He is clearly the best teacher there. Get him if you can. Sadly, he's not teaching this Fall, but I hear he will be back this Spring. He gives tons of extra credit and getting lower than an "A" is hard to do. The only thing he can do to improve his WEBCT is to try to lower the bandwidth. Other than that, he is the ideal teacher.

Dr. Ramsammy is an awesome teacher. He is very knowledgable on the subjects he teaches. Although the content is pretty tough, he helps to make it easy to understand. He teaches solely from memory, never cracking the book. He is also VERY fair with his students. I really enjoyed learning from him because he made the topics so interesting.

Finally, a professor who is genuine, caring, and funny. He spend his time making lots of games and quizzes for us to learn. He takes care of us, by trying to find ways for us to improve our understanding, making drag and drop games of lab images. He speaks to all of us with respect, a rare quality. Take him!

Dr. Ramsammy is very tricky because he will tell you to study one thing and then give you another on test. Those students who said nice things about him must have cheated because none of what they said is true. If he knows you he might give you extra points if you're close to a higher grade but if he doesn't know you, oh boy, you're in trouble.
