Comment:
Cool guy. Slides have a lot of extra information, which is good sometimes but can cloud the important points. Tests weren't particularly hard. The class wasn't much work overall. Fun class.

Comment:
It's hard to know what to study and what's important because his lectures are collections of tons of slides with random pictures of Tiger Woods thrown in. The textbook is never used. The class isn't a lot of work but if you make a small mistake on a test it can cost you bigtime.

Comment:
alot of his questions on tests seemed to be totally random...but he does give alot of opportunities to make up for doing badly on one test. i didnt like how every single topic we covered related back to dental implants. he would spend at least 30 minutes of every class talking about dental implants. get another example!

Comment:
I agree with the ambiguous question thing. However, he always tells you exactly what is on the tests, and he gives tons of extra credit and makeup (take-home) exams if people do poorly the first time around.

Comment:
Homework and test questions are ambiguous, and I am often left wondering what the question is actually asking. Dr. Brunski is a great lecturer, but the problems we work in class are either ridiculously simple or impossibly hard.

Comment:
Although Brunski can be misinterpreted as uninterested, the man is a good teacher who learns from his students. As a matter of fact, most of his examples come from students. I found out five years after I graduated that Dr. Brunski still uses a Jaw Model I constructed (out of cherry wood, mind you) to demonstrate loading conditions of dental implants to students in IEA. I believe a good professor learns from their students. Dr. Brunski is proud of what his students learn and show to him.
