Comment:
If the class wasn't so test-heavy, I think most people can easily get an A. Bazzett gives extremely good feedback and helps immensely outside of class, and his lectures are very straightforward on what will be tested. Can be a bit harsh when helping write the paper, but he cares a lot for his students. Can't recommend enough!

I took bio psych with him online this year. We had zoom classes a few times a week which were entertaining. However, his tests were only based on lecture material and I didn't need to buy the book. Graded on 4 tests only. The lectures were recorded so I went back and re-watched them before each test which is what helped me to do well

Comment:
I have an accommodation plan for my mental health. Every professor has worked with me & been understanding other than him. He said I should drop the class because I can't pass at this point. He also gives little to no feedback on drafts & is rather cold. He seems to be very knowledgable, but not up for all circumstances & students' needs.

Comment:
Dr. Bazzett makes it fun to learn the material and relates it to real life. He is not a boring professor and even with being online, he tried to be engaging. The only downside is that your grade is based on 4 tests only, which are somewhat difficult and require thought beyond your notes.

I loved Bazzett's behavioral res class! It was synchronous zooms that were not mandatory, but most of the class usually went. He lets you keep handing in drafts for the papers until the due date/ until you get a 25/25 which is a huge plus to taking his class. He is super nice and wants you to succeed in this class.

Would not take a course with him, while he is a nice guy he doesn't give good feedback and will say your papers are too terrible for him to even edit, yet doesn't specify what he wants in the paper or criteria that matters. Tests were fair, but graded on a straight scale so there is not any waiting which will hurt your grade. Got A's on all tests

Comment:
Maybe hes a good professor overall, but not for PSYC251 and certainly not for online courses. I submitted 5 drafts to him for one assignment, and still only got a 13/25 on it after making the exact revisions he suggested. He might as well write the paper himself if hes going to be so picky about everything. Dont take him, not for PSYC251

Comment:
One of the least understanding professors I've ever had especially during the pandemic. He is rude and disrespectful. You can tell he is very knowledgable though. You only pass his paper with multiple drafts, I sent him multiple like he asked and he proceeded to say he was too busy to grade it. Does not practice what he preaches, I would avoid.

He sucks. His grading is way too specific. The only way to do okay on his papers is to contact him first for review. The only students who get a 100 are the ones who contact him. Even when I contacted him, I still got very poor grades showing that his advice wasnt helpful. His lectures arent useful and he can be very inconsiderate with due dates.

He was good up until remote learning. Clearly doesn't know how to be organized for online classes. Super sloppy with due dates and overall nit picky with writing assignments.

Comment:
Mr. Bazzett is the worst professor I have ever had. He is rude, not understanding, and disrespectful. I took his course Spring 20 & class did go online and he is the worst out of all my professors. He doesn't answer emails quickly, mocks you when you ask questions, and sends out passive aggressive emails when people ask questions about the tests.

One of my favorite professors at Geneseo. His lectures are very interesting and engaging. Despite the class being kind of early in the morning, I never wanted to skip it. Your grade is only based on 4 tests, and they're not easy, so studying is necessary.

Best professor ever. Got me so interested that neuropsych is now my concentration. Only negative is that his class is based on 4 exams BUT he gives some random extra credit. He is super knowledgeable and cool as heck. 10/10 dude.

Bazzett is probably one of my favorite professors at Geneseo! His lectures are hilarious and help make a tough subject much easier to learn. He's always willing to help if you need it and loves answering questions. His tests can be tricky, but if you take notes on examples he gives in lecture, they're a lot easier.

Biopsychology is a hard class and it takes effort to do well. Dr. Bazzett is always prepared and has great powerpoints. His lectures are interesting and he attempts to find ways to give real life examples about the things we learn. His tests are very hard but he is always willing to help you review if you ask for the help

The class consisted of 3 exams and 1 paper (the paper had multiple graded sections). Must hand in multiple drafts on the paper to do well. The textbook was not needed if you go to class.
