Reviews of professor James Schaeffer

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Curriculum not crazy-involved & tests are fairly easy if you go to lecture OR read the modules. You get 'extra' info @ lectures, so if it interests you go, attendance is NOT mandatory. 
What IS hard is having to interpret complex abstracts and rewrite a summation (we did 3 - 2 individually & 1 with a group)
4 exams, Optional Final & 3 papers is ALL

Dr, Schaeffer is an amazing professor. The lectures were a lot of material but if you just study them you can make an A on every test. There's only 4 tests and an optional final. We did kahoots every class that goes over the material and he makes sure everyone understands by answering questions. I would definitely take his class if I could.

Really tough grader on papers, if you don't give exactly what he's looking for he takes off alottttt of points. The in class tests are easy, but take home tests are three essays due over the weekend, which is really and little material is provided. Rushes through lectures and unenthusiastic.
