Reviews of professor Karl Hoopes

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Hoopes is very smart and he knows what he is talking about. All the quizzes, pre-lab quizzes, and discussion questions, are all for VERY IMPORTANT to do. He designs these to help you keep up in class. The lab is what most people tend to struggle with. Don't be afraid to ask questions. He wants you to pass, but you have to work for it. Do the EC

There is a lot of material in this course but Dr Hoopes is fair with the depth of test questions, and questions are recycled from quizzes so it's easy to do well. Sometimes the course objectives don't line up with the exam questions. Dr Hoopes knows his stuff and gives interesting lectures. Requires a research paper but he grades it pretty nicely.

This was by no means and easy class but Dr. Hoopes was easily accessible. If you turned assignments in early you got feedback and could resubmit. Heavily weighted research paper toward middle/end of semester but you are well prepared and it was a lot of fun.
