Reviews of professor Colin Macleod

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
While the concepts taught in class are fairly intuitive, the marking scheme is ridiculous. The questions asked on the midterm were very general, but required very specific answers, that often arent even asked for in the question. The midterm 1 average was 46%, and is not representative of the amount of time put into the course.

He's helpful, and he's passionate about his area of expertise. That's the good. The bad: Nightmare exams, tons of readings from a terribly written (mandatory) textbook, unclear and jumbled lectures, material cram, and lecture slides require a PhD to decipher. The whatever: decently spaced out midterms and accessible office hours.
