Reviews of professor Paul Kochmanski

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Amazing teacher and u will learn so much by taking any of his classes. The only downside is that he does not care about personal problems and will never give you a break major points will be taken off for attendance for missing one class. Only doctors notes and death certificates are allowed excuses, also grades participation w/ out knowing ur name

He is literally the worst. He has disrespected me many times among other students as well in front of the class. He is very rude and if you ask questions he makes you feel dumb for not knowing the answer. He graded very hard and the power points dont make sense half the time. Im not comprehending the information for tests because of his teaching.

He is literally scared to give out an A. On one test out of four two people got an A out of a class of 23. So for all the 92 test grades that were given he only gave two As (with a curve). I put hours into studying for his tests but there was nothing I could do. He also took away attendance points for my EXCUSED absences, I was away for sports.

Horrible professor made me not like this class when I was genuinely interested in learning. Out of all the tests not one student got an A (he told us). You will be uncomfortable because he asks inappropriate questions and get offended when you don't want to answer them. If you miss ONE class you automatically lose 10% of your participation grade.

Class is interesting but prof is awful. Never got through any lectures. Had to teach most of the material to myself. Tests were hard as many questions were abt 1 specific line in the textbook. 1 unexcused absence=B attendance grade which I think is ridiculous. He's tweaking class for next yr so maybe it'll be better, who knows.

NO! Just avoid this professor if you can. One semester with him has me switching my major, extremely bitter and condescending. Not interested in seeing his students succeed, every assignment is graded heavy. Attendance is mandatory, and his lectures are way too long. The format of his exams is outdated, don't bother asking for help or explanations.

Paper criteria is garbage, tests average at a 75%, it's a tough class to get through. Im usually optimistic but good luck with this guy.

The class and the content is very interesting. The problem is the professor that teaches. He is very unapproachable, does not care about his students individually, and assigns copious amount of work. He will grade you on participation but still does not know your name. Don't know how he is still a professor, makes uncomfortable comments.
