Check out the ego on this guy! Likes to put students on the spot with intimidation as a primary technique in a class of 200. Long exam but pretty fair.

Comment:
I HATED THE POWERPOINTS....he really should have given us notes. Even if he asked if we had questions, it was pretty intimidating to ask because he doesn't seem so helpful in lectures. However, he did give some hints on the exam.................but LONG.

Notes are not helpful. Exams are soo tricky. Fun lecture, but fun is one thing and helpful is another.

Makes lectures fun, but the notes aren't very detailed or helpful. Rely on the textbook for information, not on the notes. Exams are difficult.

Exams are really long, and quite hard, but the class is totally worth it. Farrell's lectures are amazing. Best lecturer I've had yet!

Great lectures. He really knows what he is talking about. Expect to learn a lot, but don't expect easy tests. Tests require a high level of thinking.. give your brain some exercise!
