Reviews of professor Jeremy Berkowitz

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Very good and interesting lecturer. Quite harsh grading, and his feedback, as well as his diction in class, can sometimes feel abrasive. A lot of reading is assigned, although it is not imperative to read everything. I wish I had gone to his office hours and been more attentive with assignments, if you do that it should be a good experience.

Berkowitz is a good professor. Lectures are really informative and interactive. Lots of reading, but it's worth it. He's really passionate about what he teaches and it shows. I'd really recommend him, especially if you're a Political Science major.

Berkowitz is a smart guy. However, his grading was just too harsh for what the class was. Even if you go to office hours and plan your assignments out with him to a T, you will still receive a bad grade, maybe even worse than your previous one. He grades as if you are a grad student and is very ambiguous about his intentions. Don't expect an A.

Dr. Berkowitz is a fantastic professor. But get ready to work for your grade. Be there in class, follow the readings on time, go to office hours, and you should be ok.

Jeremy is a good guy and makes learning interesting and easy to follow. However, there a several written assignments and two tests that he grades harshly on in my opinion. He expects very articulated writing for an A on the assignments, same with the tests. Attendance isn't mandatory but there are random quizzes.

I had him as a TA and he was a nice guy. You could tell he wanted to help out his students and genuinely cared about them. His discussion sections help clarify things in lecture I didn't get.
