Class was relatively easy and his lectures were actually interesting to attend. Can definitely tell he cares about his students!

He is a chill professor. Attendance is optional, but it helps if you go. There is an online textbook with all the material, but his slides give a condensed version, so focus on those. Homework is easy. His grading focuses on tests and a cumulative final, all of which are multiple choice.

The professor is very funny, and the lectures are manageable. Very important that you attend every lecture. The course material is not hard, but there is a lot of information to retain. However, lot's of extra credit is provided that will significantly boost your grade.

Gallimore is both knowledgeable and unbearable. He as an insane god complex and will tell you one thing just for the opposite to actually happen. Ex: "I won't refer to this topic as X on the exam" and then there will be several questions referring to said topic as X. Pretty study heavy class, exams were hard and veryyyy thorough.

Bipolar af. Will blame you for not having the syllabus memorized if you ask a question, but does seem to care about students' understanding of content. Calls out individuals in front of the entire class and is often rude to his TA. Constantly remarks on how smart he is and how his teaching model is the best. (but he does offer lots of extra credit)

the weirdest professor I think I have ever had. Going to leave it as that. DO THE EXTRA CREDIT

He is really a kind person, although some of his behavior can sometimes be kind of peculiar. He wants to teach students something. He wants his students to gain knowledge and feel cared for. I've heard many classmates say they don't like him, but I think this is because of some of the puzzling approaches. He's a very good person and teacher.

I had waitlisted for this class, missing the first week. When I came to the first lecture, I was caught up on all the work, but he still blamed me for joining late and told me it should not have been allowed. Also, I told him I was going to have to miss a lecture for my grandma's funeral, and he told me, "Good thing she didn't die during finals."

Need to know the material very well because the exams are hard. He gives 5% worth of extra credit though, which balances it out.

Gallimore is very mixed reactions, and can be snarky at times. However, he truly does care about his students and uses a flipped classroom, so you can understand the material better. He is odd, and to some its a turn off, but hes the type of guy you can talk to for a long period of time

Dr. G came off condescending and is definitely a bit strange, however he seems to really care about the students in his lecture. I will say that the lectures aren't very helpful as to the fact that he just reads off his slides. Exams weren't what they were discussed to be (not same topic weight he discussed, lots of application, etc.)

Dr. Gallimore is a great lecturer! But, one time he tracked my Canvas activity to tell me I couldn't get a one-day extension on an assignment while I was going through a serious health issue and I explained that to him. Very sad that he can't be a little more understanding to his students that work hard! Made me lose a bit of respect for him :(

Over-hated in my opinion, however is not great. Lectures extremely fast despite randomly letting us leave 10 minutes early. Every single homework assignment is the most useless and repetitive BS you will ever do. Tests were extremely straightforward. You CAN receive an A despite never opening the book. Like everyone else has said, DO EXTRA CREDIT.

Dr. Gallimore was a great professor. Tests can be hard because they are all application questions, but he gives a lot of extra credit. You don't have to go to the lecture, but sometimes he gives an extra credit point for being there.

Gallimore is an over hated professor by many people. His lectures are fairly engaging and the exams are not very difficult if you study mildly. DO EXTRA CREDIT (it's very easy). Only downside is that the homework is frequent and mildly redundant, but it can be completed easily and there is a grace period on most assignments.

I honestly liked Gally's teaching style, but it's definitely subjective. He for sure comes off as condescending/a know it all, but he knows what he's talking about. My only gripe is that the final exam is cumulative of all course work. He doesn't say what specifically so expecting us to review every concept for every single chapter is nonsense.

Dr. G is an overall great Professor. His lectures are very entertaining, however, he goes very quick so its hard to keep up. I often had to finish notes outside of class. Lectures are recorded but I would still recommend going to class because he gives out extra credit sometimes. Lots of busy work. DO THE EXTRA CREDIT.

Honestly, I found Professor Gallimore pretty condescending, but it is something that can be ignored. He reads off the slides, but you should also look at the online textbook pages. The exams are extremely easy (multiple choice), and the assignments are just busy work. Also, DO THE EXTRA CREDIT (It's very easy).

dr. gallimore paints himself as this guy who wants the best for you, but my god he's terrible at teaching. he spams the same tedious assignment structure every week and the class in total has 5 exams, pretty excessive for an "intro" level course. also the exams have hyper-specific questions, so it's difficult to make useful study notes.

bro was lowkey weird

I really enjoyed his class, I would genuinely get upset if I couldn't make it to his lecture that day. His lectures are engaging and fun, and as long as you attend class and take notes you will ace the exams. He was always friendly when you would talk to him after class and I enjoyed his way of teaching.

I think that the only reason you wouldn't pass this class is if you don't take outside notes based off the sections he assigns for reading. The exams are all multiple choice and he has super engaging lectures. He provides us with so many resources, like guided notes, every lecture slides, YouTube videos/ lecture videos.

his homework is extremely unhelpful when it comes to helping you retain the info for the chapter. and you get the same busywork to do for every chapter. tests have been basically half made up of what he says will be on them. sometimes goes on tangents in lectures. but if you go to class (even tho it's hard bc he's not helpful) you'll be fine.

The overall structure of this course is not great; dealing with Professor Gallimore, comparable to a reoccurring nightmare. This course is 3 credits but has a "flipped" learning style. Essentially, Jonathan does not actually teach during weekly lectures. Prepare to drown in work, constantly feel behind, and receive passive aggressive emails.

Dr.Gallimore is beyond the best professor ive ever had. He makes all of this classes super straight forward and the exams are easy if you study. Sometimes I didn't even read the chapter and I would just take notes that week and I did just fine. Highly recommend him.

He is so mean, do NOT accidently walk into his class, he WILL yell at you!

Dr.Gallimore made this class super unenjoyable and is super aggressive. I highly suggest not taking this class.

attendance isn't required, but essential for getting good grades. A number of exams should make up your grade, but they're are multiple versions of the same test, so study everything you can. I didn't think they were that bad, but i did extra credit to get the A. Lectures are great and Dr. Gallimore really cares for his students.

Dr. G is unpredictable. He seems friendly on recordings and video calls, but his emails are condescending, anxiety-provoking, and passive-agressive. He also has a god-complex regarding how the course is structured. He also constantly accused students of cheating! Class was easy, except for when it came to dealing with Dr. G.

He truly wants the best for his students and is so accommodating. The tests weren't the biggest grades in the gradebook, and he gives so many extra credit opportunities. Honestly one of my favorite profs so far.

DO THE EXTRA CREDIT EARLY. Exams were horrid, only had application questions, so make sure you know the material front to back. The textbook was super boring and long. His lectures were ok. For me, it wasn't worth attending lecture even though I did so 90% of the time.

I didn't love this class, but Dr. Gallimore was a decent lecturer, and he offers up to 5% extra credit, so I can't complain too much. Despite this being my only 3-credit class this semester, I spent more time studying and doing work for this class than any other, attended every lecture, and still barely scraped by with an AB.

Overall would recommend. Very passionate about psych and cares about his students success both in and out of class. Exams are extremely easy if you attend lecture, he basically tells you what will be on them. Even if you do mid on exams, with extra credit you can still easily get an A. He does read directly from the slides, but I don't mind.

while he is very passionate about teaching, the exams are extremely difficult. he will say at the beginning of the semester that people and specific studies will not be on the test, and then continue to make the exams entirely that. if you haven't taken ap psych or aren't familiar with psychology, take it with someone else.

Great professor with lots of energy and personality but lecture slides are pretty useless and almost identical to textbook. Exams are hard, need to memorize pretty much everything you learn and exams are close together, cumulative final less than a week after 4th midterm. Extra credit bumps you up a whole grade if you complete it all , ex: AB to A

The class is interesting however the tests are really hard. Even if you go to lecture, do readings, etc the questions that are asked on the test are really specific. Also, the last unit test is right before finals week. So the cumulative final is 3 days following a unit test. This dropped my grade right before the end of the semester from an A.

he's not as bad as a lot of people are saying, but i agree that he can be condescending and unhelpful when answering questions. lots of extra credit opportunities, if you take good notes and pay attention to what he says to focus on for the exam during lecture, you'll do fine. its not an easy A but if you put in a bit of time you'll do well!

His lectures are basically him reading right off the slides. He says he wants to set you up for success but makes the exams way harder than they need to be. He also gives no proper study material or actually helpful homework. I would not take this class if you aren't a good test taker. There are other classes more worth you time than this one.

Lectures are impossible to keep up with, even if you type notes. Extra credit is really easy to get and super beneficial. Exams are hard for no reason, prepare to study. He wants his students to succeed but definitely makes the intro class harder than it needs to be.

Gallimore gets a bad rep from my peers and on this page, I attended his office hours and he seems like a genuinely great guy. Classes were not difficult and had to do studying before coming to class due to his 'flipped design' which helped me understand the topics even more. Highly recommend taking Psych210 with Gallimore.

Prof. Gallimore is a super funny guy but I found his lectures pretty useless. We wasted a ton of time on his "pauses." He just reads off the slides. His exam questions were super difficult and I found his class harder than it should have been. I like that he offers extra credit and it is pretty easy to earn.

I have studied for weeks for each exam and each time I get bad grades. He asks questions in such a specific and niche way that they are almost impossible to answer correctly sometimes even if you have studied a lot. Extra credit is nice and can bring your grade up, but it's useless when grades are bad because of really hard exam questions.

Gallimore balances a fine line between earnest and condescending, and more often than not, he comes across as belittling and patronizing. His class is an easy A (thanks to the extra credit) so long as you put in the bare minimum effort of studying. Take this for credit, show up for lectures occasionally, and do the extra credit for an A.

He can be very condescending and does care a lot about how his mad grades look (sometimes a little too much), but he is a great professor. I enjoy his flipped lecture style a lot, and it makes sense why he's considered one of the best stats professors, even if he's passive aggressive. You can heavily tell he's someone who wants to be respected

I had Dr.G for three courses during my four years as a Psych student and I enjoyed his teaching style, relatability and accessibility outside of class. He assigns a lot of work outside of class to help prepare you for class but not an abnormal amount for a college class. Not an easy A, but if you work hard you will be in the A/AB range.

Full of himself. Does not want you to get a bad grade because "it affects his mad grade average." There are exams every two weeks, worth 60% of your grade. The 4th exam is two days before the cumulative final. If you need psych 210 for your major, do it somewhere else and transfer the credit. I beg you. also too much homework.

Professor Gallimore is THE worst teacher I have ever had. He is so condescending, super unhelpful, doesn't prepare you correctly for the exams, and all the lectures are beyond pointless. If you need to take Psych 202, wait until there is a better teacher or change majors because he was truly unbearable.

Gallimore is incredibly rude and condescending. He has a very specific way of doing things and is not open to feedback or constructed criticism. He also consistently yells at his students, embarrassing them in front of large classes, over small errors or misunderstandings. I strongly recommend taking stats with another professor for your sanity.

Very rude and disrespectful I took his class last year and he would be condescending when answering simple questions. During his class he just read from the slides and would provide no useful insights. This year I walked into his class by mistake, and he yelled and me. Overall, a not helpful and rude guy.

Very rude!

He is very nice and provides resources for class. Gives extra credit. However, he's not a great lecturer and the tests are multiple choice. The questions are very interesting. You can still snatch a pretty easy A, though.

Good professor - his lectures can be dry, but doing the readings and practice questions will set you up for success. unstuck AI was a lifesaver for study prep!

He is condescending and is not willing to answer questions. Not enough resources to prepare for his tests as the questions are consistently unclear and many times asks about very specific things he says in lecture. The class is unnecessarily hard but if you put in the work to study and earn all 15 points of extra credit then you should be okay.

Gallimore is condescending and refuses to answer simple questions. Preparing for tests is impossible because the only practice questions you get are lousy kahoots which have been recycled every year. Test questions are ambiguous and unclear: could argue multiple correct answers. Overall such an awful class and so much harder than it should be.

Class is hard to follow. Many midterms and tons of things to recite.

Gallimore cares about his students and does as much as he can to help you get an A, even in a hard class. Countless opportunities outside class to earn 15 extra credit points thru surveys/experiments. In lecture, goes over powerpoint and tells u what's important for exam. Posts ALL lectures, lecture slides, and kahoots on Canvas which helps A LOT.

Very fast lecturer, do not only rely on lecture to learn or take notes on material, you cannot write all of the info down in time. Reading and comprehending (free)textbook readings is essential. Super caring professor, go to lecture and complete sona studies for extra credit. Lectures are engaging, do not take this as an "easy class" as it is not.

test questions are multiple choice w/ 5 answers. all application based scenario questions. tells you "this is on exam" but is only maybe one question. questions can be tricky and confusing

better off waiting to get a different professor for psych 202. Class is poorly structured and simply attending lectures & doing assignments is not enough to prepare for exams. expects you to read each chapter of the textbook before he goes over it in class, & will often test on subjects deep in the book & not covered or mentioned during lectures.

If you take 210 with Gallimore you'll get an A if you try. I understand the material. However he can be passive aggressive or downright condescending. Very dependent on his mood, sometimes he's caring. He has a flipped classroom setting where you do the majority of the work on your own. Unit exam is also 3 days before the final which sucks.

Gallimore was great! Most lectures, he just went over the readings so there wasn't anything super engaging about going to class, but he emphasized attendance even though it wasn't mandatory. Make sure you attend class so that you don't miss out on extra credit opportunities. Overall, his class was challenging enough but pretty surface level.

Dr. Gallimore was a great professor. However, I did not enjoy his lectures, as he continuously reviewed things from the textbook. If you are willing to pay attention to the textbook and study, there will be no need to attend lectures FYI - exams deal with application, so make sure to practice applying your knowledge.

Dr. G is rude and egotistical. His classes are super easy, but the amount of work he expects you to put in is crazy. He's incredibly prone to crash outs if things don't go his way. For an intro-level professor, he really cherry picks what he teaches, leaving out important concepts. If you want an easy A, take his class. Otherwise stay away.

He stepped in for our class a while ago, but he has been amazing compared to my other professor. Although he does go a bit fast through the lectures, he has slowed down now(you just have to tell him). Always open to answer a question during a lecture, and is very knowledgeable in the field, you can tell that he loves his job.

The class itself is easy. He's okay. Not much else to say. Lots of busy work (eg. writing multiple choice q's for each chapter). Read the textbook, maybe look at some of the videos he posts for the chapters because there will probably be 1-3 random test questions asking about very specific in-class things/vids

Dr. Gallimore is one of the best professors I have had since coming here. You can tell he really cares about his students and the subject he teaches. A bit fast when lecturing but if you follow along it's fine, he also records them in case you miss anything. Very little homework which is nice and lots of opportunity for extra credit! Love him! :)

Seems very knowledgable about the concepts and ideas of psychology but lectures quite fast and hard to keep up.

Dr. Gallimore is great! He is kind and understanding. The material in the lecture is presented clearly, and Dr. Gallimore does a great job ensuring students have many chances to practice and understand the content. There are occasional in-class opportunities for extra credit, but attendance is not mandatory. Overall, a great experience.

He is an amazing professor and gives you all the tools you need to get a good grade. As long as you go to class or watch the recordings of class you should do good. It is an easy class with little homework as long as you pay attention in class and participate in his activities.

A professor that genuinely cares about his students. By far the best professor I had this semester and feel fortunate I took this with him and not others in psych department. He gives extra credit and is always open to chat with students and make sure they are doing ok. Highly recommend!

He is condescending and arrogant. Seems power hungry and unnecessarily uses punishment In the form of changing grades. Fosters of poor learning environment. My love psychology was lost after taking his class. Hopefully it will return.

Overall, the class is straightforward if you do the work and study. However, I found the professor condescending and belittling. His communication was very passive aggressive. Additionally, he would consistently point out material in class saying it was going to be on the exam, but it never was. Exams often contained irrelevant details.

Dr. G is the GOAT! He truly cares for all of his students. This course moves at a fairly quick pace, so stay on top of the readings/review. He explicitly says many times throughout the semester "This will be on the exam!". There is enough extra credit to boost your grade 5% points, so it's very easily attainable to achieve an A if you work for it.

Gallimore was a great professor! If you attend lecture and pay attention, you will have an easy time doing well in this class.

I loved the class, and Gallimore did a great job of getting the information across. But the class was CONSTANT exams. We had 5 exams that were massive 70 MC questions. The questions were really bad/misleading. We simply covered too much content every two weeks and before exams. Not to mention, the last exam and final (cumulative) were back to back!

First of all: There are many oppurtunities for extra credit 1. Attending class gives you 5 extra points (50 max) 2. He litterally will give you awesomeness points (I got 50) Whole semester is foccussed on your paper. Do Well on every assignment=easier in the long run Use feedback from TA's and implement them. (Hard to fail the class)

Ended with 108% and I am not an over achieving student. No exams and used class time for help from him and TAs. Other friends took this class with different professors and hated their lives. If you want to pass this difficult class with a high grade you need to take it with him. He also is an easy professor to make connections with.

Best professor to take for Psych 225. Outlines everything needed to be done, makes things very easy for all students. Does not have exams for this class, so participation and completing assignments is important. Only uses class time to aid in completing assignments. Best option and best professor for this class 110%.

Extremely nice and passionate about subject. Offers extra credit for attendance and gives an additional 10 points extra credit for every student. My favorite Psychology professor. Highly recommend him over all other Psych professors.

Gallimore is both fun and caring. He wants his students to do well rather than struggle, although he can be kind of snippy at times. I genuinely don't think I would have passed this class without him as a prof. The class may seem difficult but as long as you truly do the work you should do very well, plus he offers quite a bit of extra credit.

You can get an A in any of his classes if you do all of the pre-lecture work. Lectures are kind of a waste of time (but extra credit sometimes), he basically reads the slides. All of the content is available in the module anyways. He can be stubborn and frankly rude at times. Shows interest in interacting with the students but can be egotistical.

Terrible course format. You basically do all the learning outside of class, then interact with the material in class through group work. If you actually do it the way he wants, you end up having to teach the material to people in the class who don't do the prep work. If you care about the content of the course and not just the grade, don't take.

I enjoyed having Dr. Gallimore as my Psych 210 professor this year. I have never been the best at math, but he offered lots of extra credit which helped me stay on track. Also, I had two unforeseen circumstances this year that forced me to miss two exams. He was so patient and kind about it, and was very accommodating, which I really appreciated.

No exams, just weekly online quizzes, labs, and one big paper. Attendance was extra credit. Posted lectures online and class was just discussion. He can be inflexible, and responds to some Piazza posts passive aggressively. The class was disorganized, and there were constant errors in rubrics and online quizzes that students pointed out.

A great, maybe the best, option of the current professors if you need qr/statistics credits. Super thoughtful, different but effective teaching style and he definitely cares about us understanding the concepts and terms without too much distracting information, Would definitely recommend.

Lectures are not really worth it, 95% of the time he just read the slides. It is definitely attainable to get an A with extra credit but you have to put in a fair amount of effort. What threw me off was his accusatory, borderline aggressiveness talking about questions we got wrong as a class or something. A little weird but didn't make or break it.

Galimore provides great examples that apply to concepts (examples will be questioned on midterms). Does a great job of teaching BUT failed to provide feedback for midterm 4 and the syllabus quiz is REALLY annoying for no reason.

Lectures aren't honestly very helpful but they are enjoyable to attend and sometimes you get extra credit from going. If you do practice questions and read the textbook you should be fine. Professor is very fun and tries to give a lot of opportunities to bring your grade up.

Mixed feelings on Gallimore. His tests were fair and easy to study for since he posts the slides for each chapter, which contain all the things to know for exams. His lectures are super pointless though (just playing games like kahoot the whole time). Just take good textbook notes and study hard for exams.

You have to teach yourself a lot in this class to do well. He does provide a lot of resources, which is nice, and a lot of extra credit which really helps because exams can be quite difficult. Definitely recommend, but be prepared to put in a LOT of work.

I would recommend taking this class with Professor Gallimore. I was nervous to take a statistics course because I heard bad things from friends about how hard they were but Professor Gallimore makes it very simple and understandable. There is a lot of extra credit to help boost your grade as well. Put in the work and you well get an easy A.

Accessible: scheduled office hours, piazza for general questions, available after class Extra credit: 5% curve with extra credit, easy to get especially if you do it early in the semester Grading: clear point system allows you to calculate your grade easily Great professor. Taking him again for sure. Friendly and engaging. Wants you to succeed.

I took intro stats for psych students with Prof. Gallimore and thought his teaching style made the topic super approachable (I'm not a math person)! I had to attend all the lectures to get the concepts, but I did not do many of the out-of-class readings and thought the workload was very reasonable. He was incredibly sweet and I highly recommend!

Easy class, final grade curved by about 7% if all extra credit was done. Gallimore was not very helpful with most material. Games were only played during lecture, and he even called out a student who was struggling on piazza. However, the TA, Spencer, was beyond amazing. Prepare to teach yourself all material until hell itself freezes over.

I did not learn much from this professor as he would not lecture or teach in class. I often felt like I wasn't sure what to study or review as he did not allow us to look over exams or review. I found he has quite a temper and was often rude to students who asked questions. I don't recommend taking this class with this professor.

Gallimore was a solid professor. Extra credit is huge in his class, as is the homework- both pad your grade considerably. The piazza incident the other reviews mention seems pretty consistent with his behavior, he can be condescending at times but is usually pretty helpful and accessible outside of class

Wasn't a bad class at all just had to teach yourself. That being said, the Piazza incident definitely gives his rating a big hit. Overall if you like teaching yourself it's an okay class but be prepared to do a LOT of outside class work.

He's an horrible professor, he doesn't know how to teach and uses very little technique when he "teaches". His class is just a memorization class, that can be passed if you have a photogenic memory. He's very unhelpful and confident about his information, which usually makes no sense. I think he should be re-evaluated as a human with a doctorates.

He constantly copied word for word from the PowerPoint. I doubt that he never prepares for the course content, and he does not even know some of the chapters well. Also, he does not teach anything during class, so do not expect to learn anything from his in-person lectures. Please avoid his class!

At first he was okay--he seemed like he cared and wanted us to succeed. The content was fairly digestible, but by the end, he basically gave up. Made us read research articles and provided "supplemental" videos that copied them word-for-word with nothing else. He literally banned me from Piazza for asking a question. Avoid this class at all costs.
