Reviews of professor Brian Pilcher

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The class had a lot of potential to be enjoyable but the lectures made it insanely boring. The tests and quizzes are worded weirdly. Passing them was less about studying and more about adjusting to the testing style. I mainly only went to class on mandatory days and did fine. He will try to help you if you ask which was nice.

Professor Pilcher was a pretty boring teacher but the class was super easy. I took Animal Biology with him and it was all power points. There was one book we had to read 7 chapters of, Beak of the Finch, but it was decently engaging. He allows a note-card front and back into tests. I didn't show up half the semester and still got a B.

Professor Pilcher was boring and gave a lot of homework in relation to the signature assignment. Weekly quizzes- open note, and three retakes available but lots of info to remember. Showed up late and went overtime nearly every class. If you pay attention and take LOADS of notes you will be fine. Group to help with sig. assignment was very helpful.

Very bad at actually teaching the material. He just reads the definitions of words straight off of power points and really doesn't teach you anything. Also he grades super heavy on your English and grammar. He grades harder on your assignments than any English teacher. Such a poor teacher... Would not have taken him if it wasn't major required

HE IS AMAZING! Great professor, super caring. He will go above and beyond for you to learn and his lectures are easy to comprehend as long as you're paying attention. Whenever he sees you're struggling he will make sure to help. Test are hard if you dont study. 10/10 recommend
