Comment:

This class will seperate those who want it and those that don't. Be ready to put in the work. If you aren't willing you shouldn't be practicing medicine. This isn't some hobby class or "filling a requirement". Not to be cliche but you are training to save lives. Just think nursing school condensed.

Comment:

If you like "Dr.Evil" you will love Goold. I love his lectures, they are very colorful and entertaining. He doesn't sugar coat anything and can be very intimidating, but he has to be that way because he's weeding out the "Pi-geagles"!! I tell my children about his lectures and my interactions with him in class, they laugh their heads off!

Comment:

It is a hard class so plan ahead. Tests are all essay with some additional multiple choice. He is a Political expert not an EMT or Medic. Seek outside help and have a backup plan. You will only get a straight answer when he wants to give you one.

Comment:

Certainly is God of the paramedic program. But if I had to pick the best instructor from the whole dept it would absolutely be him. Yea, he does act like a know it all, kind of ignorant etc, but that's because he is. Comes across as a hard ass but is really a nice guy in person and will go out of his way to help you.

Comment:

Ok Goold is intimidating and demanding but he knows his stuff and he will always tell it to you like it is. One reviewer mentioned that he thinks he's god... well he is the head of the department so he kinda is god of pmed. Oh and he's not kidding when he says he will find out if you misbehave while in uniform.

he is not going to sugar coat anything for you. if you mess up he will tell you and make sure that you know it. but he wants you to be successful and he is a hard teacher on purpose. listen to his advise.
