Reviews of professor Robert Unckless

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He is very good at explaining ideas. He really listens to the class and pays attention to what the class needs more work on. He will tailor his lectures to make sure students fully understand the concepts, and this is invaluable as a true educator. Additionally, he knows how to make lectures fun and engaging. He makes jokes and is very approachable

The first exam was daunting in that there were so many short essay questions. The class was also very lecture-heavy. You need to watch the lectures to pass.

Dr. Unckless's lectures are pretty great. He weighs the exams nicely so that if you really screw up one of the three exams, it doesn't demolish your grade. As long as you have a general understanding on all of the material, you should be able to get an easy B, albeit a low one. I never had to force myself to go to class because it was so chill.

Unckless is a nice guy, but don't be fooled, this class isn't easy. It is very easy to convince yourself that the content is all "common sense" before getting rocked by an exam or quiz. This class is also difficult because Unckless doesn't give a lot of material to help study other than the weekly homework assignment and the occasional review.

Basically the entire class is graded on the 3 tests, with a few points for discussion and sapling HW. Go to discussion, that is what saves you. Tests were horrible, do as many practice problems as possible and rewatch lectures. He threw some curve balls that we never talked about as MC Qs. He is an enjoyable guy and the lectures are okay, but hard.

Genetics is not an easy course! With that being said, Unckless is a great professor and provides all of the resources necessary to understand the material. Lectures are very thorough and great at answering questions!

He was a very fun professor and cared. The lectures were a little disorganized but it didnt matter because his lectures were easy to pay attention to. Tests were extremely difficult. I recommend taking it with the other professors since the tests were easier.

Most unreasonable. I unexpectedly lost complete financial support from both of my parents this semester which left me struggling to pay for rent, food, as well as the books and programs for all my classes. After I accumulated money to pay for Sapling late in the semester, he refused to let me complete it all which I was willing to do and failed me.

Took this in Fall 2021, and I think the only reason I passed was that he made the Final optional, because he didn't want to make the extra credit promise he made about us all respecting COVID guidelines. All he did was lecture about his fly lab, and gave us no meaningful examples to use to practice for exams. Hated his class, harder than necessary.

Rob is the man. Great teacher, hard class, but lots of fun!
