Reviews of professor Jeffrey Rachlinski

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Really great professor but not great on Zoom. Be prepared to do a lot of readings and there are cold calls in class as well.

Rachlinski is a funny guy, but his lectures are confusing. I found myself having to lean heavily on the readings to understand concepts because of this. I think that he needs to slow down and keep focused. He also seemed to be a more intense question-maker for the tests than Chatrchyan (co-prof), treating undergrads like actual law students.

Professor Rachlinski is a very passionate and knowledgable professor. He goes off on tangents sometimes, but they're related and very interesting!

One of the most interesting classes Ive taken at Cornell. It is essential that you thoroughly do all reading homework because he cold calls students in class. This can be stressful at first but is honestly not a huge deal. I honestly never felt bored, and as long as you show up to every class (attendance is huge) and take good notes you'll do well

Generally good prof but not great for zoom classes... Lots of cold calls. Lots of reading.
