Reviews of professor Daniel Barringer

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Honestly one of my most favorite professors at TXST. He takes the time to teach you, but also makes you not hate life while doing it. The tests don't have reviews, but if you show up to zoom lectures you won't need a review because tests were open notes. (at least during COVID)

Barringer was a great professor and doesn't get enough credit based on his rating. Lectures are example based where you get to practice what is being taught in class. Tests are half individual and half group. The group portion is obviously tougher but if you understand concepts from in class examples, you should have no problem excelling.

Terrible. Does not teach.

Considering most people who take his class aren't looking to be astronomers, you would think he would go into more depth with subjects. The book doesn't help with any exams and there's no review for any of his exams. You have to pretty much study everything and hope you studied the right thing. If you're a non-science major, DO NOT take this class

Prof. Barringer is a great professor. Pros: No textbook needed, he will take his time to explain important concepts, he will take the time to make sure you understand practice problems. Cons: spends too much time in class on each practice problem, the HW wasn't helpful for tests. Overall I liked him as a professor but a lot of class time wasted
