Reviews of professor Markk Carson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I loved this class. If you read the required books and come to the lecture it is super easy to pass. You are required to write 3 essays but that levels out because you have 24 hours to do so and it's open book at home. I love history and this was by far the easiest class I've taken. Mark is very clear on his expectations so read his syllabus.

He does not care about his students learning material. His grading criteria is unclear. He is not a good writer and words his questions in the most confusing way. He doesn't care if your writing is good and you make good points if it differs from his conclusions of the subject.

No powerpoints. He has the most monotone voice&just talks through lectures, he does not explain ANYTHING. If he sees a phone he calls you out & embarrasses you. If you ask a question that he deems as dumb he will say "well you shouldn't be texting" Prompts for essays suck. Exams are essays & constructed response questions, no MC. Hes rude also.

This dude can't put in an ounce of effort to make his lectures interesting but grades like this is my dissertation for grad school. This dude is an absolute joke of a professor and its obvious he's only teaching because he has to. Any class with him is the same boring, tough joke that he is. Essay prompts are 10+ sentences?? DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME

This class was like scraping your teeth on concrete. All he does is talk. Its an hour long podcast where the host has a monotonous voice that likes to hear himself talk. There are only 6 grades, 3 of are essays on books that have zilch to do with the class. TA's grade like they want prof to adopt them. He does too much for a gen-ed hist course.
