Loves to teach the old fashioned way. Lecture is about 95% of the class. You will be bored but the material sinks in if you listen.

Boring class. Didn't learn much from this class other than the readings I did through my textbook (in order to pass the class.) He can't hear, is very monotone. I can tell he loves psychology, but ugh.

A lot of people would complain about this professor, but not me! I loved him as a teacher and I loved the class. Yes, he is pretty monotone, but other than that everything is great!

SO boring. Not clear, he can't hear, not helpful. Have not learned one thing all semester. Alway late to class and runs over every day. Only test is midterm and final and is not clear about what might be on them. Doesn't teach anything. AWFUL.

Comment:

I thought this professor was boring as it gets.He doesn't know what he is doing half the time.The only grades that can really count the most are the midterms grades and the final.If you study for those then this class shouldn't be too bad for you.The only advice I can really give is to READ THE BOOK it will help u a lot.

Realy really easy grader. However alot of his classes are super awkward because he focuses alot on sex, like its insane. But really easy, you should get an A or B no problem.

really easy professor. nice guy if you have questions. he gives study guides and you get a 1 question quiz each week from one of the questions on the study guide.so as long as you pass 10 you'll be fine. syudy for the midterm and final cause they're the only tests you have

He is pretty boring most of the time & you have to use your book, but he gives a lot of easy questions during the week & that helps your grade a lot. He also assigns a 5 page paper on a topic of your choice.

THE MOST BORING CLASS EVER! Even though the class is easy as cake, he makes an interesting subject just about as interesting as a wet mop. Only take him if absolutely necessary!

Unfortunately most of my fellow students don't know how to spell his name. This is one dedicated professor and you should take his class is you are interested in learning something about Psychology.

Comment:

I was planning to major in Psych before I took his class. It was difficult not to fall asleep constantly and Bracken has no idea how to make the material interesting. He teaches from powerpoint presentations and though he is a nice person, he can't make the class a good experience.

dont miss class, study more than just the review sheets because those are not what is on the quiz. and no matter how bad it looks you will probably do great in the end.
