Really impressed with himself. I was less impressed. I doubt if he has opened a book or research monograph in 20 years. His class was so outdated.

I'm SO sad he's gone!!! I wish he'd come back. I only got to take one class with him, and he is BRILLIANT! He *wants* you to do well and will do whatever it takes to help you out. JV! COME BACK!

John Vohs is one of the Best Professors at UC-Davis. I took 3 of his classes like 8-9 years ago! Before you graduate UCD, you should take his class.

Great professor. His tests are not too hard as long as you attend all his lectures and do the readings.

Comment:

Vohs is wonderful, makes a dry subject engaging with his quirky sense of humor. Very approachable, go see him in office hours. Tests are fine if you do all the reading. Must know material very well otherwise M/C questions are killer

JV rarely teahces this class CMN102 and it was hard. he is a great teacher for 130 but still demands you come to class and read the book. in both classes his tests were hard.

You can gain a tremendous amount of useful info from JV. He is very nice and accessable. I have trouble with his tests. All of them are 25 MC questions at 3 points each and 5 short answers at 5 points each. So if you mess up on the MC you are screwed.

Comment:

Vohs is one of the best professors I've had. His lectures are clear and he's really entertaining. He really wants you to get something out of his class--and if you work hard, you definitely will. p.s Lectures are covered heavily on tests, so go to class.

Although the tests are challenging, this guy is so interesting that I actually enjoyed going to lecture. Also, seriously folks, go to his office hours and chat; take him out for a beer. You'll score points and get a better grade.

He's an interesting teacher. The class is interesting, but his tests are kind of hard. You have to study hard in his class.
