Reviews of professor Andrew Grimes

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Homework was mainly weekly quizzes on textbook reading. Grimes loved to scatter jokes throughout lectures, was quite entertaining. Very knowledgeable about the subject. There were a couple of presentations. Tests were multiple choice. ~3 hours of weekly homework. Great professor, highly recommend.

Grimes is a great professor. His lecture was fun, and his class has a good vibe. But this was a challenging course. Do not take it for an easy credit. If you fall behind you will likely not pass. And you will have to study for his exams, there was no study guide provided.

A great person, makes great jokes during lectures, and is very easy to talk to. He often is not too harsh on grades and if you show up regularly, and pay attention in class you should do fairly well. Sometimes he has a bit of trouble elaborating on some topics, but aside from that he is a very good teacher.

Attendance does matter in this class. As long as you show up and show interest, you are guaranteed to pass. He truly cares and will work with you to make sure you pass the class. Hes easy going and patient. You can tell he truly cares about astronomy.

He has good lectures, and makes them very interesting with funny tangents off on all sorts of stuff that add to the class, but also is very helpful and down to earth. There is really not a lot of homework, just the quiz each weak over the material, and a few easy presentations, along with the tests, which can be very hard to study for.

The lectures are easy to understand and he makes a lot of jokes during them. He knows a lot about the subject and explains everything really well.

Mr. Grimes is so funny and makes a difficult subject fun to learn about. He frequently goes on tangents about pop culture but that only lends to the vibe of the overall class. The course work can be tough if you don't have a science/math brain, but he is always willing to help and answer questions.
