If you take Master Murphys class be prepared to do a ton of homework. He does not do your work for you!!!!!!!!! He makes you do the work over and over and over!!! Until your up to USCG level. I hope to see him open a Third Mate STCW School in Boston! Boston needs a Marine Navigation School. It's a shame Boston does not have such a school.

Professors who use fear and intimidation are detrimental to their schools. I imagine in this age of parental complaints he has calmed some. Regardless, his is a retirement that will bring joy to many.

Took this class over the summer with him. The funniest teacher i've ever had, oh man. Good class too, some of it was tedious ahemm the definitions, didn't need to be written out again, kinda pointless. Tests were mad easy came directly from the coasties book. Passed w/a A as an MSEP major, took the class as an elective.

Murphy's goal is to get you to pass the costies, and he'll do everything in his power to do that. You can't really fault him.

Makes money off of 'test taking'. An arrogant man who brings a lot of joy when he leaves the room.

Don't believe the hype. Think of those who've gone before you who have passed coasties. He'll put in the time with you, but it isn't always needed.
