Reviews of professor Christopher Cooley

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
The class is excellent, but also with their own free time to students remedial. It's just that the exam is a little challenging.

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Between the sparse office hours and the amount of material covered, it was incredibly frustrating. Professor means well but the interactions with students weren't super positive. Grading was all over the place. If you must take it with him, be sure to fill out your HW/Exam to the fullest - leave nothing blank if possible.

Wildly inconsistent grader. Some students will get 10% more/less credit for the exact same work. Doesn't provide HW/test solutions. Way too much material for one class. His fault, not the schools. Take the other professor if you like to enjoy life.

It is a difficult subject to learn. All the material will build upon each other so practicing is vital. Professor Cooley has excellent lectures, though the hw can be overwhelming as often it is very long though. Tests can be difficult, just know the hw back and front in which he provides the solutions to.

Prof Cooley was one of the best lecturers I've had at OU. He is very good at presenting the material and walking through problems. Exams are extremely difficult/too long for his time constraint. He is pretty good with partial credits, but no curve. Office hours were a joke (no straight answers). He has implemented feedback from professor reviews.

Cooley is a good professor and explains the material well. It is a difficult class which does mean homework is mandatory and also graded. Grade consists of 6 homework's, 2 exams, and a final exam. Fair grader and he gives practice problems similar to the exam the class before.
