Comment:

Fair grader. Exams can be a little difficult, but I managed to get an A in the class. He is still very passionate about his lecture. He likes to ask the students questions, and gets them involved in the lecture. Labs are not too difficult, but not easy either. Depends on the lab instructor perhaps. I would take another class with Dr. Gobalet.

This professor is awesome. You have to work hard in his class; it does take a certain level of intelligence to get an A. If you're not prepared to work hard dont take his class, but then why are you in college?

Comment:

He is the hardest teacher i've ever had. He tends to favor students. Although i ended up with a B in the class I had to work for that B. He's very close-minded. I wouldn't recommend taking him for a class

This teacher's great. You can't get through his classes without studying though. People looking for an easy grade or that think they're still in grade school are in for a shock. You always know what is expected on tests so as long as you know everything, you're fine.

Comment:

A challenging professor, lectures were off topic sometimes, but at least they were interesting. I learned a lot, and those who think it was too hard may have not studied enough, because his lectures are basically from the text.

Very funny professor, he goes to a lot of tangents in his lecture, very amusing, but sometimes, gets out of hand losing lecture time. Have bias in grading...

Comment:

He said that he would help some of the students pass and convinced us to stay in the class if he saw us trying our hardest. He said that to all 20 of us that got C-'s or worse. Thanks Gobalet. Not very helpful at all!

Comment:

He is not that helpful in terms of teaching and is a very disorganized person! The student has to make the effort on himself or herself to do nothing but STUDY on their own and try to make sense of his confusing lecture notes or else there you don't pass!
