Reviews of professor Mark Mayer

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
It is clear his primary concern is doing research for the university rather than teaching any of his classes. Most of your time in this class will be spent listening to him talk about his personal life (he loves to talk about himself) and then you will be learning on your own time from an online textbook with about 3 busy work assignments a week.

He's a Buffalo sports fan, that explains everything.

Professor Mayer is a very knowledgable professor and a great guy. However, the material he is teaching is difficult. He is a very caring guy. He makes you work to find the answer to a question because it is a research class. Giving us the answer right away takes away from the whole point of the class. While class is difficult, he makes it bearable.

Mayer was a good professor for the subject and really knew what he was doing. He was a bit disorganized with Canvas which made it difficult to know what is due, when and how much its worth. Tests were challenging but he gives partial credit. Overall, great professor and would recommend.
