Reviews of professor Brian Pietrosimone

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Pietrosimone has been the BEST professor I have had at UNC so far! He uses relatable and funny examples in class to help understand the tough material. His exams are very fair and he never tries to trick you with wording. He also gives you opportunities for extra credit. I would highly recommend taking a class with him if you can!

He's the most likeable EXSS professor. And that says a lot because most EXSS professors are. Exams and quizzes are the only grade, and his TA who makes the questions doesn't make them well (we still love you TA). Other than that, 11/10 class. He makes such a boring topic funny and enjoyable.

Dr. Pietrosimone was amazing i definitely recommend him. He actually wants you to learn the material. He will answer all questions no matter how "stupid" you think they are. He taught 265. The bad thing was that grades were only quizzes and exams. He did offer a chance for extra credit.

My favorite EXSS professor so far. Lectures are super interesting, Brian's hilarious, and he wants you to learn. Going to office hours with my TA saved me bc there's so much content and your grade is only the exams- which are pretty tricky (and sometimes poorly worded). Attendance isn't mandatory but I highly suggest going. Deff take Brian's class!

This class is super interesting and Brians lectures were super good (hes funny). The content isnt too bad, but the exams are straightforward yet tricky at the same time (?). The only grades are tests and quizzes, with the tests/final making up probably 90% of your grade. No curves, EC if you write a paper or participate in a research project.
