. Very engaging class, you will learn a lot. Always pay attention, he will ask questions at random. Middy/final are hard but fair,& very much textbook based! Can come off a litte arrogant but is overall a nice prof, respect him and he will respect you.

Probably my favorite prof at UNB. Had him for Principles of Marketing and M. Research. He's not afraid to pick you out so I hated missing class. Relates to students and you learn so much! Best part is he is easy to understand.

By far my favourite prof at UNB! I took two classes with him (marketing management and marketing research). He was one of the most challenging profs I've had but I learned the most from him. Come to class prepared because he'll call you out all the time. Take really detailed notes too and you'll do great! :)

There's going to be times where you will be very stressed out with him because he isn't the most helpful prof. He is a tough prof but you end up learning a lot. Don't expect an easy high grade.

Comment:

Sheppard's exams are not a fair assessment of classroom learning. The exam used the textbook, which was never used in class. The final was 10 essay questions over 80 minutes: no time to think about answers; he expects you to be a machine when writing his exams. You should expect that his mark will drop your GPA. Avoid if you plan to do a masters.

Professor Sheppard is very tough, and expects EVERYONE to work hard. There is no free ride, and he is up front about that with you. If all my profs were as accomodating and helpful, my program would be a total joy!! Take him!!!!!!

Comment:

I tried to rate hime and it result was four startsfor some reason so I will try again. he is quite full of himself and a very hard maker on top of that.I originally signed up for marketing with him but he eventually drove me to the point where I dropped the course. I took it with nevers which by the way is a much better professor.holeee
