This guy is brilliant, i wish he could teach personally, but with 2100 students.

Cool and good ****

Great Prof, Great Course!

provides good examples (most of the time....)

He's actually pretty entertaining in person. Very interesting course material.

Funny guy, test can be nasty

I saw him in person once, he does exist.

Great course, makes it very understandable and interesting. Entertaining.

makes great analogies to make concepts easier to understand.

nice prof, when you actually go and see him. Reviews are useless

Very good use of various multimedia resources for different learning styles

Boring videos but courseware and posted transcripts are useful, hard tests

Dr.Day was a great teacher. He was very thorough and provides great examples!

Santa Clause! Great sense of humour.

This is the easiest science course ever. The arts people should stop complaining

Super teacher!! VERY knowledgable! Entertaining personal stories!

WIked Prof

Great prof, entertaining, relates to students

Old tests.... Old tests... practice

OK hello what kind of class is on video tape? he thinks he is doing us a favour by not having large classes but some people learn better when it is an actual person...the videos made me sleep. Courseware sucked...at least get us a textbook to buy! fun

he seems like a nice

LOVE DICK DAY

not helpful, yet teaches easy classes.

How are other people saying that Day is difficult and unhelpful? His courses are only easy because of the relative facility with which he makes the transitions from topic to topic. In my opinion, this guy is the epitome of what all professors should

Dr. Day's course was fun and easy, but it might be challenging for non science students. Study and learn the material inside out, rather than memorizing questions from previous tests.

He seems nice... on video.

dick day represent yeah yeah video prof what?!

He's awesome, he cracks joke in videos and is a really approachable interesting man in person. I am not a science student and i easily go the material, maybe just put a little effort in and try!

I really enjoyed this class. I thought the video lectures were a great idea. It beat having to sit in a huge lecture hall where half of the time you can't see anything. His stories were a little freaky though.

He's really good... very funny, makes the class easy to understand and interesting.

alright, stilll

Very nice guy, funny, good prof, reminds me a lil of Santa Claus hehe

Can you say BORING? Video lectures suck... oh yeah since his lectures are in the custom courseware (basically word for word), no point going to class!!!!

Very helpful teacher, if you go see him!! I had a few questions, took a trip to his office and he explained them all to me. Yes the lectures are a little dry and slightly out of date, but all the material is in the courseware!

I see his face on a screen 3 times a week then i see him in person and i feel like i know everthing about him but he doesn't know me at all. you can only take so much of some guys forehead.

I LOVE Dr. Dick Day! He is an amazing teacher and a very intelligent man. He breaks things down in his lectures to make them very clear & often provides examples to help you remember. He has made the information available online, and genuinely cares :)

The best psych class ever, after 1AA3, loved all the personal touches he added to make sense of the material. The info was so interesting that you didn't really have to study

Dr Day is the BEST TEACHER EVER! He really loves his subject and his students. We want him to be our grandfather... sweetest guy ever! :)

The multiple choice is VERY tricky. Did anyone else notice that he has more hair in the 1AA3 lectures?

Sorta makes the best of a bad situation. Videos and MC exams are not a great way to learn. Good memory and guessing skills will lead to good mark. I got A by studying the stuff on the site the night before...have since forgotten everything.

It's a shame that we have those video lectures because Dr. Day would likely be a great teacher in person. Whenever you are unsure of something, don't hesitate to go ask him questions. He's very welcoming.

A little sciency, but necessary. following psych classes are much more interesting. would prefer that he teaches live instead of videos. nice guy-very friendly. enjoyed the course.

Awesome prof!

Loved the class so much. Video lectures make this class a breeze. You never have to worry about missing a class or two. Beats reading 100s of text book pages. The videos are hillarious and the exam isn't tricky if you know your stuff.

I wasn't really sure how to rate Dr. Day, however decided on 4's. His teaching and videos can be interesting, however there is simply no point in going to class to watch them. You can get A's simply by memorizing the courseware 2 days before the exam.

Yeah. He's a decent prof. As long as you study all the material he gives. Never formally met him. ONLINE QUIZZES are KEY!

amazing

Nice guy, easy to talk to, HARD Exams for the Personality course

Amazing prof. The video lectures are awesome. So clear!! He's a cool guy.

Very interesting course, very clear. Lectures were coherent, although exams were difficult. overall a great course to take

Exams are like IQ testing!!!!!

His exams are overly hard.

Needs to make tests less difficult.

Great prof, caused me to switch majors into psych. His questions arent as bad as everyone says if you study his practice Q's

Amazing prof!!

awesome prof, interesting course, and multiple choice weren't that hard. Video lectures could put me to sleep once in a while but courseware was all i needed

I think Dr. Day is one of the best lecturers that McMaster has to offer. In this course (Personality) it is not a video, as in intro psych, and his lectures in person are interesting and exciting and made the course come alive. Personality is a great elective and I would recommend for sure!!

Great guy!

He's cute

Amazing prof. Great lecturer. REALLY nice. One of the best I've had so far.

good prof. Tests/midterm not easy but fair. Do lots of online questions!! Interesting lectures.

He is awesome, and really helpful

great course

NO MORE VIDEO LECTURES! THEY ARE 20 YEARS OLD- HAVE YOU SEEN DICK DAY RECENTLY!!! THE CLASS IS GREAT, BUT WE SHOULDNT PAY SO MUCH TO WATCH OLD VIDEOS OF DICK SITTING IN HIS OFFICE 20 YEARS AGO.

No Comments

If you've only seen him in the 1A/AA videos, you ain't seen nothin'. As a lecturer Dr. Day is as good as it gets. He does his best to make class interesting and enjoyable. Just don't expect a free ride with 3 multiple choice tests, they aren't easy.

Amazing prof.

Excellent prof, even though I only see him through a tv screen. Very accessible. Maintains a great website and responds to emails remarkably quickly. Great prof overall, and funny too!

good prof

he seems super nice, and like a really cool guy... DICK YOU'RE MY IDOL!!!!!!

Probably the best prof at Mac EVER! Really great attitude! You gotta love this dude!

His exams are quiet tricky and hard but he is a nice prof.

I took his course so long ago some of you others probably weren't even born yet. He was amazing. So much so that I pattern my teaching style after his (yes, I'm rated on this site as well). Dick, you're the best.

Dr. Day is kind and eager to help his students. His video lectures are actually funny (be sure to watch out for how he's MUCH younger and less bald in the later video lectures, plus the fact that he SMOKED in some of the videos!! hilarious). his exams are hard but there is no shortage of effort on the department's part to help you to understand.

Took course ~10 years ago... sure you are still watching Martin Short in the same videos! Created a great system to teach the country's biggest class at the time (1600 or so was it?). Your experience then (and now) depends a lot on the quality of your TA. I was lucky and mine was fabulous.

Dr.Day the best prof. at Mac. He is willing to help out his students, wants them to suceede but his tests are very very hard, mind you that they are all MC questions.

hard to judge him just from the video lectures, i think theyre boring as hell, just try not to get the 830 lectures.

I've heard him speak outside of the video lectures and he's a really great guy and I'm sure he's an awesome prof in person but the video lectures bored me! I guess I just don't learn from watching a person on a screen. But the material was interesting and it was a pretty good course overall.

If you have a chance take his personality course, you get to see him in person! Great guy, even posts recordings of his lecture on the course website in case you miss a class.

Video lectures not all that appealing, however the prof as a person is very helpful! I think he goes above and beyond to help his students. How many profs at mac spend 20% of their coursewear on how to study and how to succeed. A very helpful prof!!!!

Dr. Day is brilliant, clear, organized, and helpful. His website has a database of sample questions that are invaluable for study, as well as mp3s of the lectures.His sense of humour, concise explanations, and compelling speaking style make the lectures fly. This course, on personality, is the most interesting I've ever taken.

Interesting to listen to

A tough prof (his tests are tough) but he is better than other profs teaching this class. His exams are all multiple choice, so you don't have to worry about doing assignments or writing huge answers

Even the the video lectures are sometimes dry and an 8:30 timeslot is miserable, this is an excellent class and the prof does a good job explaining material.

His test and exam were trickster and the video lectures were booooooooooooooooooooooring but he was a nice guy and I thought the material was interesting. He should update the videos lol.

I love the MC tests, and I thought the video lectures covered everything we needed to know. I like the way he's set up the course, and I found the custom courseware of much value. He's extremely nice, and super helpful!

i never had him in 1a03 because i took it in the summer. i had him for 2b03 and he's hilarious! we had 2 tests, and the first one i got 65% (i studied so hard for it) and the second one i got 87% (i barely studied for this one)... but yeah, his multiple choice q's are pretty tricky. he's probably the best prof i've had so far.

Dr. Day is a great prof.The custom courseware is super useful and easy to understand,and the website was a big help with studying.I think he did an awesome job on the video lectures, and the transcripts meant that I could get an awesome mark without taking a single note in class!The only people I know who didn't like the course were total slackers.

RAWKS

i had the video lectures in 1a03 as well, and it hasn't gotten much different this semester. the videos allow you to not take as much notes, but then again you're not as interested in class, which is where it really matters. overall pretty good prof and friendly when you meet him in person. maybe i'll actually get the live version in next years.

This class rocked. The courseware is like a para-phrased textbook! This was the only course where I got a 95% on one of my exams! Dr.Day is a nutbar in a good way.

Although the midterms were on the difficult side, the final was a breeze! Looking at previous midterms and doing the online questions REALLY help. As many have mentioned, the videos do get kind of dry, but he's a very good speaker and his lessons are clear and structured. If you use the resources he provides for you, you'll do MORE than well.

I really enjoyed this course! Dr. Day taught us all the personality theories you can read in all the self-help books on the market right now. The textbook must be read in order to get an A+.

He's so cute! I love his videos...he makes psych so interesting! I would totally recommend him to anyone

As the Associate Dean of Science he was AWESOME!!

Whatever you're paying this guy, it's not enough.

Amazing prof. His tests and exams are all MCQ. You have to know the material really well in order to get good marks, must have done the readings timely and not the day before. Great teaching style.

**** is an amazing psych professor. very knowledgeable and helpful. even though i haven't taken any courses with him since first year psych (on video), 3 years later, i still keep in touch with him.

Dr. Day is amazing prof but his courses are not for the faint hearted. You really need to keep up with the readings and do your readings well ahead of time not night before the test otherwise you're screwed. If you studied hard you will find his tests challenging but fair. It's all multiple choice and well spread out, not just few questions.

Dr. Day loves teaching and makes the subject matter enjoyable. You got to love his socks with sandels

Wonderful professor. Started off as just another elective, and suddenly I formed a new found love for personality, and psychology in general. Extreme knowledgeable and creative individual, who truly has a passion for teaching.

Dr Day is a fixture at McMaster. He has been here forever and he seems like a celebrity. He is an absolutely amazing prof. He knows what you're going to ask before you even say the second word of a question. And when he does answer he is entirely knowledgeable and always has a life example to offer. Love him

Day is one of the best profs at mac. Even if you dont remember the materials, it is hard to forget his examples. I am in my 3rd and I still rememeber his examples from 1st yr! His tests are not hard if you study for them. But they are tricky - Need to read b/w the lines. Overall he is he is simply amazing. I never met a person who d.n like Dr. Day

LOVE HIM!

Dr. Day is a great prof!! Going to his lectures is like listening to a story, not like work at all! He records all of his lectures so if you will never miss a class. Material is also very interesting. My favourite prof. I plan on taking all the courses he teaches :)

AMAZING PROF!!!!

Amazing prof, by far the best i've had at mac. Uses his experiences to really make his point. Very knowledgable and passionate about what he does.

amazing professors clearly explains all the concepts and theories. makes sure that everyone understands what he he is talking about

Very dedicated. Does not actively research in order to focus on teaching which is a rarity in the academic world. One of the most active and engaging professors going.

He is one of the best profs I have ever had! He was extremely interesting and helpful. His tests were super hard but it still ended up being my favorite class. I am definitely looking forward to taking his personality class!

Great to listen to! Very clear and easy to understand. Tells great stories. Makes the class interesting. All you have to do is take good notes, do his practice tests over and over and you will get an A. That's what I did and aced his class :)

Taken 3n03, 3cc3, 2b03, 1a03/1aa3 with him. Got an A+ in all. By FAR, best lecturer at Mac. Few would dispute this. Amazingly comfortable up there, very entertaining, and knowledgable. Only prof where I've actually taken a class for the prof. Tests are all MC... not everyone does well, but if you're smart, pretty easy as long as you study

The best prof I have ever had, completely dedicated to teaching. Unbelievably interesting, blends the nuts of bolts of the suject with relevant examples from today. Psych wasn't my major, but I took every Dr Dick Day course I could take. Sometimes his MC tests got tricky considering the time. For example "Which one of these is not unimportant ?"

Best Prof I've ever had. Do his practice questions and you will kill the course!

I took 2B03 last term, and now 3BA3. Dr. Day is phenomenal. He is an amazing lecturer. Probably the best I have encountered in my 4 years. His tests are challenging, kind of tricky sometimes. I disliked not having practice questions for 3BA3 but it was understandable considering the course is quite new. Anyways, AMAZING prof! Take his course!!

BEST PROF I'VE EVER, EVER, EVER HAD. I love him. And positive psychology was probably the most relevant course I've taken at McMaster. Kudos to Dr. Day for making psych so awesome akfjhlaksjfh

best prof ever!

Good prof, sometimes difficult tests, but overall good prof.

I have taken almost all his classes. - personality, attitudes and believes, abnormal, forensic, positive psych (no longer offered), and he is hands down my favorite prof at MAC. He is a great teacher! The material interesting and the tests aren't too difficult if you have gone to class and read the text book. Awesome prof!

I LOVE HIM!!He's a wonderful prof! Makes going to class enjoyable and you will ace this class!

Best prof EVER!! I love psych, and to be honest I'm not 100% sure if I love it due to content or because of him!! His classes are not easy but he gets you so interested it makes you want to study and do well!

He's a great professor - really enthusiastic! However, a lot of questions are drawn from the extremely long textbook. A bonus: he records his lectures and always posts the powerpoints online!

Amazing prof! One of the best I've encountered at McMaster so far! Extremely helpful and approachable, and explains everything in detail.

Really good prof in that he thoroughly makes use of every resource (lecture, courseware, textbook, online notes, recordings, website). Particularly liked how he handled 2AP3 by dispelling stereotypes about people w/ mental disorders.

Best prof at mac so far. Hilarious, interesting and knows what he's talking about,

Great prof!

Had Dr.Day for 5 courses now, hands down best prof i have had at Mac. His lectures are enjoyable, if there was one prof i ever connected with it was him. All MC tests that can be tricky but he doesn't trick you with course material he is very helpful giving you all the information possible

My favourite professor ever. I always experience "flow" when he teaches (Positive psych students know what I'm talking about!)

I loved this course. I took 2AP3 in the fall, and was delighted to have Dr. Day again for personality. Even though he offers recordings, I still found myself attending every 8:30am class of his. Very fun prof, I plan to take another one of his courses in the future.

Amazing prof! Even though he posted his lectures online he was so amazing I went to class anyway. Such a good speaker

Amazing prof. Explains with so much clarity, his tests are a little hard but you can do great if you study. His practice quizzes are very helpful!

Amazing professor, his lectures are concise, straight to the point and very interesting. Best prof I had in the psychology department for sure. His tests are fair and easy to do well in!

Dr. Day is a great man. He has been teaching this course for over 20 years at Mac. He is tenured and is a National M3 teaching fellow highly regarding amongst his peers. He is very passionate about what he teaches. He is technical. Read the required textbook readings and make notes (they aren't long). Hard exams. Practice Q's!!!

Dr. Day is one of my favourite professors at Mac. He is a great lecturer, his tests are fair and relatively easy to do well in. Make sure to do lots of questions from his question bank online as he reuses a lot of them on the tests.

had him for 2BO3. honestly, so far the best prof i have ever had at mac. so helpful and approachable. always making sure students understand and get good grades! amazing!

He is by far one of the best professors I have come across at Mac. I was really discouraged to take another Psych course after first year, since Psych 1X03/1XX3 is a hot mess, but I am so glad I took his course. Make detailed lecture notes, read the text, (do the quizzes!!) and you're gold.

The greatest professor I have ever come across. He speaks so clearly and makes everything that he is teaching interesting and valuable to you. He is extremely helpful if you have any questions and is seriously rooting for you to get a good mark in his course. If you study the lecture content, the practice quizzes and the textbook you can do great.

Amazing professor. Crystal clear and very interested in the content.

He is a very good prof,he made the content interesting and clear.

the best prof at Mac. His lecture was interesting and helpful.

He is a brilliant professor with a flawless teaching style. His supplementary quiz questions, podcasts, lecture slides, and lecture handbook ensures we have the material necessary and more to succeed. He is passionate, engaging and wise, and is by far the best professor I have ever had.

Awesome prof. Very knowledgeable!

Amazing professor!

One of the best profs I've had at Mac so far! His pod casts are helpful if you've missed class. Make sure to read the textbook because he tests you on random stuff in the text. Answer the quiz bank he provides the class, majority of the questions (or similar ones) on the exam/midterm is on there. Overall, enjoyable class! :)

Amazing prof. Very interesting to listen to. Cares about his students a lot.

intelligent, passionate, and an excellent speaker. This man deserves the world.

Amazing Professor! His passion about the subjects he taught made me excited about the material that we were learning. Such an amazing guy as well :)

Great professor. I really like that he was able to post all his lecture online. Extremely helpful!!! Exams are not that easy. Multiple choice is confusing and the class average wasn't that great. Class was a lot of fun and I would take another class with Dr Day, anyway!

Dr. Day is an amazing prof!! Makes class so interesting! Loved going to class; even asked to do research with him but he does not do any. Loved his classes!!!!

I've taken every one of Dr. Day's classes because honestly he is the best professor by far at McMaster. He records all his lectures keeping in mind some student just can't get to class everyday and it allows you to make the best notes. He provides practice questions as well. Awesome prof, if you study you'll definitely get a B or higher.

I've taken 3 courses with him so far and loved every single one of them! He is the ideal professor. :)

Great lecturer, incorporates hilarious personal examples into material. The question bank is key.

Best prof ever. Interesting course with lots of laughs. Very clear way of teaching. Study hard though and use the question bank for studying or you will not do so well on the exams as they can be tricky.

VERY DIFFICULT QUESTIONS. Mid terms are very hard and it is difficult to get anything above a C-. Prof needs to ease up on the difficulty with the questions

A very kind, helpful and informative prof. His lectures are definitely worth attending. Tests are very difficult.

By far the best professor at Mac. His lectures are never boring and he records all of them and posts them online. His exams are a bit tricky, but he provides the class with practice questions and most of them show up on the exams. I've taken all of his classes because they are so interesting and he's such a good prof.

He is a very nice and understanding prof, podcasts every lecture and his exams are fair

He is such an amazing prof to listen to, his lectures are so interesting and he's very well spoken. But if you're looking to get a good grade, you're going to have to work you never have before. Extremely difficult exams. He's really big on statistics...

I loved the lectures, he used great examples to illustrate his concepts- but tests were super hard. He provides practice tests, but they don't help unless you really know your stuff. I'd recommend creating a fake test with all the concepts prior to a test, that way your brain will better recognize the way the questions are posed on the test.

My favourite professor at Mac. His podcasts are extremely helpful when you can't get to class. Brings interesting guest lecturers. Yes, his tests are difficult but he has a huge database of sample questions which you should do consistently. The sample questions are super helpful and will easily help boost your test marks.

I took 3 psych courses with him and got A+ in all. He is very good at explaining concepts but his tests are challenging because they are unbelievably ambiguous. You have to choose one correct answer but at least 2 answers look correct. I didn't like him as a prof but his lectures are very useful even in future.

Finished personality with him and taking positive psychology right now. Very helpful in answering questions and clarifying details. His tests are pretty tough because the answers seem pretty similar to each other in that most of them seem right. His textbook questions are also pretty specific and I ended up guessing most of them.

Great lecturer, best prof at McMaster

This class was actually really hard :( I read the textbooks and attended every class but his midterm questions were very specific in regards to textbook that it was hard for me to fully recall all the details that I've read. He's a good professor whose passionate with what he does but this is definitely not a GPA booster.

Best prof ever

Excellent lecturer, but the tests are VERY difficult. Asks for details that are often insignificant.

Fantastic prof; I'm taking every one of his courses I have the pre-requisites for because of this class!

Great prof, it's clear he knows his stuff. The quiz bank is very helpful, but you really have to know your stuff to do well in his course.

Dr. Day was fantastic as a lecturer! However his tests killed me and I wasn't ready for the ridiculous amount of detail that would be asked. I literally failed his second midterm even though I went to every class and read the textbook. Otherwise.. awesome prof.

classes are podcasted but content is interesting so unless it is at 8:30, you should go to class. Quiz bank was helpful but you still need to know a lot of information. Textbook readings are tedious. I liked when he brought in speakers on mental illness in abnormal psych. Dr. Day is very on top of things and gets marks out quickly. Very up to date

he was very good

Dr. Day is one of the best profs at McMaster. He's got a natural talent to be very engaging and organizes his courses really well. I would highly recommend taking a course with him!! (I took 4!)

I love Dr. Day. He is such a wonderful speaker and is so knowledgeable on the subject that I'd love to take his other classes. The tests were tough and stat-heavy but still worth it, because the lectures (in my opinion) were great and always interesting. Never once fell asleep in that class, and that's saying something.

Dr. Day is THE best prof at Mac. He has great stories to aid his lectures and he's super helpful. Love him and he's such a cutie!

The content is so interesting - I really did learn a lot!! He podcasts every lecture!! He is a really clear and interesting lecturer too. However, my criticism for this course is the textbook content that appears on tests (SO RANDOM) - that's the only place I'd lose marks on tests. I don't understand what he looks for in the text. Otherwise great.

I have taken all of his classes, and he is an amazing prof. Yes, his tests are tricky, but if you study well and hard, you will do fine. I ended up with a 10 in his positive psych class. Highly recommend taking his classes!!!

Dr. Day is one of the best lecturers at Mac and also my personal favourite prof. I took both 2AP3 (abnormal psych) and 2B03 (personality). I wouldn't say these were easy courses because you do need to work hard, however, they were extremely interesting courses. He posts podcasts and also gives quiz banks in preparation for the midterms.

Great prof, hard tests. The lectures were very interesting. Tests were all m/c and I found them to be very challenging (coming from a student who got As in almost every other course). Be ready to read a lot of textbook.

This guy is a great prof. He's funny, kind, welcoming to students. His tests are brutally hard & there is no way I would be able to pass them without the lecture recordings. He asks VERY specific questions, so you pretty much need to know ALL the details about everything. The MC questions are very tricky and at times hard to understand

Dr. Day is an awesome prof. He knows a lot about psychology. I take his course every year because he teaches lots of psychology courses at MAC. If you want to do well on his test, you really need to do more exercises which he provides them on his website and they are really helpful. Also, you need to read the textbook before you go to the exam.

Dr. Day teaches so well on this course, but the tests materials are on details some of them. You really need to know the stuff well and understand them not just memorize them especially for the data he provides on lecture, it is testable in tests. But I take a lot of psychology courses with him, because he makes the psychology interesting

Just get ready to over-use a test bank for days before your midterm. His tests are very fair, considering he gives a test bank. His text book questions are difficult, but that's the only downside. He is a gem.

WOW! Seriously ONE OF MY FAVE PROFS AT MAC - FOR SURE. Ties with Ostovich for my fave psych prof at Mac, but he's a lot funnier, caring, and wise. Such a cool dude if you ever get to strike up a conversation with him. Extremely lecture heavy, but no group projects haha! Just the midterms and final. The test bank will be your best friend! Numbers!

Also took 2AP3 with him. This course has less stats and numbers but still both very content, research, and studies heavy. Know the deets! Overall, would take again though. Podcasted, and he's just SO AMAZING AND INSPIRATIONAL to listen to. Thank you Dr. Day for being an INCREDIBLE teacher and ENGAGING lecturer. Would take again!! 3

It's great to hear him talk. I read about him going off on tangents and I did not find this true at all. Everything is relevant. Tests are so hard, testing on incredibly tiny details and stats. Prepare to memorize. Very good for providing content - there's quiz bank, podcasts, course handbook (which is basically all lecture material written out).

Dr. Day is an absolute gem. Amazing lectures - I've not once fallen asleep in his class. His tests are not difficult if you use the resources he gives you, which is a lot of stuff (podcasts, test bank, handbook). He is so sweet and approachable, kinda wish he was my grandpa. He knows his stuff and is up to date on a lot of pop culture.

By far my favourite prof EVER. His lectures were so engaging and interesting to listen to! He really does everything in his power to help you succeed! Some of his test questions can be a little tricky, but that's expected with every psych course. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND

He's a great prof. He is very engaging, and always giving students an opportunity to ask questions. His tests can be tricky but if you study and go to his lectures/watch the podcasts, you'll do really well. There's always his quiz bank as well!! He tells some pretty great stories too

Dr. Day is a genius. Best prof at mac. He is nice but he will test you and you will learn.

Dr. Day's lectures are great - clear, organized, and interesting. His tests were typically fair, except the 10% of questions which were based on textbook readings (incredibly specific; you'd have to study the textbook for hours to know the answers, and for only 10% it didn't make sense to even bother with the textbook). But great prof overall.

Dr. Day is fantastic. You'd be hard pressed to find a student of his that active dislikes him and his courses. The content is interesting, the tests are fair, and he has many interesting stories to tell.

Very interesting lectures and tells a lot of interesting stories. Great prof! The textbook readings are really boring and the test questions are very specific about the readings.

Dr. Day is an amazing professor and makes it worth going to lecture! His class consists of two midterms and a final exam. You really need to study all throughout the year if you want to do well, and keeping on top of the textbook readings is a must. His online practice quizzes are very helpful.

Dr. Day is amazing. I've had 2 of his classes and he's my favorite prof for psych courses. Interesting material and well presented. His tests are fair, but hard. Definitely helps if you go to class.

As a prof i LOVE him. He's amazing at teaching and definitely has a lot of perspective and great teaching skills, he is very captivating to listen to. his classes are podcaster so not really mandatory to go, but its honestly easier to listen to it in person rather than a recording. His tests I found very difficult though and very hard to do well

If I wrote a book I would seriously have this guy be the voice for the audio version. I love listening to this man talk. The class is extremely interesting and he is passionate, well informed and happy to be teaching it! I love these lectures. The tests however? Be prepared for tricky questions, double negatives, misleading questions, all that!!

Very good at lecturing, you can tell he is genuinely passionate about the topics discussed and isn't just doing it because he has to. Tests are very hard, but if you memorize all the past tests and go over all the questions posted, it's very possible to get an 80.

I loved this course so much, he presented the information in such a great way and kept everyone engaged. He's also a very friendly and inviting man who seems like he's always out to help. His test however are another story. They're very statistic heavy and rely heavily upon your memorization of the course content versus your actual understanding.

Dr. Day's lectures changed my approach to life and school. This class isn't easy, but it's certainly worth it.

Dr Day is THE BEST! If you enjoy psych and are looking to actually learn / do not mind putting in some work in order to achieve a good grade then you need to take a course with him! he is so knowledgeable, and makes all material accessible / fair game. I wouldn't say it is EASY to get a good grade in his class, but you can if you put in effort!

I did very poorly in the course, but he is an AMAZING lecturer. However, your mark is based on 3 tests, all multiple choice, and his questions are incredibly difficult. You are expected to remember pretty much every little detail in the course content. About 18 % of students failed the final exam, average in the low 60s.

his lectures are AMAZING--i made sure to never miss any even tho they were podcasted. his testing is v specific about details from lecture, but hes clear about what he wants you to know. only real complaint is that his textbook questions are too specific for how much reading we have to do, but there werent many TB qs so i didnt mind that much!

Dr. Day is a fantastic prof, he's insanely charismatic & great to listen to. His class come with a podcast too. Only complaint is his tests are SO hard. Every question has all of the above & none of the above. idk if i would take his class bc i know it will cost me a good grade. He usually has practice quizzes online but they didnt work for my sem

Amazing guy, very funny and entertaining lectures, yet also very interesting.

Definitely do the readings when youre supposed to or else you'll fail.

A lovely prof. His voice is amazing, like a really good audio book spokesperson. Textbook questions can be hard. Understand his info clearly!

Dr. Day is by far my favourite prof at McMaster. It is evident that he knows what he is teaching, and is passionate about it. The way he delivers lecture content makes you want to attend his lectures. He also makes his lecture materials as accessible as possible (podcasts, audio recordings, and power-points are all made available on avenue).

Such an awesome guy, his lectures are super enjoyable and he explains things really well. His tests are impossible if you don't have the test banks, but other than that I really enjoyed his course.

Dr Day is a very good prof and clearly cares about the content he teaches but can be very tricky. The format of the course is a classic 2 midterms, 1 exam, all multiple choice with many all of the above and none of the above within the questions. This course takes dedication and you can do well if you give it attention.

Tests can be heavy, but if you've studied the material appropriately you'll do very well. An amazing lecturer and talks with passion. Don't get fooled by the wording!

What a gem. Dr. Day is by far one of my fav profs. Took it as an elective and though it was not easy, it was a class that made you think. You can't just go to lecture and think you'll do well on the tests. Listen to the podcasts again and make detailed notes, read chapters which may seem like a lot but you can do it. Otherwise not an easy B or A.

Best professor I have ever had, although the tests are quite difficult.

I absolutely loved every class Ive taken with him. You gotta get used to how his tests are and then you will be able to get an A with no problem.

this was my favourite course I've taken, Dr. Day is an amazing lecturer! definitely requires a lot of work to do well though

Hands down best prof I've ever had.

the most amazing professor. READ THE TEXTBOOK.

This man is by far the best professor, or even teacher, that Ive had in my whole life, which he made a profound difference in by inspiring my love of learning. He told us so many fascinating stories in his lectures, which I am going to rewatch for leisure. I still, from time to time, thank God that I had the opportunity to have him as a professor.
