Reviews of professor Chad Nykamp

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Pretty easy grader and as long as you show up to class, pay attention, and get the word done you'll be fine.

The exams have four long essays, five short answers questions, and 30 multiple choice problems. I received my bachelors in accounting before taking this class, and I feel like his test difficulty is a bit insane for an entry-level history course. My tests in 5000-7000 level accounting classes were easier than his.

Class is lecture heavy, In class assignments and homework do a good job of reinforcing material. Review guides do a good job of preparing you for the tests.

Professor Nykamp was great. He explained things concisely and clearly, while also giving out study guides that let you know what was on every test. All the assignments were graded very leniently and he answered questions very well. The only thing I have to mention is that attendance IS mandatory, and adds up to 30% of your grade.

Although the class did require a decent amount of writing, if you follow the instructions, you will get an A. He's a very reasonable grader and I actually learned a lot in his class.

He is amazing! As long as you actually put in a normal amount of effort you will pass. For tests you go over the study guide the class before! You will need to do all assignments cause even missing one will drop your grade a lot! The paper really isnt that bad! The only downside is he pays attention harshly to grammar in everything!
