Reviews of professor Paul Mensink

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
I went to half the first lecture and never went again. He posts all the lecture notes in a very organized way on owl. You can get a very good mark by just studying those notes (on top of the papers and weekly tests).

Amazing professor with easy notes to follow along. Few assignments but are usually graded by TAs often critical of mistakes. Be sure to follow up with them if you disagree with your mark. Mensink was an amazing professor with an excellent and caring personality (rare at Western). HE IS YOUR ALLY! I never wrote one of these before but I felt obliged

awesome prof, had his env sci 1021 class, and I'm bummed he doesn't teach any 2nd 3rd or 4th year classes, otherwise i would've 100% taken them. no textbook is required, he already has notes of each of the chapters, course is really fun, assignments are pretty easy, best to review each chapter per week to best prepare for midterms/ finals.

Professor Mensink is one of the best professors. He makes his notes and lectures both clear and engaging. He is also very understanding and willing to help you with the course material and provide helpful feedback. Overall, definitely take his course if you can!

Took his class first year to fulfill category C requirement and it became one of my favourite classes. Love Mensink, it wouldnt have been as interesting with a different prof. We could go in person, or he also live streamed with little technical difficulties. Content is interesting and if you keep up with course notes you will be fine on exams.
