Dr. Bradie is really passionate about what he teaches, and explains everything in a way that's easy to understand. Also keeps class engaging, concise, and funny. The course I took was easy enough to learn about outside of class, so attendance wasn't really needed, but if you show up to class and work on homework an A is easy to achieve.

Super easy class, Bradie is super good at going over problems in class and you do a lot of examples. Homework is either online or you have to turn it in on paper to class the next day. He is super easy-going and really funny. Makes math enjoyable! Would 100% take this class again.

Dr. Bradie is very nice and a GREAT professor!! Go to his office hours if you don't understand something and he will help! He is very fast at responding so if you have a question on hw he will respond within minutes! He is a very fast grader so you won't have to wait forever to know what you got on an exam. I highly recommend him!!!!!

Dr. Bradie is a great professor. Watched a pre-recorded lecture before most classes, then did practice a WS in class which wasn't bad. Always willing to help and is great at explaining things. All of our tests were open notes and I always got a B+ or higher on them. HW due every class period but they reinforced material and were easy grade-boosters

Overall he is an amazing prof. Homework is due every week and there's 4 test and a final. So, tests make up most of your grade. Stay on top of your homework and pay attention in class and you'll do just fine. I would recommend him for anyone majoring in math/stats or just trying to complete the mandatory math 125 credit.

If you dont consider yourself to be naturally good at math or stats specifically, do NOT take his class. He covers twice as much material as every other stats prof at CNU and expects you to learn the material insanely quick. He is more than happy to give help when needed, but I met with him and did tutoring every week and it didnt matter.

Dr. Bradie is a great professor! Lectures were mostly pre-recorded and then worked on things in class to ask for help if needed. All tests were open notes, even the final. The class was fairly easy and straightforward and pretty interesting for math. Dr. Bradie is so caring and fairly forgiving if you need an extension. Overall amazing professor!

He may be one of the best professors at CNU. I took him my freshman year for math for life sciences, and he was amazing. He gives amazing feedback and is always so caring when it comes to his students. He's always willing to work with you outside and during class to make sure you succeed. Such a nice guy!

I took his Math for the Life Sciences course - pretty easy. Homework after each class (watch a video & worksheet). Very flexible as long as you put forth effort, will definitely work with you. He is very nice and will try his best to make sure you understand and succeed. As a freshman, definitely the best class I took my first semester.

By far the best math teacher I have ever had. Lectures are detailed. Final grade only consists of homework and tests so be sure to do well on the tests. Extremely accessible and always willing to help. Ask questions if you are having trouble understanding the content and do the practice problems in the textbook.

Dr. Bradie is an amazing professor who wants all of his students to succeed. He does a great job of teaching you through the lectures and is very flexible when it comes to late homework. The homework can be a bit tedious at times because you have to write it all your work and submit it on paper, but most of the time it is manageable.

Dr. Bradie focuses on theory instead of process and practice. His notes were hard to follow in class and even more difficult to understand outside of class. He is a great person, but not the best teacher. I would not take him again and recommend against enrolling in his class if you learn through practice and repetition.

Bradie is an exceptional math teacher passion. However, some students have noticed a discrepancy in his treatment between genders, he will show leniency towards female students. Additionally, he seems deeply involved in CNU's women athletics, such as soccer and volleyball.

He's a great guy, very nice. Covers mathematical theory extensively with many in-class examples; however, this course still was incredibly difficult. Weekly homeworks, and occasional daily warmups, and short tests all culminated into barely passing this course even with tutoring. I'd only recommend him to math majors or someone who took calc prior.

Professor Bradie is one of my professors. He gives excellent feedback, goes over many examples in class, and is very engaging. He was the reason I got my first 100 on a math exam ever. I have always struggled with math, but he helped me to understand and even enjoy the material. If you ever have to take statistics, take it with Professor Bradie!

Professor Bradie is one of the best professors I have had, especially in math. I have hated math, but he is always ready to help and gives lots of examples. He got me to enjoy math and I was able to pull a low A. He also doesn't want you buying textbooks that you won't need so that's nice too. If you have to take stats, push for Prof. Bradie.

Dr. Bradie is so sweet and caring. He focuses a lot on repetition to drill material, so if that's not something you're into then maybe look for another professor. He can be a little dry regarding questions but he's caring and does what he can to ensure students do well in his class. His word problems are funny too.

This is my second time having Dr. Bradie, and I never can have another math professor. He is the best! His exams are fair and lectures are perfect. He really wants you to understand the basics and will constantly check if you understand how he is executing problems. If you're looking to take any math class I would recommend Dr. Bradie every time.

I had to take a math class for credit and was nervous for this class, but he made it fun. There is homework for every class but if you pay attention to the lectures and take good notes, it's pretty easy. He's always available during his office hour times, so use those if you're struggling, they help a lot! He likes getting to know his students too!

I took Bradie for 125 fall sem freshman year and I loved his class so much I took 131 with him just for kicks even though I didn't need another math class. I was pulling C's and D's in high school when it came to math but not with him. He gave plenty of examples and got me feeling confident in my ability to do the work. I recommend him to everyone.

He's okay and very sweet, but intentionally makes tests (obviously, the majority of your grade) harder than he says. He tends to say he'll give formulas and tell you what the questions are, but he doesn't. He also has a weird way of asking them.
