Students who want to learn and earn an honest grade appreciate her. Those who want an easy grade are angry and post to sites such as this.

She gets a D- for subjective test and quiz questions. Basically it does not matter how much you study because her questions are relative to her opinion rather than the facts. She should just use the test from the text book. Some of the dumbest people I know get A's on her exams while some of the smartest get C's. Your grade on the tests will depend on how lucky you are minus how close the grade of the luckiest guesser is to 100.

Positive:

Shows a love of teaching

Shows a great knowledge of subject matter

Comes to class organized

 

Negative:

Is a bad professor

Would not recommend this professor

Expectations are unclear or lofty

Overly difficult tests or assignments

Her lectures are often unclear and many times confusing. I remembered one class period we had one of the weekly quizes and no one knew about it. She preaches to give constructive criticism, yet publicly denounces students that make mistakes, no matter how small. She likes to believe her class is one of the most important ones in the school of business, but in reality this class emphasizes the little things that are important and is not worth this much time studying them.

Positive:

Is challenging

Involves students in every lecture

Has enthusiasm in the classroom

 

Negative:

Is a bad professor

Would not recommend this professor

Confusing or hard to understand

Expectations are unclear or lofty

Overly difficult tests or assignments

Notes/lecture is confusing

Makes class too challenging

Poor sense of humor

Professor does not relate to students

Worst professors I've ever had!

She can be very nice, but her tests, assignments, etc. are way way too tough. Not too mention she will never admit that she is wrong. Even if she is wrong, she's still right. She likes to make fun of students as well, so be warned. I managed a good grade, but only after some amazing curves. Oh, and btw, a 92 is a B, 69 is an F, etc or something close to that. Good luck if you take her, you will need it, but with enough work and luck, you can get a very good grade.

Positive:

Is challenging

Is willing to help students anytime

Shows a love of teaching

Shows a great knowledge of subject matter

Negative:
