Reviews of professor Ross Casebolt

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Seems like he knows what he's talking about, but classes feel disorganized and half the time lectures will get completely derailed because of a small mistake in his calculations. I've had to learn most of the course content on my own time via the textbook even though there are four lectures a week. Tests are substantially easier than the homework.

I personally wish and will never take his class again. My class got setup and he put a question that wasnt on the practice test and he said before the test we were allowed to use the internet. I used the internet to help understand what the question meant. And half the class got written up for cheating. I used my resources that he gave permission.

This class was really difficult for almost my whole class. The averages in tests were about 55%. He only allows a notecard for tests and everything is accumulative. The tests were a lot harder than the homework assignments and the review packets that he gave us. He seems like he knows a lot about the subject but its hard to understand as a student

Ross is obviously very smart, but his intelligence in the subject does not translate well to teaching. His lectures are unorganized and hard to follow, and often times he makes mistakes that waste time. He offers to no indication of what topics will be covered, so it makes it hard to prepare for class. Expect to teach yourself most of the material.

His lectures and solving of examples were sometimes hard to follow. However he was more than willing to pause the lecture to take questions or clear up any confusions. Tests and homework weren't overly difficult provided you put enough time into studying and were clearly inspired from the textbook/homework.

He was my discussion leader for Intro to stats and he wasn't particularly helpful. His answers were long and meandering and sometimes it seemed like he didn't really know how to answer questions. He was nice enough though and I think he's still figuring things out..

The class was difficult because it is a calc class but he was really receptive to questions and had office hours almost every day after class for homework help. He curves the midterms and finals if needed, gives partial credit on test questions, and allows a notecard on tests. Good teacher overall.
