Comment:
VERY DIFFICULT! This class is solely based off test, no other assignments to help your grade. You take 7 test and your final course grade is based off of 5/7. If you do bad on the test (you probably will) you may take the final and try to improve you score (which wont even help) READ YOUR BOOK because you basically teach yourself. BAD PROFFESSOR!!!

Gibson does not like stupid questions. If you have any questions about the class, you must check the syllabus first before emailing him or else be prepared to get a snotty and rude response from him in his replying email. If the answers to your questions can be found in the syllabus its best to not even ask him. DO NOT ask him for help, bc he wont.

Comment:
He was a good professor if you are more of a verbal learner. I believe that is why i struggled so hard with the course because I am more of a visual &hands-on learner. Quizzes were really hard. DO NOT study the day before being that you have 6 opened ended responses to answer but he will only put on opened ended on the quiz with multiple choice.

The whole class is based off of 7 quizzes and honestly I had to teach myself most of the material. We had an online textbook that we read and you have to attend class to get the lecture he doesnt use blackboard. Overall, for PSY 100 he made this class more difficult then it needed to be

Absolutely do not take this man's class. He relies on the online textbook and you to teach yourself. He didn't interact with the class at all for it being a Social Psych class. This class was horrible and the professor was ineffective.

The only things in the grade book are 5/7 of your quizzes (he drops your two lowest scores), your final (which is optional & if you decide to take it and it hurts your grade, he wont put it in), and extra credit. His quizzes are hard, the readings are heavy but they help on the quizzes. He offers a lot of extra credit, take advantage, it saved me.

Entirely based on lectures that have exams every three chapters. Lectures are kinda boring but he tries to make them interesting. Can get away with not doing the readings, but they really help. Alright class with an alright professor tbh

Doesn't know how to use technology so make sure you go to lecture. 10/10 pullover game. Blackboard lost cause for Gibs.

His lecture PowerPoints are no help to you while you're taking notes. He basically leaves it all up to learn the material. Grade from entire class comes from 7 quizzes and his lectures are so useless you have to read the chapters multiple times to understand everything for the quizzes. Overall way too hard of a class that can be taken as a Gen Ed

I took this class for credit towards my degree. Bryan has really hard exams, but he curves them. The class grade only has exams towards it and a final project. Its a really hard class and not a fun class either, very lecture heavy!

Lectures half the material and expects you to teach yourself the rest. test are absolutely ridiculous and barley relate to what he discusses in class. extra credit helps but best advice is to find another professor.

The way he presents material is horrible and exam questions are 100% out to get you. I should have checked reviews beforehand, because I have never done so poorly in a class for my major and had to literally pull my grade from the trenches. I worked so hard before exams and would get 65-75% every time and be so discouraged... dont take this course

Talks fast and doesn't have notes, just talking points so you have to write down what you think is important. Final Grade is made up of exams and portfolio. Wasn't vert helpful during office hours, just made me feel dumb. Exams are hard and scenario based but drops lowest grade and has a curving system. Basically the class is boring and hard.

Bryan loves his work and is super funny. Exams were hard if you didn't prepare but he gives out a lot of extra credit. I got 60-68 on all the exams but ended the class with a b- He is lecture heavy but they are fun- he gives specific examples that helps the materials stick. This class was hard, but it wasn't impossible. He will help you if needed!

Lectures are very boring and he tends to talk rather quickly. Exams are extremely difficult and he does not provide study guides. He is also very disorganized which makes turning in assignments difficult.

He is a great guy, but sucks as a professor. I DO NOT RECOMMEND HIM. I had to drop this class and retake it at a community college over the summer. Super hard, do not take it with him. Try deb poole instead!!

Do not take this class. Professor Gibson is knowledgeable in this field of study but this class is ridiculous. He talks way too fast. I started out with writing my notes and had to go to laptop because I couldn't keep up. Exams are the hardest I've ever taken. He gives you nothing to prepare for them. Extra credit is what is keeping me alive.

His tests were very hard especially for a 100 level course. His classes would either be super productive or very off topic, so it was hit or miss. Definitely dont skip class because his tests cover both book material and the things that he says in lecture that arent in the book.

Prof Gibson is a great teacher who tells you exactly what you need to do in order to pass the class. His lectures are very important, and if you miss one, you'll have a lot of catching up to do. He is, however, quite funny and clearly loves what he does, and he gives off good vibes during class. Not an easy class, but definitely worth taking.
