Reviews of professor Simon Adam

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This professor was so unnecessarily challenging, I've never met a professor who seems further removed from the content they are supposedly experts on. The tests had questions on them that had no foundational basis and did not appear to have any thought behind the content they are testing. Avoid this professor at all costs. save yourself the time.

I think Simon was a fair professor. If you complete your readings, engage in lecture and put effort into your assignments you should be more than fine. I had a hectic semester this term unfortunately due to issues in my personal life so I never went to lecture, did not read the textbook and still managed to get a B+ (normally and A to A+ student)

No point of going to lecture in my opinion! He even says in class, if you only have time to do the reading vs going to lecture just do the reading. Tests are based on the textbook readings and the test questions are straightforward as long as you do all the readings!

Simon is a great professor. His lectures can be a little dry at times but he's a great teacher and is really passionate about what he teaches. His tests were not too difficult, but he likes papers and group projects.

This professor requires a lot of work and could benefit from a performance review. Has a podcast where he discusses the overmedicalization of mental illness yet inadvertently perpetuates and gives people a platform that believes anxiety and ADHD are not real. This professor also cannot write an adequate test to save their lives.

Professor Adam was overall a good professor. As previously mentioned his tests are based out of the textbook. His lectures were interesting but definitely you just need to read and study the textbook to pass the tests. Overall enjoyed the class and found him to be very fair!
