Comment:

Dr. Bradley is a really laid back professor & his class is really easy if you show up & take halfway decent notes. He doesnt like to be asked questions & even discourages contact outside of class, but as long as you listen to his lectures, he is pretty clear. Sometimes his lectures stray, but he always hits all the info you need for the tests!

Comment:

There are 4 tests and an optional final if you want to raise your self a letter grade. Just go to class, take good notes, and read over them a couple times before a test. He is rude when you ask questions so just don't do it. Easy A if you aren't stupid. Don't need the textbook, do not buy it!!!

Comment:

If you go to class and pay attention, you will get an A. I literally got a 100 on one of the tests and all I did was read over my notes from his lectures once or twice. He's extremely clear about what he will test you on. That being said, he does rub some people the wrong way. If you are easily offended I might not take him. He was great for me!

Comment:

At first I was nervous because he just lectures, but then I realized that he literally lays it all out for you. He'll repeat the important things and he's really funny throughout. Most of his lecture he just tells stories so it's not hard to follow - tests are word for word what he says in class. Extremely easy A and you don't need the textbook.

Comment:

Bradley is a fantastic professor, but he's definitely not someone I'd want to hang around in my free time. He's self absorbed, self-righteous, and condescending, though he does a very good job of not letting that dominate his lectures. His lectures are great, but watch out because he enjoys humiliating students.

Comment:

I liked Bradley as a guy, but not as a professor. His grading system is odd and I am not a fan of his teaching style. If you do not like teachers who straight lecture without any other material (Ex. power points) do not take this class.

Comment:

He's the nicest professor in the world and really seems to care about his students. His lectures are always funny and interesting because he uses lots of examples. Tests are pretty clear - cut as long as you take good notes during all his lectures and study well. You don't need the textbook.

GREAT TEACHER! Great class!!! only down side is that there are no power points so his tests are from lecture notes! But his lectures are awesome and straight forward. A lot of common sense stuff as well! He grades on a point scale which i do not like but his tests are not hard at all! I would absolutely take him again

Comment:

He is hilarious. He doesn't use a powerpoint or any type of display, the class is just listening as he lectures. He is very entertaining and clear. I really enjoyed his lectures because I was actually entertained for once. His exams are average if you study and attend class. If you take it upon yourself to read the chapters it's a guaranteed "A."

Wonderful teacher and person. I loved his class and so I purposely took another that he was teaching. He is very helpful. One of my most memorable teachers from UNCW!

Comment:

attendance isn't necessary so u can skip as many classes as u want but beware to show up one week before the exam since he will change the exam date. hard to get an A and some questions (especially in the optional final) he doesn't even talked about. just do your best in the first four quiz and don't expect the optional final can boost your grade

Comment:

not a boring class. funny. he brings us candy on the last day. easy B, but very hard to get an A. you don't NEED the book but me and a friend found the book for $8 and shared.. so for $4 it was really nice to have. it feels so easy when you're studying it and then you get the test and suddenly it's very difficult.. don't underestimate the course.

I ended this course very disappointed. He only lectures and then you have tests. Half of his tests he never even talked about. He's a really nice man but good luck with his teaching style or lack thereof.

Super easy class as long as you take notes. He lectures right off of the test most of the time. Don't need textbook. Doesn't take attendance. Study for the tests and they're easy. Funny guy.

Comment:

I'm a psych major, but I found his class a little useless. He is a fun teacher, but I don't think I learned much. Don't buy the textbook, you won't use it. He doesn't take attendance, but you need to go if you want to pass the class. He goes over everything on the tests, which is great. He's funny, but he likes to humiliate students.

Comment:

He teaches by lecturing the class without writing anything on the board so taking notes and attending his classes are VERY important. The material he covers isn't hard but you still need to study for the tests because it is somewhat difficult to get an A. Overall his lectures are interesting. Also don't need the textbook.

Comment:

I took this guy over summer. His class lasted only for like an hour of the two hours we were supposed to be in class. 25% of his lectures were about relevant material and then 75% were life lessons that didn't matter. He's not very elaborate. He uses no visual aids. I didn't learn anything in his class.

Comment:

Although I found this professor to be a bit self absorbed and that he loves to ask rhetorical questions to the class all the time. I still found him to be a good professor. As long as you take good notes and take the time to go over them you will be fine. Also, just keep your mouth shut in his class. Its his show.

Comment:

NURSING MAJORS: Although his tests are pretty easy, you still miss a few on every test. You are only allowed to miss 20 questions out of 209 to get an A. Obviously he doesn't know how to calculate an average because according to his scale 178 points is a C, but it's actually a solid B. He always has to be right too, even if he is clearly wrong.
