Tough, but fair - hey, are you in school to learn or to be babysat ? Don't take this class if you're looking for an easy mark. Do take this class if you want to learn something.

HE REALLY SHOULD REALIZE THAT HOW STUDENTS THINK HE IS. COURSES FROM HIM WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH INTERESTING AND HELPUL IF THERE WAS SOMEONE WHO CAN SUB FOR HIM. REALLY TURNING-OFF KIND OF PROF. FOR NORMAL STUDENTS. FACT IS FACT.

Comment:

I have never felt the need to rate a professor before, but I have to say this is the most disorganized and disappointing course I have ever taken. No syllabus, pointless lectures, unclear on expectations, wayyy too much work in labs, etc. etc. Stay away at all costs.

Comment:

The worst prof I've ever seen. He's got a couple of PhDs, but that does not mean he can teach. The text book and his lecture notes are useless. Labs and lectures dont coincide...basically, you have to learn on your own during lab.

For someone as arrogant and non-interested as him, I'm surprised he's still allowed to teach here.

Terrible, boring, difficult... This prof makes fun of students who ask questions, not very helpful, would not recommend this class to anyone! Labs are very time consuming- many early morning hours in the lab!
