Very good class. Lots of review
astro 10 is a breaze because scott is so good at reinforcing everything,11 is a little harder.
DUUUDEEE...this class is not hard. take notes, and then take tests everyday with the answers right in front of you. also, you he turns the lights off and you sit in a reclining chair while you look at the stars... make out time...haha
Scott is by far one of the coolest and best teachers of Los Medanos. He makes the lectures easy to follow and the test are exactly like his lecture notes. I did not even study and still got a B average on the test. He is a great professor.
maybe this class is a little tooooooooooo easy. all you have to do is sit there, take notes in between nap time, take the test (exact same as the notes you took) and pass with an A+++++++++.
Ya, this class was a piece of cake! Unlike Boisvert, the AT tests mean absolutely nothing, so its great! Just study the worksheets & you will do fine on the test.
Easiest class so far at LMC for me. Tests are straight from notes, I got 3 D's so far on the tests and I still have a 92% average in the class. Offers a lot of extra credit to boost your grade. I'm going to miss this class because of how easy it was. Scotts a kool teacher too so it makes class fun.
This class is super easy. It's almost hard to learn because it is so easy..if that makes sense?..He's a good,helpful, and patient teacher.
Im currently taking his class for summer session. And this class is cool - despite the morning time. He knows what he's talking about and you doo learn something if u pay attention. But really easy...he kept giving us points when we didnt do ANYTHING. Very sweet, nice, and dweeby which makes him much cooler!
easiest class ever, plus the planetarium is cool.
He teaches as if he's teaching 3rd graders! Good and bad thing..
No Comments
EASIEST CLASS EVER!!!
It does feel like he's teaching to a class of 3rd graders...which is cool for an easy grade. I'm guessing he counts on attendance because I scored an A on all my test [except 1, got a C] and yet managed a B? I have no idea, but I did miss some classes. Tha
Cabral is ridiculously easy. Take him for astronomy
If you want an easy slide by then sign up for Cabral's class.
He is an easy teacher, yes, but it won't help most people in the long run. I appreciate him giving us extentions on assignments, but the people that are taking advantage of that are never going to survive college! Don't get me wrong, though. I really enjoy this class.
He explains everything like your in kindergarden which is awesome because it's a lot of information. He is a really good teacher, plus he gives lots of extra credit!
easiest teacher at LMC. As long as you go to class and take the tests, easy A.
unbelieveably easy teacher
VERY easy, do the little work he gives you and study for the midterm and you'll pass for sure!
If you're taking Astronomy at LMC, take it with Cabral! He makes his lectures interesting, VERY easy to understand, and as long as you do all the homework, AT's, EXTRA credit, and take every midterm + the final (even if you don't do good on them) you'll PASS the class. This course is FAIL PROOF with Cabral!
wow, im kinda retarded and I got 120%
He is an easy teacher and friendly. I didn't learn that much that I didn't already know about astronomy. I would have liked more of a challenge and more material/information about astronomy. Go ahead and take this class with load of heavy classes, you'll be fine.
Had him over summer. Kinda bummed I didn't end up with an A because class was majorly easy. (I skipped 2 classes = missed some test = to my B for the semester). He's a sweet man & will let you make up for almost everything.
such a great teacher, you could litteral sleep in his class and still pass. this is such a fun and eassy class.
This guy is amazing it unbelievable. Nicest guy in the world. I missed 3 weeks straight and still pulled off an A.
He's one of the nicest professors you will ever have. Very helpful if you need it. His midterms aren't too hard, and you have plenty of time to finish them, too. I recommend this class if you're planning on just taking it for credits/meeting transfer requirements.
All you have to do is show up and do classwork and your 3 H.W asignments and you can pass the class. I felt like I was back in grade school by the way he teaches. It's a very easy class
He is really easy, just copy notes form overhead projector, lets people do reatakes on tests, really nice and helpful
Cabral is probably my favorite teacher so far. do the work and you're in for an easy easy A
Easiest class this semester. Very easy on the Brt. campus, because no I.T.'s. Easy extra credit if you need it.
the best teacher in the world!
Very Good teacher. Explains Good. Makes Notes simple and understandable.
Super easy class at the BRT location. Must attend to get everyday points. Easy extra credit!! He is pretty laid back and understanding. If your looking for an easy going teacher and a super easy class, this is definitely the one to take!
Very kind man. Class was interesting. He gives lots of extra credit.
Mr. Cabral is an incredibly intelligent man. He's a bit quiet, and sometimes even reluctant to talk over some of the rude students; But man can he teach. Astronomy has never been more interesting. Keep on rocking, Mr. Cabral.
Cabral is one of the easiest professors that I have had so far. He's clear on what he wants done. No homework really except for the Blackboard stuff which is easy. And you just study the notes for his tests. He teaches like sesame street haha.
Scott Cabral is a nice, laid back professor who is very amiable. He makes his classes accessable to everyone, and grades fairly with plenty of opportunity for extra credit. He made astronomy interesting to me, and his class was stress-free. Take his class if you can.
Great Instructor. Very helpful and teaching method though a bit elementry is great.
Very easy. He teaches like an elementary school teacher. Repeats everything and all of his exams are the same. Look over the notes once and you will all the exams. Totally recommend!!!
I love Mr. Cabral! He is very nice and very understanding. Easy class and fun learning.
Mr Cabral is a fantastic professor. He gives you every opportunity to succeed. Makes the class interesting, and you'll look foward to going to class. Enjoy!
Teachers like you are in elemtary school agree with the others. Very easy to understand concepts as long as you look over the notes the night before the tests you'll do fine.
LIKE EVERY BODY SAID HE DOES TEACH LIKE YOUR IN ELEMENTARY, BUT ITS BECAUSE OF THIS WHY YOU LEARN SO MUCH, AND WHY IT SEEMS EASY. HE REPEATS WHAT HE SAYS SO YOU CANT FORGET IT IF YOU TRIED..IF YOU GET ANYTHING LOWER THAN A B YOUR EITHER REALLY REALLLY LAZY OR AN COMPLETE IDIOT AND SHOULD NOT BE ANYWHERE NEAR A COLLEGE.
Prof Cabral teaches for success! He cares about his students and gives you everything you need to earn an A! I took this course in 2008 & the text & assignments were so AMAZING!!!!
Love Love Love this class! Mr.Cabral is a great teacher! You can get an easy A and he gives out practice exams that are very helpful for when you take mid terms! You must attend class to get 20pnt class part. point! I def. reccomend this teacher!
really awesome teacher, but I have a feeling with each passing year he tightens up the course. It's easy to get a B if you attend(turn in all the work), and take all the tests, but an A you do have to really work for. He grades everything very closely. Scantron midterms can be a little tricky. Overall, great teacher that really cares!
Great teacher. Every day you go to class you have chance to get 20 points. If you miss classes you can write a 40 line makeup page on a topic and gets all of your points. You can do this 5 times. There is also a lot of extra credit opportunities.Practice tests are almost identical to test given in class. easy!
Fun, interesting class you learn a lot due to the repetitive phrases that seem to get lodged into your head. and that's why he does it. you can pass the class as long as you do you work and pass your tests..extra credit is always welcome with him... he is a great teacher overall highly recommended.
Good ass teacher! Hella funny!
HE IS AWESOME! I HIGHLY RECOMEND HIM HE HAS A GREAT WAY OF TEACHING AND I LEARNED A LOTTTTT. HE IS ALSO SUPER EASY, HE GIVES PRACTICE TESTS EVEN FOR THE FINAL SO YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU NEED TO STUDY. ITS ASTRO MADE EASY =) LOOOVE HIM!
This teacher was extremely clear and helpful. In his discussions, he only went over subjects that would be on the test and always stayed on topic. Rarely ever used textbook, don't bother buying for beginning astro, just look on with a friend. Make sure to attend class due to all the extra credit!
This class is ridiculously easy. Just show up and you'll pass. He pretty much gives you the answers to everything. Class can be a but boring at times though.
GREAT professor! Mr Cabral is a sweet man. Yes the class is easy but it's because HE makes the info simple to learn. I hate that people take advantage of how nice he is (please put those people in their place). LOVE Mr Cabral. Highly recommend.
Very nice eldery man that cares about his students success, please treat this man with respect because he gives all of his students respect. Not a very hard class. Only one tip i have that is sit in front of the class next to the tv cause he goes through videos really fast alot dont get the right answers cause it goes really fast
So easy its hard. His lab work was so easy, however it was hard because there was so much of it and I would lose interest in the subject. Very helpful teacher. Make sure you attend his labs because if you miss more than one your grade will drop. Tests but he gives you a study guide very similar to the test so study and you will pass
Cool guy and easy class. I would avoid late in the day and three hour classes, the planetarium is awesome but easy to fall asleep in. Book is required for enrollment but dont use it too much afterwards.
Wonderful teacher. He does get a bit boring but you'll bare with it. Text book dont bother to buy it. Attend class everyday to get points otherwise dont bother just study the lecture he post on BB and still pass the exams.
Professor Cabral is one of my favorite professors thus far. Helpful, professional, thorough,and engaging. I wish he taought other classes that I needed. I am grateful I was able to sign up for his class. Be respectful and do your work, no problem.
Solid teacher, class is easy, so do apply yourself. He's even funny at times, cool, chill guy. Reccomend.
I loved this class! I wish all professors were as thorough and professional. Cabrals provides you with lots of study materials and practice exams on BB and seems genuinely interested in your success.
"Introduction" to Astronomy is an understatement, this class is beyond easy and if you've ever watched a documentary on astronomy, there won't be much to learn here. That said, Scott is really enthusiastic about the subject and is very helpful and does a lot to keep the material interesting. Nice guy, simple class.
Mr. Cabral is the BOMB!!! he is a heca nice teacher and the class is sssooo easy!!! but he is a really sweat man and he makes everything very easy to understand in the class. he doesnt give too much hw. just observing assignments and online hw. and if you miss a day you can do a makeup hw. just one project throughout the semester. SUPER EASY!!!
Super easy teacher, very clear and explains things to you as if you were four years old. Te class is also interesting and you get to use the planetarium. Just have to do 4 observing assignments which are easy, and online homework where you read an article and answer 4 questions. You have to do an oral report which is easy. If you can't get on the wait list don't worry, just show up and try to late add, he late adds everyone who shows up with a book. SUPER easy.
One of the easiest classes you can take at LMC. He is very clear(he explains things to us like we are children), helpful, and an all-around nice guy.
Cabral, actually DR. Cabral is the BEST! Hundreds of students respect and love him. He is so kind and will make you want to a nicer person because he is so nice! I learned SOOOO much about astronomy. Very easy to understand! Great class! LMC is lucky to have him.
One of my best classes at LMC.
This guy is goofy and nice. Easiest class you'll ever take. Ever
Scott is a great guy. He teaches his class like his students are in kindergarten though. So don't take this class expecting it to change your life. You do learn a lot, as the class is pretty slow paced. If you go to class everyday, do all the work, and study just a tiny bit, you'll get an A in the class.
This instructor is fantastic! He is extremely clear with the subject matter. He lectures the exact material on quizzes, then posts it on blackboard too and encourages you to study blackboard and your quizzes, prior to the final. If you show up to every class and study blackboard, no need for the book, otherwise reading the book can ensure an A.
This professor is stellar, he explains the subject matter in a way that everyone can understand. It's difficult to get a low grade if you show up and ask for help if you need it, because he's patient and will explain the subject matter until you get it and if you're lucky, will show you one of his wizard hats too!
Did not learn much but did like the assignments he gave out. Very easy class.
This teacher will go down in the books as one of the best at LMC. Teacher cares about his students , you just have to pay attention in class don't need to study. Hes a fan of Carl Sagan and you will see alot of videos on him.
Easiest class I've ever taken. He gives out extra credit basically everyday. He is a great teacher though, very clear and passionate. Easy easy class.
Great professor. Very simple class. Offers tons of extra credit. Did not use the book more than 5 times. Not strict on assignment due dates. Overall a very easy and simple class. Four unit tests and the final is accumulative. He post practice questions on BB to study.
Very laid back teacher. Notes and lecture were easy to follow and he would always stop and explain further whenever a student had a question. Made the material very easy to understand. Very awesome teacher! (:
This class was very easy. Sweet guy, Highly recomend his class. He is a bit strange though..
This class was very easy. Sweet guy, Highly recomend his class.
Cabral is a little strange but he is a genuinely great person. His class is easy and he is very sweet. I recommend taking this.
He's great. Most entertaining professor ever.
This class will have to be one of the most amazing classes Ive ever had! Hes such a sweetheart and very patient with all of his students! Easy and fun class. Wish I could take him over and over again.
He is one of the easiest professors at LMC. Ill be honest, hes a little weird but this guy, is an amazing professor. This class is an easy A. its hard not to pass.
Awesome teacher! As long as you attend class and take notes; you will do great on the exams.
Easiest class! Dont buy the book, waste of money. Only used it a few times. Gives you exam examples and most are word for word. He explans things really well. You cant fail this class.
Hands down the nicest and the kindest teacher in LMC. He is also very knowledgeable and very passionate about Astronomy but he also has the ability to properly teach somebody who is a beginner with his subjects. Because of his teaching style his classes are considered to be the easiest of all. Justshowup pay attention and do your HW and uwillpass
EASY PEASY EASY ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS FOLLOW THE SYLLABUS AND DO THE WORK LISTED AND YOU WILL PASS EVERYTHING TO STUDY IS ON D2l and it's Super easy! YOU ALSO GET EXTRA EXTRA EXTRA CREDIT IF YOU FAIL THIS CLASS YOU MUST NOT HAVE SHOWED UP AT ALL! GREAT TEACHER AND VERY PASSIONATE ABOUT ASTRONOMY AND HE KNOWS HIS STUFF VERY NICE TEACHER AND HELPFUL
he's an amazing teacher !
I can't begin to explain how easy this class is. If you don't pass this class, there is no hope for you. There are four exams, and a final; all of the material for the exams are based on his PowerPoint. Prof. Cabral gives so much extra credit it's ridiculous. At one point, he gave the whole class 50 extra x-cred. points bc he was behind in grading
Really nice teach. Might be to nice so times, but if you do the work and take the test you can get an A. He is a fun teach that will walk you though the lecture step by step.
This teacher is very nice and try's to make sure his students understand what he is teaching. Very patient. Answers all questions and I love astronomy. It's fun. If you want a good teacher who will help you take Mr Cabral
Easy class. As long as you show up and do the few in class and homework assignments you'll pass. But tests are tough so be sure to pay a little attention.
Mr. Cabral is one of the nicest and most caring teacher i have ever had and he cares about his students. He gives study guides for his tests and is very helpful. He always gives extra credit and makes astronomy fun to learn. he is the best!
Mr Cabral is the nicest teacher I've ever had. He gives extra credit which is always nice! Astronomy is interesting and if ypu go to class and study you will pass with a good grade
Great teacher Gives study guides and feedback Very positive and great person
MY FAVORITE TEACHER EVER. He's great! Easy A class
Mr Cabral is truly the nicest teacher at lmc He is kind and caring and gives extra credit to make sure his students can get a good grade. I loved astronomy so fun
This is a very easy class. Scott makes everything crystal clear and he gives extra credit. The study guides are basically the tests. If you have any questions he is there to answer them. Take this class!
Very good teacher - if you don't pass his class, something's wrong with you. Very hard to get into his classes!
Cabral is an amazing person very kind hearted. He is very passionate about the planets and stars I no nothing about are planet before taking his class easy grader and he is fare if you need this class I recommend him gives out tons off extra credit!!!!
Very understanding and super helpful! He really wants to see people get the subject and pass. If you ask him questions with genuine want to understand the material he will ever answer questions during quizzes and such. Most of the stuff you'll need to pass the tests will be in the notes.
Mr Cabral is the nicest teacher at Los Medanos college. He cares about his students and gives extra credit to help everyone raise their grade.
To ensure an A in the class, show up to the lectures for the notes and the points given at the end of class. Complete the assignments the day they are assigned, they are very easy, so don't procrastinate them. STUDY OFF THE PRACTICE TESTS. The man makes it easy for anyone to get an A in his class, so don't be that person who doesn't.
This was an interesting and informative class I wish he taught a continuing course. Cabral bends over backward to help students learn and get good grades. Anyone can get an A in his class with the minimal amount of effort. And Astronomy is awesome!
Sweetest helpful teacher ever!! He makes learning fun!! Always there to help an answer any questions...
Mr. Cabral takes extra time to help you out with homework and tests if needed. If you do all the class work and the assigned homework you are surely to come out with a A. I really enjoyed his class and would take it again if I could.
Easy A. Very helpful. Gives plenty of extra credit and allows you to make up missed class work. Lectures are clear and concise. Very nice guy and very easy grader.
Cabral is super easy. Too easy. If you're looking for an easy A, this is it. Don't expect to learn too much about astronomy. He gives a lot of busy work. Its easy, but like it should be taught to elementary schoolers, not college students.
Professor Cabral was one of the nicest professors I have ever had. If you come to class and pay attention, you should pass. A lot of extra credit, and make up assignments are offered. You need to take your notes during his lecture because everything on the test he talks about in his lecture.
Easiest A I've ever received. He gives you a lot of chances to make up work and gives lots of extra credit. However, didn't learn as much as I wanted. If you want to knock out an easy science class, I highly recommend this one. But if you're interested in the topic, look for another professor.
Professor Cabral is the nicest man ever! Super easy class, 5 tests in all including final and only 4 homework assignments. Easy A.
Mr. Cabral is literally the nicest teacher I've met. He's very laid back and his lectures are very easy to follow. He is pretty slow but you'll get through it. It's better than being too fast on the lectures. You learn a lot and it's really hard to not get an A. He makes it very easy.
Show up and you'll pass
Prof. Cabral was great! He really wants you to pass, and gives you every oppritunity to do so. Honestly, the only way to get anything less than an A in his class is to do absolutely nothing.
just cares about you and everyone else. posts a practice test online for every test and they are exactly the same as the real test. highly recommend doing your presentation right away, so you can skip last few weeks of the semester and not worry about anything.
Very nice instructor. I actually learned a lot from Mr. Cabral. Be sure to go to class to get the participation question points. Honestly, this is the nicest teacher I've ever had. Great guy!
This class is a breeze as long as you show up. There are after-class questions that are his way of taking attendance. He offers lots of extra credit and there is no late penalty for assignments. However, don't procrastinate. Tests/homework questions were easy and the material is easy to understand. One 5min presentation on a topic you choice - easy
Easy A. The only con is that he was very repetitive. We were able to turn in late work for full credit until the last week. Gives practice tests that are very similar to the one in class, only downside is that it is easy to mixup questions because they will be the same but opposite.
Easiest class in the whole college. Much easier than highschool even. It's almost like hes teaching for a kindergarten class. If only he was my math teacher
Overall an amazing teacher. He is very caring towards his students and tells them to postpone a test if they feel they are not ready for it. I loved his lectures and I came into this class not knowing a lot on Astronomy and I learned so much. Its not too much writing and the observing assignments are so much fun. Definitely take the class for sure!
he is so cool!!! he is just so sweet and very lenient there was little to no work
if you can take his class take it. easy class. goes over everything that gets a grade so its easy to get an A. if you don't feel ready for a test just take it some other time. doesnt mind helping you if you need it and is very understanding. made me realize how much i love astronomy. lots of extra credit that can bring your grade up significantly
Cabral is such an easy going teacher! He will always accommodate to the needs of his students. His class is extremely easy. But BEWARE, his class is so easy that it becomes easy to take advantage of that easiness and get a low grade. He's very flexible with turn in dates. Just be responsible for yourself and you'll pass.
Good teacher and simple
Professor Cabral is great! He explains things in a way to make sure everyone understands what he is saying. He gives opportunities to make up for missing assignments, and he accepts late work.
Easiest class at LMC, just dont take advantage of it or youll fall behind. Cabral is very nice, helpful, and lenient - really wants you to succeed. Attendance not super mandatory as lecture notes & practice tests are always on Canvas, but missing daily in-class questions hurts your grade after a while. Can postpone tests if not ready.
Mr. Cabral is an amazing teacher. Make sure you show up to class daily/weekly because of the in-class participation. there are 4 articles, and 4 observing assignments. be ready to have fun!
He is an awesome teacher. He is clear about what he teaches and is also very passionate about spreading his love for Astronomy. Easily my favorite class this semester. Show up, listen to the lecture, read a couple of paragraphs out of the free book, do a handful of assignments, review the practice test and ace the tests. Easy A.
He has set and clear directions on what is expected in every assignment. He gives out easy quizzes at end of every class. Offers extra credit for days missed. He is encouraging and fun class.
Scott is an amazing professor in more ways than one: understanding, not a harsh grader, replies to emails fast, available outside of class frequently, gives straightforward assignments, & has many other aspects that make him an amazing professor to have. He makes astronomy fun & easy to understand! Youd have to try to fail on purpose for an F!
Great teacher. Not a lot of homework, tests are easy just look at the practice tests and they're practically the same. Very caring and will work with you if you go talk to him. Accepts late work with small penalty.
The best professor at LMC. He is a very caring and thorough professor. On the first day of class he stands outside to greet everyone individually. He really knows the subject matter and makes his class fun.
Professor Cabral is a great professor who loves what he does! His class is very, very easy. He puts the practice exams online, which are nearly identical to the tests, so they are really important to study. This class is an easy A, but it is interesting and Professor Cabral is great!
Cabral is a great teacher and he really made learning about astronomy fun. His class is also extremely easy so take it to get your physical science out of the way. He is a LEGEND at LMC. No excuse to not pass this class with a high A.
Great class, there is a quiz after each lecture which counts for a lot of your grade and very few homework assignments. Professor Cabral makes the class easy and gives plenty of time to complete his assignments.
One of my favorite professors here at LMC! If you ever get the chance to take his classes, please do. Great lectures, the homework is easy if you do not procrastinate. There is one presentation but its so much fun because its on a topic youre truly interested in. It goes by in a jiffy!
Professor Cabral wants you to succeed. He brought a large telescope to school one evening, and I saw the moon! His lectures are easy to understand and inspirational. He has a passion for astronomy. Best teacher award.
Very easy class, most day you have the opportunity to leave early. Attendance is somewhat mandatory because there is in class points but theres easy opportunities to make up those points.
Cabral is amazing!! I thought his lectures were super interesting and fun. Cabral is such a nice guy and does everything he can to make sure everyone passes his class. The material on the powerpoints he shows are exactly whats on the tests. If I got the opportunity to take another class taught by him I would!
If you are looking to get an easy A, SIGN UP! He is such an easy grade and overall great guy. He does have tests with 100 questions but the study guides he gives his students is almost identical to the test. Only downside is that he is old school and doesnt use canvas.
EASY A! Prof Cabral is such a good professor! He is very organized and has fun lectures. Honestly just show up to class and you will pass. He offers a lot of extra credit, so your chance on failing is low. Hes a very caring person taking his class wont disappoint you.
Great professor, study guides are provided and tests are straight forward. Attendance required to get participation credit for the day. Offers lots of extra credit. Only way to fail is if you do it on purpose honestly
Cabral was probably THE sweetest teacher I have ever had. He is very quiet but loves what he teaches and you can tell in his lectures. He isn't the type to make you come to class but he notices who comes and participates. If you come and participate and take the tests, which he posts an online study guide!!! then you will pass without a doubt.
It was online for me, so as long as you attend the zoom meetings and do the in class quizzes you'll be good. There's not much outside homework. There's unit exams also but he explains things very well. I really enjoyed this class and I learned a lot.
amazing professor. need a gpa booster ? take this class. easy A. Gives you answers to every assignment- including tests. study guide is exactly what the test looks like word for word. you have to try real hard to not get an A in his class
Very patient. He describes everything clearly, makes it intelligible. Not so much homework, more of in class work. Willing to help whenever. I had his class virtually, but he seems to be the nicest teacher. It's a simple class, I'd for sure recommend his professor and his class. Fascinating topics with simple multip. Choice questions.
I really loved ASTRO-010 with Cabral online. The lectures are so easy to understand. A lot of it is "simplified" with metaphors, which I really loved because it helps you remember. As long as you go to class (online zoom), and take notes, you will absolutely pass. Homework is done during class. 10/10 would take again.
Professor Cabral was amazing! His lectures were always really great to go to. The exams were very easy and the study guides were so helpful! I would definitely recommend taking this class
I just clarified that his class was amazing but kind of thought for me cuz there so many things to memorized but I love his class. So much to learn and do. Professor Cabral is very patient, clear and helpful out of class. I really appreciate him. Professors like him are an inspiration to keep going! Thank you professor!
amazing teacher im taking his class online and its super easy the exams are easy as well, highly recommend his class his lectures were super interesting
When taking Astro-10 online, it was by far the easiest class I have ever taken in my life, without being completely boring either. All HW is done during class after the lecture and it's very short and very easy. It can sometimes feel a little cheesy when he tries to explain a complex topic, like sizes, by comparing trees in a forest to a person.
The semester I took this class I had a full course (15 credits was a big mistake, I don't know how people do it) and this class was great because it caused me no stress at all. Even the final was so straightforward and easy. The teacher is so nice and will help you out. The best part? He prefers cameras off for his Zoom lectures.
He's very helpful with assignments and exams! His work is just a few reading assignments and in-class quizzes (which are fairly easy and he will help you if you ask for it). You pass the class if you do all your assignments, and he's very flexible with due dates and your availability with exams.
The easiest class Ive ever taken. He is super helpful and you can turn in late work. Grading is pretty straightforward and quizzes are easy all you have to do is just watch the lecture and read a tiny bit of online textbook to do specific quizzes.
Prof Cabral is an amazing teacher. Hes straight forward and his lectures are easy to understand. Would recommend!
The nicest teacher Ive ever had in my life. Hes so nice and understanding and is really lenient about due dates if you cant turn something in on time. I would literally take his class again in a heartbeat, and he wish he taught more courses. 100% take his class if you can.
Professor Cabral is hands down the best professor I've had during college. He explains concepts in great detail and provides unique examples to help students fully grasp the information. He is a true advocate for the students and assists ones that may be struggling or falling behind. I wish that I could have taken this course in person! 10/10!
Scott cabral is a great person and professor. His lectures are long but you get a break in the middle and a lot of the times end early. His class is very simple and easy to follow in the best of ways. If you have even the chance to take his class do it! you wont regret it. I had two people actually tell me to take his class.
Very easy class and hes a really cool, understanding professor
This instructor is very organized with his lectures, he is very clear and to some may repeat, but to others he is reiterating the information in to be clear to all. He knows the subject and we are tested on what is lectured.
This was the best class I have taken so far at LMC. He cares about you passing and his lectures are incredible and teaches you exactly what will be on quizzes. I looked forward to attending every class!
He's a really good teacher, I wish he taught all my classes. He's very specific and the material is easy to understand. He also has practice exams which are really helpful. You can do the classwork and homework pretty much class while asking him any questions. His material is very simple and he makes you want to be an astronomer.
This class was incredibly easy, and Cabral did not really have due dates. You could turn any assignment in late and just email him and he would grade it that day. His lectures can be a bit boring, but they are very easy to follow and understand. There is a textbook but it is free and online, and we only used it a few times just for small paragraphs
Incredible professor! Lectures a lot on astronomy topics and teaches us about material we didn't know! All assignments were done on Canvas. Everything was due on a certain date. The thing I liked most about this class was looking up at the ceiling, which we observed stars, planets, and moon from ground view while the lights were turned off.
teacher is kinda mid. fails to connect with students and add life to his lectures/student engagements. kinda awkward. but knowledgeable about the subject and is willing to help and explains slowly, thoroughly and repeatedly. kinda felt like an elementary level class with how simplified it was. interesting material. cool class, even cooler classroom
I absolutely loved his class. Professor Cabral was a great instructor and always helped when needed. His lectures are straight forward along with due dates. He was awesome!
Cabral is the homie no cap. He is a super funny guy, his humor is sprinkled like salt in a lasagna. Also, he is super chill.
I see u looking at reviews on professors lmao. Lectures are easy to understand, he is not tough on late work and you can take test/quizzes outside of class. People usually do the work out of class. If you're dumb, I'm talking SpongeBob dumb u will pass. I enjoyed the planetarium and stars but, don't fall asleep.
EASIEST AND MOST INTERESTING SCIENCE CLASS I'VE EVER TAKEN IN LIFE. Scott is kind, and the way he explains concepts using different analogies really helps me understand things. The amount of assignments is reasonable and they're easy. The 5 exams are open notes and practice tests that are 99% similar. He'll answer any questions even in the exam.
Scott is wonderful. He reminds me of a quirky little turtle, and he is so knowledgeable! His class is SUPER easy and you still do learn a lot! If you can go to his class, go even though you don't need to. He appreciates attendance and using the planetarium is a great experience. I most definitely recommend his class and him as a teacher overall :)
Very easy, will give you the answers if you don't get it! The lectures aren't mandatory since his notes/slides are all online but for me it was better to be in-person since I would forget the after class quizzes.
Professor Cabral had no due dates for his assignments or exams you just had to turn it in before grades were due. He also was very easy to get a hold of and gave a lot of chance of extra credit. Along with this his classes were not mandatory to attend but I did because they were actually interesting. All the exams were open book and notes.
professor scott is insanely caring and will go above and beyond to make sure you succeed in his class and earn an a. he offers tons of extra credit and doesn't enforce any due dates, but he expects assignments due two weeks before the semester is over. this course is very friendly if you're working while going to school!
I loved his class !! He truly cares about his students and wants the best for you.
Scott was an amazing professor. You can really tell how much he cares about his students. I took his class and I loved it! He made everything so simple. He also goes over things multiple times just to make sure all of the students get it! and he offers so much extra credit! Also is very flexible with late work.
Easiest class ever. So much opportunity for extra credit, extremely easy quizzes, homework, and tests, and very simple and clear lectures. He provides study guides for all tests and the final and pretty much gives the answers away. Take this class for credit, or to boost your GPA. I ended with a 109% and it was an accelerated class.
Scott is a great professor! He gives an insane amount of extra credit and there are no late penalties for anything. The exams are take home and open note. Scott does a great job of explaining things and will reply to emails very quickly.
Professor Cabral is so sweet! I really enjoyed taking this class. He is the sweetest person and very caring! His lectures are very interesting and you can tell he loves what he does! 100% recommend
He's great. He has no late work; the work is online; he gives you until the second to last week to finish work.
He's so amazing! He cares so much for his students and doesn't give much homework. He gives you the entire semester to do your homework and the tests are all open book / open notes. He helps you when you need anything and is very approachable. His grading is easy and so is the homework. He also likes to play Kahoot with the class, which is cute.
Professor Cabral is amazing. He gave out extra credits.The extra credits helped me get over 1,000 points in his class. It was enough for him to tell me I did not need to do the final exam. He gives out four tests, but he drops one of them. His students can do quizzes with each other which is nice. If you are scared to take Astronomy10, don't be.
Professor Cabral is amazing! He's super caring and makes the class incredibly easy. With no textbook, open-note exams, and tons of extra credit, this is a great class to boost your GPA. I also found unstuck ai really helpful for studying.
The easiest class I've ever taken. He is very caring and allows late submissions.
