Comment:
He was bald and muscular because he was body builder! I miss him because he doesn't teach there anymore. His tests were difficult because you needed to actually read to maybe do well on the exam. I found his class, HIM and his videos interesting! Attendance not mandatory. Great professor because it seemed like he cared about his students.

did not like this class at all. He really does not lecture, he just turns on a video and expects us to takes notes on it.

Comment:
He is awesome really easy class to pass. All I recommend is copying all the study guide questions and answering them in his book those are exactly the midterms, he grades on a curve too so all you need is a 40 out of 50 to get an A on his tests! Oh ya make sure to do the term project. you'll love him!

Comment:
Pretty easy A in my opinion. Just do the focus topics and you'll do well on the exams. Go to class, write down the notes, and you'll probably get an average score or better on the final. (he curved pretty much everything in our class)

Comment:
Like the other comments mentioned, this teacher doesn't talk about what's in the book - he expands upon it with his experiences and stories. As long as you stick around to copy the focus topics, answer them for each chapter, you should do fine on the midterms. You should go to class though since the final is comprised of all his lectures notes.

Comment:
An ok professor. 3 midterm that cover 5-6 chap(you just need to study the focus topic) and final base off of his lecture completly. He curves the grade(for our class he did). His lecture cover some info in the book but mostly his experiences as thats what he wants to do. His lecture are ok and most of the time finish early.

Comment:
His class was pretty easy and interesting because all he really does is tell you stories about his life and relates it back to the class. He gives you a lot of chances to pass his class so everybody can pass. His mid-terms are really easy if you answer and study the focus topics he gives you in class. I would recommend this professor to anyone.

Comment:
Pellegrini does more than teach you about book knowledge...which any moron can do that. He tells stories that will impact your life. The peole who don't like him are the same people who limit their learning to only text books and tests. What he has taught me impacted my life more than any book or teacher from all of my college classes.

Comment:
An easy 'A.' He's a nice guy, but he gets off topic a lot. It's more like we're listening to a motivational speaker than a professor. He didn't teach me anything that I didn't already know. I wasted money on this class. I'd suggest taking a different prof. so you'll actually learn something.

easy. easy. easy. easy. A lot of self-learning because he likes to get off topic all the time. Showing up to class is not necessary; I never did and i ended up with a B. I recommend taking a tougher teacher to learn more.

I only went to class on the first & last days & test days & still got an A. You need to buy the workbook because it's part of your grade. Just do the required 4 research hours, read the chapter summaries or watch the textbook DVD & you're fine.

Comment:
The tests are super hard! The one time I actually studied, I still didn't do well. I showed up to class everyday but it didn't help me with the exams. He gets off topic a lot and rambles about random things. It's mandatory to buy the study guide. (Only because it's by him and he wants his sales to go up). Ridiculous and wasteful

i showed up to his class ONLY for midterms and finals, never read the book although wasted money on it. the study guide is mandatory for your term paper and i did it w/o the main text book. the reason i didnt show up for classes was cause he rants too much. he gets off topic [or doesnt begin the topic] and rants forever.

Comment:
Class is boring. Lectures does not have anything to do with midterms, only few. Final is on lectures you take in class. Tests are hard, you need to study really hard to get an A but to get a B is REALLY EASY since he grades on this crazy curve. Buy the study guide because its needed for the final project.
