Reviews of professor Andrew Cooper

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
A great person to befriend, but not a great professor. Lecturing was cool and all, assignments and exams were fair as he gives 4 'tokens' to redo any question. Midterms 1 & 2 were pretty fair, then he cranked the final difficulty up 10 notches. All your hardwork over 10 weeks and can get destroyed pretty fast.

This class was a boring class but not hard to pass. Be away you do have to pick up a lab kit and you can't take the class if you don't pick it up in a car. He tends to ramble and there is a decent amount of work. He's a nice guy just doesn't really seem to care too much about student feedback or improving his class for an easier time taking it.

Best teacher in centennial college for CNC programming. I recommend everyone to choose him.

Emails are not responsive in a timely manner or ignored completely. Specific grading will even deduct 0.5 just for a small difference from his wording. No curve. Late to class for 1 min will cause u to miss a clicker question and sometimes he only does 2 so you still dont meet 75% threshold to get credit for the day. Situations are excuses here

Please do yourself a favor and do not take BIMM with Cooper. His exams and homework are all free response and he is EXTREMELY picky with the grading. Like, you must write what he wants you to write or you are getting a very low grade. We are now in week 7 and I regret taking the class with him because I know for a fact he will not curve.

Show up to every lecture/ lab since participation can be the difference in a letter grade. Lectures are very organized, and you practice the short answer questions that will be on the exam. 100% recommend doing the study questions for each chapter to boost your grade. If you participate and study, you will get an A.

Bio 200/L. Awesome! Really passionate, knowledgeable, fun and a great teacher. The FRQ on the homework and tests are tricky to get 10/10 because he's a bit specific. But you'll never get less than 5/10.

Whole class loves him. Lectures are very organized, and labs end early most the time. You will end with an A if you participate and are engaged. Literally 30-40% (i forgot) of the grade you recieve is just lecture and lab participation so its hard to not get an A. He is really funny too and is very cool.

Cooper explains the material very well. I have taken bio several times, and found it so boring (and was awful at it) until I took his class. The only downside is that this class took up SO much of my time.
