Reviews of professor Brad Thompson

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Solid choice for a lab professor... not sure what the other reviews mean. As a student you are expected to do weekly quizzes, midterm, and final. Not terribly hard if you study for it just a little bit. Nice and interesting guy and is very approachable for feedback or just some intellectual conversation. Highly recommend.

Really nice and caring guy but doesn't teach much. He cares about his students a lot but the midterm and final are basically your entire grade. My class did super poorly on the midterm and he felt bad but didn't really teach at all so it made sense why we all bombed it. The labs aren't too bad but he's disorganized so it was complicated sometimes.

Dr. Thompson is a really cool guy. I am unsure as to why he has negative reviews. Possibly because he has changed his teaching style recently? Anyways, he was always ready to answer questions and continuously made me as a student feel like I mattered! His passion for what he teaches shows greatly. Give him a chance! He made lab interesting, easy A!

WORST PROFESSOR EVER!!!! We would have to email him the night before and remind him to post the labs and our prelabs. He grades so hard and expects you to be a geology major for a gen ed requirement. Very condescending and rude. Not accessible outside class. Does not respond to emails and refuses to use OAKS or show you your grade. DO NOT TAKE HIM

This was a good class, not my favorite subject though. He helps you if you do not understand and the quizzes are hard, so study for them!

I honestly don't know why Brad has so many negative reviews. The lab is so extremely easy to begin with but he will definitely work with you if you're struggling. Midterm and final are straightforward. You're out of lab one, sometimes two hours early every time. He provides an extra credit option for every single quiz so take advantage of them!!

Not the best but not the worse. Funny guy. Labs are easy and straight forward and you get out early every single time. He will help you if confused. Only problem I have is he doesn't post the lab sometimes and you have to email him multiple times until he does it. I think he has some health issues so he does cancel lab sometimes.

Brad is a nice guy. The only problems I have with Brad are 1) he posts the labs the day of so it isn't possible to print them early & 2) he rarely shows up to class making it difficult to reach him. Not a tough or miserable class by any means, simply show up and study for the weekly quiz. Extra credit is provided & he even posts quizlets each week!
