I took this class out of interest and to challenge myself, and I really enjoyed it. It seems like a lot at first but my advice is to set up a studying schedule where you review the lectures and don't waste time studying inefficiently. The topics covered in this class were really interesting for me, and once I set up a studying schedule the workload was really manageable. The only thing you turn in week to week is "homework" where you write 2 sentences on what was confusing and interesting this week, and the other grades are your midterms and finals which are all weighted equally. Professor Bradley is very kind and makes you instantly comfortable, even if this class can make you anxious in the beginning. Discussions aren't mandatory but I would really recommend attending. Overall I really liked this class, and I would definitely recommend Bradley as a professor!
Professor Bradley was amazing! One of the best professors I've taken, the course is hard but he made it much more manageable and understandable. I am not a MIMG major and took the course for PA prereqs, but he made his lectures clear and assigned reflection assignments each week as our hmw. Discussions were optional and were used for clarification, there were 3 tests all of the equal weight for % and were non-cumulative, he allowed one-sided notes on an 8x11 paper for every test. they offered regrades for the first two exams but not for the final. There was some extra credit associated with campuswire. Overall this class will take up ALOT of time and require maximal effort to get a good grade. He does curve the overall grade but our class did pretty well on tests (averages were C's) so he may not have curved this time.
Since Professor Bradley only seems to teach MIMG 101 in the winter, this review is more about Bradley and Ali Pour as teachers rather than what to expect on the exams since the open-note format probably won’t be used again. Both of them are fantastic profs and I enjoyed this class a lot more than I thought I would since a lot of people loathe its difficulty and amount of material. Bradley was very receptive to student questions and made himself available for plenty of office hours where he explained things he went over in lecture. You could tell he was passionate about what he was teaching especially when we got into Toxoplasma Gondi, the parasite he studies. Paria Ali Pour also did her part well even though she isn’t as familiar with this course. If Rebecca TAs for this course again, I strongly recommend being in her section. She was very good at summarizing the massive amounts of content we learned and even created some practice problems that were similar to the problem-solving type questions on exams.
I took MIMG 101 with Professor Bradley and Professor Das, both of whom were very clear lecturers and truly cared about the students' learning. The class is introductory, so the concepts themselves are not very difficult, but be aware that they do expect you to know a lot of information for the tests. Tests were not cumulative, thankfully, so each midterm (2) and the final tested only certain portions of the class. In my experience, the best way to study for this class is to attend lecture and rewatch the Bruincasts because anything from their lectures are fair game. If you have friends in the class, try explaining the concepts to one another, or self-explain to test whether you understand the concepts. I would also recommend going to your discussion sections because the TA's often provide concise reviews of the week's material as well as worksheets to supplement your learning. Overall, I thought the class was very interesting and they often include real-world applications for the material, which was nice. I would highly recommend taking this class with Professor Bradley and Professor Das-- they are super kind, helpful, and wholesome!
Dr Bradley is one of those professors who loves what he does and cares about his students. The material in this class is not very hard but there is so much material that you need to study. I definitely recommend going to the office hours because he often review everything in details which is really helpful also try to go to the discussions because TAs are wonderful and really help you understand the material.
Professor Bradley is a great person. Charismatic lecturer and clear in his words. The first couple of weeks can be a drudge to get through, but once he gets to the things that he likes, the quality of lectures get vastly better. There's a ton of info in the class, so make sure you watch the Bruincast vids before a test and review over your notes a *ton* of times.
Dr. Bradley is an angel. Students can tell when a professor loves what they do and when they actually CARE, which is why my classmates and I were always interested in course content and motivated to study hard. That being said, this class is still tough and there is a ton of material. Dr. Bradley makes sure he's super supportive, available, and kind at all times to ease some of the stress. Thank you!!!
Dr. Bradley is funny, charismatic, incredibly intelligent, and, simply put, cares. He will bring candy to every office hour, will hold extra review sessions, and will answer all questions thoughtfully. His exam questions are tricker than Dr. Gunsalus', but they're not at all impossible. If you can, take MIMG 101 with him and Gunsalus. The final is non-cumulative and Gunsalus is not as bad as a lot of Bruinwalk reviews make him out to be.
Dr. Bradley was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend taking 101 with him. I took it with him and Gunsalus. They're both good but Bradley had more engaging lectures. Go to Bradley's office hours! They're very helpful, he's funny, and he often brought us cookies/ candy.
To get an A in this class:
Go to class (though this is not mandatory),rewatch as many classes on bruincast as you can, go to office hours even when you don't think you need to, and participate on the CCLE discussion board. (If your grade was borderline and you participated on the discussion board, they said they would round you up.)
The point breakdown is:
1. Midterm 1 100 points
2. Midterm 2 100 points
3. Final 150 points (Our quarter it was not cumulative, which is was great)
Getting an A is very doable, but you need to watch lectures/ study the slides constantly.
Bradley's a cool dude. Take him, even if he's teaching with Gunsalus. I don't know why people give Gunsalus hate he's a good professor too in my opinion. Bradley makes his material sound interesting and fun. I especially enjoyed the material after the second midterm. Before that it was pretty boring not gonna lie. But Bradley is very helpful over the CCLE discussion page which is HIGHLY appreciated. He can go through material quickly but since it's podcasted you can listen to it again. Nice guy. Would take him again.
