Reviews of professor James Scott

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I'm honestly not sure why he is getting so many negative reviews. He genuinely makes sure the class understands material before moving on so if no one tells him they don't understand, he will assume they do. Concepts in the class are not overly complicated unless your parents have handled everything for you in life.

Professor Scott is new and I think, trying his best. The class is worth it if you're looking for CPCU credit and he grades on a curved scale which is HUGE. Aka an 80+ is an A. Very strict on attendance. His lectures didn't do much for me so reading was really important in order to pass exams. I would have liked to see a project or paper.

He's trying, but its got to be hard when you're possibly on the spectrum.

very bad grader and very tough exams. You can score well only if you remember every single word of textbook

If you have no interest in working in insurance, don't waste your time. This class is hard but thats because the material is. No way around it. Tests are fully based on textbook and questions come from the textbook writers. READ chapters, make good study guides (mine were 15-20 pgs on Word), and you'll do fine. I finished with a 83, an A for him.

Professor will state they're understanding of accommodations then decline your accommodations because "it's unfair to your teammates."

Keep up with the reading or you won't pass. Very difficult but if you study and know the material inside and out, you can pass. Lecture heavy.
