Comment:
I wish I would have known about this website earlier because it would have prevented me from taking this class. He is a very hard grader. I received a C on an essay which surprised me because I usually always receive between an A+ to a B+. This was my first C. Even his tests I thought were unfair.

I'm going to be honest here. Northcutt is a very very smart guy. He knows his stuff well, and makes an interesting lecture. I do believe he could try to be a bit more social though. As for his grading, it is ridiculous... I don't know why he needs to make things so difficult. He made us remember random presidential cabinet members. HARD CLASS

Very difficult grader. I remember before he got to class we all talked about are grades and 3 outta probably 25 had A's. I think I got a C+ on the paper, my lowest grade in college at that point.

Class itself isn't bad, tests are awful. He wants to know things like popultion of the soviet union in 1950 and how many people died in vietnam in 1970. Its ridiculous. History should be thematic, not an almanac!

Brilliant man with the personality of a wet mop. He is also very unapproachable. Dr N is also a very hard grader. I if you can get away with never having to step into his classroom DO IT!

DO not Take it if you can help it. He was very unwilling to help me, and he did not seem to care about the students.

contimplating wether to take this dude's class or not, i found the reviews mind changing (especially the on comparing him to a wiener).I actually had northcutt for a french revolution class, and dropped it after 2 classes because he wouldn't let us wear our hats in his sacred learning environment.

honstly one of the best teachers NU has. He really knows his stuff. He comes off as a little unapproachable, but if you ask him for help he'll give it. He's a published author and so very concerned about paper-writing.
