Reviews of professor Adam Norris

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Dr. Norris seems very chill and adds humor to his lectures, which would otherwise be incredibly bland. Much better than the prof we had for the first half of the semester! He definitely expects students to learn the material and his homework and exams reflect that--they can sometimes be confusing. If you study enough though, it's a manageable A.

Be prepared for a lot of select all that apply questions that if you get a part wrong you get 0/5 points for the question. Class averages on tests are extremely low and on this years final was a 64. You will learn a lot and the professors are not bad however the tests and the test material are extremely difficult.

Dr. Norris is easy to reach and helpful, but the exams should be reworked. Each exam only has 25 questions with several "select all that apply" questions, so missing 1-2 questions can significantly hurt your grade. For each exam, review every single slide, do the practice problems in the textbook, and then make your own review.

I enjoyed Dr. Norris' half of the class a lot more than Dr. Jones, as I found him engaging during class and it felt like he cared about us actually understanding the concepts. He is also more approachable and will explain things to you. That being said, no matter how much you study, exams will be very difficult mostly due to select all that apply
