Reviews of professor Sean Putnam

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
This is probably the worst class I have ever taken. There are 8 online quizzes that are impossible, you will look at the lecture slides, the book, and online and still be unable to find the answers. The exams are also very challenging. There are no other opportunities to earn points besides the quizzes and exams, so it's hard to get a good grade.

Awful Professor. Not helpful, extremely challenging quizzes and exams. The class average was super low and he offered 2 bonus points that werent even extra credit.

I took FITN-100E, Scuba Diving, (Not BIOC 401) and it was a great experience. Sean is willing to work on the skills with you and give helpful tips to make you feel more comfortable in the water!

Worst professor I have ever had. Exams are extremely hard, almost impossible to finish in the time frame. I often review quizzes after and his TAs dont know the answers to some of the questions. Takes weeks to grade exams. He has no office hours and he doesnt care. Grade is all exams/quizzes, no extra credit. Take with anyone else

I am incredibly frustrated by this class. Putnam is one of the most frustrating professors I've ever had. He does not attempt to help his struggling students. He grades exams incredibly hard and his feedback does not make sense. He will not share exam averages. The quizzes are impossible, you can study and never get a good grade on them. Beware.
