Reviews of professor Eric Gobel

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I love Gobel! No offense to the other people rating him bad, but almost a third of the points for the class are completion and just existing as a student. I recommend going to his office hours and engaging in class because it makes it a lot better to understand the material. He gives a lot of feedback on assignments and you can turn them in twice.

I really liked Professor Gobel. He's very nice and helpful. However his class is a lot of work. There's weekly reading, which annotations are graded and there are topcoat questions due before every class. There are 5 exams plus unit quizzes and the exams are not easy. You definitely have to study. In class participation on topcoat for every class.

I had him for neuro101, specialty lecture and lab. He's so understanding, and wants you to do well. His site is so organized so you always know whats going on, he records all lectures on zoom, and is very straightforward about what's expected of you. Low ratings blame him for being hard; it's the class not him. You think he's hard, change majors...

I will not lie, he is a great professor. He wants you to learn and succeed. But the class/course material IS SO MUCH. Literally homework every single day, a quiz every week and an exam every 2 weeks. If you cannot commit to doing the work, don't take the class. I made this mistake, and ended up not attending for the last two months. A LOT OF WORK!

2 APA papers that are group projects, 5 lab reports, pre-lab quizzes every week (online). Sometimes unclear what he wants grading-wise and assignments can feel like busy work but overall pretty chill. Only issue, he will wait to grade everything until the last week of the semester and is a pretty picky grader.
