I really liked Dr. Lembo as a person. He's really nice and you can tell he enjoys teaching. His tests are hard though. You can not do well just on notes alone...they're just an outline. You have to read the chapters to do well. He gives a lot of extra credit and that helped me a lot. He is a really cool laidback guy. Take him.

He is hard but an A is reachable. When you get the review go through the book and read and highlight where the answers to the review questions are. They are on the test in that order. The extra credit was watching a video in class and writing everything you see down. It was kinda fun and crazy. You didn't have to make complete sentences.He is hard.

If you have taken Dr. Lembo's class and think he is hard you need to take a really honest look at your study habits. He is a great professor who uses his real world experiences to make the class more interesting. You dont have to read the book, his reviews ARE THE TEST- if you know the review you will make an A on the test. Plain and simple.

Great professor. Gives "review items" after each chapter gone through in class, which consists of a list of topics for which will be on the exam. Go home and read/write down the information the textbook has to say about the topic and you're golden. Also, up to 45 points of extra credit awarded, and lowest test grade dropped. Easy "A."

HARDEST TEACHER ALIVE. Stayed up all night to study but failed anyway. He may give extra credit but still didnâ??t pass. My first FAILING class. I was really devastated and he will not curve anything up, even if you grade is so close to a 70. His word, â?? you earn it, you deserve it â?? TAKE HIM IF YOU ARE A TYPICAL PERSON WHO LIKES TO STUDY 24/7

Dr. Lembo is very straight forward. Literally, he gets his test questions from the book. If you come to class, read the book and take notes you'll be in great shape. He's a really nice guy, very fair. You get the grade you earned. Overall a helpful professor and nice guy.

Read your book for the test. Take notes in class and listen to the lecture intently. Do not miss test notes. DO EXTRA CREDIT. This might get you out of taking the final. He's very friendly, professional, fair,consistent. Always willing to explain anything you don't understand. He will not break the rules for any reason so don't ask. Best teacher

He's a great teacher & is easy. As long as you come to class, listen to his lectures & read the book you'll be good. His tests are literally based on what he says & the textbook so you HAVE to READ. The final is word-for-word from the previous tests. His grading is strict; no curves or bump ups if you beg BUT he gives 45 extra points. RECOMMEND!

Very interesting and funny guy. He will tell you that you should never be reading the book the night before the test, you should only be reviewing, but since some of the test questions are random facts directly from the book, this method did not work for me. Go over the review items in the book before tests, do not review only.

He is slightly abrasive and has a lot of rules.
