Reviews of professor Guy Proulx

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Amazing professor. Very knowledgeable and passionate. His tests are very fair and he takes your effort into account. I found lectures and PPT to be enough to do well, as he is very thorough. I got sick during finals due to stress and performed poorly on the exam but I still ended up with a B+ b/c he considered my efforts during the year!

Despite what has been told to you, in order to pass this class, you have to follow the book. The lectures help SOMETIMES, but exams are 80% book based. He's really an energetic guy, who makes you excited about the topic, but it's disappointing that students who take the time to actively attend the 9am class don't really have an advantage.

This was the best class I've ever taken and it changed all my life plans. Dr. Proulx is an inspiration. He is a tough marker, but a kind man with huge passion for people. It was a big challenge for me (I have no science background), and it was tons of reading, but it was enormously rewarding. I'm grateful every day I took this class, and met him.

While he is a funny and interesting professor, he was confusing as hell! His exams did not match to the text and he would ask the most minute RANDOM things on the exams. He played favourites with his thesis students. BUT that being said he was helpful most of the time when asked -- terrible lecturer though!

Dr. Proulx is an inspiring professor. He makes class interesting by bringing real life experience from Baycrest into the lectures.He's tough, but it's so worth it to take his classes.
