Reviews of professor James Carew

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Take a lot of notes during class and study them, and study the pop-quizzes (which are all extra credit). He recycles the questions and the pop quizzes make up 3/4 of the tests. He's nice people here just don't like to pay attention in class or show up. I finished with 113.5% and he made the final optional so I didn't take it. Super easy.

Do not take this class unless you have hours upon hours of time to study. l had to withdraw from this class because I'm an English major and did not have the time to sit and study all of his material. His lectures are so boring and that it was difficult to pay attention in class. He says he's accessible but often criticizes his students.

Do not take this class with James Carew. You can tell in his time he was once a great teacher, but in todays world he refuses to integrate with modern technology and never puts grades in the grade book because, "you can calculate it yourself." If you have to take his class don't worry because the quizzes are same questions that will be on the test.

Arrogant old man. Gave me 2 minutes to take a 20 question quiz and then wondered why I didn't answer most of the questions. Unfortunately that's not an exaggeration. If you are currently taking his class get out while you can and if you're considering him as a professor DONT!!!

Honestly he is not as bad as people make him out to be. As long as you pay attention it is pretty easy. All of his PEO's are from the Pop PEO's so his tests are easy. Just read over the slides he post for you and you should be good.

RUN. He has a genuine love for geology and his lectures are interesting to watch if you are into geology. However, he is arrogant and lacks sympathy for his students. His pop-quizzes are very rarely on anything on his presentations, but more often than not, on things he SAYS in regards to the slides. Yet he'll be shocked half the class is failing.

Professor Carew is by far the worst professor I have ever had. His power points are just pictures, he teaches like every student in his class is a geology major (taking this for gen ed), his tests are unreasonably hard and specific, and extra credit quizzes are ridiculous. The only reason I will pass this class is bc of the textbook. DO NOT TAKE.
