Very interesting in lecture, funny too, though be warned his tests are not a walk in the park. If you pay attention during class and truly take at LEAST 3 or 4 hours to study before the test you should be fine.

Read the headings & listen to the breakdown of the lecture to know what you're being tested on. If you're looking for it, he'll push you outside of your comfort zone and take away your safety blanket. He has the ability to make you a great thinker, but you'll work for it. Remember: great teachers are never easy and great students are never lazy

Okaaay Where to begin with Trig Johnson...he is everything a professor should be and the closest thing to a modern philosopher I've encountered. If you are a philiosophy or psychology major TAKE HIM! Tests are not easy but I've never learned so much in a class. If you want a class that will show you what college should really be about, take his.

Love the teacher however his grading even makes Aristotle shake his head. Aimed for an A all year, got a depressing B.

An interesting, thought provoking class taught by a witty, slightly insane professor.

Was so excited to take this class but it was terrible. Went to class most of the time, took extensive notes, and the best I got on an exam was an 80. He kind of rambles sometimes and is difficult to understand and comes off as being rude. Wish I would've withdrawn.

Okay, if you believe the purpose of education is to actually educate individuals then your gonna want to take this class. Stop BSing yourself, pull up your panies, and FOCUS. That's what his classes are all about. If you focus, you'll understand what is really being said. You don't have to be a genius to pass you just have to be willing to learn

This was the worst class ever! If you're a science/analytical thinker, do not take this class. The professor goes off on tangents and you have to infer what the he's talking about a majority of the time. The book was hardly used, and when it was, we were not informed to read the book b/c questions might appear on the test. End paper is extra credit

Very good class. He's a dynamic lecturer! He's very helpful and helps with a bonus paper and quizzes and after class. You need to go to class to stay informed, because the lectures are usually intense and take good notes.

Toward the end of the year we had a paper due worth 20% of our grade. I didn't understand what he was asking for so I emailed him... 3 times. He responded 2 weeks later after it was due, and I failed the paper. He was completely unhelpful the entire year.

It sounds crazy, but I he has *supernatural* power. Serious, you will feel it on you sometimes in lectures. I love his personality. Mesmerizing. I hate his tests! :(

Interesting class, great lecturer. Tests can be tricky so make sure you study everything. To get an A, do the optional paper and final exam. The exam is just all the questions verbatim from the previous tests, so make sure you check to see what you got correct. Doable A.

I don't understand how he can get so many good ratings. I had him my first semester of freshman year and his lectures were boring, tests extremely hard, and he was very rude. I am a straight A student and his class was the first and only D I ever received. I even did the extra credit...

The class is very good. The tests are a little hard but they usually have a curve. The professor is incredible. He makes the class. Take him!
