Opinion: 3320 - Dr. Blandin is super intelligent and 100% knows what she's talking about, but her lectures are very boring and hard to pay attention to. They are 70-100 slides each with mostly pictures and wordy definitions and examples, but they are digestible if you take your time after class to study. Her exams are fair but lengthy, around 50-75 questions each. 3 exams total, 1 dropped, for 33.33% of your grade, final for 33.33%, 1 writing assignment that is made for everyone to get a 100 which is 16.67%, and the quizzes which make up the remaining 16.67%. I personally loved her as a professor and she is super nice and loves to meet with you during OH, but it's very hard to learn in class by itself. The textbook will be your best friend for this class and you cannot pass without it. Her class is not hard, but 1 bad grade on an exam can hurt you detrimentally due to the weight of each. Would recommend personally, but can understand why others may prefer another professor for L&B. - Grade In Class:B+

Opinion: 1306 - I loved Dr. McLoud as a person, but not as a professor. His lectures are hard to comprehend and often go into random tangents, and he is not specific at all about what may be on the exams. His exams and quizzes are all application based so it's hard to study for them as he doesn't provide much practice or supplementation. The quizzes are dumped on you with little warning and were often 3-4 quizzes due per week, around 30-40 questions each. The saving grace is that every exam was curved and none were particularly hard, and he has an exam activities section which is 30% of your overall grade and most everyone will receive 100 in that. His syllabus is extremely easy and forgiving, you really don't have to get A's on the exams to even get an A in the class. Super nice guy, but is not a great teacher. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 3304 - Super great guy and loves talking to his students, made Spanish fun and his syllabus is really easy. All exams and quizzes had averages in the 90's, and there really is no reason why you won't get an A (I got a B because I turned in the project late which was 20% of my grade and I got a 55 on it, not his fault). - Grade In Class:B

Opinion: 1401 - She is the most hype and fun teacher I have ever had! Definitely take her. The class is tough if you do not have prior Spanish experience. There is homework before class everyday. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 2303 - Dr. Carpenter makes accounting fun and this is an easy class as long as you keep up with the work. Everything builds on what you learned previously so be sure not to get behind. Other than that highly recommend and this class is required for all business majors. There are not any surprises when it comes to Carpenter. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 3306 - Dr. Featherstone is a very knowledgeable professor and teaches at a much higher level than he tests. If you get lost in class, do not worry as he posts all the possible questions (25) for each test (10 of the 25 questions are chosen). Also, he grades on a curve meaning at the end of the semester all grades are bumped up. Highly recommend taking his class as you learn a lot about Econ. Pro tip: go to office hours and ask him the midterm questions you are confused about (take my advice on this). - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1301 - If you live in Allen/Dawson and decide to take the leadership class, please take it with Harrington. She makes the class super engaging and fun. Overall as long as you do the reading and put some effort into the projects, should be an easy A. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 2321 - Dr. Ryden makes Calc 3 easy and fun to learn. However, he does show up to class 5 minutes late each time and is sometimes all over the place in lectures. His lectures are always on the white board meaning that if you miss class there most likely is no recording making attendance crucial. HW is optional so most days I had no work outside of class (I used the homework to study for the exams which worked well). Highly recommend Ryden for Calc 3 if you have to take it. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1350 - Professor Lapes is the BEST teacher for 1350. All business majors will have to take 1350 so definitely take it with Lapes. He makes excel super easy to learn and he goes over the assignment with the class. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t get things right away, there is definitely a learning curve with excel. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 2406 - It was a class. I can tell that Dr. Mansell is working on being a better teacher, but the class feels like it is sort of messy in its layout. While the labs themselves are some of the most fun you will have at Baylor (If it's like how mine was),the class itself was brutal. The best way I can describe it is that you are being told to do assignments on information you were never taught, without a rubric. Grading also takes forever, but he does grade very fair. The exams are fine, they're about 4% of your grade each, the final is 8%. The kicker to this class is that a 94 is an A. If it was a 90, I would. not have worried near as much, but the 94 makes it so that you cannot let off in that class for a day. If you're a chem major, good luck. Everyone has to go through it. - Grade In Class:A
