Reviews of professor Maurice Clark

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
His Solar System class consists of only lectures and an assignment twice a month. He does not upload his lectures and has horrible timing making it impossible to take adequate notes. He was rude to others in the class and was not clear on what would be on the tests, so studying for them meant reading multiple chapters at once. Would not recommend.

The assignments are a combination of reading text and the powerpoint/lecture is equally important. Be prepared to put the work in the first half of the class, and you will get faster at the labs and the assignments, they are very detailed but put the work in and it will get easier come test time. Tests are hard! Labs are long but fun!

Clark is awful!! He has very vague expectations for the classwork and tests and is very inconsistent with grading and with updating canvas. I never knew what assignments were due and what my grade was because he didnt put any grades canvas until the last week of school and by that it was too late to do anything! He is rude and yells at students.

Hes not the nicest person. I had him for lab and he genuinely did not know what he was doing. So when Id ask him questions he would treat me like i was stupid. So if you can put up with that great. His grading is very inconsistent because the person you work with may get a better grade than you did. It doesnt add up.

Honestly, he isn't terrible to me but I have seen other students not get along with him at all. My issue is the way he teaches. All of the content is scattered so it makes it hard to find, no study guides, or any help for tests, he tells us not to look at the book but half the time I need extra clarification or an actual explanation. Not good.

Very very rude, difficult and does not communicate what so ever. Wouldnt recommend taking to my worst enemy let alone anyone else.

Does not allow electronics of any kind, so you HAVE to write everything by hand. Flicks through slides way too fast during lectures, thus giving no time to get notes. Never posted powerpoints on canvas, so you were stuck either way. If you don't like lecture-heavy classes and prefer to type your notes out, avoid his class like the plague.

The professor is incredibly nice and knowledgeable. Lectures are long and packed with info. tests are few and cover alot of material - be prepared to read a lot. Tests are always closed book so memorization is a must. Intro classes are anything but. If you study you will learn a lot but you need to focus more in this class than any other class.

Very hard professor but is willing to work with you. He absolutely hates Americans, it's kind of funny. Make sure you know the formulas for the tests.
