Reviews of professor Stuart McCaughey

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. M is an awesome guy. Although he seems a little shy and reserved at first, he has a very dry sense of humor. The class is all lecture, but he makes them interesting and normally breaks them up with discussion questions and "bed time stories" about the brain. He is a great professor and is always there to help at office hours or through email.

Class is mainly just about taking notes and doing the practice quizzes. If you do that much you'll do pretty well on the tests. Tests are usually curved to bring the average to 85. The textbook is not necessary.

Dr. McCaughey is a great professor at UD. He knows what is he doing. He teaches good and funny lectures and also gives students a lot of meaningful feedback. He is supportive, and He Will NOT Fail you. English is my second language, his materials are hard for me to understand. But he will provide you a lot of feedback and extra points for exams.

One of the best professors I've had at UD. Lectures are super interesting and usually easy to follow. Covers tricky topics multiple times and always does review before exams. He's also pretty lenient when it comes to due dates. Always happy to talk after class and answer questions via email.

This class is easy if you are a "good test taker" as your final grade makeup is 93% from exams and the rest is participation. His lectures can get boring if you easily lose focus, and the only materials he gives for studying are practice quizzes which usually have less than 50% of the info on the exam. He usually curves the exam.

He isn't the best teacher I've ever had, but he's fair. He's lenient on attendance as long as you give him notice. Attending lectures and taking notes during class will be helpful if you want to do well on tests. He gives practice review questions before exams that show up on the tests a lot.

i looked forward to his class every day. attendance is mandatory but if u tell him u cant make it, he will excuse u, no questions. he encourages office hours and they are very helpful for reviewing exams. all 4 exams are cumulative and the exam grade includes the homework. easy class and great prof

I love Dr. M! Class is very lecture heavy but he tells jokes and interesting stories that make it more interesting. You definitely have to make an effort to keep up with the lessons because he talks really fast and moves through topics quickly. He wants his students to pass and will help outside of class! Make the effort and you'll be fine.

One of my favorite professors. He is super lenient with deadlines, even for the open ended portion of exams. No homework and only really graded on exams, but they are very fair and he posts practice quizzes. Would definitely reccomend.
