Additional Comments |
This class was mostly boring. I've always been interesting in Astronomy but this course completely turned me off of it. Dr. McGruder is very intelligent but he wants to make you think with his class discussions, he doesnt just want to give you the answers. I took entensive notes b/c thats just the kind of note taker I am. The course lists a text book to buy but we never used it in class. He pulls his exam questions from class discussions but there are a few in there that come from the book. Still not very hard but only buy the book if you want a back up for extra information. I dont know how i made a freaking C in his class b/c he grades on a large curve and I did great on his mid term and final which together are 60% of your final grade. Also on that note, at midterm he screwed up everybodies grades in the class, a class of probably 50 students, and he managed to screw up everybodies grade. And he managed to do it again before the final!!! It was more annoying than anything but it makes me wonder if he screwed up my final grade too. Not the best professor I've ever had, thats for sure, but definately not the worst.
