Definitely a prof I recommend. Grading was extremely fair, tests were easy if you come to class or spend some time looking over it. He was so easy to understand and spoke clearly. 5 exams, but he only counts 4. so the 5th is optional. assignments are so easy! It's hard not to do well on them. Plus he usually curves the class at the end.

H.S. level assignments, pretty easy tests. Lectures are pretty dull. He eventually decided to post them to webCT as long as class attendence stayed high. Gives 5 tests but only takes 4 grades, so if you screw one up you get another chance. Optional final if your happy with what you have.

Never used the textbook, I'd always went to class because I liked it, but you could get away with skipping it no problem. You get to drop a quiz and exam grade, so he grades easy too.

Dr. Bomser is an an excellent writer, scientist, and mentor as well as possessing original scientific ideas and hypotheses. He's single-handedly discovered the healing power of green tea, white tea, black tea, red tea, oolong tea, blue tea, rose tea, and, of course, chocolate tea. His guidance in the laboratory is unparalleled and a tour de force

Dr. Bomser is not a good adviser or mentor and would not recommend students join his lab. His pedestrian approach to science has meant that not one former student in ten years has pursued a post-doc or has a lab. He does not train students to be independent researchers.

Dr. Bomser is the best professor I have ever had. He is caring, funny, accessible and he teaches the material in such a way that makes it fun and easy to understand. He is very clear on what you need to know. I genuinely wish I could take every class with him.

Dr. Bomser is very chill and a good teacher. Class isn't madatory and all lectures are posted online, but it's worth it to go in person. He doesn't make you buy the textbook. 4 exams, 6 labs. All labs are online and super easy. Love this guy!

Super nice, caring professor. Posts lectures, online labs, and 4 exams (open note, your worst score exam gets dropped at end of semester). He loves to answer questions in class and values people's attendance. Very knowledgeable and funny. Easy class if you do your work

Prof. Bomser was an amazing guy and one of my favorite professors at OSU. He genuinely cares about the material and he is very accessible outside of class. He records and posts all lectures if you are unable to make it to class. He brought us all donuts one day and makes it known he appreciates us showing up to class. Tests are straightforward.

By far my favorite professor that I have had at OSU. The content is not always the easiest, but Dr. Bomser is incredible at explaining hard concepts. He genuinely cares about his students and is very personable. I cannot recommend him enough.

Professor Bomser was a really great professor that was super will to work with me to get where I needed to be. Although lectures are not mandatory I recommend attending, I got a lot out of them and really enjoyed. One thing I would say is beware of the TAs they were big sticklers when grading labs. Overall great option for the natural science GE.

Professor Bomser is not only engaged and interested in the material he teaches, but he goes above and beyond to display care for each and every student in his class. Even in a large lecture setting, I felt cared for and respected by him. He is understanding and down to earth, and truly unlike any professor I've had previously. Would recommend!!

I looked forward to Professor Bomser's lectures week to week and he genuinely made me care more about my nutrition. I never expected to like a class I took to fulfill a gened so much but Bomser made his lectures really engaging and interesting and he'd actually go into entertaining random tangents about his life. Highly recommend taking his class.

My favorite professor. 4 exams, last one is optional if you're ok with your grade of the first three. there are labs every week but they're pretty simple. Yeah, I just liked the class, he's really cool and funny. He really appreciates people showing up, even though attendance isn't mandatory, so please show up if you're taking his class.

Such a good class and professor! Your grade only consists of 4 online exams open note and labs about every week. Almost every Friday class was moved online. He cares about his students and doesn't act like he's superior because he's the professor. Attendance is optional. Funny to listen to as well.

He is truly kind man that has a passion to teach. The class have easy online exams that you take on your own time and structured work that is super manageable. We had take home labs that weren't exactly my favorite, but it was connected to the material.

Genuinely my favorite class I've taken this semester. He teaches tricky material in a way that's super easy! He's also just a super fun lecturer. I think I'm going to try to take another one of his classes in college. 10/10 guy.

AMAZING TEACHER. So sweet and the lectures were actually really enjoyable. All labs are online take-home and all the exams are online take-home as well. Seriously not a hard teacher at all and he also cancels classes frequently.

Professor Bomser is my favorite professor. He is so kind, and he cares for people. The class is easy as long as you listen, and do the weekly labs. The class is fun, and he would always make us laugh. I took away a lot, and if you are looking to get a good grasp on Nutrition as a whole, this is for you!

He is a really nice guy, and I would definitely go to lectures, and he usually cancels the Friday lectures. But I do find the exams a little difficult to complete within the time frame. But, overall the class was very simple and straight forward.

Really great guy. Lectures are easy to understand and posted online (attendance is not taken). Funny and caring. Also really accessible outside of class, he gives out his phone number in the syllabus and when I had problems with a lab he responded immediately and was very accommodating. Easy A.
