Reviews of professor Patrick Kelly

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Never gives any real feedback other than formatting, but will consistently drop grade for "content" reasons. The assignments aren't helpful or realistic. Would recommend changing majors before taking a class with him.

Worst professor ever, no help and no feedback, anything he does give is negative. Be ready for your GPA to lower because this guy is a stickler for how you write instead of the content. Make sure your APA is on point. Horrible professor. Skip this guy all together. Made my life hell in his class. Talking to CSU about him wont help either.

Hes really tough on grades, one of the reasons i got an F is that i was absent 5 days

Took him for 141, PK is the best math professor I've ever had, gives really thorough lectures, super approachable guy with a great connection to his students. Grading policy is WAY in your favor (drops quizzes & pop quizzes replace bad quizzes), PK really wants you to succeed. It's a difficult class, but PK is the only thing keeping my grade up.

He is too opinionated and if your opinion is different than his, he will hold it against you. He is outdated and antiquated. Move in already.

Utilize proper APA format and you will not have any trouble.

The feedback he gives is barely existant, and when it is there it is rarely feedback that will help you correct your mistakes. Instead he points out what you did wrong, and tells you to correct it for the next assignment but never goes into details on why it is wrong (biggest one is APA format)

He's nice, but hella awkward. Lectures are long, boring, and filled with weird attempts to get the class involved, but not mandatory. Labs aren't too hard, but require good teamwork. Exams are ridiculously difficult, study guides offer no help, and half the time questions aren't from study guide but from the book/presentation. Avoid unless Major.

You are supposed to go to lectures and read the textbook for this class, however, I got an A without doing either and attendance wasn't mandatory. Very easy class for the physical science lib ed. Patrick Kelly gives less work than the other AST 1001 professors and he seems to be passionate about what he teaches.

Grades fairly as long as you follow APA . Feedback is clear and concise.

Kelly is a really nice lecturer that really cares about his students. His lectures are very helpful with guided notes and he will go over problems step by step in his office hours. Exams are very reasonable, just do the suggested exercises in the textbook and you'll pass fairly easily. The material may be pretty hard, but Kelly makes it passable.
