Reviews of professor Gregory Finnigan

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
I took Biochem and society, because its supposed to be the easiest option for those going into non science majors. I had to get help from seniors in organic chem to do his homework. extremely hard class. he is very arrogant and self absorbed. his class is ridiculous. do not take unless youre very good at science. my worst professor. awful class.

Klebba made me dread this class, not Finnigan. His personality actually made class enjoyable. He gives plenty of participation options, ways to makeup missing work, & practice problems. He's very upfront about what to expect for presentations & his half of the final, and he gave timely & thoughtful email responses. Study, show up, & you'll be A-OK

Funny at times, but definitely not personable/borderline arrogant. Didn't use lecture slides (which made reviewing material difficult) and emphasized his teaching methods were superior (they aren't). He's very smart but not a good teacher. Only taught 2 weeks of this class so just suck it up and try your best.

Dude's way over his head just because he went to Berkeley. If you plan on doing undergrad research, DON'T do research with him.
