Reviews of professor Scott Wehrwein

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Scott is the most unorganized professor I've ever had. He is inaccessible, unhelpful and completely condescending to his students. Aside from his power trip, the class is a complete mess, with the labs being the only remotely fun thing of the class, and even those are a mess. He refused to show his feedback on our final and final project. Nope.

Class is awful if you are an independent learner/note taker. Lecture information is provided w/videos that you watch before each class. Class work is all though groups. Quizzes, midterm, and final all had questions that weren't directly covered through videos. Grading is confusing and inconsistent. Midterm and final were very but notes are allowed.

His grading is if not the worst I have seen at Western. I had a A- for majority of the quarter and then 45% of our grade was determined from 1-2 weeks. We spent weeks working on a project and yet were not allowed to know how we did on it even though it was 20% of our grade. Final was 25% and we couldnt see how we did unless we went next quarter?

Scott generally is approachable. Assignments took forever to be graded and most of the work wasn't graded till the last week of the quarter, because of this It was hard to get feedback. The final project got changed to a exam 2.5 weeks before finals. There was inconsistencies in the class at times and the syllabus got changed twice.

He's a pretty quirky teacher. His lectures are "flipped," as in you watch a recorded lecture and do a set of exercises for homework and then show up for class and go over your answers with your team, and then he spends the last 15 minutes or so going over any hard problems. Annoyingly, he would never finish going over them before class ended.

Scott is a great professor. This class was mostly good, there were a couple topics that felt a little rushed but it still wasn't too bad. He has very clear grading criteria and he explains things very well in lectures. Be prepared for some group assignments. If you show up to class and pay attention you'll probably do fine overall.
