Reviews of professor Patrick Denice

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Turns a 20-slide PowerPoint into the length of a 3-and-a-half-hour lecture. Provides minimal explanation in his lecture slides, as well as no final exam preparation or practice problems. Went into the final exam blind, with little to no practice besides the subpar textbook he provided.  Please avoid this class at all costs, I am not joking.

I enjoyed his class and I was doing quite well in it until the final exam. He has very clear lectures. However, his final exam lowers your grade a lot. Prepares you for knowledge-based q's and then asks application q's without teaching how to apply the basic method and without practice. If you take this class, ask for a practice exam to be prepared

Prof Denice is by far the best prof I have had at Western. He is so good at explaining the content and I am super bad at math (failed psych stats). This is the first great grade I have gotten in any university math course and I am 100% sure it is because of this prof. Highly recommend!

One of the worst profs at UWO. Chose a useless textbook with no details that was free, hoping we would by a software for our computers instead... And then is useless again through email when asking for help with the software. Avoid his classes as best you can. (But can stay home since he reads off the slides if you do end up in his class).

He talks a lot and there isn't much time for discussion. Knows a lot though so it's interesting. Clear instructions but tough grader. The most I learned about race was from him though I'm taking a wife with his class this term and you can see the overlap in the material on race and work.
