Comment:

I took his course in 2015. The exams were extremely difficult for a fundamental psych course. He was also extremely patronizing, telling me once that I "ask too many questions" and that "university professors won't deal with it." Well, as a UC Berkeley graduate today, I never experienced that attitude with the professors at Cal. Glad I dropped.

His lectures are amazing but his grading sucks. His tests are way too hard. We didn't have time to go over the last chapter and he told us a couple days before the final that we have to read it. Barley passed.

Comment:

This class teaches you everything you should know for psych101. Prof. is funny and explains everything clearly with great examples to clarify confusing terms. His tests were difficult with many "trick" questions, so don't cram the night before exams and make sure you understand and don't just memorize. Overall, I enjoyed the class.

Comment:

Professor Duley really knows what he is talking about. I didn't mind at all sitting in lecture for three hours. You do have to go to class because he gives random assignments that go towards your participation. He canceled class a couple times. If you listen to the lectures and read the book you'll be fine. The book is also online.

Comment:

Professor Dulay has a great sense of humor, which makes learning psych interesting, but you have to work really hard for your grade. Be sure to READ THE BOOK, record his lectures, take notes & take advantage of the help he is willing to give (office hours, study guides, etc). As long as you work hard, you will get a good grade.

I took Prof Dulay over the winter and he is wonderful. Psychology itself is just memorization and understanding what you're being taught. having taken this class in a 5 weeks period was pretty tough, but Prof Dulay knows his stuff and knows how to deliver. he makes the lectures very engaging and is very funny!

Comment:

This class is not for the faint-of-heart; you WILL WORK for the grade, and he will through-out anyone even thinking of cheating in his presence. Take full notes in-class and read the Openstax textbook. There is A LOT to study his exams. The exams: This class is university worthy! I cannot say so for most of the others in this campus.

I took his summer class and it was no joke. You have to do your part as a student. You have to come prepared, ready to listen and read the material and put it to heart. He is by far the best prof. I have met and he is very professional. He makes the subject easier and is willing to take a mile for you if you need any help. I highly recommend him!

Comment:

Good professor, but always busy. his job is not only teaching his students but he does so many other things in college , so it will be hard to catch him a have a talk with him. I took his summer season and that was a mistake. He goes over so much material and his tests are kinda hard with multiple choices and finding the errors plus a short essay .

I took Dulay during a 5 week summer course. if you plan on taking him in this short semester, you HAVE to have a sense of urgency. Read and review everyday, memorize your notes until you know all the information and you will get an A in the class. This is no cake walk of a course, but Dulay makes it so enjoyable that its worth your time.

Very nice professor that is there for you. He has a very interesting success story and his lectures are interesting. But I truly wouldn't recommend him for winter or summer sessions. Very difficult.

Comment:

He's the head of the Psychology department at GCC so he's the best at what he does. Amazing lectures, and such an interesting class BUT don't take him over the summer, there's so much material to cover it took blood, sweat and tears to pass with an A. Know everything on the slides, and read the book, which he usually offers a free version of!

Comment:

Professor Dulay is my favorite professor. His lectures are amazing I actually looked forward to going to class every morning. I took him in the summer and wish I took his class for a full semester. You need to read in order to pass don't just count on the lectures. Other than that as long as you do the work and show up to class you will pass.

Mike is a top-notch human being. Lectures are unconventional and so much fun. The thing is... you need to read and also pick apart his syllabus and test structures. Look at the past tests he posts online!!! You can't rely on lectures alone, as he tests you from both the book and in-class content. The class was intense, but oh so rewarding.

Mike is simply awesome.I took him on the winter and wish I would had taken him on a regular semester b/c his lectures are great. You definitely have to read and study . you have to earn your grade but he is very fair. His lectures focus heavily on what you are expected to write on the test essay and the reading on the multiple choice.

I really liked him. His class is super cool. He teaches perfectly. However, his test are a bit hard. I took for short semester, which my work schedule it was hard to catch up with study plan that I had. But I would really like take his class again for a regular semster.
