Reviews of professor Bryan Kinney

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
he is such a nice guy. his lectures can sometimes get off topic but he is funny and tells a lot of anecdotes. if you read the textbook or even just have it, the exams are easy (they are open book). weekly participation can be annoying but is overall easy marks.

This class was extremely easy. The exams were open book and you had a whole week to do them once they were posted. Lectures said the same things that were in the textbook.

Bryan is a hilarious proff in both announcements and lecs, if you had serious lecs all day his sarcastic humour is needed. Yeah, he goes off-topic a bit but most of the time they are actually extensive examples, you just gotta pay attention. PLIS interact/ask questions in lec, there are only 2/3 ppl normally that appear to be even looking up.

I felt bad for the guy because he seemed really sweet but unless you want to hear about his cat or how he failed at being a fighter pilot I wouldn't recommend lectures. Exams are literally word for word from the textbook. Packback is a breeze. Definitely a GPA booster if nothing else.

He is a super easy professor, but his lectures are hard to listen to; he seems to go off-topic a lot. Participation in tutorials is important. Exams are easy and open-book, and you get a week to do them!

He was very disorganized throughout the entire semester. He always canceled lectures last minute, and when he didn't it was hard to stay engaged. However, the mid terms and final were open book and take home, so you could work in groups if you wanted. It was easy to get a good grade, but the lectures were unbearable if they happened at all.

This class is a very easy grade if you are willing to put in a little effort. However, the lectures are painfully boring and Kinney is not engaging. Midterm and final are online, but insanely long and textbook specific, even though textbook is incorrect and outdated. Also, my TA did not show up for a single tutorial.

he was a super nice guy but showed up for like half the classes, You should definitely take 101 with him even though he doesn't show up and has bad lectures because it's so easy. Easily the worst lectures I've ever had and you can and should just read the textbooks instead.

This professor is a very sweet person who understands his students needs. He is considerate of us and it is not going unnoticed. Pretty easy course material, just make sure to read the textbook. Amazing guy 10/10 would take it again
