Reviews of professor Neal Johnson

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This statistics course was very interesting and applicable to anyone who will be using excel for their careers. Tests are taken with excel. Pros: quickly digestible material if you use Khan and EXcel Is Fun. Cons: that textbook is HORRIBLE at a certain point it stops showing the work to get to solutions. He does provide interesting grading visuals.

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
The textbook is horrendous. His notes are horrendous. There are some topics you can not understand from reading his notes. He has test questions that he does not talk about. He makes it a point to make the homework and exams difficult so his students fail. If a student emails him, he will make sure you feel incompetent for asking. No help.

Neal Johnson is a good professor teaching a difficult class. There is not a ton of reading, but he creates "micro lessons" each module and there is weekly homework, both of which are critical to your success! The tests are difficult but if you did the lessons and homework properly, and you study, you will be ok. He curves test grades, thankfully.

He expects you to know everything when he teaches nothing. He will not help you understand concepts if you ask for help. Everybody fails his exams. He curves every grade to make sure students pass instead of helping students understand the material from the beginning. There are no lectures in this class forcing you to self teach. Good luck!

You will need to read the book, no lectures. Group discussions were easy and didn't require much effort because you are just applying what you learned from the book to the question presented, no citing sources or research needed. I had some really stupid people in my class, so despite difficult tests it was an easy A because of the way he curves.

I loved this class! I learned a lot and it wasn't easy. It was worth it to me. Dr. Johnson answered my emails when I had questions. His lectures and reading material was thorough. I found the class very straight forward. This has been one of my favorite classes and professors so far in my MBA program.

I sincerely hope Neal improved his teaching tactics. When I took this class it was horrendous; after 10 years of ed and cert in the healthcare field and 40 years on earth I never felt so discouraged in my life. He did not teach concepts or offer support. If you are not an Excel expert or economics major, if you are actually MHA clinical,good luck.

Tests were hard be he curved based on what everyone got. His homework was just discussion posts every week. Easy!

There are 12 assignments (worth 4 Pts each) and 2 tests (worth 26 Pts each). The lowest assignment grade is raised to a 4. The exams are curved. Feedback is useful and if you do the micro lessons the assignments are average level of difficulty. I would take again.
