Awesome teacher! Yeah, it might be a hard class, but what do you expect in a demanding field like science? If you can't hack it, change your major to communications!

Comment:
DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS... he is a horrible teacher, I read the book over and over, got a tutor, studied his notes and it made no difference... tests were very in depth for an introductory class. If your smart you'll stay away from any course offered by this man.

arggghh. the tests...beware the tests. He gives usually two versions, one so hard half the class fails horribly by like 20 points or more....the other half only usually fail by about 10-15 points. So you cacn see how this tends to be a problem.

He is sick! i am an oceaography major and he makes me never want to study the subject ever again. his tests are impossible and everyone fails them. Even though everyone fails them, he still refuses to curve the grades.

Comment:
He is soo hard. He doesn't help us. If he learns your name he will call on you every class. The tests are impossible. The most in depth details are on the tests. if you are an expert going into this class than i would advise it, everybody else stay away from dave thomas. HE doesnt even give Wendys!!

Dave Thomas is the hardest professor I have had in a long time. He is extremely demanding and picky. Warning you now, he will pick out one person a day and bombard them with questions the whole class. The tests are insainly hard. Good luck passing them.

Comment:
He's very knowledgable, but lectures are scattered. It's hard to follow what he is doing and what he wants you to know. When studying for tests you have no idea what he'll ask you; extremely hard to study because you have to study EVERYTHING possible.
