| course comments : | It seemed like the material was really dumbed down in order to fit it into a semester. |

| class comments : | In Parker's class, you typically had a few in-class assignments. This was the one redeeming value of the class; it will make you will learn the material. |

| instructor rating : | 2 - Average |
| instructor comments : | I heard he writes the tests so I guess that is a plus. His teaching is average. It can be hard to follow at time. Overall, he didn't make much of an impression on me. |

| class comments : | In-class voting (supposedly) makes you go to class but they count toward your grade and all you really have to do is attend. Still the class sucked. |

| instructor comments : | Very boring...VERY boring...but he did know his material and it seems like difficult material to make interesting. |

| course comments : | Material not extremely interesting, but enjoyed it more than py205. Moderately difficult, i found it harder than py205. Lots of material though, required for all Engineering Majors. |
| class : | Fall 2004 section 009 |
| grade received : | B |
| class rating : | 2 - Average |
| class comments : | Class wasnt too bad. Webassigns out the ass though, Atleast 3-4 per week. Extra credit webassigns as well. Tests are 15 multiple choice and a couple free response. Must Buy Book for WebAss's. Labs are easy. Take advantage of them, as well as the webassigns (not so easy, but plenty submissions) Work the practice tests! They help. |

| instructor comments : | Man, this guy just can't speak up. Sit in the front 5 rows to hear! Nice guy, but doesn't show much enthusiasim. I didn't go to class much at all, and my test scores reflected it. Labs suck but are easy to help your grade. |
