Reviews of professor Chris Dragos

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Caring and intelligent prof - knows material very well. However he grades very hard. I've taken many PHLs (minoring in it) and this was my lowest mark out of all. Lectures were engaging and thought provoking, but lacked class discussion and interaction. Kind of one-sided and too opinionated at times. (Participation, two class papers + final paper!)

I had this professor for my PHL708 class and found it to be very easy to take - he records his lectures and is accessible out of class. Chris' lectures are quite long, so it is important to take breaks every 30 min - hour. Assignments are relatively easy as well, 2 precis, 5 short exercises and 1 term paper: there is no final exam.

Dr. Dragos clearly has a passion for what he does and makes his lectures interesting. However, throughout the entire semester with him, I don't think I got a full mark on anything even though I prepared well for each test. There is no final but there is a final essay (I do recommend putting some time in and ask for help when in need)

Super good prof, highly recommend him! Explains concepts clearly and easy to grasp. Interesting course. He's nice and has a good personality. Pre-recorded lectures were used to teach during COVID so that was really good; not many profs did that.
