He was nice at first, and then he became very vague on what material we were going to cover for the final. We were on Chapt 1 for two months and raced through chapters 2 - 17 in one month. He was rude and non-empathetic to the students. I would not recommend taking him. He sucks!!!

This one girl was presenting in front of the class and all he kept doing was asking her, "what do you mean?" and condescending her throughout her presentation. The girl left the class crying. This wasn't the first time he's done it.

Professor Buchman was a total jerk. He never fully explained what he required from assignments but graded severely when these things he didn't mention were missing. He struts around in his pretentious Prada loafers and acts like he knows EVERYTHING. I would NEVER take him. EVER. Avoid this jerk at ALL costs.

Of course he knows what he's talking about, but that doesnt make him a good teacher. He's absolutly horribe. Someone can be vey knowledgable and not know how to teach a class. i would rather die then take him again!

RUDE. I was wandering how did he end up teaching. He probably has dome sort of training in the field, but he is DEFINETELY NOT trained as a teacher. He has no consideration for students, is abrasive, not motivating; basically if a student got some sort of interest in advertising the teacher will kill it by the end of the semester.GEt someone else !

hated this class. He can not teach. can not explain. Rude. Teacheing is very unclear. Never explains what he want . Lowering grade no matter what you do.

Worst professor I have ever had!I have taken so many marketing/ad classes and this is the only one I got less than an A in!If you enjoy AMC, he will change your mind forever!He is NOT funny & unless you talk every second he will not give you more than a C for participation.He'd rather the class teach than himself..y is he paid?Dont waste your money

He sucks!! I bust my tail in that class. Was never absent, always participated, did well on exams and got a stinking B+, what the hell is that?He's very cranky and does not like to answer too many questions.

This man is a joke, and an embarassment to the Fashion Institute of Technology. He is stiff, monotone and belabors pointless information. If you email him- don't expect a response

Don't buy the text book because he hates it, be very afraid to speak in class as he will make fun of you. Don't expect to learn anything, as everything gets repeated and nothing is being said, and you don't get to see the comments on your final project or test. He's all about appearance (mostly his own), and it doesn't look good. Avoid him!!

i like prof buchman but his class is extremely unclear.he never gives exact definitions and goes over the same examples over and over again.he expects us to know everything on the test by reading the book which he goes over just once b4 the tests.i never missed his class and spent a long time on the final project but got a disappointing grade.

I had him for Brand Management and all I can say is AVOID AT ALL COSTS. In my opinion Buchman is a condescending **** of a professor. His classes are boring and repetitive. I learned NOTHING new. He keeps himself enthusiasm by picking at students, and not in a funny playful way, he is just nasty and irritating. Just thinking of his facial expressi

would NOT recommend this professor, he plays a guessing game in class when he tries to explain things--as if you should/could really read his mind and then he makes uncalled-for remarks.. pretty rude professor by far + my 2nd worst at FIT. If you want to do yourself a favor and not have to play mind games for a semester, pick another prof.!

Save urself!You wont learn a thing. Video Prod: thrown in and expected to know what to do, doesn't teach u anything, criticizes ur work without telling u what u did wrong or how to fix it.Doesn't work w/ students or others.Rude+mean to techs and students.Absolute @$$.Shows up late to class but expects u to be there on time+stay till the end

Save yourself and register for another class. He takes himself, and the class, way too seriously. He treats his staff poorly and will find a way to yell at you if he can. Spends too much time talking (which feels like an eternity because of his lack of enthusiasm). Required class, so try to take it with someone else. And choose your group wisely!

Such a rude teacher to students, I have never experienced this in my life with a faculty member of FIT. Avoid this guy if you can.

Professor Buchman is the worst professor EVER. He has a very snobbycondescending attitude. For ex, when we go over tests, he makes rude comments such as "this is common sense" or "how does anyone get this Q wrong" instead of explaining why we got it wrong. He thinks he knows what he's talking about but he really doesn't. DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS.

Worst teacher I ever had!!! Not sure why he's still teaching at FIT. He seems like he hates he's job. His classes are sooooo boring and God forbid ask him for help. He's a monster in human body.

By far the worst professor at FIT. Rude, condescending, unhelpful, and all around horrible. Instead of helping students he puts them down when they ask for guidnce. He makes rude comments out loud about students work and constantly rolls his eyes when a student presents something. How FIT allows this man to teach their students is beyond me.

Worst professor I've ever had in my 3 years of college. Extremely rude and condescending. Keeps you the full 4 hours when the last 3 you are doing nothing. Refuses to let you out early. Not helpful at all. You will learn nothing in his class. If I could go back I would drop the class and wait a semester. You've been warned

Unhelpful, offers a lot of criticism, rarely constructive.

Dreaded going to this class every week. Homework was to read the chapters in the textbook. Each class, he would ask if anyone had any questions yet took over an hour to answer each one. There were no PowerPoints, just lecture. I wouldn't barely even call this a lecture because he just rambled on and on about nothing. Be prepared to teach yourself!!

I'm not even done with this class yet but second semester class registration is coming up so I MUST warn you to not take this professor's class. All of the negative reviews are accurate. This professor is very knowledgeable, but also redundant, unnecessarily condescending, and overall has a weird, rude vibe about participation.

Prof. Buchman is not worth taking. You will never know what kind of mood he will be in. If he's in a bad mood, then you risk him going off on you for even the simplest and most respectful questions. He is unhelpful and likes to see students fold from pressure. He's tenured, though, so you will never get give FIT feedback for him. DO NOT TAKE!

Worst professor at FIT in the marketing department. He is rude and condescending to his students. Any assignments you do in his class will never be good enough for him. Professor Buchman doesn't even have a phd and has no clue what he is talking about during his lectures.

He doesn't know what assignments are due (automatically assigned from the textbook), and won't respond to emails. He has no idea what he's teaching, and doesn't answer questions accurately. There were quizzes assigned after the semester ended, and now every student has a zero on them. We don't even have a final grade yet, and it's Jan 2. AVOID!!

This class was terrible. I only have 350 characters, so I'll try to skip to the point, but so much happened. He is arrogant and rude. He didn't put our grades in until the last possible minute, and they were wrong. Thank god we all came together to contact the head of the dept. He also never replies to emails. Good luck if you're taking this class

I genuinely dislike this man so very much. He is so arrogant. He submitted our final grades realizing that they were all wrong. He screams if no one participates making us literally scared to even talk.

This class gave me so much anxiety. Not so much because of the work, but because of the way he spoke to us. This man never has a smile on his face. Always in a bad mood and incredibly rude. Talked to us like we were dumb. He made a girl cry while she was presenting. Do yourself a favor and don't take him if u don't tolerate disrespect.

Horrible. Asking him questions was painful, it seemed like he was bothered to answer, most of us were genuinely scared to ask questions. The workload itself is not too bad, but his communication and attitude are. Usually, I take these ratings w/ a grain of salt, but I wish I hadn't with this professor. This class truly made me hate the semester.

SO RUDE. Has an attitude if you ask him questions or try to have him clarify things. For someone who's job is teaching, he seems like he absolutely hates it.

DO NOT TAKE THIS PROF. WORST professor I have encountered since starting at FIT. He made it a point to call out the female students to embarrass them, would not accept any academic accommodations, and talked down to all of his students. He thought the entire class was stupid because he laughed when we answered one of his questions incorrectly.

Flat-out rude and disrespectful. He will never accept he is wrong. He has made students cry because he is extremely intimidating and the class is not a comfortable environment. Majority of this class he will watch you like a hawk silent with a judging look on his face. After the 4th week, he doesn't help you anymore because this is a studio class.

His grading system does not go according to what you actually get. He gave me a lower final grade although I have always gotten higher grades. His grading is based off whatever he thinks of you overall.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. I had to get surgery and missed class which I got a doctor's note for. My other professors accepted this except for Jeffery and he failed me. As a professor he is rude, a harsh grader, and mean to students. He requires participation in class but will laugh at you if you get something wrong.

Do not take this professor. Worst class I have ever taken at FIT. Consistently receive C, D grades on discussion posts when I am following all the grading criteria. Mcgraw Hill Connect assignments take up to 2 hours each and are extremely repetitive and useless. I took this course as an elective and regret it completely. DON'T TAKE HIM.

I was so excited to take this class until it started. He requires you to participate in every lecture or your grade will suffer, even if you raise your hand he's rude. While he doesn't give out difficult homework assignments because they're through the textbook in my opinion any assignment that he creates is a mess. Please don't take this class!!!

The professor barely goes over materials and would rather have the students talk about current events that he will then use as an excuse to rant. Two-thirds of the class is wasted by this. Then, when it is time to discuss the textbook assignment on McGraw-Hill, he'll skim over it because "we're supposed to know" as if it's not an intro class.

The most cold and unapproachable professor. I received only A's the entire semester but received an F on one assignment though I followed the guidelines meticulously. I met with him to talk about the assignment and he was way too smitten. It almost felt like a power flex. He didn't even look at my assignment after revising it. Too bad he's tenured.

Such a terrible professor who doesn't want his students to succeed. Do not take this class.

I tried very hard to like him mostly cause I felt bad that most people disliked him. But I really could not. He demands a lott of participation. Classes get really boring and he doesn't go chapter by chapter it's all a big mess. Oh he's also sexist. He fr said “all women want is to be adored.” There's a reason his rating is low. Do not take him!!!

He's so stubborn and does not care about his students nor their future. He expects what he expects and doesn't care what you think or innovative approaches going on in the industry. Not good
