Reviews of professor Charles Hilton

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Only BEGAN putting in grades for the entire semester 2 days before the final, then didn't upload on Connect Carolina until it was too late to appeal. Felt like I was doing well the entire semester just to find out last minute after I graduated he gave me a C. Literally gave me a 40 out of 100 on a problem set I completed in entirety.

Professor Hilton was a pretty standard college professor. It's lecture-based and you do very little homework. There were 3 exams which determined your grade. The study guides are extensive but often include information you won't use while excluding information you will use. I did find him funny and loved the days he brought in artifacts, though.

Hilton shows little passion for teaching and while the material is not incredibly hard or time consuming, lectures are very boring and you have to learn a lot on your own time. There are no lecture videos to re-watch and the lecture slides are difficult to decipher without personal notes, which makes the 3 heavily weighted tests pretty difficult.

I wouldn't recommend unless necessary. The content is not exactly hard but the lectures are boring and professor is monotone which discourages going to lecture. However, go especially on days when attendance is expected to be low he gives lots of extra credit. 3 exams make up most of grade, 2 easy 3-4 page papers, and two labs. TA's were nice!

The class was 75% exams with two midterms and a final and 25% with two papers and a lab. The professor gives extra credit depending on attendance on random dates and responds within 24-48 hours. He was understanding as I had gone through bad health problems and I still got a decent grade on the exam. Reading is quite mandatory with a longggg book

If you enjoy sitting through hours of boring, monotone lectures, and being tested on the most random things from the presentations, take Hilton. He's not even a terrible guy but he does not care about the class. He takes a while to email back and it's just not worth it. This class gave me way more stress than it should have. Don't torture yourself.

Unless you REALLY have an interest in this topic, I would not recommend taking this class. Class is very boring and he speaks in a monotone voice which makes it hard to listen. The majority of your grade is based on the tests you take and the study guides provided aren't particularly helpful for the content on the tests. Try to avoid this class.

Prof Hilton is kind of a dull lecturer but the material is not difficult. Exams are exclusively on topics covered in recitation/classes and are multiple choice/true or false. While classes may be a bit of a slog at times, this is not a difficult course in the slightest.
