So this is my first semester in gradschool, everything is new, i dont even know what im suppose to study on. There are no exams, but all projects and readings. On top of that, im 23, everyone is about 30 and in the prime of their careers, so talk about being intimidated. Now, i dont know if i like the professor, he acts like a ******** up there. He said it himself, he is not an ACADEMIC but a CONSULTANT. I dont know.... he just doesnt feel like a professor, more like a sales man. On my other class, the professor was great, so I thinking its probably not adjustment on my part. So im wondering if I should risk my GPA and suck it up.. or drop him and find another class. I cant believe the college hires professors that doesnt have real people skills... Brains are good, but you need to personality to deliver it... He is like a walking textbook to me.

If there is another professor available, then drop the class and take it under the other prof. You should be able to change classes if you just started the semester.
Otherwise you'll just have to live with it.

in case you interior the time-physique for dropping without penalty or in case you do not choose this actual class, then you rather would evaluate it. even although, there are continually going to be human beings we don't love and we can't continually ward off them. think of of it this manner--that's an rather, very small element of your existence--some hours a week for sixteen weeks. faculties do not continually hire for his or her human beings skills. particularly oftentimes, they are employed for his or her credentials or different reasons. Many professors, enormously at grad college, are working experts, not professional instructors. there is an advantage to this considering you could learn from their genuine existence reviews. a similar applies on your 30-year-previous classmates, you could learn from the failings they have already achieved and errors they have made. they may be worth listening to and you'd be able to make a powerful touch which you could use later.

Go to the head of the department and talk to them about your concerns with this prof.
If that is not an option, and you are able to take another class, take another class, that prof isn't worth it.
I had to re-take a class in grad. school because the prof. was a jerk and said I lied to his face when I didn't and had all of my class and other prof.'s backing me up.
Good luck with the prof. situation.

Suck it up. Like if this is the only teacher you will have in your life, consider yourself lucky. Life is what it is about.
