Really kool guy, very good at explaining, interesting lectures (i actually did all the reasings)... He only gives like 8 As in the class, but he curves the final grades, so you should be ok :) Gives everyody the participation points, a couple essays 5 quizes and a MC final

he is a very good prof; help put students alot; very understandable; not that hard grader; interesting

funny guy; cool; helpful; knows how to teach; class is pretty interesting; he gave 5 exams, n if u miss one he'll give u a make up exam; 2 essays; pretty good grader;

Amazing class with an amazing professor. Maybe its because its his first year teaching, but I think he is just a great guy. VERY CLEAR AND VERY FAIR GRADER. 5 quizzes 2 essays 1 final gave everyone 100% ofthe pts for participation even if they didn't speak once. Hes a young indian man from the uk & brings an awesome accent along. Great honors clas!

Great teacher if you're looking for a good grade in the class. Do you work and read the chapters. The quizzes, final and essays are pretty easy too. He's a very fair grader and really does care about the students. He went out of his way to make sure everyone in the class got a fair grade after giving 1 hard quiz. Great guy, easy A.

Very nice guya and makes a kind of boring topic interesting. He brings a fresh face to each topic every class. Not difficult, just wants you to understand the material

THIS WAS A REALLY INTERESTING CLASS AND SREEKUMAR IS AN AMAZING PROF. HE'S REALLY SMART AND IS GREAT AT DEBATING THE ISSUES WITH THE CLASS TO HELP US UNDERSTAND THE MATERIAL. HE GOES OVER EVERYTHING REPEATEDLY AND MAKES SURE YOU UNDERSTAND IT, HIS QUIZZES ARE EASY IF YOU DO THE READINGS, AND HE'LL GO OUT OF HIS WAY TO MAKE SURE YOU GET AN A.

Great professor. He is very helpful and friendly. He makes sure students understand the material. Only 2 take home essays, 5 quizzes and a final (all multiple choice questions.) The only thing is that the quizzes and final are cumulative, but if you read and take good notes you'll do fine.

Highly recommended. I enjoyed his class. His grade curve is unbelievable. I thought I was going to get an B+ or less but ended up with an A-. I guess it's also the effort he sees in you. Oh, and automatic 5 points for participation.

Absolutely one of the best professors I've had this term. He will challenge all your philosophical views and question if your morality is correct. He really makes you think and every class is really a gift. He has a great accent and a wicked curve. Turned my A- to an A! TAKE HIM!

GREAT PROF, MY SECOND TIME TAKING HIM. HIS CURVE DOES WONDERFUL THINGS FOR U'R GRADE. THE QUIZZES AREN'T EASY (TENDS TO ASK VERY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS) BUT IF U MAKE U'RSELF PAY ATTENTION AND PARTICIPATE IN CLASS (COURSE IT HELPS TO DO THE READING) U WON'T HAVE ANY TROUBLE WITH THE QUIZZES. ONLY HW IS THE READINGS AND 2 ESSAYS. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

AN AWESOME Professor and a great person to be around. His curve is RIDICULOUS, as long as you pay attention in class, you can pretty much guarantee an "A". He is very clear in his explanations, and is always willing to further discuss that which is unclear. His essays (three in total) focus on critical thinking, but the topics and interesting.

Great professor who I completely recommend! Interesting, helpful, funny, and insightful. Truly a professor who loves what he teaches. 5 multiple choice quizes are detailed, but if you pay attention and scan text they are a breeze. 2 or 3 take home essays are a couple of pages on interesting topics. 100% TRY TO GET INTO HIS CLASS!

Ease: 8/10 Helpful: 9 Fun of Class: 8 Funniness: 9 Attendance: Taken Work Amount: Several decent quizes, a final, and 2 short papers A: pretty easy Text: yes Overall: EXCELLENT and smart prof. Class was always interesting, discussions were hilarious at times, hes very fair w tests and a pretty easy grader w the papers. Funny guy too! Very recommded

Baruch is lucky to have a great prof. like mr sree. teaching here, hes extremely articulate and intelligent, but not snotty and always manages to turn ridiculous questions into something genius, gives great feedback and is quite a funny guy dont take him for a grade take him to learn something and you def. will. Baruch needs more prof. like him!!!

One word: GENIUS. Professor Sreekumar is by far one of my most influential professors, if not the ONLY influential professor I have. There is a reason why this is the second time I'm taking him. Overall easy grader, but as he himself said, it's not the grade that counts but what we get out of it.

hand down best prof. at baruch! you've got to be a total moron not to get an A in this class, although the material is hard, he breaks it down to easily digest and has a HUGE curve for the final grade, overall hes a genius.. he needs to be cloned 10x over!

not only is he sexy but hes a genius ..very hard to find take him!!

the BEST professor at baruch, very knowledgable you can throw ANY question at him and he'll spin your head with the answer he's amazing take him to learn something and he has an awesome grading system

A great guy, great teaching style, take him if you want a good grade and to learn

Excellent professor, very passionate and hilarious! Definitely take him, and you will get the benefit of learning simply for the sake of learning...and not so much a grade.

I have not had a single professor engage his material as wholeheartedly as Prof. Sreekumar. He always communicates concepts and complex belief systems in a variety of ways without sacrificing intellectual substance. Be warned: your other classes will become relatively agonizing once you realize what teaching and learning actually are.

He doesn't really care about attendance...just that you're doing the readings and understanding what's going on. His quizzes are easy as pie. Oh, and he's so funny.

Gr8!!! Prof

The GREATEST Professor I've ever had!! He has so much passion and knowledge and a great sense of humor. So cool; you can literally have a cigarette with him outside n just talk. Greatest curve system ever!!

I have never rated a professor before. That is how much I like this guy. He is hilarious and has amazing responses to peoples (often dumb) questions. He's the coolest dude and probably the best professor I've had at Baruch. Also, the only one that I can 100% say I would make out with. Which is something.

I LOVE THIS GUY!

EXCELLENT AND FUNNY!

TAKE HIM! AMAZING PROFESSOR AND YOU WILL GET AN A!

Professor Sreekumar is awesome. It is obvious from his lectures and clear concise answers to questions that he really knows his stuff and enjoys teaching it. Quizzes are tough, pay attention to lectures and take careful notes. Final is all questions from the quizzes. Great class, highly recommended.

Took him for Philosophy of Law and Crime and Punishment. He could be the Best Professor in this school. A Rhodes Scholar, with a level of humility that could make Saints blush. Crime and Punishment and Philosophy of Law will give you a solid grounding in issues you will face in Criminal Law, Torts, Property, and several other law school classes.

OMG. This professor is the BEST! He's so bright that he can argue an problem for the whole class. The class was never boring with his teaching style. In addition, no textbook needed, take good notes. And a CRAZY curve for everyone, which he called "grade inflation". TAKE HIM!

If you want to get good knowledge and a good grade, this professor is for you.The lowest grade that you can receive is B+.

Best professor ive ever had at Baruch. His class was so interesting i switched my minor to philosophy...yea that good.

Don't let his accent or quick speaking scare you away! He is understandable and very knowledgeable about the subject. He made the class interested and I was always paying attention and trying to note whatever he says down. I felt like I understood everything he said, and his grading policy is fair.

One of the best professors of all time. The class is really interesting, and Sreekumar is always entertaining, funny, and insightful. He's one of the most chill professors you'll ever meet. It's a great class, and you're a moron if you get lower than an A-.

truly incredible professor!!! brilliant and clever and funny and so dedicated and invested in his subject. explains all concepts in thorough detail!!! take him!!!!!!

An expert in his subject AND an expert at teaching. Not only does he know the subject but he knows how to convey it to his students clearly and make it interesting at the same time. If you are you previously had no interest in crime and punishment, he will make it interesting for you.

Professor Sreekumar is a great man. He is so nice and laid back about everything and you can easily tell that he is an expert in philosophy and really enjoys teaching it. He explains everything thoroughly and knows how to make philosophy interesting so if you pay attention in class, you will do great.

He is incredible! The textbook isn't even needed, just pay attention in class and you're perfect.

This professor is one of the few professors I've encountered at Baruch whom I wish I could take every semester. He explains the topics so well and there's always lively class discussion. Class participation comes so naturally and learning is guaranteed. My advice: take him!

POSSIBILITY THE BEST PROFESSOR IN THIS SCHOOL. I JUST GRADUATED FROM LAW SCHOOL. HIS AS GOOD AS ANY PROFESSORS I'VE HAD HERE, AND BETTER THAN ALMOST ALL OF THEM. TAKE EVERYTHING HE TEACHES. I had him for Philosophy of Law and Crime and Punishment. He will make you a more critical thinker; as a philosophy student or a business machine.

I highly recommend him. He is way more concerning with actually teaching the subject than giving you really hard assignments. His few essays and assignments are clear and concise and he is a very fair grader. It is a class where you will learn a lot and, assuming you don't slack off, will likely get an A.

I LOVE him! He is extremely friendly and well versed in the subject. He is able to come up with scenarios easily to make the philosophies easy to understand in real life scenarios. Definitely recommend, really helped develop my understanding of legal principles and shaped my political/legal outlook. DEFINITELY recommend!

He's AMAZING & AWESOME! The BEST professor I've ever had at Baruch. For Indian Philosophy, he gave us 4 quizzes + 2 essays + 1 final. He has insane cures at the end of the semester, and really wants you to do well. Readings don't help much, but show up to every class! Trust me - take him.

Few readings to do. Super easy quizzes as long as you take notes and read. Two short papers, and a final. He will make sure you do well in the class. Lectures are interesting, and he has a cool accent. DEFINITELY take him!

AMAZING !! TAKE HIM !! I AM BEGGING YOU !! TAKE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!! CURVES A LOT !!! 4 SIMPLE QUIZZES AND A FINAL !!! ALL THE QUESTIONS ARE STRAIGHT FROM THE HANDOUTS! LECTURES ARE CRYSTAL CLEAR. TAKE GOOD NOTES AND YOU WONT EVEN NEED THE HANDOUTS! SO CONSISTENT. DO NOT LET THE "LAW" PART SCARE YOU AWAY, I KNEW NOTHING PRIOR AND RECEIVED AN A!!!!

most brilliant professor at baruch.

All the hype is true. He cares that you learn, he is insanely good at teaching and making you think, and there are like four tests that are multiple choice and super easy. He honestly doesn't care for grades as much as the knowledge, and he is laid back, but engaging. And when you answer questions, be sure to you know how to support them.

Cool/awesome guy. 5 quizzes (he'll drop one), 2 essays (2 pages), & 1 final. I don't remember taking mid-term. He'll give you some other options, your class gonna have to decide. If you have good notes, you can get up to 90-95% on the quizzes and exams. He knows his staff and knows how to teach. You gotta show up and focus/take good notes.

One of the best professors at Baruch. Truly cares to make sure you are learning the material. . Listen in class and do a tiny bit of work and you are basically guaranteed an A. My semester there was no final because he went to India for winter break. Theres 4 quizzes only 3 count. And 2 essays which are short, simple, and interesting. Take him!!!!!

I really enjoyed Sreekumar's class! He has a weird grade policy, which makes it impossible for you to get lower than an A-. Definitely, take him!

Loved this class! it was my first honors class and I was worried about the work but I had nothing to worry about! its a discussion with a professor the whole time and super interesting. Attendance is optional but everyone comes because its that good. 2 papers (no limit), 3 quizzes and he gives a study guide before each one. Recommend to everyone.

Definitely the best professor I have had so far at Baruch. Highly recommended for a basic breakdown of criminal law theory. He breaks down the lecture clearly and thoroughly. None of the nonsense some of the other professors are known for, he does the job and does it well. Take good notes, read the book, come prepared, pay attention, get an A.

Definitely respected, if you've read the other reviews you'll see what I mean. I tried to sign up for another of his classes and it was full, so look to register early, he deserves all the praise he gets. Amazingly inspirational lectures and thought provoking delivery leave you walking away knowing that you learned something. Too bad it's full now.

This guy was GREAT. His lectures were not difficult at all to understand considering that the subject of Philosophy of Law can be dull. Hes made everything very clear to understand and he is very enthusiastic about what he teaches. I have heard nothing but good things about him since Ive taken him and would definitely take him again.

Professor Sreekumar is amazing, very inspirational and funny. Four quizzes and he drops the lowest quiz, there is a study guard before every quiz. And two papers. Very easy class, Learned a lot from him, totally change my perception of philosophy. Take him come to class and have a great journey in his class, you will not be disappointed

Skreekumar is the best professor I've had at Baruch. Incredibly engaging lectures and pushes you to express your point of view. PHI3020 can be a bit dry at points, but the discussions he fosters make up for it. Highly, highly recommend taking Skreekumar at least once during your time at Baruch

you couldn't get a B if you wanted to. this class is really easy. Easy A just take it as a liberal arts elective. his classes are also a lot of fun. you learn something new everyday and see the world differently. totally worth it. 4 quizzes 2 papers attendance no required

Need an elective for your honors requirement? Look no further! He gives 4 quizzes, drops 1. With his study guides you'll do just fine though anyway. There are also 2 essays, which he grades leniently (despite the seemingly daunting guidelines). Overall Sreekumar is one of the best professors at Baruch. I genuinely enjoyed and recommend this class.

He'll tell you that this course is really dull and difficult on the first day and to drop it - but don't be alarmed - this was probably one of the best college classes I've ever taken. He encourages participation, and though he doesn't drop your grade if you don't, you will get so much out of debating with him in class. Improved my argument skills!

This is by far the best professor I've had ever. I've taken four awesome classes, two law, two philosophy with him and now feel completely prepared for law school and to go into a courtroom should there be a need. Even if you aren't considering a career in law, I recommend taking his lectures as they will prove inevitably useful to most any career.

Professor Sreekumar is so intelligent and will blow your mind every single class. Show up, engage the material and really pay attention to the lectures, as you will learn the material quickly and you will be preparing for your assignments. 2 papers and a few multiple choice exams. If you engage the class, there is no reason not to earn an A.

Took him before but saw he was teaching another class, I had to take him again. He teaches buddhism in a clear way and wants to make sure students understand the material. Interesting class. had 3 quizzes (drops the lowest), and 2 papers.

Great class, especially if you need to get in an honors course. He clearly explains the topics and provides great study guides (textbook is also helpful) for the quizzes (of which he drops the lowest grade). Encourages class discussion and wants you to understand the material. Highly recommend taking it as one of the core classes

Very well spoken and knows how to bring points across to students in an understandable interesting way. Come to class listen, take light notes, and participate your ideas if you want. Read assigned readings if interesting and skim through and at least understand the ones you don't want to read. Study a bit for quizzes and do papers and get an A-/A.

although I didn't make it to many classes due to personal issues, he was very understanding and even let me make up a quiz ! buddhism can get confusing but between the readings and his lectures you grasp the information well. the papers were interesting, quizzes easy and straightforward, and professor is so smart and helpful !!! TAKE HIM !

Such an understanding professor. Makes sure that you get the best possible grade. Drops one quiz. Just do well on the papers which it is super easy to do. Thought I was going to do bad in the class based on my quiz grades, but did well on the papers.

absolutely adore him, this was the best class i've ever taken at baruch and i would take it again in a heartbeat. all the reading are interesting, the quizzes are easy and the essays are easy as well. take him, you won't regret it.

Sreekumar is simply an all time great. He's one of the rare professors at Baruch that'll actually increase your interest in his/her subject. On day 1 he will warn you that this class is dull & boring, but I'd definitely recommend staying. There's 3 quizzes (lowest is dropped & generous study guides for each) & 2 short essays, graded very fairly.

Really wish I chose to take this class before COVID hit. Of the 2 months of classes I had with him he was great. His lectures are engaging, and he clearly explains not only his view point on issues but also opposing viewpoints. He does a great job of managing discussion in the classroom whenever he poses a question. Would absolutely take again

Actually interesting lectures. Professor Sandeep is very knowledgeable and well spoken. One of the best profs at Baruch. He asks questions that will spark your interest in philosophy and make you think. 2 mc exams and 2 papers with no word count min/max and lenient grading. Textbook pdf can be found online.

Great lectures. Clear grading criteria. Gives study guides. Makes you actually interested in law. 10/10 would take again.

If you ever take advice from a stranger online, please let this be the time!!! I HIGHLY recommend him. I can't stress this enough. His lectures were genuinely interesting and he provides study notes that list what he went over in class. He assigned three take-home quizzes and two essays. I wish someone recommended him to me earlier. He's a gem.

He spoon-feeds you an A. lectures are great and there isn't pressure on you to participate; I got full participation just from showing up. There's 2 essays and he gives you 5 prompts to pick from for both. They can be as long as you want (never wrote more than 4pgs and got A's on both). He gives 3 quizzes and gives study guides with all the answers

Professor is super entertaining and very forgiving in grading. 2 quizzes and 2 essays (midterm and final) all very easy. You'd have to go out of your way to get below a B in this class. He gives out A's like candy.

Class is just 2 papers and 2 15 question quizzes. He's so kind and friendly. He literally gives As like crazy. I got a 66 on one of the quizzes and then a 93 on the other and still got an A on the class. Both papers I got a 95 and it's only around 2-3 pages.

This class only had 20 seats and literally filled up instantly, and for good reason. Professor Sreekumar is one of the best professor's at Baruch, period. He is extremely knowledgeable, well spoken, and interesting. Only 2 quizzes (you have the whole day to complete it and the answers are right in front of you), and 2 essays. Super lenient, easy A.

Online course, 3 quizzes he drops the lowest. Two papers, clear grading criteria, very lenient grader on essays. All lecture heavy, you take your own notes. But there will be study guides. He's nice, not sweet, keeps it professional. Easy A

This professor has been a real blessing in disguise. He helps you with everything and is easily accessible outside of class. His lectures are extremely though provoking and will learn a great deal. 10/10

Very straightforward and interesting class! His class has no final and no midterm, only 3 quizzes, 2 essays, and participation grade. He even gives out study guides for all of the quizzes that help a lot! Must take this professor!!

Amazing professor!!! He cares about his students and gives really good lectures. I learned a lot, and he was willing to help and clarify any questions/material. Only had 3 quizzes and 2 essays. Take his class!

His class is super interesting and is overall pretty easy. 3 quizzes(only counts highest 2) and 2 essays. You have to get used to his quizzes because they were a little tricky but the first one is also the hardest so don't get discouraged. Would for sure take his class again. His study guides were super helpful as well.

He will do whatever he can to give you an A. AND I MEANT THAT. Sreekumar must be the most well-spoken and knowledgeable prof I have had in a long time. I feel like this guy knows anything and everything about philosophy. The requirements for this class are VERY reasonable, and he teaches it in such an amazing storytelling way. Must take at Baruch.

super chill and easy going. graded by 2 quizzes (he gives 3 but the lowest is dropped) and two essays. class participation is out of 5 but I never participated and still got 5/5. definitely recommend!

Great Human Counted two highest quizzes out of 3 2 take home essays( 2weeks to finish) As long as you attend his lectures full participation credit. Great lectures. Does get confusing if you are not into Indian Philosophy. For Business major definitely recommend for elective for maintaining a good GPA.

makes the material so interesting and has a good grading policy. also provides study guides that can be broken down to simpler terms if you read them thoroughly! 2 essays and 3 quizzes, but drops the lowest one. realest prof i've had

2 essays, 3 quizzes, but 1 was optional (still cumulative) bc the semester was tight on timing. readings every week (mandatory & optional ones). honestly such a great professor, this is my 2nd time taking him and he never fails to amaze me. he's very forgiving about personal circumstances, and i'm so thankful to have had him for my last semester!!

Lecture was pretty heavy but his study guides helped with the two quizzes that he gave. He also curves great.

Truly an interesting class. 3 quizzes and he drops the lowest. 2 essays and they are graded based on if they make sense and are substantial. Just try and you will do good. The textbook is a bit complex but overall a great class.

Very chill professor. Doesn't make your life difficult. Makes it very simple to get a good grade.

VERY lecture-heavy. Don't really need to read book unless you don't understand a concept. 3 quizzes, 1 dropped (dont stress the first its the hardest) 2 essays (hard to not get a 90+) and amazing professor overall. He made the concepts extremely interesting, in a storytelling way, and made us laugh many times. Definitely recommend, fav class so far

Amazing class and professor! There are 2 essays (800–1000 words each) and 3 quizzes (15–20 questions each, lowest dropped, last is cumulative). Lectures and study guides cover all you need to know for quizzes. He takes attendance, and participation is 5% of your grade, so show up, speak up once in a while, take notes, and study—you'll do great!

Gave amazing lectures over the course of the semester. He's also extremely knowledgeable about law and is quite well spoken. Does everything in his power to give his students an A.
