Reviews of professor Curtis Congreve

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Definitely recommend! Attendance was not mandatory, and the content was very easy to understand. Tests are also online. He cares about his students as well. Take him if you can!

He is a really great professor, there is a good amount of homework but it doesn't take longer than 20 minutes. The group projects are pretty easy and there are about 3 exams and as long as you pay attention in class and study a little bit you'll be fine. On the exams though there is a group portion so be prepared for that.

He was super nice and kept his class really interesting and engaging. He would ask multiple choice questions throughout class on TopHat which also counted as attendance(Usually opinion based). The labs were really easy for the most part and tests were half multiple choice, half group work. He also posted helpful study guides for each exam.

Congreve is the best professor I have had at State his course reminds me of an interactive high school science class even though it is in a big lecture hall. As long as you don't try and fail you will do well.

Dr. Congreve is the best. I took this class to fill a GEP and expected to not care but he made me genuinely interested in geology by the end. Yeah the delta tests are annoying but they were not that hard. Be sure to do the extra credit as it bumped up my grade a bit.

He is a great lecturer as long as you are interested in the content. His exams are open note and even if you do poorly on the exams, he offers extra credit and has video projects throughout the semester. There should be no reason not to get an A in his class.

MEA 101 is my least favorite class at NCSU. You are required to take 4 timed exams at DELTA, which in my opinion, is absurd for a 100-level class. The material presented is complex and in depth for a beginner's level course and was both difficult to understand and take exams on. Do not take this class if you are looking for an easy GEP fulfillment.

Great lectures, engaging, and definitely cares about what he's teaching. This class is also very easy to do well in if you just show up and pay attention. The labs for this course are easier than any other lab I've had at NC State. 

Fantastic professor, and just a cool guy all around :)

Simple class. 2 quick easy assignments per week. Labs are optional. There is a few projects, do them and you will be fine. Test are open note and can be done on your own time, 2 attempts.

If you need an easy GEP, take this. One of the best professors I have ever had. He is so passionate about Earth Science and makes lectures enjoyable. Lots of info, but typically info you learned in high school so not hard. Attendance is not mandatory, but participation points are a grade, can miss like 7 classes and still get a 100.Little work.
