Reviews of professor Paolo Serafini

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
don't take this professor unless you enjoy getting mediocre grades on short assignments without any reasoning. 1 credit class made extremely difficult. treats you like PhD students and expects you to have in depth knowledge of everything that the researchers (PhD's of 20+ years) present on.

Dr. Serafini is an amazing teacher! He genuinely is interested in you growing as a scientific writer in this class. He stays after every seminar and goes through the different parts of the abstract with you, so you have a basic understanding of what to include before you write it on your own. You can write another abstract if you do bad on one.

Don't take MIC441 with Serafini! He'll grade your abstracts SUPER HARD, and you don't have much guidance in the course. Ex: picking out small sentences and saying they're confusing (when they make perfect sense). He's that professor that hates giving an A. You only get 4 grades in this class (abstracts) and then BOOM you have your final grade.
