Reviews of professor Lucas Baumgartner

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I was nervous abt this class because I took him for ESMS3703 SPR21 and had to retake it for his refusal to give me participation pts despite me being present. Taking him in person was better. Just show up, group up w/ classmates, go over material and ask him anything you're not understanding. Still in shock I passed w/ a B and thats saying a lot.

He is the worst professor in the world, if you want actually pass don't take him even he is the last person left. His class is very boring so it hard to focus, and also we have 10 quizzes which seem like it nothing but it so hard to pass. For the quizzes you will get no feedback on your answer, and he make you feel stupid for asking question.

All of Luke's classes are difficult. However, he gives you such good feedback on everything you do. He doesn't want anyone to do bad, but he does want everyone to understand the material. If you don't understand the material or show that you don't care to learn the material your grade will reflect that. He always responds to emails

He is a kind and caring professor. His class for me was online bc of COVID. His class was an interesting topic but he was difficult to listen to at times during lectures. He does not hold your attention very well. Participation does matter.

Luke is a very fair professor. He is always willing to help out during office hours, and even helped me 5 minutes  before an exam to ensure I felt confident. It is important to attend class,  if you take it seriously and read the book you will pass. His exams are composed of questions discussed in class and from the quizzes taken. Very helpful.
