Reviews of professor Brian Pietrosimone

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Pietrosimone was INCREDIBLE! His lectures are SO engaging and he takes the time to explain complex concepts. Quizzes/exams correlate directly with lectures. Your grade is based on 3 quizzes and 3 exams with one optional extra credit assignment. He provides everything needed to be successful in this class! I highly recommend taking 380 with him.

I took 265. This course is just a ton of information. While attendance isn't necessary, you'll fully understand the course if you attend class. Lectures are not recorded. Brian is a wonderful person and he truly cares about his students.

Brian relies heavily on the lectures that are posted online at the beginning of the semester, so attendance is close to pointless. However, he may sometimes give additional information during class. Be sure to memorize all of the muscles for the class, and the rest of the information for tests and quizzes can be found in the lectures.

Brian is an awesome professor who makes lectures very engaging and fun. They're not necessarily required for you to go since he bases class off a powerpoint, but he says interesting thing and ways to help remember certain content. Grind out flashcards and online practice quizzes for a relatively easy A.

Brian is one of the best profs at UNC hands down. He is hilarious, super approachable, and while his tests can be tough, they are designed to make sure you learn!! Very doable if you study his PowerPoints closely. Had him for 175 and 380 and loved him both times, but 380 is even better because it's a smaller class. Go to his class and LEARN! :)
