Reviews of professor Bryson Carroll

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He is intellectual, knowledgable, passionate about what he teaches, responds quickly. You CANNOT miss class. Attendance is absolutely mandatory and he uses up almost the entire hour and 20 minutes every class. Homework is manageable, but unclear instructions regarding word count specifically. If you're looking for a blowoff class, this isn't one.

Bryson had amazing lectures and responded to email fairly quickly. But the instructions provided for the papers were very vague and not clear at all. I have sent him many emails pertaining questions about the instructions for many of the assignments. He responds fast, but it is quite annoying when you get points taken off for misunderstanding.

Very harsh grader & is vague with requirements for all assignments. Is understanding & caring towards students but unfortunately too often the requirements are unclear and if you ask clarification questions to him it is also unclear. As far as the tests go, they are mostly vocab & manageable. Warning because it is required to pass his class.

This class and prof are really great. HW is due on sundays, 4 tests (very straight forward), no quizzes. He will always help you if you don't understand and is understanding about when things come up (late assignments and things like that). Also, the course is just honestly very insightful and this professor is expectional!

This teacher was pretty easy and was willing to help if you reached out. Pretty easy tests and content didn't take too much time at all. The papers were a bit lengthy but not too harsh on grading, and reasonable in general.
