Opinion: 4341 - This is one of the most challenging courses I have taken at Baylor, I regret taking this class. She made us do so much work, and I barely learned anything. The final was a disaster, and I learned absolutely nothing from the lectures. The slides weren\\\'t helpful when it came to the test. I should have taken Jonklaas. I would\\\'ve been better off. - Grade In Class:DROP

Opinion: 3331 - Dr. Zinke is a pretty funny and sweet guy. His tests are a bit rough but nothing he would not have taught you. Do well on your quizzes, neglecting them won't hurt you too much but doing good can really help you. There is 1 drop test and quiz use them wisely. Overall, you will have to put in a lot of work outside of class but I'd prefer him to anyone else. - Grade In Class:B

Opinion: ME 4349 & ME 4356 - Dr. McErlean is an expert in his field with an awesome teaching style. He's a fun older gentleman who is kind and considerate to his students and his quick wit always makes class fun. His lectures are mostly PowerPoint based and he posts them on Canvas but I'd recommend not skipping and showing up just to get to know the guy and listen to his humor. There are three "quizzes" (read: exams) that are open-note, open-Internet and he gives you a day and a half to do them. There are also homeworks for each lecture but they aren't difficult - for 4349 we did a problem or two twice a week through McGraw-Hill Connect, and for 4356 they were simple problems to be done on paper and submit through Canvas. Don't underestimate this kindly gentleman's knowledge, though - he's an Air Force veteran, a former NASA engineer, and has worked on almost every warplane with an F- designation since the 1950's. I highly recommend taking one of his classes - it's an experience! - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: I&M - You're going to hate I&M at first. You're going to hate Greer at first. Realize up front that it's not his fault that he teaches a hard class and it'll save you a lot of tooth gnashing. It's a ton of work right from the start (DO NOT TAKE WITH JR OR SR DESIGN!) but you'll find your groove by the middle of the semester and by the end you'll appreciate the class for the practical things you learn. Greer himself is an interesting guy - he kind of phones it in near the end of the semester (also gets more chill) so keep that in mind. His MathCAD exams are pretty easy as long as you've actually been doing the work on the labs (and not just the memos, actually learn how to use MathCAD because it's an awesome software for other classes as well. Strengths and Fluids come to mind.) His Practicum requires a lot of study but you can do well as long as you commit to learning all the instruments, the LabVIEW, and the memos. Basically, when splitting up work with your lab groups, try to do everything at least once. It's an uphill fight but you'll make it, and remember - Greer's not a bad guy, he's doing his best with a tough class. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1305 - Although Dr.Adams herself is very knowledgeable, easy to approach, and friendly, the way she teaches and this class is all over the place. She utilizes Prezi for her slides, which are usually filled with paragraphs of information. If you learn in this way, then this class will be no problem. However, if you do not learn well in this way, you may have a hard time retaining information since it feels like reading a textbook during every presentation. Keep in mind that I am a psychology major and had previous knowledge and research experience, and it was hard to keep up with all of the information sometimes. She does give you study guides for exams, but she does not go over a good portion of the needed content in the guide in class until review day. On review day, she rushes through the list and often gets frustrated when students don't answer. However, we are not able to answer when she does not go over the content. In addition, she often forgets to go over units and waits until the day before the exam to go over a bunch of sections. She is a very intelligent person, but I would recommend taking her only if you're an upper-level psych student and not for 1305. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: REL 1310 & 1350 - Dr. Moseman is amazing! He taught with such a passion and care that I added a religion minor (formerly a student he didn't care about religion at all). By the second week of classes he memorizes everyone's name, and he knows you both inside and outside of the classroom. He's the only professor who has ever made me feel seen as a person. I wont lie, his exams are hard. But he takes all of his questions directly from the power point. So if you actually study, you'll be fine. Highly recommend. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1407 - I literally loved. Loved. LOVED. Dr. Ferraro and his class. As an anthropology major who's looking to go into bioarchaeology, I thrived in his class. Some people complain he talks fast, but I think thats to each their own. If you can't keep up with faster-paced speakers, you simply won't do as well in college and lecture-settings. Lab was so so fun, I had Lyndsay and she was the greatest, but I know the other lab professors are all super awesome as well. This class definitely prepared me for going on the SGARP Baylor Archaeological Study Abroad trip (you should all go!) in Italy. It was fun, it taught me things, and it made me so excited for my future career! - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1324 - Where do I start? I took her class here at Baylor, and then I proceeded to go across the word and dig up Etruscan and medieval Roman remains with this woman in Italy. She is an incredible professor. She truly cares about her students, and even after you leave her classes, she will always give you a wave, a smile, or ask you how you're doing in the halls if she's not in a rush from one classroom to the next (because we all know she doesn't run on Italian time). I would recommend her to every student, she makes every class enjoyable and you definitely learn something in her lectures. Cannot understate how much I love Dr. Mrs. Zori. CZ is the bomb! - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1301 - I thought she was a fine enough teacher... until I got into 1302 and got Tiziano and Boscoleo. I wouldn't recommend taking Prof K for Italian 1301 if you have another option because she doesn't teach the subject as well. I don't know how to describe it, but even just the two week long review we had of past subjects we did in 1302 helped me fully understand the concepts I was struggling with for MONTHS in 1301. She didn't offer test reviews before exams like Tiziano does (which are true blessings I love that man) so exams were definitely much harder in that class than they are in 1302. It's almost like 1302 is a walk in the park compared to 1301--I'm getting 100s or 99s in 1302 compared to 1301 where I was getting low 90s and struggling without assistance. She would call on the people who were really and truly struggling, and she wouldn't let anyone save them or help them, just staring with a little smile on her face and waiting patiently, as if they would come up with the answer on their own, despite them not knowing it (like, I admit it was their own fault for never studying, but come on, throw them a bone and give them some mercy). For lab it was always online, which is great if you don't want to actually be present and pay attention, even though she makes you keep your camera on. But this was actually a negative for me, because I would get distracted, and I don't think I got everything out of lab I could have. I much prefer in-person lab that I get now, because we play games and get snacks and just in general love Boscoleo. I would def recommend those two professors over Prof. K. Live laugh love Italian! - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: MKT 3330 - Roberts may be one of the least helpful and incompetent teachers ever. He says that he'll post lectures if he's missing class a day and never does. Also his tests are not from his lectures at all so what is the point of even paying any attention to his lectures. All the test material comes from the book which is $190 by the way and is really hard for a college student to afford. Do not take him, truthfully one of the worst professors I've had at Baylor. - Grade In Class:B
