Reviews of professor James Forbes

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Loved loved loved his class. Doesn't post full slides and there is a ton of content in them, but if you show up and pay attention you'll do really well. No trick questions on the exams.

He posts lecture summaries but leaves out certain things so its a good idea to either go to all the lectures or know someone who can send you pics of the pwpts. Every Friday is a discussion day, you have to answer a few questions on a word doc and submit it with a group. I rarely used the textbook so I dont recommend getting it. Overall great prof!

The slides aren't posted so you have to attend class to get the notes, with that being said his lectures are really great if a bit slow (so people can write down the whole slide). He's very nice and understanding, and the papers and tests are easy if you have attended class and skimmed the textbook. Really great guy !

James is such an incredible professor! His lectures are very informative and he really just wants everyone to succeed. HIs mid term and assignments were very straightforward, 10/10 would recommend taking his class

He is such a nice guy. James always posts lecture summaries after class. Just go over them and you will be fine.

Dr. Forbes was okay. I appreciate that there were reading quizzes to help break up the mark so that it was more spread out. His lectures were monotonous though and he was so unclear what he wanted from the midterm and papers. I would do what was asked and think I got everything only to receive terrible marks.

His class was great! He is a really understanding professor and kept lectures interesting with humor and additional facts! Would take any class he teaches again in a heartbeat.
