I'm so lucky to have him as my professor and advisor. He really cares about his students and works with us to get a good grade. He goes over things many times to make sure we get it. He answers emails quickly and is very detailed in his responses. He is the best professor I've ever had in this university. If you have the chance, take him!!!

Absolutely amazing Professor as well as advisor. I would highly recommend him to take at least once in your time at George Mason. The community engagement part of the class was time consuming but otherwise he's incredible and precise with grading and communicating with students.

Dr. Hurley is a great teacher, and he really tries to make sure you succeed. He allows one make-up exam if you are not satisfied with one grade, and the final is open notes. His lectures are fantastic, and he does not post his notes online, so even though attendance is not mandatory, I would recommend going.

Dr. Hurley was a very good professor. He wants to be sure that every student understands the concepts, and he uses a lot of good examples. He lets you retake one test if you aren't satisfied with the grade received and he makes time for review before tests.

Dr. Hurley is great! This course would be great Junior year. I took it as a senior and wished I had taken it earlier. Participate and do the assignments and you will be grateful that you did when you graduate!

Comment:

The most amazing and inspirational professor I have ever met. Psy300 was one of the harder classes I've taken but he tries his best to give out as much credit as possible so that everyone passes. Gives a huge curve on each exam and gives extra credit assignments for a few point to help boost your grade. Just never skip class and take good notes!

The BEST professor ever. He is so understanding, nice, and fair. He makes the class so easy to pass but also you learn a lot from it. I hope I can choose him to teach me every single class I take at GMU.

If you're a PSY student at Mason, Hurley's a must. He's kind, considerate and so very helpful for his (and other than his) students. One of the best teachers at Mason easily. Take him. Make sure he's your adviser.

this man is a GOD. i had to take psyc300 in the summer and somehow he took what is the most ridiculously hard subject for me (math and stats) and made it into a concept i could understand and i am terrible at math. Dr. Hurley is simply the best and is an incredible asset to GMU

HANDS DOWN the best teacher I've had at GMU. Genuinely cares about his students and is always available for review. The class material wasn't too bad if you attend class and pay attention, three exams and a open note final. Also, plenty of extra credit opportunities. Don't bother with the textbook either because the lectures are good enough.

So attendance for this class is not mandatory but you should go because he does not post the lectures online. 4 tests, which includes the final (not cumulative) and optional make-up exam. The lab has a quiz and homework due each class. You really do not need the book he goes over everything you need to know. He makes stats easy def take him!

Dr. Hurley's lectures aren't mandatory in attendance, but you should absolutely go! His teaching is so much more clear than the textbook. Formulas are provided on the tests, and he's responsive to emails. Great professor!

SIMPLY THE BEST. If you have to wait a semester or two in order to take him for stats then do it.
