Reviews of professor Jose Aparicio

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He's a really nice professor. Very clear and concise of his expectations. There are three big papers in the class, the first is an annotated bibliography, second is the informative essay, and the third is an argumentative essay. Don't fall behind, but he does allow up to 4 weeks without penalty.

This professor was so picky about the essays having the research he wants. And he got mad if the paper wasn't in perfect mla. So many hoops to jump threw.

Professor Aparicio's criteria are clear and he really focuses on you as the writer. He isn't the easiest grader but always lets you re-submit and gives awesome feedback. There are three essays to do throughout the year and around 10 discussion posts. He has a lot of available and easy extra credit that makes for an easy B or A.

he was extremely unhelpful and unclear when projects were due. he would tell you one due date but write another one, and his grading was intense.

I'm taking his class now. He's fine. He's pretty chill about deadlines and grading so it makes the class easy. You don't have to worry about your grade if you do the work. He's easy to reach with questions.

He had a great late work policy, and weekly discussion posts. But comes off as rude and accused me of cheating with ChatGPT, when I addressed him about it, he never responded back to give me evidence on how I cheated. Which I don't appreciate being left on with no response and being discredited on simple work.

Class has three major papers and lots of discussion posts. He has a great lats policy, except for peer reviews. Leaves lots of feedback on papers and is easy going in class. Lots of getting in groups and discussing readings.

Plenty of extra credit opportunities. Attendance isn't mandatory (took the online version). Three large projects, and many opportunities for discussion. Complete the assignments and you're golden.

Instructions on assignments are long and tedious. Dr. Aparicio is rude when responding to questions about homework or assignments. Requires you to go through his complicated unorganized canvas sections that are a mess to be exact. Promises that effort will get you a guaranteed A but he won't help when you're lost. His syllabus lies about grading.

Frankly I loved having this teacher because he is not complicated he just wants us to learn the lessons and the homework is very flexible because he is quite understanding. I highly recommend it.

0/10 professor. I would suggest taking someone else because of how unfair the grading system in this class is and how many loops I had to jump through.
