Don't take this thinking it will be a common sense class. The tests are much harder than the material seems. Ketring is a cool guy with a great sense of humor so he keeps the class interesting. However, most of what he focuses on in class is not the majority of the test. He also tests a lot on the book---even though he never talks about it.

I LOVE DR. KETRING! His tests are hard, but the grade was worth it because he has a big personality. I didn't mind getting up for an 8am because he was so interesting. There is a quiz everyday so read to do good on them, but reading still didn't help me, but that might just be me....

He's so funny and makes class enjoyable. He gives the max amount of extra credit allowed by Auburn and its super easy. His tests are like high school tests basically--no fill in the blank, all multiple choice and T/F. He answers emails almost immediately. Theres quizzes at the end of every chapter so make sure to read to get those easy points

Dr. Ketring is great. He's very nice in office hours, and does truly want you to do well in his class. I didn't believe this until November when deciding if I should drop the class or not. Print off notes & only worry about oral notes while in class. BUY THE BOOK if you want to pass. Get to the last 2 tests and you can pass! the 1st 2 are the worst

Dr. Ketring is one of the best professors that I've had at Auburn. He makes his lectures interesting and funny. The first two tests were a little difficult, but thoroughly reading the textbook would have made them easier. Just make sure you do the homework and study for the tests and you'll easily end with an A. He wants his students to do well!

Best teacher I've ever had. He wants you to be interested and learn so pay attention and be prepared to answer random questions he asks you. Print out the notes and write down everything he says including his personal stories because they will be on the test. Read the textbook for quizzes and highlight as you go so you can make an outline to study.

Scott is so funny and makes this entry-level class interesting. He drops the lowest test score and gives lots of opportunities for extra credit. The textbook is required but in my opinion, it really is not necessary, if you pay attention in class you will make an A.

I liked his lectures a lot. His "tangents" are relevant because they make it easier for the class to understand what subject he is talking about; I think that all professors should make their lectures personal like Dr. Ketring did (he added his own stories & experiences to get the point across).
