Reviews of professor Phillip Holcomb

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Prof. Holcomb does not deserve the bad ratings on here. Super sweet guy, and is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the field of cognitive psychology. He does a great job during his lectures, and his tests are extremely fair, as they are a combination of mostly questions from lecture and a few from the textbook. Will be taking him again!

He's definitely a boring lecturer, but he's a nice guy. 3 exams, all open note and online, two worth 45% of grade and worst worth only 10%. All the questions come right out of lecture slides. Material is straightforward, easy A.

Professor Holcomb is a very sweet guy! He seems to genuinely care about his students, and while the material may seem overwhelming, he makes the tests very fair and gives you a study guide with key terms from the test. The only down side is that he goes through the lecture slides pretty fast and the lectures are boring. There are 3 exams.

Class

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Hard material and heavy material. Class consists of 3 exams only which makes it hard to improve grade throughout the semester. 
5-6 chapter in each exam 
Very hard class I would not take him again

Holcomb is an incredibly boring professor. His lectures felt extremely long and he jumps through slides so quickly you have to go back and copy them down after. His tests are difficult because he only offers a poor excuse of a study guide. Avoid his classes if you can.
