Reviews of professor David Chirinos

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This professor was horrible. Test were nearly impossible no matter what you study. He gives you a attendance and participation grade at the end of the semester and will give you a bad grade on it even if your attendance is very good. Make sure you raise your hand in class because apparently the group participation every day doesn't matter.

He genuinely cares about his students and really wants them to understand the content. The class is interesting and he lets everyone consider what he is teaching by asking students a lot of questions. This was one of my favorite classes this semester and I would definitely recommend it.

He was my favorite professor. Was a really fair grader, seemed as though he just wanted to see effort. Participation was 5% of grade. Tests :50%. Quizzes: 10%. 3 easy papers: 15%. 1 extensive paper: 15% and the remaining 5% was these surveys that were time consuming but you had the entire semester to complete. You need to read to succeed well here

genuinely the worst professor. i had an excused absence and he wouldn't let me make up an exam, his tests are impossible, and he assigns so many papers and quizzes. if you value your GPA and your sanity, don't take his class

I have a love-hate relationship with Dr Chirinos. I love him as a human, he is wonderful, amazing, and extremely helpful when you reach out. He even read over a few of my papers we had to write and gave great feedback. Here is the dislike, I am not good at psych. That is not his fault, but his class was hard. His tests are difficult and in person.

He is so wonderful and really cares about his students. The textbook was really well written too, and the authors include a lot of funny remarks. He gives really good feedback on essays. He is very understanding, encouraging and tries to make his student's days better.

I really appreciated having Dr. Chirinos as my psychology professor. Psychology can be hard to understand and he makes it clear and understandable for everyone. He's extremely helpful as long as you put the effort in as well. Make sure you keep up with due dates and use the study guides he makes for the exams.

Favorite professor this semester! Tests and quizzes are easy - the info is straight out of the textbook and he explains it well (you just need to read it, but it is interesting!) 2 major assignments but they're easy. 3 minor write ups that are also easy! He really cares about his students and the information he teaches. His class is a must take!

Best professor I've had. He let me rewrite some assignments so he would regrade them completely. Love the second chance he gave. Class requires readings, but they are light. He makes the class more entertaining by having some group discussions and inspiring students to participate in class.
