Opinion: BUS 1350 - MOST HONEST RATING- Most embarassing college story for me, on her first exam she gave us 4o minutes in I had to rush out of the classroom because I got super sick and while I was outside leaning into a trash can she called in a sub and immediately came up to me and told me I needed to go back to my dorm and rest as much as I needed and she'll give me a retest. I told her I wanted to tough it out, which may have been a mistake because I got a 60 on that exam, which is ultimately why my grade is a B. Other than that, I did very well. But in that moment, she was incredibly gentle. And after that exam, I had no fear asking a question or visiting office hours, cause that was truly my most vulnerable moment. Ancira is kind. I am uncertain why people on BU Books say otherwise. I just finished my first year at Baylor and had Ancira as my professor for Excel. Here is the fair warning: this class is challenging! Almost all of the homework will take a couple of hours to complete, while some may take 45 minutes, and others may take 4 hours. The tests are also challenging if you don't do your homework, yes, that means using ChatGPT. DO YOUR HOMEWORK. If you are a student who is just looking to get by in the class in the easiest way possible, she might not be the most excellent option. But if you are like me and decide to attend a $200,000 university to learn. She is genuinely the best professor. You are basically forced to know the content to pass the class. She does a fantastic job explaining the content in class if you pay attention. It won't be easy at times, but overall, if you pay attention, you will understand how to apply it. I am currently wrapping up a summer internship at a manufacturing company, where they utilize Excel extensively. This is a crucial class for business majors, and I highly recommend Ancira for those looking to learn the material. If you would rather slack your way through, Ancira is not for you. - Grade In Class:B

Opinion: eng - way too liberal and progressive for Baylor. He is a stain in Baylor's Christian image. He needs to be fired, as his beliefs do not align with Baylor. He needs to go to a liberal school where his beliefs are accepted. - Grade In Class:C

Opinion: 2310 - I loved her. She was very helpful and supportive with my assignments. The workload is really light for a summer class, and she is what I thought, a pretty easy grader. If you complete your assignments, I don't see how one could fail her class. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1605 - It's not a bad class; she is just not the best teacher. She would constantly freak out if you weren't writing something or listening or looking at her, and sometimes she would yell because you were doing one but not the other. She just has a very sporadic teaching style, and I didn't take her again. It's an easy course to get a good grade if you actually try; I just couldn't handle the teacher. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1306 - I actually enjoyed her as a teacher. One thing to note is that she teaches very, very fast, and I don't really think I learned anything during class, so definitely prepare to teach yourself most of it. Her tests SAVED me, though. They were kind of hard, but you got 2 attempts, and the second attempt only gives you back what you got wrong, so it's really, really helpful. I would take her class just because of that perk. The class is hard in itself, so I'm not gonna blame her for all the remembering I had to do. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1301/1302 - I took him both semesters, and I loved him. I wish I could take him for all my chemistry. The class is difficult, so you just really need to try, but he does notice if you are doing good. I personally never went to office hours, and he still knew my name and was really friendly. I've heard people don't like him because he's "mean," but he is just informative and will get his point across no matter what. He complimented me for doing well in his class, and it made me feel really good. I 100% think this should be your first choice if you can, and it is a good starter. if you can get behind his learning style. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: HIST1300 - I loved him! History is no where near my favorite subject, but he truly made it enjoyable! He offers new perspectives you may have not heard before, however that does make it somewhat controversial. The way he conveys his message came across very well to me, but I think the controversial nature of how he teaches this class explains some of the other reviews. He tries to look at history from all aspects, even considering the "villains" point of view. He does have somewhat of a heavy courseload - however in my opinion the reading does not need to be in full depth as you just need to know the basics of what was written. So, while the readings daily seem like a lot it's not detail specific so reading isn't super necessary. He gives exact rubrics of how he grades and is very fair in my opinion, so I would recommend taking him. Does depend on your style of learning - his tests are fill in the blank, but no tricks whatsoever you just have to memorize names and places. His pop quizzes are just a summary of what you read. Pretty straightforward, but if memory isn't your strong suit maybe not the best class. Overall Dr. Wingerd is a very intelligent man and changed my perspective in many ways and I would recommend taking him even with the workload concerns. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1310 - 10/10 highly recommend! Dr Burnett is a very nice guy that loves teaching, and the class had a very manageable workload. There are open textbook online quizzes every week, and he drops your (5?) lowest quiz grades. Kyle, a grad student, holds test reviews that are extremely helpful, and he does a great job of answering any questions you have about the test material. There isn't any hw or extra readings that you have to do, and this class was a breath of fresh air compared to my other more time consuming classes. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: QBA2302 - I genuinely don't know how people are fooled into thinking this guy's a good professor. His slideshows are extremely fast and don't help at all, the weekly workload is insane, and all 3 exams are done before the end of March. None of my friends that took QBA2302 from other professors had these problems. Even after meeting with him in person several times, I didn't feel confident about any of the material he had given us to study. Attendance is obviously mandatory, but with how poorly he explains the material, and for how often he gets sidetracked, it really feels like it shouldn't be. A week before I dropped he mentioned that over half the class had dropped within a month, and it wasn't a difficult decision for me to make. - Grade In Class:DROP

Opinion: ECO2306 - He knows how to make a really easy class really hard. Lectures and slideshows aren't very helpful, but talking to him during office hours helped a lot. Workload was pretty light, but exams are in person so it definitely takes a lot of studying to do well in this class. I would definitely recommend taking someone else, but if you have to take him, watch a lot of youtube videos. - Grade In Class:C
