SUPER EASY! The work was short and simple and everything is due on sunday. The directions were straight forward and all work can be finished in an hour max if you put your phone away! One of the easiest classes. I would literally gate-keep this class but you should all take him if you want a class that's simple and easy. 900-1000 is an A. TAKE HIM!

He takes a whole week just to respond to students emails and sometimes doesn't respond and constantly marks me down 10-20 points on some discussions even when I have met the criteria. He says to email him if you want to know why you got points taken off, but doesn't even respond.

He is so knowledgeable and passionate about the topic that it makes me jealous. Participating in his class is terrifying he is very intense. If u hate discussion boards dont take this class. We had one every week. The exams are EASY even a kid could get an A. Lots of extra credit and u get a cheat sheet on exams. He also accepts late work.

His main concern is about not using AI. If you do, you'll get a zero or might even fail the class because he wants to see what you've learned on your own. Overall, his class is really easy—especially if you take it in person. It's much better than online, and the exams are easy, so don't worry about them.

I remember taking political science with prof Parry, and it was an elective 100% online class. I expected to just go there and get an A and call it a day, but to my surprise, he made the class incredibly fun and engaging
