Reviews of professor Brandon Lewis

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
I took Lewis for 8 week course and let me tell you something, if you need this course just to graduate, don't take it. I managed to pass a class without studying for 8 hours like he told us to in order to pass, but it manageable. Grades 4 tests and final + discussions. Pretty hard on tests, can't google so have to watch lectures

The worst and laziest teacher I have ever had. stay away if you want to actually learn and get a good grade. Sure theres not a lot of homework. But he should be at least able to make his lectures literate and understandable. The test questions are so vague they could have multiple answers, and you cant go back to the previous questions. I hate it

I took this course as an 8 week course so you're graded by very few things. Midterms (3) are worth 48% of your grade and final is 24%. Even if you do good on your midterm and get a lower score the second time, your grade drops exponentially. Wished they offered extra credit. Lectures are long but if you're interested in the topic it's not too bad.

The quizzes are extremely hard, you need to remember the tiniest of details.

Professor Lewis is the Gordon Ramsay of Anthropology. He is a no excuses or special consideration type of professor. You get the grade you deserve. Due dates are final. If you don't want to try, don't take him. You won't do well. If you are interested in Anthro and will take extensive notes, watch his lectures, take him! Difficult but doable

I enjoyed his lectures very much, cares immensely about his students but is super strict when it comes to deadlines, he will NOT ACCEPT LATE WORK AT ALL, so you better be on top of it. He has such a passion for what he does and it shows, he is so weirdly charismatic and that really drew me into his lectures. 10/10

I took the 8 week course and it honestly wasnt that bad, you just need to watch his lectures and take notes. Theres no homework, but pls watch the lectures they really do help and the tests are a bit complex. If you studied enough youll be able to pass with flying colors. tbh I never used the book he wanted us to buy

I read most reviews about him here before taking his class, so I expected a worse experience so much. But, it was not that bad as long as you take really good notes, like writing everything he said in his lecture. 
 I strongly recommend doing your assignments by each deadline. 
It's a very cruel class, but your effort will be graded.

Honestly, I feel like his lectures are monotonous. He rambles a lot, making the lecture videos super long and boring. If you are not a good test taker, don't take this class. It takes so much time out of the day to sift through his nonsense to even find what would remotely be on the test. He words everything in the hardest way possible.
